FACTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. New Barn, Eden field, near Bury, ' 26th May, 1326. GENTLEMEN, Should be ungrateful, were I not to come forward and thank you for the almost mira eulous Cure your Antiscorbutic Drops have performed upon me. I had been afflicted for the last seventeen ^ ears with a dry Scurvy, that completely covered my whole Body wiih Scales, attended with great Heat and extreme Pain. The Scales multiplied to such a Degree, that at certain Times 1 was obliged to use Grease or Oil before I could move my Joints ; and the Bed ou which 1 lay was completely covered with the Scurf off iny' Body. Having tried all Antiscorbutic Medicines and Ointments, ns well as warm and cold Baths at all the Piacfs of Note in the Neighbourhood, without affording the least Relief, 1 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. 1 was induced to try your valuable Medicine, which 1 em happy to say gave me the greatest Relief, and before 1 had ta£ en three of your 4s. 6d. Bottles, I experienced a complete Cure, aud am now as free from Blotch or Scale as ever I was iu niy Life, and enjoy perfect Health. As the Publication of the Letter in the Bolton Express was the Means of my applying to you, 1 trust you will allow this Case of mine to go before Ihe Public, in Hopes that it may reach the Hands of the AlRicted, and render them the same Comfort I now experience. You, therefore, are at liberty to make what Use you please of this Letter; and 1 shall feel proud iu answering any Enquiries, either personally or otherwise. 1 am, gentlemen, with the greatest Regard, your obedient Servant, THOMAS HUTCHINSON. Attested by H. Cfompton, druggist, Bury, of whom iif required) further Particulars may be had.— N. B, All . etters to be Post- paid. To Messrs. John Lignum and Sou, Surgeons, Man- chester.

Imposture Unmasked. rg^ Il E progress of Merit, though frequently i assailed, is not impeded by Envy and Detraction. The aggression of ainbuscade terminates iu defeat; and conscious rectitude ultimately triumphs in tile attainment of the grand object— public approbation. The test of experience is the guarantee . of favour, and has estab- lished WARREN's 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- pa ration as the genuine article, lo 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. It becomes therefore an indispensable duly to CAUTION THE PUBLIC against life uianajuvres of Unprincipled Venders, who having no character to lose, and slimii lated by avarice ill their nefarious pursuits, aim at tlx acquisition of money through any medium than thai of honour! The original and matchless BLACKING bears on each bottle a short direction, with the signa- ture, Robert Warren. All others are Counterfeits ; and in many instances the imposition labels are artfully interlined with a different address, in very small characters, between the wore conspicuous ones of " No. 30," and " STRAND." It is earnestly recommended to Shopkeepers and others who are deceived hy 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 obloquy. WARREN'S BLACKING is surpassingly brilliant ; — it excludes damp; gives pliancy to the leather ; re- tains its pristine virtue in all climates; and, combining elegance with comfort, is an article equally of indis- pensable fashion and utility.

Paris papers of Wednesday, and the Gazette de France iri Thursday, have arrived iu due course. ') he only intelligence of interest they contain relates to tbe afr'ans of the Porte— It is stated in an. article dated Constantinople, August 7, that the Porte being iotWraed of the Treaty lately concluded between this country, France, and Russia, with a view to the pacification of Gieeee, had deteimined to resist the tfepreseutations of the Allied Powers. The Reis Eft'eudi is » ven said to have hinted, that the Seven Towers would i* e opened for the reception of the Ambassadors by whom it might be officially commu- nicated. It was known that Mrt Stratford Canning', onr Ambassador, and the Marquis do Kibeaupierre, the Minister from Russia, had received their copies of ihe Treaty referred to, but they had deteimined not to present it until the French Ambassador, Count Guillemiuot, had also received his copy, so as to enable him to join his efforts to thoseof his colleagues in diplomacy, 1? will then be seen how tbe Porte will determine to act. Little credit is given to the alleged personal threat of its Minister. New York papers have been received to the 9th ult. The accounts' from Vera Cmz are lo tbe 1st of July. Mexico is said to be in a very unsettled state, ' the Congress at fera Cruz had Ordered the new Governor, appointed by the Federal Government a?. Mexico, io depart from the city in twenty- four hours, and from the free stale of Vera Cruz iu forty- eight hours. Mr. Ef leva set out immediately. Measures are taken in most of the stales to disarm and disfran- chise the old Spaniards. The account ® from Ca'rtba- gena are to the 12tb of July. Ai that date Bolivar had set off for Bogota with 1,200 picked then, ' S he Wannebago Indians have commenced hostili- ties against the United States. They are a powerful Tribe on the banks of the Missisippi. Sonic new settlers from the United States, as miners,' immediately retired into the nearest, forts j- the navigation uf the river is interrupted. The commercial letters from New York, and generally from the United States,- are far from promising. Trade was dull in every quarter, and several considerable bouses, in Charleston in par- ticular, had been ruined by speculation. Other establishments had lost large sums, and credit was ' much injured in consequence. Sir John Wylde embarked \ Vednesday for the Cape of Good Bope. He takes with him the Royal Charter for establishing a Supreme Court in that colony. This court opens to the colonists all the advantages of on English court of unlimited juris- diction, and is composed of a Chief Justice ( Sir J. Wylde) and three Puisne Judges^ w hose appointments fiie. rendered by the Charter as. independent as any of tbe English Judges, a regulation which il is expected will in future be adopted in all the colonial appoint, rnents.

IRISH SUNDAY SCHOOL SOCIETY.— The sum of £ 19. 7s. 6d. was collected at the doors on the occa- sion of the late Anniversary Meeting in Shrewsbury. It is with satisfaction we state, that Jolm Jowes, with whose escapejfrom our Gaol on the night of the 17th of June last the public are already acquainted, was again safely lodged in his old quarters yesterday, having been brought froria Hereford by Mr. Griffiths, Keeper. of our County Gaol.— His apprehension was the result of accident;— three boys from this town,, one of whom had'been confined in the same Court of tbe Gaol with Jones, having gone into Herefordshire to seek employment in the hop- grounds, met the piisoner in the city of Hereford: he was instantly recognised by the boy alluded to, and the recognition was evidently mutual, for Jones immediately commenced running away: the boys raised an alarm, and he was followed and secured, but not until be had produced a loaded pistol either for intimidation or a worse purpose.— He was consequently committed to Hereford Gaol, where he again commenced an attempt to break prison, but was detected bvt'he vigilance of tbe turnkey in visiting his cell at night.--- When taken in Hereford, he was well dressed in jockey style, with boots and whip, and there was a spur inside his bat; so that, probably, ere this, if be had not been apprehended, some person's horse would have been his, companion for a season.—- His dress, and the following list of articles found upon him when taken on Thursday last, will lead the reader to form some idea as to his late and intended pursuits. His object in providing himself with handcuffs was, most likely,' to pass himself off as a police- officer. - Pair of brass barrelled duelling pistols, marked. " J. & W. Richards, London." . . Japanned powder flask, with powder in it. Small hunting whip, and one spur. Pair of handcuffs. A silver medal, inscribed " British Union Friendly Society, instituted 1801." Motto—" CJT- PRO SIMUS" fn the centre, Four Hands conjoined^ On the Reverse, " Jolm Medlicott, 31st May, 1801." Small pocket thermometer ( ivory), marked " Thomas Jones, 62, Charing Cross."— This instrument be appeared very anxious to destroy. A bunch of keys, a pocket- knife with two blades, and a pair of trimming scissors. He is advertised in the " Hue aud Cry" of August 25th, asa Deserter from the 64th Foot; into which be had enlisted and had been attested under tbe name of Wm. Jone3.— He is ulsoa Deserter'" frofti the 23d Foot.'-— And it appears that the persons who have been in pursuit. of him for breaking prison were on more than one occasion, almost within arm's length of the places in which he bad concealed himself. Committed to our County Gaol, Richard Broome, charged with having feloniously stolen a silver watch, and various articles of wearing apparel, out of the house of Richard Dodd, at Higley. BIRTH.

The Turkey merchants appear to be in some trepidation respecting tbe result of the negotiations pending between the European Powers and the Sublime Porte; and considerable apprehension is entertained that he'of the Seven Powers'may be tempted, in the first ebullition of his anger, to; play some of those pranks with the persons and property of Christians, for which his ancestors were so celebrated. The arrivals from Constantinople are, therefore, anxiously looked for, the amount < f European property in the penalty of the Grand Seignor's displeasure being very considerable.

