DROPS are Shropshire, and ' BHIE PLOUGHMAN'S so well known throughout indeed throughout the Kingdom at large, for tbe 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 ; thus 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 AlHiciion of the Body arising from a changed or vitiated System, the PLOUGH MAN's DROPS may be relied upon for a certain and speedy Cure. N.

They communicate fhe arrival, in that Cityr of the Right Hon Frederick LAM be* our Ambassador at Madrid, Who is ou ' his way to England upon leave of absence. Ferdinand had certainly quitted Madrid for Catalonia. It is said Ferdinand was accompanied by Don Carlos, which is rather strang- e, as the rebels have assumed iVe mime of Car lists in opposition to his brother, whose legitimacy has no weight with the insurgents. The' French pa'peis of Tuesd& y contain further d- taii's OH the state of affairs in Catalonia. The rebels are fortifying IVlanresa the best way they can. They have summoned without effect the fortress of Gerona.- . Tarragona had nearly fallen into their hands, and General Monet with difficulty had reached Barcelona through a hostile population. The Freuch troops observe the strictest neutrality between the eoiif- endkig factions, but refuse all communication with the rebels. The demands of the insurgents are said to be— 1st, the possession of all the fortresses-, secondly, a war with Portugal; and thirdly, fhe re- establishment' of the Inquisition. •— King Ferdinand has certainly left Madrid for Catalonia. A t a Quarterly General Court of Proprie tors, held on Wednesday at the East India" House> a grant of £ 20,000 was voted to the family of the Marquis of Hastings, in aeknovv ledgineut of the services ren- dered to the Company by the late Marquis, in India ; and also a pension of £ 1000 per annum to Sir A. Camp belt. The Leeds Mercury of Saturday says—" The differences which have unhappily arisen in the Methodist . Society in .. Leeds, regarding; the intended erection of an organ in Brunswick Chapel, to which we have before several times adverted, are assuming a formidable aspect. At the local preachers1 meeting on Monday last, the superintendent of the circuit came to the determination to suspend one of that body, on tlie ground"' that he had faken an active part in calling meetings to oppose the'decision of Conference, in consequence of this suspension nearly the whole of the local preachers have resigned their office,. and it is apprehended that a large portion of the congregations, both in the east and west Leeds circuits, will, to- morrow, be left Without preachers, about seventy of, the focal* preachers having already, resigned, and the whole number in the plan not exceeding eighty."

Captain Parry has returned after another un- successful attempt to discover the North- west passage.— After suffering indescribable hardships, the gallant adventurer reached the 82d degree 45 minutes of northern latitude, thus approaching- wilhin 435 geographical miles of the Pole; and going-, wc believe, nearly six degrees, or 300 geo- graphical miles, farther north than in any of bis former voyages; few particulars of the expedition have transpired ; but. it. is gratifying to know that al! engaged in it have returned safe. OVERLAND NORTH- WEST EXPEDITION.— The James Cropper arrived nt Liverpool on Wednesday from New York, whence she sailed oil. the 3< l Sept. liv her can,., as passengers the celebrated Captain Franklin and Dr. Richardson, who have been engaged in the overland north- west expedition.— She brings five files of papers, one of which gives ihe following- short account of Captain Franklin, in a letter dated Montreal, the 25th Aug. where be bad arrived. " He { Captain F ) came in al an early hour yesterday morning, and proceeded immediately for Ihe United Stales, lie looks well, and I understand that he has generally enjoyed good health. It is slated that he travelled front Mackenzie's river to the Icy Cape, and was within 250 miles of the spol the ship Blossom was lo hnve touched, where be remained nine days, in consequence of a fog. lie saw nothing which indi- cated an obstruction lo the navigation ; for as far as be could see at any lime on open sea was lo be seen. Oue very singular circumstance was mentioned In him, lu . January lust, when the thermometer was 54 degrees below zero, ' llie weather was more comfort, utile' than when it amended to 12, for in the latter case the chunking was burdensome." Captain Franklin and Dr. Richardson set off from Liverpool on Thursday for London.— The rest of the party, under Captain Back and Lieutenant Kendal, may he daily expected in the Orkney Islands. The expedition has been eminently successful. Captain Franklin and Captain Back, after falling down the Mackenzie river, coasted westward lo ahout 150 degrees west longitude. They met willi no consider- able indentation on tbe coast : bul il gradually tended rthwurd almost as far as lliey penetrated, lo about latitude 72 degrees 30 minutes,' » hen it seemed to run nearly west. At the furthest advance of this part of the expedition, they were about | 60 miles separated from the ship Blossom, under Captain Beachy, and had each beeu aware of ihis circumstance, Captain Franklin might have returned to England by the Pacific Ocean ; but bad they failed to meet, the season was so far advanced, that il would have been an unjustifiable hazard of human life to have perse- vered iu advancing westward. Capt. Franklin, therefore, retraced bis way back lo Gr, at Bear Lake', where they spent the last winter in the society of their friends, who, in Ihe mean time, had, under Dr. Richardson and Lieutenant Kendall, explored the whole coast between tlie Mackenzie and the Copper- lnine rivers. This last portion of the American coast is more indented with bays than the former, and both have been surveyed and laid down by the adven- turous travellers. Westward of the Mackenzie, Hie vast chain of Ihe Iloeky Mountains terminate al about ten to thirty miles from Ihe coast. The Esquimaux natives, nt first, suspicions or hostile, soon became friendly. Provisions were abundantly and liberal!* supplied by the agents of the Hudson'Bay Company- and it is most gratifying lo think that this expedition has terminated without any loss of life, and that out- gallant and indefatigable country men seem iu excel lent health, notwithstanding tlie numerous fatigues and privations which ihey have undergone. Their collections of natural history are large, especially iu the department of botany, and the science will" he enriched by several new species. Their experiments on magnetism, anil ou Ihe effects of the Aurora Borealison tiie needle, are important, and will prove confirmatory of the observations of Lieutenant Foster. € l) e Salopian ' journal. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1827. At the Meeting of the Guardians of the Poor of the Shrewsbury United District, on Monday last ( Samuel Harley, Esq. in the chair), it was unani- mously resolved, that distinct accounts of the receipts and expenditure at the House of Industry, from July, 1825, to July, 1828, and from July, 1826, to October, 1826, should be made out and published for the information of the Guardians. Also, that a detailed account of the receipts and expenditure on account of the In- Poor, & c. from October 1826, to October 1827, wilh the cost of maintenance, kc. should be furnished to the several Parishes. . It was observed, that no account of the receipts and expenditure of the House for several years had been published ; and it was explained, that the former Steward and Clerk, to conceal their delinquencies, had destroyed various documents, so as to render it impossible to make out a correct account of the receipts and expenditure during the period alluded to.— The proceedings of the. meeting were perfectly unanimous, and one feeling only appeared to exist, which was that of an anxiety to lay before the Guardians aud Rate- payers a correct aeeount of the monies expended — Messrs. Robert Morris, Henry Fitzjohn, and William Harley, were elected Auditors ofthe accounts; and it was incidentally mentioned, that the arrears on the Bastardy Account of the United Parishes had accumulated to an amount of from £ 1200 to IT300.— The necessity of public institutions annually bringing their accounts to the inspection of those who contributed the sums ex- pended, was forcibly but concisely urged by several of the Gentlemen present on this occasion. John Baker, Esq. of this town, has sold his favourite grey horse, Tippoo, into his Majesty's stud, for five hundred guineas. B1RTI1. On the 23d ult. nt the Rectory, Llangar, Merioneth shire, Mrs. P.

THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON — His Grace ar- rived at GriihStone Hall, Yorkshire, the seat of Lord Howden, on Saturday, the 22d ult. where he was received by the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs of York, who communicated to the Duke that the Corporation, deeply sensible of the splendid and important services which he had rendered to his country, were desirous to present him with the freedom of the city, and that the inhabitants generally were anxious to express their admiration and gratitude to him, and their unfeigned respect and esteem for his person and character, in an address.— His Grace dined with a distinguished party the same afternoon at Grimstone Hall,, and on the following day accompanied his noble host and hostess to Kirbv Church, where an immense assemblage was collected.—- On Monday morning the Duke entered the city of York in an open carriage and four, accompanied bv Lord llowden. A troop of tbe Yorkshire Hussars formed a guard of honour round the carriage, and his Grace moved forward to the Mount, where the civic procession was drawn up. On entering within the line of constables, the populace took the horses from his Grace's carriage, and he was. drawn with ropes into the city. The procession, pre- ceded by a band of music, and accompanied by a number of military and other flags, repaired to the Guildhall, where the freedom of the city was pre sented to his Grace in a golden box of the value of fifty guineas ; which honour his Grace acknowledged in forcible terms. The Address from the inhabitants was afterwards. presented to ti e Duke; to which his Grace replied in a speech which was followed by three times three cheers.— The Duke afterwards visit*. ed the Cathedral, and about one o'clock left York for Stockton- on- Tees, accompanied a few miles by Lord Howden.— With the dawning of the day the loyal inhabitants of Stockton were busied in making pre- parations, on an extended scale, to pay due honours to the Hero of Waterloo. Flags weie displayed from the Tower of the Town Hall, and merry peals were rung at intervals. Equipages of every description kept rolling into the town during the whole of the dav. The Bishop of Durham and the Earl Bathurst passed through tbe town in their travelling carriages and four to Wynvard, where a large party of nobility and gentry, including the Earl of Eldon, was assembled Tbe Marquis of Londonderry, determined that the Duke of Welti ng ton's reception at W. ynyard Park should be brilliant and imposing in ihe* extreme, had summoned all bis tenants to go out on horseback to meet his noble visitant. About four o'clock, upwards of two hundred of these highly- respectable mounted yeomen, with yellow and blue cockades, paraded, two and two. into Stockton from Wyuyard, followed by a band of music in military costume; bv the Marquis of Londonderry and a numerous suite, on horseback ; together with a large body of torch- bearers. The Marchioness came in an open landau, drawn by six beautiful horses, accompanied by her son ( Lord Seaham) and a lady. Lord Castlereagh arrived a short time after, on horseback, hastening- to join the procession, which by this time had greatly increased, hy all ranks pressing forward to the scene. There were, in all, about five hundred of the Marquis of Londonderry's tenantry in the procession. When they met his Grace ( who was dressed in a plain blue surtout) he alighted from his travelling Britscha, and after the usual formalities and civilities, took his seat, by the Marchioness of Londonderry, amidst loud huzzas. Soon after the horses were taken from the carriage, and the populace dragged it in triumph through the streets, io the front of the Town Hall, amidst the congratulations of the assembled multitude, and of a brilliant display of beauty and fashion, which graced every window in the line of procession. Arrived near the Town Hall, his Grace, still remain- ing in the Marchioness's carriag- e, received and briefly replied to an Address from the Mayor and Corporation, and one from the town at large!! which was presented by the Hon. Colonel Grey. About six o'clock his Grace partook of a cold collation at the Town Hall, and shortly after set out for Wynvard, highly gratified with his reception. The evening- closed with bonfires, fire- works, and other marks of public rejoicing. The Bishop of Durham, with true baronial hospi- tality, opens the Grand Hall of the Castle of Durham on the occasion of the Duke of Wellington's visit to the North ; and Wednesday, the 3d of October ( this day), is fixed for entertaining the Hero of Waterloo in the Episcopal Palace. " THE FACTION." [. Abridged from. Blackwood's Magazine.'] The Edinburgh Review, after having so long, waned against every thing sacred to British affections," and dear to British prejudices, mav now bo reo; arded as t!> e, lead- ing Ministerial publication.. Other periodicals, may take the same path— they nnv be equally servile, and, nnprincipled — but s'i 11 this< oue will be the" most faithful . expositor ofi. be principles a'nd-. in ten tions of. Government. Its leading writers, and their connexions, are ih. e Government's masters,- as well, as, menials,; ........ an { it exhibits in rich profusion the characteristics of the party for which it combats. Second thoughts tell . us, that we have here . used the term Party very improperly. Those, to who to we have given it, uniformly call their opponents u. a biise faetioo"; —" an imbecile faction"—" an. unprincipled JactioiC* & e. This would Scarcely tempt us to retort fhe term faction ; but when We look at them, we perceive , th, at^ in numbers, principles, and conduct, they exhibit every characteristic of a factionand Hfat up should be. no- justifiably " liberal" were we to gireibem a better title. Having no genius for liberality, and being excessively . fond of calling men and , thing* by their right, names,* according to the good old laws of English, nomenclature, we shall throughout our paper { five them the proper appellative. , • , Ministers, and their st'ip/ pnrfers of all denominations^ so conduct themselves, that those who differ from them must either sliow the w:, l" ld what, they . really . are, or submit to moral assassination. . When we look at the bombastic egotism and adulation with. which; they over whelm themselves, we. sjre . lost in asto. nis. li. ment. J^ says one of them, called a new world into existence — I and mv brethren are the Turgors and Galileos of the ag- e. I and my friends, jsays ano. ther, are the. only, friends of education— we are the present Loekes and New tons. ,. Evpry uieasn re of mine, says a third, is abso- lute. p? f fee t ? on.. e, says afunrth, e o i up reb en d a 11 the tal. ents._ of jhe empire,. . My political . economy, says a fifth, is positively infallible. Each thus lauds himself and bis brethren. However impotent such language may be when used by such persons as' the writers in the. Bdinburoh Re view, it has its effect when gravely uttered in Parlia- ment by Ministers and Legislators; and. the. system of the Faction, as a whole, is productive of the worst evils. I fan. individual in the House of Commons oppose the Faction's dogmas and schemes, he is not replied to with fact and argument, but he is. siloured with. sneers, deri- sion, an< l slander.:. he is charged with uttering, front base motives, sentiments which are below, refutation. After being thus treated in the, House, the. press covers him witl> every stigma that can render him the object o( public contempt and abhorrence.,, ll a writer oppose tlic Faction, a like . fate befalls him. No matter what his taleuts niay be, he.' is declared to be wholly destitute of talent; no matter liovy, conscientiously he may writej he is declared to be Wholly destitute of principle. The sentence which strips him of character, and dooms him to infamy. and proscription, falls upon him clothed with the weight and solemnity of parliamentary deliberation • and then it is echoed through the country by the Press, with every accompaniment that can render it more in- sulting and destructive. The Tories have too often been spiritless, conciliating, sacrificing people ; and they practically confirm the sentence. Each shakes his head and ejaculates—" Although 1 differ from the Faction, T assure you I do not agree With { his Member^ or that writer— I have u<> connexion with either— I con- demn both, and am only responsible for my own senti- ments." With thed, the fact, that an individual is hated and abused by the Faction for withstanding that Faction, is a sufficient cause for disowning him, and abandoning him to a state of general outlawry. They owe their ruin to this conduct, and still they persist iii it. This is the case on the one hand ; and on tbe other^ a member of Parliament, or writer, has nothing to do but to praise the Faction, to obtain a brilliant character. He may be an incorrigible dunce ; he may be a stranger to tbe Faction's principles; and wholly incapable of judging of its measures; nevertheless, if he praise it^ 44 liberal principles," and 44 enlightened system,"— if he repeat its slang, without understanding a ( Syllable — he is proclaimed to be a most patriotic, enlightened, and wise person. It follows that discussion is almost wholly destroyed. When opposition to the Faction receives a punishment more terrible than the loss of life, it is scarcely in human nature for men to offer it; when reputation caij be purchased by a little senseless panegyric, the temptation to buy it is irresistible. The Faction is therefore nearly exempted from effectual, contradiction and opposition. The Members, of the House of Com- mons who differ from it remain speechless, or they neutralise iheir timid dissent by admissions that its doctrines are true iu the abstract. Writers take the same course. The opposition , to it consists mainly of mere personal attacks and objections on the score of expediency, profusely mixed up with confessions, that its political economy, its 41 liberal opinions," — its prin- ciples of all kinds, are. in the abstract, true aud un- erring. Such opposition is naturally worse than worthless; it strengthens the Faction. The country cares but little for mere personalities; it cannot be convinced that the application of principles, which are true in the abstract, can be inexpedient; and it cannot well doubt, that the Faction's principles are true in the abstract, when they are. admitted to be so by those who oppose their application. It is very obvious, tfiat many of those who thus serve the Faction by their admissions and confessions, do it from terror. They prove by their words that they do not understand, and that they hare not attempted to understand, what they acknowledge to be abstract truths: and that they make the acknowledgment to preserve themselves from being held up to public scorn, as men utterly destitute of understanding ami principle. It is not necessary for u< » to prove that a determined stand ought to be made against this system. Private and public duly imperiously command all against whom it operates, to war against it on its own principle of— No Quarter! Ministers, Legislators, Reviewers, or others, who act upon, it, ought to be dissected before the face of the whole country — they ought to be shewn up line by line, and paragraph by paragraph, for the public to take exact measure of their intellect and integrity. What is the history of these people who call them- selves the exclusive philosophers— the exclusively liberal and enlightened-— the only people who have received education? What have they done for the empire? What reforms have they made ? What con- cessions have thev made to 44 the spirit of the age?" The Whig- and Radical part of them, during the war, fought on the side of the. nation's enemies— had their policy been pursued, the empire would have heen ruined and dismembered— they obstructed the reforms — they constantly fed the flame of rebellion and revolu- tion— they stirred up strife and convulsion, until reforms could not be ventured on, and the constitution could only be preserved by the abridgment of freedom and privilege. Looking at tbe whole of these braggadocios, their measures as a Government have been of the most baleful character ; instead of making reforms, they have filled the country wilh. evils'-; instead of correcting abuses, they have gone far towards disorganizing* society ; and they have only conceded to 44 the spirit of the age," what has operated like a pestilence on every leading national interest.