HAZEt NOfs.— The greatest quantity of hazel mils ever remembered to have been seen by the oldest inhabitant of Bridgnorth, were exhibited in the market of that Town on Saturday last ; for which the price varied from 2s. 6d. per bushel of 38 quarts ill the husks, to 4s.. aud many were left unsold. The reports from the manufacturing districts are still favourable. At Manchester, some spinners can earn 34s. to 28s. per week, and more hands are wanted iu this branch. A general advance of'fid. per piece was allowed last week by the masters, to tlie weavers at Bradford. The trade of Coventry was perhaps never better than it has been during the past season. In conse- quence of so many broad stout ribbons, which are technically called lutestrings, being used for trim luing bonnets, an extra quantity of Brussa silk was consumed, and that article has therefore very mate- rially increased in price. Italian thrown silks are also said to be looking up. The buyers, we are in- formed, nearly cleared the warehouses last week of manufactured goods; uud we have great pleasure in being able to congratulate our readers on the generally prosperous state of the trade.— Coventry Herald. We are 6orry to learn that the glove trade has again relapsed into a state of great depression and difficulty, ! t will be recollected that the importation of Foreign Gloves was, for the first year, restricted to the port of London, by which a material check was put upon smuggling, and the duty being pretty rigidly imposed, gave the English maker some chance in tbe competition, but this only by the sacrifice ofa considerable portion ofhis fair profits, and the remuneration he was entitled to for risk of capital and labour. The restriction alluded to ex- pired in July last, when the ports of the country generally vvereopenedtolhe foreign article, whereby t'he security which before existed against the illicit trade and the evasion of the duty, became removed; the consequence has been, that the foreign manu- facturers, improving the advantages thus afforded them, have since inundated fhe country Willi their commodity, upon the gri ' flter part ot which, there- can be little doubt, they have paid no duty at all, and are thereby fast supplanting, and indeed driving the British maker altogether from the market, it being impossible for him longer to maintain the rivalry under such circumstances. The manufac- turers in London and the country are, we under- stand, drawing up a memorial to Government, pointing out the situation in w hich they are placed bv this state of things, aiid the consequences which must ensue to them, and to the numbers dependent oil them for employ, unless immediate relief be afforded by the prohibition of French ' gloves altogether. It is lo be hoped their representations will have the desired effect. The trial has been fairly made, aud it is clearly shewn, that the British manufacturer of gloves can make no stand against his • oreign rival with any likelihood of success, from the low terms which the latter obtains his material and labour, and other causes; unless, therefore, the boon prayed be granted, the former has the dreary prospect only before him of seeing his business completely annihilated, and Iiis means of subsistence at an end.- r Worcester Herald.

NEW MODE OF DECIMSR. ou A VERDICT,— The glorious uncertainty of the law is proverbial; veri- fied by the experience of thousands of litigious clients, and worshipped by a crowd of professional gentlemen. In the jury- room, however, it seldom happens that doubts are raised as to the quesliou of taw, it being the province of the judge to. expound our statutes; but it is a circumstance of frequent occurrence, that our juries differ in opinion as to facts, and their various bearings on the ease they have to decide. We have heard of conscientious jurors being locked up without meat or drink for 24 hours, and of some, where unanimity was imprac- ticable, being marched to the verge of the countv for dismissal; but we never till now heard of a jury making their verdict contingent upon the tossingup of a halfpenny— head or tail ! Yet such was actu- ally the case at Beaumaris oil Saturday week. In the case, Lord Newborough » . Spencer and Hughes, the jury retired, and after a deliberation of nearly two hours, finding they were not likely to come to an unanimous opinion, mutually agreed to foss- vp 011 which side tho verdict should be delivered I The toss w as in favour of the defendants! This fact was stated on affidavit, on the following court day, and formed one ofthe grounds for a new trial. At the Breconshire Great Sessions, David Price, for stealing two jacks and other articles, was sen- tenced to be imprisoned I wo months lo hard labour, — Rowland Davies, for an assault, with an intent to commit a rape, was sentenced to two years' impri- sonment and hard labour. Merionethshire Summer Great Sessions. There ulNe only two prisoners for trial ui if. is Great Sessions, both of whom were chai'ge'd with jointly stealing from Mr. Absalom Jones, of the Angel Inn, Dolgelly, a small silver cup.— The case was clearly made out against them, and they were found guilty, and sentenced to be imprisoned for two years, and kept lo hard labour. The only cause entered for trial was an aclion of ejectment, brought by William Gtyffydd Oakeley, of Plnstanybwlcli, Esq. against Mr. John Lloyil, of Feli- yglanne, near Maentwrog, and Iiis tenant jolin Jones to recover from them the possession of a house and premises on Gw vllt Maentwrug j but upon a Special Jury being applied for on behalf of the plaintiff, ihe same was, at Ihe proposal of I lie defendants, referred to John Williams, Esq. barrister. al- law. Carnarvonshire Great Sessions. There was only one prisoner tried at ihis Great Sessions, and the charge was 6heep. stealing ; be was ( under the direction of the Judge) acquitted on the prosecutor's own evidence. Twelve causes were entered for trial, which were a greater number than usual; ami the following five were tried by Special Juries:— Prees v. Jones, was an action fer a libel, in which the plaintiff recovered fit) damages. Counsel for plaintiff, Mr. Cockerel! and Mr. Temple ; Attorney, Mr. Robert Williams, of Carnarvon. Counsel fin- defendant, Mr. Attorney- General and Mr. Williams ; Attorney, Mr. William Williams, of Carnarvon. ENCLOSURE OF COMMON LAND. Trevor v. David. Mr. Temple opened the pleadings; and Mr. Coek- erel! staled, that this was an action brought by the plaintiff, the occupier of ti farm called ijchllaw- ros, in the parish of Liandwrog, in the county of Carnarvon, a tenant of the Right Hon. Thomas John ' Lord ftew- borough, tbe member for the county, against the defendant, Harry David, to recover* damages from, bini for having erected a bouse upon, and enclosed three acres of, a common called Cilgwyn, in th. e same parish, on which the plaintiff Ifad a right of. common for sheep ; but that, nj fact, Lord Nevvborough and Thomas Ashefon Smith, Esq. ( the Lord Lieutenant of toe county), who were the proprietors of Very large estates in that parish, were the real plaintffis, thev having found it absolutely necessary to institute these proceedings for the purpose of'.• preventing if possible, further encroachments ihereon, as very great injury hod been already done to their tenants b^' tbe numerous encroachments which had been going on for several years'last past, and even ti. pv. to the present moment, That a Bill had been presented in the last Session of Parliament, for the purpose of enclosing these com- mons, and it was proposed that proper compensation should be awarded So the persons who had made encroachments thereon, but that such bill had been opposed by Col. Hughes, of Kinmel Park,- he claim! nf exclusively some of the sheepwalks part of such cvm- mon. s, and also by a Committee in London ( one of whom attended trje trial) calling themselves 44 Tire-; Guardians ofthe Poor and the Protectors of the Welsh Peasantry." That if this was. permitted to go. for- ward, we should soon be. reduced to the miserable condition of our Sister Kingdom, by being dver'- Vu'u with cottages built ou common land by ehcroacliers, and universal poverty would be the couw. quX'kce. The amount of damages' he Cared nothing about, as he asked nominal damages only, which would carry costs in this ca& c ; all he craved was, that the Jury would give the plaintiff a verdict, which he hoped Would put a stop to such proceedings iu future. The Attorney General, on behalf of defendant, said' . he was willing to submit to a, verdict; with nominal damages, but hoped' the plaintiff would, take it without costs, which proposal the plaintiff rejected. The Court intimated that it would be advisable for Hie defendant to, submit. v but the' Attorney- General, for the defendant, said he would not consent to pay costs, and therefore the plaintiff proceeded with his case, Tbe occupation ofthe farm of Uehllawr- ros by the plaintiff; that it was in the parish of Liand wrog • that the tenant for the time being of that farm had at all times of the year, from time immemorial down to the present time, in right of that farm, exercised a right of common on Cilgwyn mountain ; and that the defendant had about two years ago erected, a house upon and inclosed about three acres thereof, which was still continued and occupied by him, were proved in evidence. Tho plaintiff's case being closed, the Attorney- General addressed the jury for the defendant, remark- ing that the, commons in Wales are very different to those in England. That the plaintiff claimed a com- mon right for sheep only y but he contended sheep should be located, and they in reality were. From what he could gather from the evidence, it appeared that Welsh sheep had a right to ramble upon whatever part of the common they pleased, and they loved their native pastures so well ( they were not like Scotchmen) that if they ( the Welsh sheep) were ever taken. to England, they would nnd their way back to their own country again, if permitted. As the plaintiff bad sustained no real injury, he submitted he had no rigfyt to damages. Tie would say nothing of oppression, or of poor men struggling with great men, but relied on proving* that there was no object in this suit, but to harass the defendant. Witnesses w ho had made encroachments themselves, and were then occupying them, were called for the defendant, for the purpose of- proving exclusive rights of sheepwalk on part of the common, but such proof completely failed. The Chief Justice RAISE summed up the evidence shortly to the Jury, who immediately ( under his Lord- ship's direction) found a verdict for the plaintiff- damages One Shilling ; whereupon the Judge certified lhat ( his cause was- proper to be tried by a Special Jury, and thereby allowed the plaintiff the eosts thereof. y Counsel for tiie plaintiff, Mr. Cockerell and T » 1r.

CHIRK, 17TH AEOUST, 1827. BRISTOL FA I It. [ FROM THE BRISTOL JOURNAL.] Our Autumn Fair began os usual on the 1st inst. The shew of horned cattle was limited, and consisted almost entirely of lean beasts; fat ones being scarce, sold high; great complaint of drought by the farmers from the up- country. Good horses scarce, and in brisk demand. Our Wool Fair, which commenced also on the 1st inst. closed on Monday. The trifling business done at the four preceding fairs has been so discouraging to the dealers who usually bring wools, that a much smaller quantity than usual was offered forsa! e, and the l- esult has proved as unsatisfactory as at any fair since the Spring of 1825. The attendance of buyers was slacker than we ever remember, and the prices- offered very low ; but as no advance could be obtained, they were generally submitted to. Fleeces may be quoted as worth, Mendip 8d. Down S| d, Somerset and West Country Long Wool 8^ 1. to 9d. per lb. It appears the general opinion, lhat the continuance of the present improved demand for manufactured goods is entirely dependent on low prices. Our Leather Fair commenced on Tuesday, the 4th instant. The supply of Goods was uot so large as at some of our late fairs, yet the quantity offered for sale has iu most instances been found fully equal to Ihe demand. There was a scarcity of prime heavy Saddler's Hides, and Spanish Horse Hides; consequently some little advance took place ou those articles ; a large proportion of the best Sole Leather and Skins found buyers, but at this time there are many considerable lots on sale. Welsh Skins did not support their previous price. Common Dressing Hides, and Ordinary Crops, could not be got off, even at an abatement of price, and we have every reason to suppose at the close of the fair much will remain for future markets. But little Raw Goods were offered for sale, except Spanish Horse Hides, of which a few thousand remain on hand at 6s. each.

SUSPENSION BRIDGE AT RUNCORN.— The long- contfflnpl. atod erection of a bridge across ihe river Mersey » t Runcorn Gap is now lilcely, it is stated, lo be accomplished. An act was obtained in the last session of: Parliament, for the further improve- ment of the read from London to Holyhead, and of the roa'd from London to Liverpool, in which power is given, we understand, to effect this desideratum. Mr, Telford, tho celebrated engineer, has been recently making observations on the river, with a view to the commencement of this great under- taking, The bridge,., we - are informed, , is to bs built on the suspension principle, but differing in some respects from the splendid monument of Mr. Telford's genius which unites the counties of Car- narvon and Anglesey. .. KIDDERMINSTER NEW CHARTER— On Friday se'nuight, being the day appointed for receiving a New Charter niost graciously granted by his Ma- jesrj to this very ancient borough, a full meeting of the Corporation was in attendance nt the Guildhall, pursuant to notice, duly given. The High Bailiff, Samuel Beddoes, Esq. who presided, having opened the business of the day. the New Charter was in due for m presented to him by Mr, Thomas rlallen. Solicitor, who, at tha request of ( he High Bailiff, having read it, and the requisite preliminaries having beeu arranged,: and the usual resolutions OIL such occasions entered into for the reception of the. Charier, the five County Magistrates, the Venerable Archdeacon OnsJoW, and John Jeffreys, William Lea, Abraham . . u- iier, and George Talbot, Esqrs, who are named in the Charter for the swearing into office of thc first and modern High Bailiff; ad- ministered to Mr. Feddoes the proper oaths of office, as the first nnd modern. High Bailiff', and as Alder, man and Justice of the Peace. Tlie Aldermen and Assistants afterwards took their respective oaths of office before the High, Bailiff, as did also Mr. Thomas Halle'n, the Town Clerk, and Clerk of the Peace under the New Charter. The three senior Alderroe'n for the time, being, and who, in addition to the former Magistrates for the Borough, are now for ever, as such, constituted Justices of the Peace, severally took their oaths of office. After the meeting the beilft rang a merry peal.— This Charter promises most important results to the Borough, facilitating, by such . additional number of Magis- trates, the daily administration of justice on the spot, and thus meeting the exigencies of a very increased and increasing population, and at the same timo securing the direction of au efficient police. There is a power also under the Charter for the Corporation to purchase iu Mortmain to thc extent of several thousand pounds, which will enable them to enlarge their present market- place, and thus afford to the public a most important and needful accommodation. The Corporation now consists of a High Steward, the Right Hon. Thomas Lord Foley; a Recorder, the Right Hon. Lord Viscount Dudlpy and Ward; a High Bailiff, an annually elected officer from among the Aldermen, and who, with the last precedent High Bailiff, is a Justice of the Peace; a Low Bailiff, twelve Aldermen, exclusive of the High Bailiff, the thrSe senior of whom are also Justices for life, twenty- five Assistants, and a Town Clerk and Clerk of the Peace ; there aire also' Constables and cth'cr officers. After the ceremony at the Guildhall, the Corporation partook of A sumptuous and well arranged dinner, provided by Mr. Godfrey, of the Lion Inn, when several appropriate toasts were given, and the evening was spent in the utmost conviviality and good humour. fSteceUaiuotia IntjUtgcntf. IR. ELAND.~ A dreadful riot took place at Drog lieda Fair, on the 29th ult. in consequence of the country people refusing to pay certain tolls, and Mr. Nicholas Whitworth, a merchant residing there ( who had been previously under recognisance to keep the peace), was committed to gaol by thc Mayor, on a charge of exciting the mob to riot. AH order of ( he Privy Council in Ihe Gazette of Friday, directs that Inspectors shall he appointed and weekly returns made iu Ihe folhm- ing Cities and Tonus, for the purpose of ascertaining Ihe avcra « e price of corn and grain sold within the united king- dom uf Great Britain and Ireland, under au Act of Ihe 7th and 8th years of the present reign, viz. Uxtnidge, Hertford, Royston, N > rlhiimplon, Leices. ler, Nottingham, Worcester, Coventry, Birmingham, Reading, Oxford, Wakefield, Warminster, Newark, Leeds, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Haddington, Dumfries, Dundee, Dublin, Cork, Waterford, Sligo, Limerick, and Belfast. Il appears, that although ihe quantity of Foreign Grain admitted into home consumption, since Ihe first of July, has been great, it has not exceeded the demand. Since that period, 390,000 quarters of oats have been entered, nf which all, except about 10,000 quarters, has been delivered for consumption. Of barley, the quantity entered has heen 92,000 quarters for consumption, and Ihe stock at pre sent on hand is only about 35,000 quarters. The -> tock of beans in lhat time has been reduced from 29.881 quarters lo 2,49fi quarters, the importations being only 7,236 quarters. The stock of wheal, on the 1st of July, consisted of 260,889 quarters— the importations since, about 60,000 quarters; of which Ihere have beeu delivered for home consumption, 170,000 quar- ters, leaving on hand, Ihe 1st of this month, about 150,000 quarters. The slot h of all soils of grain, except rye, was not so great, bv nearly one half, ou Ihe 1 si of this month, as on the lit of July, notwith- standing Ihe importation. It is estimated that government will have received as duties on various kinds of grain, the sum of £ 400,000 during the present quarter. At the Lancaster Assizes, on Friday last, William Robinson aged 34, was found guilty of the murder of his wife, Ellen Robinson, at Claughlou, and was sentenced to he executed ou Monday last. The total amount of Stock now standing in the names of the Commissioners for Ihe redemption of Ibe National Debt, on behalf of Savings Banks £ 7,833,359, three per cents, and £ 0,903,229, three a d a half per culls. LANCASTER ASSIZES. DARING G. VNCJ OF HIGHWAY ROBBERS AND BURGLARS.— It has rarely happened that such a gang of desperadoes has been, found in one family, as in the instance we are about to record, consisting of a father, two sons, and a son- in- law. Their' crimes, as charged, are as under :— William Ilayworth, aged 00, Robert. Hayworth, 23, George Ilayworth, 18, and John Jackson, 31, were indicted for a highway robbery oil the person of Thomas Smith. To this they pleaded guilty.—• The same four were again indicted for a burglary in ( he house of John Fielden. To this they pleaded guilty.— William, George, aud Robert Haywoith, were again indicted for assaulting Joseph Crabtree, • on the high way. To this they pleaded guilty.— Robert and George, for assaulting and robbing Wm. Whatmore, on the highway. To this they pleaded not guilty; as they did totvoliiie charges against them, in the! cases of Whittaker and Taylor.— The same two wcr - again indicted for two burglaries in the house of Benjamin Sayers on the 3d, and again Oil the 15th of March. To this they pleaded not guilty; and George Hay worth was again indicted for assaulting Edward Kershaw, on the highway, to which he pleaded guilty. Iu the whole therd were nine indictments against them.— Jackson was admitted as King's evidence, before the Grand Jury, but not before he had been brought into Court, aud Informed by the Judge that his so doing would not screen him from the oilier cases in which he was charged.— Mr Justice Bayley implored the prisoners to plead not gu'My, that they might have every pos- sible chance. They, however, continued their pleas as we have given them. The cases in which the prisoners had pleaded not guilty were then entered upon. They disclosed circumstances of great atrocity, the prosecutors having been dreadfully beaten with bludgeons, after being robbed. Al! the offences were committed in the neighbourhood of Bacup and Tedinorden.— Ver- dicts of guilty were returned in each case.— His Lordship then proceeded to fulfil his painful duty in the most affecting manner. He advised them to seek Goo, who alone could extend mercy to them, A father, sixty years of age, with his two sons in the blodtn of youth, had committed offences almost unheard- of in number. The forfeiture of their lives must inevitably be the consequence.—[ As his Lord- ship proceeded, the prisoners repeatedly exclaimed, " For CHRIST'S sake have mercy upon us."]— In the whole there were forty- nine witnesses iu attendance to give evidence against them. On Monday, the 3d inst. a man of the name of John Thompson, aged 56, was convicted at Lancas- ter, for stealing a horse at Ormskirk, on the - 20th of January last. In his defence, the prisoner handed a written paper, which stated that he was a uative of Scotland, aud had served his Majesty in the army for eighieen years; and that he was wounded at the storming of BadajoZ, at the battle of Vittoria, and at Toulouse; hut he said nothing about the: offence with which he was charged.— Immediately after his conviction ( in compliance with the recent law in those cases) he was seized on a charge of murder in the County of Chester, and put in'custody to be taken to Chester assizes to answer to the charge. Handcuffed and ironed, in the custody of a peace officer, he was placed on the coach, and on his arrival at Preston, just before the stopping of the coach, a » if determined upon self- destruction, he threw himself hea ilong upon the pavement, but without much injury; and during his stay at Liver- pool, he gave renewed indications of his purpose.-— From these palpable exhibitions of a design of self- destruction, it might reasonably have been expected that the p:- ace- officers wlio had him iu custody would have guarded him, but either bis ingenuity or their remissness led to a catastrophe which, while it satisfies the calls of retributive justice in the culprit, leaves unexplained the murderous act.— In his progress from Liverpool to Chester, Thompson was embarked on the Birkenhead steam- packet, and, however ineffectual his former efforts might have been to terminate his existence, he- here found oue to his purpose. Nearly about mid- channel, he con- trived, on pretence of convenience, to get to the edge of the packet, and threw himself overboard intothe river. All attempts to recov- r the unhappy- culprit, though every effort was made, proved inef- fectual, The weight of his irons was alone enough to sink him. The crime for which Thompson was on his way to Chester was, the murder of a worn in of Compstall Bridge, near Marple, Cheshire, for wliich a true bill was found by the grandjuryat the present assizes. The history of the tragedy is briefly this. The culprit was au overlooker at a factory, in which the victim, who was a m. iri ied woman, was employed; they had a criminal inter- course, which was suspectcd by the husband. The latter charged her with the offence; and it did not appear she denied it, hut promised her husband the crime should never be repeated. Thompson m. ide frequent subsequent attempts upon her; she re- sisted : iu revenge for her non- compliance, he. way- laid her near the canal, inlo which, after indicting- mortal wounds, she wasthrown. AH these circum- stances were ready to be proved by from t-. ve. ity to thirty witnesses, who came to Chester on Tuesday morning, but who were released from their attend- ance on the evening of that day, when the intelli- gence arrived of Thompson's having expiated hia crimes in the Mersey, instead of upon the gallows.