A writer in the Monthly Magazine asserts that one of the Irish Papers which professes to be the warmest supporter of the Protestant cause, is conducted by a Roman Catholic!— and it has been stated, that there are Newspapers in England, professedly opposing those who support fhe Roman Catholic interest, conducted by Roman Catholic writers'.— By such advocates the Protestant cause, and the cause of Britain, must bo well supported, truly!— How the general cause of the Country is supported by some others, aud by whom opposed, is ably shewn by an article in that straightforward and maul j publication, Blackwood's Magazine, from which some extracts will be found in another part of our Journal.— The Political E onomists and Specu- lators, who would overwhelm the country with their nostrums, may not like the plain language of Blackwood; but truth is truth, let its language be ever so direct; and be that speaks truth need care little as to the ultimate consequences—- for " Magna est Veritas et prcevalebit." NEW MALT ACT.—- Great caution must be ob- served by farmers when sending their teams to the maltster, with an order to bring back malt, to direct their servants to be sure to have with it a permit, without which the present law not only subjects the malt to forfeiture, but also the waggon and horses. No less than fifty entire horses and brood mares have within the last fortnight been transported to France and Holland, on account of the respective governments, for the purpose of improving- the breed of road- horses in those countries. His Majesty^ s ship Blanche has arrived from the Brazils, bringing news of the total ruptnre of the negoeiati. ons for peace between Brazil and Buenos Ayres. A preliminary treaty was executed in May last at Rio de Janeiro, and M. Garcia, the Envoy from Buenos Ayres, who signed the treaty ou behalf of that Republic, sailed from Rio on the 1st of June to obtain its ratification. The principal conditions were, that Buenos Ayres should relinquish the possession of Monte Video to the Emperor, and with- draw the whole of its army from the Banda Oriental, or left bank of the Rio de la Plata* thus relinquish- ing- all the. objects for which the war had been entered into. O. i the arrival of M. Garcia at Buenos Ayres, the conditions of the treaty became known ; he was universally insulted by the inhabitants, and the Government refused to ratify it. The President Rivadavia and the Ministry resign d. The English Minister, Lord Ponsonby, had a'so been insulted by the officers of Government and by the populace, and he had determined to proceed to Monte Video. His Majesty's ship Forte had proceeded up the river Plate, to protect, if necessary, the property and persons of the English residents. Amongst the private communications is one from a high ofncial source at Rio, which observes that the negotiations are entirely'broken off. The negooiations for tbe payment of the Mexican dividend were finally broken off on Friday. It is understood that several offers were made to Mr. Rocafu. erte, but the only one which appeared to be at all of a nature likely to b? accepted by the Mexican minister, was that made by some eminent merchants; of the city, to g- ive money for his bills drawn on the Mexican Government; and they pledged themselves that, if it were not convenient for the Minister of Finance to pay these bills at maturity, they would accept his order ou the Cus- tom- house in payment., viz. for duties on British goods imported into Mexico. From some motive, however, this proposal was not accepted. Mexican bonds have iu consequence again fallen consider- ably.