Under this title, an interesting- volume of lal^ s in prose has just made its appearance-, in which the author bus availed himself largely of the ancient Welsh Triads and Legends. The stories are inter- spersed with occasional pieces of poetry, introduced by the personages who figure in the respective tales; and of which w e subjoin a specimen :— SONG OF THE RED- CROSS KNIGHT. I There came a knight from Palestine, as brave a knight as e'er Adventured forth for glory, or for the love of Lady fair; Foremost in tilt and tournament, he loved to break a lance With the gallant spears of England, or the chivalry of France: The red cross on his- burnished' shield, had lost its glowing' tint, And deeply dyed in Moslem gore, assumed a sable print; But his azure'plume wasdancing with the zephyrs of theplain. As he pricked his noble war horse o'er tbe fields of Aquetaiue. it " Oh why such speed, oh why such speed, thou valiant Red- Cross Knight1? . . • Art thou bound for deadly battle, or tbe fields of mimic fight, Where the blaze of beauty dazzles, and the merry minstrels And the po'intlessspear is broken for the ruby and the ring? Or doth some wild adventure in a far and foreign land, Implore the certain succour of thy never- vanquished hand 1 Or art thou hurrying onward with the chivalrous design Of fulfilling- pledge or promise to our Lady's holy shrine]" III. •• Nor battle field, nor mimic fight, nor promise, pledge, or vow, Nor perilous adventure doth demand my presence now : But my lady- love awaits me, in her perfume- breathing bcrwer, Herself the Rose of Beauty, its most captivating flower.— I have seen the vaunted daughters of the proudest Moors cf Spain, And the fairest maids of England v but they cannot equal mine : Nor li ves there lady - love in France, as many a kniglit can'tell, May contest the palm of beauty with the lovely Isabel. .

The Literary contents of the forthcoming Volume will be composed, as usual, of a great variety of original contributions 10m the fust writers of ihe age; including productions from several pens not hitherto engaged in publications of tbis class. In the spring of the year 1813 a piece of good- luck fell to my lot which might have made me an object of envy among the oldest foreign residents in the Turkish capital. 1 had an opportunity of penetrating into the inner apartments of the Seraglio, and of having a pri- vate interview with the Sultan. The circumstance may appear so incredible to those who are acquainted with ihe rigorous etiquette of the Ottoman court, and the particulars of that occurrence are in themselves so interesting and so fresh in my memory, that 1 shall proceed to state litem for the satisfaction of my readers. A native of Geneva had brought to Constantinople, for the purpose of sale^ a gold enamelled vase, about a foot in height and wide in proportion, which, through a mechanical contrivance of great ingenuity, produced on its surface,- upon the touch of a spring, a lively and interes'ting scene, A tree quickly unfolded its branches, and two birds sitting on one of them began singing and shaking their wings. At the. foot of it sat an old woman spinning,- and a man playing on fhe flute; and at a short distance from them a girl was dancing to the tune ofthe liute, and a goat was feeding. The whole sud- denly closed of ii se If when the spring chain was spent, and fell into iFire vase, the cover then resuming its place. Tlie price asked for tbis plaything was so ex- orbitant, that' no private individual could have thought of purchasing it. It was, therefore, as a last resource, proposed to the Sultan, who expressed a wish to see it, and fixed a day for that purpose. The question, as to the right of exclusive property in this article, had been in dispute between the Swiss and his partner, and the authority to which its decision Was referred, had' required that the vase should meanw hile remain in deposit at the chancery office of some foreign embassy. The director of this office was appointed lo be the header of the vase to tlie Sultan, and fo exhibit its powers before him. He was a particular friend'of mine, and,-- as he did hot understand Ihe Turkish language, he proposed that 1 should accompany him,' as much for nVy aniuseuiefit as for tiie purpose of standing interpreter for him incase ol" need. An officer from the Seraglio called for; sis al the appointed time. We enibarked in his boat at Top-' haune, and were taken round the Seraglio point to ail entrance about a mile beyond it, which we found to be at ihe extremity of the Seraglio gardens. We walked leisurely tip the delightful avenues of orange aud lemon trees, at' I hia' time iu full blossom, and spreading a most, delightful' fragrance all around. The spaces between the numerous avenues were tastefully laid out in flower- beds,' bordered witli niyrtle, or rose- bushes covered with roses'. 1 had often heard that the gardens of the Seraglio were laid out in the English style; but it occurred tome now, that'if the studied, efegaut, and rich style which I found them could be imitated in England, tliey would, hi that country, very likely have received the descriptive appellation of some enchanted scene in the Arabian Nights. Our progress was sud- denly arrested by the appearance of a Bostaugee ( super- intending gardener,) Who came running towards us, and agitating his arms in a manner which our conductor appeared to understand the meaning of at once. He hastily took botli my companion and myself by the in a manner dragging us along with him out of the path we had been' pursuing/ and concealed us be- hind some shrubbery, where, out of breath, lie informed that the Sultan was" coming down the avenue we had just left. A few minutes after, we perceived him, in fact, walking quietly and by himself, with his hands behind his back, from whitfli were hanging, according to the. Eastern custom, a string of teiiiie beads, consist- ing either of mother of pearl, or real pearls. It was nearly twenty minutes after he was out of sight that some pages, coming towards the spot of our conceal- ment, informed our guide- that we might proceed With- out u the risk" of falling in again wiih'tbfe Sultan. We finally reached a heap of small buildings', resem- bling a cluster of summer- houses more tliart a regular habitation, and at the door of which we were given in charge to some white eunuchs, who conducted ds tbroUgh two small anti- chambers to a spacious inner apartment, in the middle of which we were left to contemplate at leisuie and by ourselves tbe magnificence by which we were surrounded. An extensive sofa covered with white satin, thickly embroidered with gold and pearls,* ranged round three parts of this hall. At e^ ual dis- tances upon the sofa, were spread, in a careful manner, different coloured satin pelisses, lined with the most costly white ermine. From this peculiar circumstance we judged that we stood in one of tbe Sultan's principal sitting- rooms. The wainscot and ceiling were thickly covered with gilding, and tbe floor was laid out iu small squares of variegated marble, mosaic- like, but appearing to have no particular design. All round the room, about half- way between the floor and the ceiling, there was a species of gallery, not unlike those often used in our large libraries, but so inclosed by gilt lattices that the persons in them were totally invisible to those below. Hence we guessed lhat the Harem was close at hand, and that the gallery communicated with it, and was reserved for the women whom the Sultan wished to become spectators of any particular exhibition at which it was " necessary that men should he present. We concluded, therefore, that we should soon have the honour of being in their immediate presence. After waiting here nearly half an hour by ourselves, a small door behind us, opposite to the entrance through which we came, was opened, and the Sultan entered alone, and advanced with a quick step towards ns. He asked us if we spoke Turkish, and on my bowing assent, he said that the Sultan had sent him to see the exhibition of a certain box he was told we were to bring with us. Guessing from this that he wished us to appear not to know him, I explained in French w hat he had said to my companion, adding—" C'est le Grand Seigneur, mais lie paroissez pas y faile attention." The SoHan, on this, looked at me with such an expression, of intelligence in his eyes, as to remind me of the means he had of becoming acquainted with the French language, and of con vincing me that lie had understood what 1 said. However, we soon proceeded to unpack the article, of which my friend was the special bearer, in doing which we heard light footsteps of a great number of persons entering ( he gallery above ns. From an involuntary impulse of curiosity I looked up two or three times, and the Sultan said to me, in a half- smil- ing to tie, u Take care that the Sultan does not perceive that you are looking that way, because he may be angry." lie seemed much pleased with the mechanism of the vase, which he took up and examined closely, and relative to which he asked us several questions:,; he made us wind it up twice; the last time he look ii away with him through the door by which he had entered. Immediately after, the gallery was hastily evacuated, and from this we judged that its inmates were called dow n to see the object at a more convenient distance. The vase was sent lo us by a eunuch three times to wind up, and at last brought with the message that the Sultan declined tbe purchase of it. We were then conducted to a small aud neat apartment, uncon- nected wilh tbe building in which we bad u exhibited," and desired to sit on a sofa and rest ourselves. A small, low Turkish table was soon after brought and placed oil the sofa between my companion aud myself, and a variety of dishes followed, of which we both partook with excellent appetite, our numerous attend- ants serving us with particular attention and in silence. Immediately after the conclusion of the repast, we were led back through the way we had come, to the gate at the extremity of the gardens, and here left to embark bv ourselves in a boat which had been provided for us. Whilst we were in attendance in the Sultan's apart- ment, I was strongly reminded of an occurrence which took place some years before, possibly in the very same room, during the reign of ihe Sultan Seliui. Au Italian, named Restorini, who had been Bvffo Conlanle to a theatre formerly existing at Pera, being d civ en to bis wits' ends for means of supporting exist- ence, pitched upon aii expedient, the success of which promised to be productive of considerable profit to him at the expense of Turkish credulity. Seliui was known to be an amateur of Fiank exhibitions, especially of the sort in which music had a prominent share. Restorini found means to inform him that he had just arrived from Italy, having a marvellous Bear iu bus possession which played on the piano- forte with superior skill. The Sultan expressed his wish to hear the performance ofthe wonderful animal ; an instrument was therefore sent to the seraglio, and on the appointed day a boat was sent and took the Italian with his bear to the im perial residence. Tbe animal stood on its hind legs, and played sevcial Turkish airs with a precision and taste which delighted the Sultan, who sigfiuied his readiness to purchase it for a liberal price. Poor Restorini had not foreseen the possibility of any pro- posal of this sort being made to him, and his embarrass- ment may lie easily imagined. He expressed, however, his regret at being unable to comply with the Sultan's desire, and to every increased sum which was offered him he remained firm in his refusal. The Sultan at last was driven out of patience, and ordered his attend- ants to take possession of the bear, and pay ihe owner of it a handsome sum for tbe compulsory sale of it. In the execution of this command the attendants met, of course, with violent resistance from the supposed bear itself, on whose back blows soon fell in such abundance as to tear a part of its skin, through which the flaps of a man's coat immediately protruded itself. The whole skin, on this discovery, was instantly ripped up, and both the showman and the late bear, now a man, re- ceived such a profusion of blows as sent them to keep their beds several weeks, and to repent of their impu- dent imposture, with no other remuneration for their trouble than the consolatory reflection that their puishment had nol been so severe as they might have expected upou detection. The particulars of this adventure are so well known to, and have been so often related by, the inhabitants of Peia, that their fame has made them travel as far as Paris, where they came to die knowledge of Monsieur Scribe, the facetious writer of the Theatre des Varieles, who has founded upon them the farce entitled UQu* s et le Pacha, which was attended with the greatest success on its coming out, during the carnival of 1820.— Neiv Monthly Magazine.

The conduct which Mr. O'Connell pursued the other day, at the meeting of the Church Missionary Society, in Galwav, showed as clearly as many olher acts of his, how well qualified llml geiltlWliau is to perform the part ofa chainpioli of freedom, and fo lead ou 41 six millions" of people to the t( march uf intellect " The soctely iu question is one connected Willi the Established Church lor the Conversion of tiie heathen, and ihe dissemination uf the truths of Christianity iri the East.