To the Editor of the Salopian Journal. SiRi,— My learned Friend, the Clergyman, who is passionately fond of a dish of gray ling about December, and trout in May and June, deeply impressed ( I am glad . to say) with tbe tenor and rationality of my plan for recruiting the Severn Fishery,,' hath pledged himself to contribute a sum not exceeding £ 5. 5s. upon its be. ing carried into effect. But why, adds he, 44 why mount Ibe horse without the bridle, and expect others to follow the example? why speak theoretically . and not numerically ? why give a plan without an estimate and imitation ? Do you know that in such a form it is not tangible— it is not useful, nor likely to be so. The nation — fora long time at least— hath bid adieu to mere plans and speculations, and therefore you have erred in not calculating and attaching the probable expense in executing this project of your mind, which, if not too burdensome and expensive, appears plausible and practical enough. Tbe bed of a river is most certainly primary consideration, and in a state of nature is provided with a sufficient defence : that such hath been disturbed or destroyed in the way you point out, is Emperor has not only written to the Prince, in earnest tertps of advice and exhortation, to be true to the new system, and lo preserve the chartered rights of his people, but has addressed letters to the King of Eng- land, and to some of the other allied Sovereigns, re- questing them lo exert their influence with the Infante for the same objects. Care is to be taken, that in pro- ceeding to Lisbon, he shall not pass through Spain, to receive the salute of the rebels who abused his name in the late insurrection, or to be tutored in politics by his sister, the Princess of Beira, or any of the other » > yal professors of absolutism at the Court of Madrid. On his arrival in the Tagus or before his disembarkation, he is to issue a manifesto explanatory of the Conduct which he means to pursue,— proclaiming the capacity in which he appears as Regent ' by his brother's appointment., declaring his adherence to the charter, pronouncing those rebels who resist it, and calling upon all his sub- jects to respect it as the fundamental law of the king- dom.

It seems rather strange that many ofthe best words jn our old manuscripts are judged obsolete and absurd by some of our modem Critics. This opinion, probably, exists by uot observing the primitive mean- ings of the monosyllables. which form alt the deriva- tive and compound words in the. language. If tbe young Bards, and others, who study the Welsh, paid more attention to this, it would, undoubtedly, facilitate their progress ; and instead of Contradicting our good old words, they vvould be glad lo find a few of them raised from oblivion. J. A. O. apply a stock offish ; nor do I imagine, if properly introduced, will either impede or injure the navigation of she river. Tbe appointing of guards or conservators also is in the power of Justices by the Stal. ute of Richard II. The division and increase of tbe fence months appears to me both wholesome and necessary, and lhat small mesh nets and the use of poucheous and wheels are highly mischievous and misconceived; also that, the repeal of ihe Act of 1777 would be a great and universal benefit. Your observation on the sabbath day, Legislators ( who wish their laws to be . honoured) will not be unmindful of, as the division between inoral and immoral sets out therefrom ; and thus far I will go hand iu hand with you, so that if the plan be acted on, and the river- becomes full of fish, as I expect, it will no longer be a question with me what is the principal and leading cause ; and if it is permitted to remain in its present forlorn and defenceless state, I shall still can be— as effectual as King Charles the Ninth's oath of protection to the Hugouots— as effectual as Napo- leon's engagement to restrain his ambition to the sway of his Empire of Elba— as effectual as Lord Lansdown's, and Lord PlunketPs, and Mr. Tierney's, and Mr. Brougham's pledges— never to support a Cabinet divided upon the Popish question— in a word, as effectual as any engagement opposed to his interest will be held by an unprincipled and profligate man. Aud why should it be more effectual? Has not the Edinburgh Review demonstrated that the King of Great Britain ought to violate his coronation oath in favour of the Irish apostolicals? And what right have the Papists of the sister kingdom to claim monopoly of Royal perjury to their own use? I ought lo be remembered, too, that Don Miguel 1st. Reg.

I belongs to a church which presents peculiar facilities Nevertheless, an estimated working plan I did and do | doling with an irksome oath. Such is the end of ex pee It was not my intention, Sir, to enlarge upon my former remarks ; aud as regards an estimate, I con- ceived it to concern Ihe Commiltee* to raise a Sub- scription and act according to their funds, whether or not new legislative measures were enacted, which can only materially affect tbe salmon and sea fish. An estimate and limitation, however, shall how be given, which, for the sake of arrangement, I will distribute under the following heads :— I. As to the situation, extent, and boundary of the Town Conservatory-^ or Preserve. IT. The probable expense of establishing it. HI. The annual expense of preserving it. 1st. The Town Preserve should not be less than two miles in extent, or from the steps near Doctor Darwin's garden wall on the one side to the Horse Boat on the other side of the town, w hich will include all depths of water aud contingencies. 2d. Assuming tlie river to average 80 yards in width witb. hu the Preserve ; six stones of 250 lb. each, with two sianks, one on each side ; or three tons for every hundred yards, at the rate of seven shillings per ton, freight and labour included, the expense of stoning would be £ l. Is. per hundred yards, exclusive of the twelve stanks, which, at 3d. per stank, would be three , shillings, making tbe sum of £ 1. 4s. every hundred yards so defended. But in Ihe fords and shallows, where stanks were substituted for stone, the estimate- would be about £ 10 per hundred yards. Saying, then, there were 3000 yards to be stoned, the amount, at £ 1. 4s. per hundred yards, would he £ 36 for the 3000 yards; and saying there were 300 yards lo be stanked, at £ 10 per hundred yards, the amount would be £ 30 and £ 30 added to £ 3* 6 would bring the total amount to the sum of £ 66, which sum might be collected hy voluntary contributions 3d. After tbe Work had been completed, the annual expense vvould be trifling indeed ; the conservatory would require none for years, as there would be little or no unnatural waste or loss of materials, as on tbe public roads. I am, Sir, Your very obedient servant, S. If a Conservator was nominated according to the Statute of Richard 11. the necessity of a committee would be super- seded, if they are unwilling to act. + Let any one, for the sake of experiment, take a net. and sweep the river from the top of Sheiton Ford a mile endways, and be will rarely take a fish, where, till of late, there were thousands: because the bed of the river hath been ransacked for materials for the road, and is as barren as the road itself. our iEolian policy— it is only wanting to the com pletion of the disgrace which that policy has drawn upon us, that Don Miguel should, within a conve. nient time after his return, hang up every man who has once in his life talked about a Constitution— a consummation far within the limits of probability.