The privilege of deliver- ing his sentiments was granted as a matter of courtesy, upon which Mr, O'Connell said that " he was advocate for Missionary Societies, hut they were not such societies as this They were lo he Ihe societies of the Holy anil Infallible ihurch, against which ihe gates of hell should not prevail—( hat Church, w huse members were united uuder one head." Thws, then, Mr. O'Connell declares himself to he a friend to Mis. sionary Societies, hut liiey are tu be the societies ol' the holy and infallible Church — thai is, ihey are to he " part aud parcel" of i he system of ihe Church of Rome — all others he denounces, and will not extend to ilietn the toleration which he demands fur his own. This is a fine specimen of the sort of " religious liberty," fo which Mr. O'Collliell is so Zealous. We have Often The London papers of the end of last week re- ceived here the beginning of the present week, contain documents demonstrative of thefact that the Acropolis of Alliens was surrendered through the treachery of its defenders.

The Gazette de France of the 3d inst, contains an article from Smyrna, dated lire 4lh of August, which, as il regards the feelings of Ihe Turks towards Russia, must he deemed of some importance.— A great vie lory is staled lo have heen obtained by Ihe Persians over ihe Russians ; and the sensation which the news of Ibis event produced at Smyrna, it is observed, may afford a tolerable correct notion of the irritation of the Turks towards the Christian Powers leagued against them, most particularly Russia. In the market- places, Ihe streets, and the coffee- houses ( says the Smyrna communication) w- e hear only the joyful ex- clamation, " Victory of ihe Persians over " the Rus- sians."

From noticed acts of his which indicated rather the agent and tool of priestcraft than the advocate of liberal ilistitu tioits. This is au unequivocal avowal of ihe narrowest and most intolerant bigotry. If such language had fallen from the lips of a fanalical Piiesl we would not have noticed it; hut when the member of a liberal profession— one who cails himself a champion of civil and religious liberty, gives utterance to such unchari- table absurdities, we cannot conceal our disgust at finding the pretensions, of the Patriot connected with the sentiments of the Monk. If a Protestant Banister had intruded iuto a meeting of Roman Catholic Clergy- men with Archbishop Murray at their head, and so conducted himself as Mr. O'Cuntlell did among Pro- teslaul Clergymen, and in the presence of a Protestant Archbishop, what nil outcry there would have been raised frum one end of Ireland fo the other about the u indecent and persecuting spirit which such a proceed- ing betrayed." But Mr. O'Connell cau prostrate his intellect, in the blindest submission, at the feel uf his own Clergy, and consider it a very spirited and manly thing, not only lu refuse all respect, but to violate even the ordinary rules of good bleeding' towards the Cler- gymen uf every other persuasion. When he lays aside Ihe wig and gown of Ihe lawyer to commence statesman, he generally makes sad work of it— as witness his speeches about the forty shilling freeholders, and the pensioning of the Roman Catholic Priests— but when he adds to his legal and political trades that of a religi oils polemic, he is still more Unfortunate. Iu this sort of contention, lie has neither know ledge nor skill, and uncovers all the infirmities of the Roman Catholic system, which it has always been the policy of ihe more judicious priests of lhat system to wrap up in some ingenious disguise in those countries where they could nol wield ils terrors against all who questioned its infallibility.— English ( Jitroniete. BIBLE AN ECOOTE.— During the lale war, a French officer who was a prisoner upon his parole, met wilh a Bible; he read it, and was so struck with its contents, lhat he was convinced of the folly of his irreligious principles, and became a serious character. When his gay companions ridiculed him, he remarked, I have done no more than my old school- fellow Beruadotte, who is become a Lutheran." Yes, he became so, said his associate, lo obtain a crown.— u My motive," said the enlightened officer, " is the same; we only differ as to place; bis object was to obtain a crown iu Sweden,— mine to obtain a crown in Heaven." There are now between three and four hundred English lace weavers settled at Lille. There are also a number of English machine- makers at work ; foi though the manufacturers could not get our machines over easily, they found 110 difficulty 111 getting over the men to make them. Formerly, considerable quantities of lace were manufactured here by hand. The girls who wove it got, upon au average, about half a crown per week. Our Nottingham lace makers were enabled, however, by their machines, lo undersell them considerably, even in tbe French markets. Our travellers are becoming aware of Ibis circumstance, and fewer, consequently, are now duped to smuggle over from France English lace for their wives and daughters. The manufacturers at Lille will soon, 1 am sorry to say, he enabled lo supersede our lace in many of the continental markets. I con- versed wilh some of the English weavers, and they informed tne lhal Iheir wages were getting lower iu proportion as the natives were learning the use of the machines. One man of Iheir number, whom they pointed out to me, got 8s. per diem by extraordinary labour from six o'clock in the morning iintil eigh o'clock al uighl, but on the whole they admitted lhal few of them did better, and many of them nut so well as Ihey would have done al home. The machine, makers at present get high wages. One was instance who gels £ 1 per day, bul, after the manner of ou best operatives, he can only be got lo work thre days in Ihe week. He gets drunk the other fou When there is 110 more woik for him, lie will dcublless, present an appearance of squalid poverty, and beg his way back, or return, by means of ou consul, al the public expense. Those few who ma happen lo have sober habits, and return back vvht the machines are made and the natives taught, will 1 have no doubt, tind lhat what they have got for time in additional wages, is more than taken away by the expenses of the journeys there and back. I bad much conversation with . in English lady, who hi established a manufactory iu this town, and ha about fifty French girls employed in embroidering the laces woven al her looms. She represented Ihem I be exceedingly tractable and clever. They were of those who, before the introduction of machinery, h; got their livings hy making lace with the hand in the old mode. They now, under the present demand, full three times the amount of tbe wages tlieyobtainc formerly.— Letter from Lille. The Custom- house and the corn- dealers read the bill for the admission of foreign oats differently.

THE LION OF THE NoRfn — Thefollowing auec. dote, illustrative of Ihe well- known amenity of man- ners and good nalured politeness of our distinguished ounlryman, Sir Waller Scott, is current among our w il lings. An English gentleman aud his lady lately rrived iu Ihe neighbourhood of Abbolsford, and being lalorally anxious lo behold its owner, sent a card lo him, slaling that they had travelled thither from a distant part of England solely ou purpose lo see the great " Lion of ihe North," aud earnestly requesting Ihe honour of an interview.

HYDRANGEA— The giant specimen of the Hy drangea, horleusis, after having been several times cut down, has as oflen started into fresh luxuriance, in Lord Selkirk's garden, on the beautiful domain of St. Mary's Isle. This remarkable plant, which has excited the admiration of all florists, is at present in full bloom, and measures round the extremities, as near as may be, 32 feel. It displays ibis year no fewer than fire hundred and twenty- five fiowers ; and what is, perhaps, equally surprising, several of these measure not less than two feet in circumference. The tulip tree spreading ils arms aloft, and flaulllering in all Ibe pride of summer, is undoubtedly a highly interesting object : but height is one tiling, and surpassing richness and beauty another ; and when we come to compare the splendid foliage uf Ihe plant in question, with the number, size, and variety of its flowers, we very much doubt whether ils equa lo be found in Britain.— Dumfries Courier. HORSE'S POWER.— This term, used as the name of a measure of power, is an expression which has had its origin in convenience. In its first application, no great nicety was necessary ; but as the valve of mechanical power became better understood, an exact measure, nearly coinciding with the power of a horse, and uniformity in the practice of engineers, became desirable. Mr. Watt has fixed the ele mentary horse- power at 1,980,0001 bs. raised onefoot per hour; or 33,000ib. raised one foot per ipinute ; or 5501bs. raised one foot per second. Mr. Watt further assigned a proportion for the low pressure steam- engine equivalent to a horse's power, which is 55 times the square of the diameter ofthe cylinder, ; n inches, multiplied by the velocity of the piston lis feet per minute,- aud the product divided by 33,000, the result is the number of horse's power. The advantage of steam power is apparent; the horse can work at that rate only eight hours; the engine may be kept at work as long as it is wanted. POOR RATES, & C.— The following is an extract from Ihe Report of the evidence taken before the Par iamentary Committee : — Sir James Graham, Bart, has acted for ihe last eight years as a Magistrate for the county of Cumberland : until within ihe last eighteen months he has not observed ny increase of crime ; hut since the commencement of distress among the hand- loom weavers in Carlisle and Is vicinity, crime has increased in that particular dis- rict. In ihe county of Cumberland it is universally the custom to refuse any payment of wages out of llie poor- rates ; the consequence is, that the rate of wages is higher in Cumberland than in almost any olher" agri- culturtil county. A ploughman Ihere receives at least 12s. a week ; in many cases Ihe collagers have rooms rent fice, and in 110 case dues a field labourer receive less than lSd. a day, if he be a good workman. Mr. Si urges Bourne's Act has been carried almost univer- sally into execution ; select vestries assemble regularly according to the provisions of lhat Act; neither mil ' ages are paid out of Ihe poor- rales; except in special cases, relief is refused ; and Ihe poor- rales, not- withstanding the increase of manufacturing povert; have diminished even iu the manufacturing districts' since 1819. " In llie parishes with which I am more particularly connected, as being the principal pio- prietor within them, upon the first passing of Mr. Siurges Bourne's Act, I availed myself, with the con- currence of Ihe vestry, ofa provision contained in it for raising money for the purpose of enlarging the poor- house. At thai time the parishes lo which I allude were III llie habit of paying rents out of the poor- rate ; they became convinced that this was an unwise and prodigal expenditure, and though the outlay in enlarging the work- bouse was considerable, amounting to somewhat more than £ 400, at least half of one year's rale, yet, when the work- house was finished, tliey were enabled at once to refuse relief lo all persons unwilling to < ro • here, and the number of the applicants diminished sn much, lhat in Ihe course uf iwo years the parish was re- imbursed for Ihe whole outlay; and, al the present moment, as I mentioned hefore, 110 rents are paid cot of the poor- rales, nnd 110 persons are relieved except under verv special circumstances, at Iheir ow n houses." EMPLOYMENT OF THE POOR.— The Poor- rales for the parish of Clerkcnwell, last year, or ralher ex- penditure for the poor, amounted 10 £ 19,000, while its rental is taken at £ 18,000 ; but theie is now a con- siderably improved management of the poor in such parish— so much so that in Ihe large work- house there are scarcely auy unemployed found, except the lame, the helpless, the aged, the blind, & c. All that can work are made to work. For instance, as Si. John's street is going Hie way of all streets, about to be Macadamized, the pauper men and boys are employed in cracking the slones. One of ihese pauper men, al 1 jd. per cwt. has been known to earn 18s. in a week • a boy, from 8s. lo 9s. per week ! So that in many cases the expense of paupers maybe said loresult from the badness of ihe system in shutting them up in the poor house, not providing them with work, & c, Il is, however, to he hoped that iu dry weather, Ihe said men and boys will water, and in wel weather scrape and carry away the mud of the Macadamized streets.— London Paper. The Master ofthe Rolls, in delivering, a judgment, a few days before his rising, made Some strong ob- servations against the practice which prevails in some cases in the Court of Chancery, of one Soli- citor being concerned for both parties in a cause where their respective interests are conflicting; and observed that he as much regretted that such a practice was allowed to exist, as he was surprised that any respectable solicitor should place himself in a situation where it was impossible for him to do his duty towards both parties. His Honour said he was aware that gentlemen of the bar had declared it as their opinion, that such a practice was not disadvantageous to suitors in certain cases where the suits were understood to be " amicable;" but he, for one, saw strong objections to it, and should never cease to reprobate it as most improper and mischievous. The shares in the Liverpool and Manchester rail- way, after being at 0 per cent, discount, are now at a premium of about £ 25 each. This is not to be wondered at, when it is known that the Darlington and Stockton railway has so mnch increased the travelling in that district, that the duty on the stage coaches between these two places, which before the opening of fhe railway aaiouuled only to £ 15 per annum, now yields £ 150; and that instead of 10,000 tons of coal being conveyed yearly on the railway, as was calculated when it was first opened, 12,000 tons have beeu carried upon it within the last two months. Very great progress has been made in the works of the Liverpool and Manchester railway during the present summer. About one- third of the excavation of the tunnel at Liverpool is now finished, and in twelve months from tbis date it is expected that this stupendous part of the work will be com- pleted. The embankments, both at the west and at the east end of Chat Moss, are proceeding very suc- cessfully, and the road over that great morass is made with so much facility, that Mr. Stephenson, the engineer, has deehired, that he wishes the whole line was Chat Moss. Five years was originally mentioned as the time for executing the whole work, but it is probable that it will not exceed tour years. — Manchester Herald. The " rot" among the Joint- stock swindlers spreads wider every day. Those men who con spired to produce so much misery to others are now, in general, as wretched in their situation as their morals are infamous. Several of the ringleaders, who laughed at the laws as only made to restrain smaller knaves, and imagined there was 110 such thing in the world as Divine justice, now find that there is even for the most fortunate guilt a day of retribution. What a figure do persons of this class almost daily make in police- offices and in insolvent debtors'courts' What fraud, imposture, and com- plicated villainy, do their cases lay open to the public eye? Their ill- gotten pelf has melted away like an " accursed thing." They are exposed to more scorn aud ridicule than they even brought upon their victims; and there is none to pity them, whether fbey look through the grate of a prison or are outcasts and vagabonds ou the face of the earth. — LondfftX Packet. ROBBERY OF A BANKER'S CLERK.-— J. Saekett was, 011 Thursday se'nnight, fully committed for trial from the Mansion House, charged with Stealing a pocket- book, containing bills of exchange and olher property, considerably exceeding £ 1000, from Mr. Sharp, a clerk in the house of Hankey and Co. Mr. Sharp was surrounded by the prisoner and five others in Angel- court, and' immediately afterwards missed the pofcket- book. Two gentlemen passing, witnessed tire transaction, and the prisoner was taken into' custody. Oil searching him, several articles, evidently not belonging to the prisoner, and sotue money were found; but the pocket- book with its' valuable contents is missing- supposed to have been carried off by some of his accomplices. THE TOLL tte £ ft Ass.— When the late Lord Kaimes went to Aberdeen^ as a J'udge upou the circuit, he took up his quarters at a good tavern; and, being fatigued and pensive after his dinner, he inquired if there were any learned man in the neighbourhood who could favour him' with' his company over a glass of wine. Landlord answered, that the Professor of Mathematics lived just by; and the Lord of Session sent his compliments. The Professor was not only eminent ill his science, but of various and lively conversation, though he had the defect of La Fontaine and Thomson— both great poets— that of a stupid and dull appearance, before it became enlivened by wine or company. After a respectful bow, he took his seat, and looked at the fire, quite immersed in some problem he had left. Two glasses of wine were filled and drank in com- plete silence. Lord Kaimes, to begin the conversa tion, said, " I have just passed your new bridge, wholly constructed of white granite. It is a truly magnificent piece of achitecture. What may have been the cost?" " Can't say." was the dry answer of our Mathematician, who still looked at the fire. My Lord, surprised and- piqued, said, " I saw a board put up of all the tolls to be paid by carriages and animals. Will you be so good as to inform me what is the toll of an ass?" The Professor, as if awakening from a dream, quickly retorted, " I do not pretend to know ; but when your Lordship re- passes, the toll- gatherer cannot fail to inform you." Our Learned Judge started up, and taking him by the hand, exclaimed, " You are my man 1" and they began a long and animated conversation.— New London Literary Gazette. An instance ofthe beneficial result of a jury assert- ing in a respectful manner, the privilege of having an opinion of their own, occurred not very long ago. Two men were indicted for a burglary: after the counsel for the prosecution had opened, the amiable aud learned Judge who presided, addressing the jury, said, " Gentlemen, there does not appear to me any probability that a case of burglary can be made out against the prisoners, it is therefore need- lessto occupy your time any farther." " The jurors having, however, conferred together for a short time, the foreman replied, " With perfect deference to your Lordship's opinion, we should rather prefer hearing the evidence," to which his Lordship readily assented. The case went on, aud the guilt of the prisoners was proved beyond the possibility of a doubt. After the verdict was returned, the Judge said, " Well, gentlemen of the jury, 1 will not say that you are better lawyers than I ant, but 1 am quite sure that iu the present instance you have proved yourselves to be better judges."— Tbis was conduct honourable to both parties. We are informed hy a Leeds genllem''. in, just returned from Paris, thai since the application of Mr. Huskisson's principles of fiee trade to ihe silk manufacture, the improvement in our fabrics has been so considerable that Ihe tables are now com plettly turned, and instead of Frcuch silks being smuggled into England, English silks, iu quantities, are uow smuggled into France.—. Leeds Mercury. DOVER, AL! G. 29.— The following- curious robbery was discovered to have taken place here this day. On the arrival of the Sovereign steam vessel, Capt. Haywood, from Boulogne, the officers of the Cus- toms perceived a person of gentlemanly appearance, one of the passengers, who they suspected of having contraband goods secreted under his trowsers ; he was, therefore, requested to return into the cabin of the vessel, where he underwent a search, and a bag of gold, supposed about 500 sovereigns, was found fastened around the lower part of his leg. He trembled much on being searched, but said he presumed that gold was not subject to a duty, and that he had secreted the mouey from fear of being himself robbed. He had not left the vessel many minutes before it was discovered that the bag had been lately taken front a drawer in the vessel; and though immediate pursuit was made after the thief, he was not discovered. The loss, it is feared, must fall on the owners of the vessel. Another great fraud has been discovered al the Custom House. A considerable quantity of Opium has lately been exported on which the whole import duty of 9s. per lb. was returned. O11 searching a large parcel entered for export, it has been disco- vered the whole was pipe- clay and saw- dust. At the Tipperary Assizes, on Tuesday, Patrick Walsh was tried for the burning of the Sheas; but the Jury being unable to agree, they were dismissed.