LANCASTER ASSIZES. UNFAIR PREFERENCE OF CRKDITORS. Banks and Others, Assignees, v. Wardell and Others.-- Mr. Sergeant Cross stated that the plaintiffs in this action were Abraham Banks, James Battersby, and George Brown, assignees of Rowland Roscow, and tbe defendants were William Lowry, William Stanley Roscoe, and William Wardell. Mr. Rowland Roscow was a broker in extensive business at Liverpool ; at the end of the fatal year 1825 bis affairs became desperate, and, after a short struggle in the beginning of February, finding all hopeless, he be^ an to dispose ofthe wreck of' bis property. On tbe 1st of February his debts amounted to £ 30,000, and his stock- in- trade was then worth £ 6000, so that, if he had stopped payment at that time, there would have been four shillings in the pound for all. The defendants, who were his bankers, were at that, time creditors to the amount of £ 5000; and lie thought proper to transfer property to them to that amount, so that they received the full amount of their debt. He also trans, ferred £ 1000 worth of property to Messrs. Rawdon and Co. who were also favoured creditors. The commission of bank rupt was issued on tbe 18th of February ; it was a friendly commission, and Mr. Roscow got. his certificate when only thirty seven creditors had signed it, though he had in all ninety- nine creditors. He then put bis brother into his counting- house, and soon began business again, when he found no difficulty in opening a uew account with the bank which he had so much favoured. At the close of 1824 he owed tbe bankers from 4 to £ 5000, but at the beginning of 1825 lie transferied to them some valuable property in the West Indies, which would have covered the whole of his debt. They were not, however, satisfied with that; but from the 8th of February to the 17th of March he transferred to them a large ouantity of olive oil, palm oil, Messina oil, Nicaragua wood, and baryvood, to the amount of £ 5000. He had purchased, through Mr. J. B. Rayuer, in London, £ 700 worth of linseed oil, on the previous January ; and in reply to a- letter from Mr. Ray ner,- Mr. Roscow wrote on the 25th of January, saying, " Owing to the stoppage of one of our banks, I find it impossible to send j'ou cash, but will en- deavour to send it on Saturday." On the 28th he wrote again, saying that he would repay Mr. Rayner the £ 100, lost by the ue- sale of the oil, as soon as he could: he wrote a similar letter on the 2d of February. He had at this time £ 6000 in his business, and, though he Could not raise the £ 100 for an urgent claim, he transferred 5000/. worth of property to the defendants, which was manifestly an unjust preference. On the llth of February he wrote to Mr. Rayuer again, saying he feared he should uot . be able to meet the bill. On the 6th of February he also wrote to Messrs. Price and Gifford, in London, requesting them to renew a bill of 500/. as he could not meet it at that time. The very next day he began to transfer one lot of goods; they were deposited in the hands of a warehouseman, whom he directed by a note to deliver them to Messrs. Lowry and Co.; and he made no entries of them in his books. Other goods he sent to a ware- house called Rathbone's Warehouse, and these were claimed by the defendants as their property after the bankruptcy. On the 14t. li of February he issued a printed circular, an- nouncing liis suspension of payments, and soliciting that the business of his friends might be given to- his brother, William lioscovv. Oil the 15th, he sent a few hundred pounds " worth of bar wood, and, on the 17th, Messina oil to the amount of 320/ to the defendants. He should prove that these transfer's were made for the purpose of giving unlawful preference; and, if this were proved, tbe plaintiffs would be entitled to recover the amounts- Several witnesses were then examined, whose evidence confirmed the statements of the Learned Sergeant. Mr. Pollock, for the defendants, contended that there was no pretence for asserting, that the bankrupt had made an unfair preference, or that the. commission of bankrupt was a friendly one He committed an act of bankruptcy on tbe 16th February, but- every thing delivered prior to that time belonged of right to the defendants. His ( Mr. Pollock's) case was that the bankers, seeing that. Mr. Roscow's account was between 4000/. and 5000/. and being pressed by him to make provision for bill's to a large amount, insisted ou having security. He entered most reluctantly into an engagement on the 2d of February, to transfer to them goods to the amount of 3862/. ( which was the whole, except the corn in bond,) on condition that they provided for various bills then coming due, and which it was absolutely necessary to his credit lo have honoured. If the bankers had immediately seized all the property which he made over to them, there would never ha ve been a question of their right to the whole. — Mr. Baron Hulloek having charged the Jury, they turned round in their box, and almost immediately gave a verdict for the plaintiffs, saying that they believed the goods to have been transferred with a view to an Unjust preference. The damages were taken at the amount laid in the declaration, bu- fc it was agreed that the amount should be settled by an arbitrator.

PICTON.— Geupral Picton, like Otway's Pierre, was a " bold rough soldier," that stopped at nothing ; he was a man whose decisions were immutable as his conceptions were quick and effective, in all things relative to tbe command w hich he held. While in the Peninsula, an assistant commis- sary ( commonly called assistant commissary general, which appointment is equal to a captain's), through very culpable, carelessness, once failed in supplying with rations the third division under General Pieton's command, and on being remonstrated with by one of ihe principal officers of the division, on account of the deficiency, declared, with an affected consequence unbecoming the subject, that he should not be able to supply the necessary demand for some days. This was reported to the general, who instantly sent: for the commissary, and laconically accosted him with— 44 Do you see that tree, Sir ?' " Yes, General, I do." " Well, if my division be not provided with rations to- morrow at' twelve o'clock, I'll hang you on that very tree." The confounded commissary muttered, and retired. The threat was alarming ; so he lost not a moment in proceeding'at a full gallop to head- quarters, where tie presented himself to the Duke of Wellington, com- plaining most emphatically of the threat which Genera! Picton had held out to him. " Did the General say he would hang you, Sir ?" demanded bis Grace. u Yes, my Lord, he did," answered the commissary. u Well, Sir," returned the Duke, " if he said so, believe me he means to do it, and you have no remedy but to provide the rations." The spur of necessity becomes a marvellous useful instrument in sharpening a man- to activity ; and the commissary found it so; for the rations . were all up, and ready for delivery at twelve o'clock next day. The steam vessels which , navigate the tranquil waters ofthe Ohio are built of stories, aud being of vast dimensions, carry three or four hundreds of passengers, who ate accommodated with board, washing, lodging, and all other necessaries, and transported the distance of fifteen hundred miles, for about eight pounds. The upper story of these vessels is surrounded by a spacious balcony and veranda, on which passengers take their exercise, and this situation being of a considerable height, affords a view ofthe varied scenery during the pas- sage. KINGDOM OF PORTUGAL. [ FROM THE STANDARD] And to this we are come at last— we are to make Don Miguel King of Portugal; this man, whom the liberals have been proscribing as the model of a despot, as comprising in his own character the faith- lessness of Ferdinand— the craft of the Queen Dow- ager— the bigotry of Don Carlos-— the ferocity of Chaves— and whatever worse could be imagined or imputed: this Prince is solicited by the British go v. ernment lo condescend to assume the sovereignty of the kingdom, from which two years ago we caused him to be banished. But then The Times informs us :— " That every precaution has been taken to secure his fidelity to tbe charter, and prevent a re- action against its friends. On landing iu the kingdom which he is destined to administer, lie enters it as tlie Lieutenant of bis brother, with bis brother's commission, and under an engagement to support his brother's work. The WINDSOR CASTLE TAPESTRY.— The first order given by his Majesty for silk drapery of British manu- facture for the state- rooms of Windsor Castle, is nearly completed, although- hut four looms have been employ- ed upon it. It- is almost impossible to give any adequate id^ a of the richness of the manufacture intended for ( he Castle, and the best judges who Lave seen it are decidedly of opinion that it is far superior to any thing- produced in France. For tbe principal room of the suite of state apartments of the Castle, the drapery is composed of crimson velvet on the richest satin ground, and is embellished by a large tulip- figured pattern. Between the figures a space of about one inch and a half is left, and here appears the satin ground, richly corded. This forms a relief of ihe most splendid cha- racter. His Majesty, we are told, on choosing the pattern, instantly perceived that, something was re- quired to dispel the heaviness displayed by the raised velvet figure of the tulip, and suggested with exquisite taste that the satin ground should appear prominently This has been done, aud the effect which will be pro- duced, when the apartments shall have heen hung and lighted up, will be splendid in tlie extreme. The superiority of British over French manufactures of this description is strongly shewn in. this specimen. The work is cost off the loom by our weavers in the most finished manner, the raised figures being perfectly regular and smooth. The French, owing to the ragged manner in which their velvets are thrown off, are obliged ( to use a technical phrase) to shave their work, and thus get rid of the uneven surface. Of ( he crimson ' velvet, about 1000 yards will be manufactured, and the cost, at the very lowest, cannot be less than £ 4. 4s. per yard. Of this the weaver receives 10s. 0d. per yard for his labour, and weaves about a yard per day. Tbe second portion of I lie order given at present is for green . velvet, wilh a similar pattern to that above described, the ground and border being in unison with the velvet. The quantity to be manufactured of this colour is about 1500 yards; and with this, we understand, the lower portion of the state apartments are to be hung, ibe contrast between the two colours tending Jo shew with great power the beauty of each. The draperies are manufactured in looms, on Ihe French principle. This is. done iu order that ' the carded patterns used in France might be brought into action, to facilitate the comple- tion of the order. Each of these looms cost, in setting up, from £ 60 to £ 70, and by tbe use of which more than a month is saved in bringing them into the slate required for weaving. By the old English mode, to set up a loom to work the above pattern, more than 1000 lines would have lo be fixed in a manner perfectly sur- prising to those unacquainted with the art, * The French system of using cards, on which the patterns required are punctured, does away with the intricacy of the English process, and the cards, acliug upon a simple machinery, brings the pattern required without the least difficulty. The walls of Gibraltar have all been lately re- paired, and are now, perhaps, the most beautiful specimens of fortifications in the world. They are built of large stones, cut out of rock, which are extremely hard, of a whitish colour, and have ail the appearance, and, indeed, consistency of marble. The Moorish Castle, which overlooks the town, and probably has stood these 500 or 600 years, is built of brick. It bears sad marks still ofthe siege which the gallant Elliott, with 6000 men, sustained for more than three years, against the combined armies and fleets of France and Spain. It is now a prison There are about 600 guns mounted at present, and about 900 altogether could be put in activity in dttSfe of a siege. THE ROSE OF JERICHO.