CAPTAIN PARRY'S EXPEDITION.— A letter, dated Hammerfest, April 24th, 1827, from one of the crew of his Majesty's ship Hecla, speaks with the greatest confidence of their ultimately attaining their object. The writer, previous to this expedi- tion, was fourteen years in the East India service, and consequently apprehended he would not be able to bear tiie cold; but it seems his fears were ill- founded, for the sharp air had the effect of making him not only look, but feel, quite young again. He speaks in the highest terms of Captain Parry, whose only study is, he says, to make his men comfortable. Noue of the crew has had. any salt meat yet, the beef that was shipped at the Nore being quite fresh. They term it " a fine full- belly voyage." The Lapland ladies paid the ship a visit, and appeared highly pleased. There are but few inhabitants, and one of them is a Scotchman. On the 24th they had their rein- deer alongside, aud their water filled for sea. TUNNELS.— In the present rage for tunnel making under rivers, it may not be altogether uninteresting to our readers to know that the subject is by 1) 0 means new, and that our energetic and active countrymen have taken the lead in this as well as in other similar great enterprises; for as far back as the year 1809, in consequence of the dangerous navigation of the river Severn, a tunnel was projected by a few spirited individuals under thai river, at Newnham, and was actually commenced, aud was continued with con- siderable energy, and advanced under the bed of the- river, a distance of 978 feel, with every prospect of ultimate success; bul, unfortunately, the contractor had undertaken if for too low a price, and, foreseeing nothing bat ruin, if he was compelled to continue il, chose ralher to fail ; the water, consequently, in a short lime stopped all further progress. This tunnel was 13 feet high and 12 feet wide, and had it been completed, of which there was 110 doubt, provided it had been continued with proper funds, it would have been of the greatest service to the adjoining populous districts ; besides the above, olher attempts were made under the Boyne, in Ireland, and the well- known trials under the Thames, previous to the present, all of which have failed for want of funds alone, which should be particularly abundant for this species of uncertain and hazardous undertaking. His MAJESTY'S CAMELEOPARD.-— This superb animal, Ihe only living one ever brought to this coun- try, seems loenjoy its location in Windsor- park. The animal, in ils native country, browses upon the topi of trees, but it can without inconvenience change its regimen for any other vegetable diet. The one now irt Windsor is fed principally on mixed grains, ground w heat, barley, and its drink is milk night and morning. This change in' ils natural habits originates iu the man- ner in which it has been brought tip. Having fallen into the hands of some Aiabs, who had 110 olher food to offer it but the grain on which they fed their camels, and the milk which tlicy procured from the females, it accustomed itself to it, and has not now a wish for any other. IT, however, eats willingly fruit and Ihe tops uf branches, especially of the genus mimosa. This aiiinial is about two years and a half old, and is a present from Mahomed Ali, Pacha of Egypt, who obtained it as a present from the Go^ vernor of Sennaar. CIRCASSIAN WOMEN.— Van Halen concurs with all other travellers in his report of the consummate beauty of the Circassian women:—" We observed' two women looking out of a balcony, and earnestly beckoning lo us. We entered the house, aud saw in' the court two Russian grenadiers, who, by a mistake of their corporal; had taken their quarters here, and whose presence was the cause of Ihe inquietude mani- fested by Ihe two ladies, who,- with an old man, were Ihe only iuhabilants of the house. Whilst the soldiers were explaining these things lo us, they appeared at the lop of the stairs, and again renewed their invita- tion by violent gesticulations. Ou a nearer approach, we guessed hy their age that they were mother aud daughter. The former, who still preserved much of the freshness and beauty of youth, wore very wide frowsers,' a short tunic, and a veil, which fell in graceful fohls on her back, while rouud her neck she had some valuable jewels, though badly mounted. With respect 10 the daughter, who was scarcely fifteen years of age, she was so extraordinarily beauti- ful, that both my companion and myself remained awhile motionless, and struck with admiration. Ne- ver ill my life have I seen a more perfect form. Her dress consisted of a short white tunic, almost trans- parent, fastened only at the throat by a clasp. A veil, negligently thrown over one shoulder, permitted part of her beautiful ebony tresses to be seen. Her trowsers were of an extremely fine tissue, and lier socks of Ihe most delicate workmanship. The old man received us in a room adjoining tbe staircase ; he was seated on the carpct, smoking a small pipe, according to tbe custom of the inhabitants of the Caucasus, who cultivate tobacco. He made repeated signs to us to sit down, that is to say, in the Asiatic manner— a posture extremely inconvenient for those who ( like ourselves) wore long and tight trowsers, whilst the two beautiful women on their side earnestly seconded his request. We complied with it, though il was ihe first time that either of us had made the essay. The ladies, having left the room for a moment, returned, with a salver of dried fruits, and a beverage made of sugar and milk ; but I was so much engaged in admiring their personal attractions, lhal I paid but little attention to their presents. Il appeared lo me an inconceivable caprice of nature to have produced such prodigies of perfection amidst such a rude and barbarous people, who value their women less than their stirrups. My companion, who like myself was obliged to accept of their refreshments, remarked to me, whilst Ihe old man was conversing wilh them, what celebrity a woman so transcendantly beautiful as Ihe daughter was would acquire in any of Ihe capitals of Europe, had she but received the benefits of a suitable education."— Neiv Monthly Magazine. THE HOLY CITY OF BKNARES, IN INDIA.— Tradition and mythological history would make 11s believe thai Benares, or Kashce, was a most ancient and a most holy place, that it survives in age a hundred lives of Brahma, each of whose days is 4,320 millions of years : that it stands upon the trident, or tirsool, of Mahadeo, never shaken hy earthquakes, nay, that the whole town was once of pure gold, which only dwindled into stone and brick along with the rapid deterioration of human virtue. Only 600 years ago, however, there was but a mud village, bearing the name of Benares, which has gradually bettered ils materials into brick and stone. From the Persian historians, il appears, thai during the invasion of India by Mahmood, of Ghazuee, a Rajah Bunar held possession of the old fort, aud town within il, which was totally destroyed aud plundered by the General Musood, in A, D. 1020. It was again plun- dered by Kutuboodecn, in 1193. At both periods, it is staled, thai immense treasure was found, and many idols destroyed. I11 the reign of Mahomud She ( 1730), Munsaram . Zeminda, obtained from that Emperor the Snnuud of Rajah, iu favour of his son Buiwuud Sing, together with tbe establishment of mini and courts of justice. The Man tnundil, sup- posed to be the oldest building now extant, was erected hy Man Sing, iu 1550, aud the astronomical instruments were added by Jey Singh, in 1680. NoS twenty years ago, Benares contained, hy census, 650,000 souls, 30,000 houses, of one lo six stories high, and 180 garden houses. In general, each story of a large house is rented by a separate family of numerous individuals; the census sets down 200 inmates for a house of six stories, Benares is famous for its Ghauts, and the wonders of Kasltee are sum- med up in these words—" Ranr, Sanr, ourSheerhee, x> which may be translated " Belles, Bulls, aud Broad Stairs 1" For Complaints of the Stomach aud Bowels, which so frequently prevail at this season ofthe year, either from excessive heat, or partaking too freely of fruit, vegetables, & c. no medicine has beeu found more efficacious than Dicey's Genuine Daffy's Elixir, which may be purchased of most respectable Medi- cine Venders either in town or country — Particular care should be taken to ask for DICEY'S Daffy's Elixir.