— This singular plant, which is found only in the deserts of Arabia, re- sembles no other in the wovld! It is about six inches high, root and all. Its tiny branches, which are extremely hard, give it the appearance of a liliiputian tree. When drawn from the earth and allowed to dry, the points of its branches curve inward until they touch in one common centre. Within the hollow globe thus formed, its numerous flowers are enclosed, which is partly the case while the plant is in its natural state. The General Court- Marlial holding at the Barracks on Capt. Widdrington, 53d Regiment, who is charged with having introduced a female of questionable cha. racier into the Barracks, and of assaulting a Serjeant ofthe llth Regiment, while on duty, continued its sittings to Tuesday last, when au adjournment took place, lo give time for the prisoner to enter on his defence. Accordingly, on Thursday last, Captain Widdrington opened his defence, by reading an ex- cellent address to the Court. He then commenced calling his witnesses, who were Officers of the Regi- ments now in the Garrison. It continued until last evening, when it closed, Major. General Sir George Bingham, on whom, as Commander of the District, the unpleasant duty of prosecutor falls, spoke to evidence, which continued until a short time before the Court rose. To- day, Captain W. will reply; after which, the Court will deliberate, and the result, with the minutes of the evidence, will be sent forward to tbe Commander- in Chief. Capt. Widdrington is the son of Lieut.- General Widdrington. It is stated that a Com t- Martial will be held on Lieut. Phillips, of the same Regiment, who was in company with Captain W. the night of the unpleasant occurrence,— Cork Southern Reporter. CHRIST'S HOSPITAL— The materials of the ancient Hall, where the students of Christ's Hospital used to dine, and which was also the scene of their studies, were sold on Thursday, by public auction, on the premises. Tbe Hall, from which all the portraits and paintings which decorated, its long and lofly walls have been removed, and which here and there was stripped of the plaster, to shew the nature and value of the materials beneath, presented a most melancholy spectacle, contrasted with its former annual splendour On St. Matthew's Day. Along the centre of the flooring of this spacious apartment, a plank had been ripped up, to shew the condition of the supporting rafters beneath. These latter were of the best English oak, and though a century and a half have elapsed since they were laid down ( the Hall was built in 1672) time had not damaged their strength and value. The premises adjoining the H- all, between it and the building known as Grey Friars, were also sold. It is not intended to remove the statue of the Royal founder, Charles II. which Ornaments one end of Grey Friars j immediately over the cloisters. The demolition of the old Hall of this venerable structure has been rendered necessary, it is said, from some fears of its stability, and a new Flail is at present nearly completed, for the purposes to which the old One was originally devoted. The new building is of the pure Gothic style, the outside faced with slabs of beautiful grey Portland stone; around tbe ground story run a suit of cloisters, supported by Gothic arches, in unison with the whole building ; at each end of the hall, which runs nearly north and south, are square towers, surmounted by dwarf spires and pinnacles. The hall is one of the most spacious in the kingdom, capable of dining 600 or 700 persons, and fully rivalling the banquetting room at Whitehall. The building will not be completed for some time. When Napoleon returned from Russia, there was no small murmuring- in the capital ; and one ofthe courtiers took upon him to inform the Emperor of the general dissatisfaction. After a moment or two of thoughtful silence, Napoleon exclaimed, " gild the dome ofthe lnvalides !"— And never was a know- ledge of French character better evinced than . in issuing this command. No sooner was the work commenced, than the Russian campaign began to be forgotten ; its progress was watched with the most intense eagerness ;— as it proceeded, all Paris was in ecstacies. " Que e'est beau !" " Magnifique !" " Superbe !" were the delighted exclamations of thousands : and when it vvas finally completed, the Russian reverses were remembered no more.— Literary Magnet. SICILY.— PALERMO — The brief notes immediately following are selected from tbe more copious notes of a few months' residence in Sicily, which we find in a contemporary monthly publication :— " It is the custom in Sicily for the highest families to send their daughters to convents to be educated.-.. Thev remain there till they are about 17 or 18 years of age* and then are taken home to he introduced to all The gaiety and amusements of the capital ( Palermo), After about a month's experience of these, their parents ask them whether they choose to continue in this mode of life, or to return to the convent, and renounce the world for ever? The latter alternative is more frequently adopied ; a resolution which it seems difficult to recon- cile with the propensities and feelings that generally actuate youth. " About two miles from Palermo, is La Favourita - one of the royal residences. This was the favourite re- treat of Ferdinand during. his exile, and here he used to 1 console himself, for the loss of his royal power, in the | pleasures of the field and of the table. It is a pretty little bauble, fitted up in the Chinese style, somelhing after,. the. fashion of the Pavilion at Brighton. One of the most curious things here is a cumbrous piece of machinery, contrived for the purpose of transporting the dinner at once from the kitchen to the dining- room, aud placing il in an instant on the table, without anv visible agency. _ The gardens abound in game. Ferdinand used lo sit before the house, and fire at tbe birds as they flew by, und so abundant was the game, that his sport or slaughter iu this way was said to be immense. " The convent of Benedictine Monks of San Martino, is situated . about nine miles from Palermo. It is of the most exclusive and aristocratic description ; none being suffered to become members of it but such as are of high birth. Its position is strikingly romantic— sur- rounded by steep and rugged mountains, which seem to form a barrier between it and the rest of the world.— The building is spacious and magnificent, and highly adorned. Not the least superb part of the establishment is the cuisine ( Ihe kitchen); a better dinner is nowhere seen, and all the accompaniments are in the highest and most magnificent style. " There is something in the way in which sermons are delivered in Italy, which strikes an Englishman as highly theatrical. I heard a discourse delivered by a blind priest, which was characterised by considerable eloquence and much gesticulation. The preacher mounted a lono- gallery, up and down which he paraded, distributing his exhortations equally among his flock. The subject was an eulogy of charity. The topic was treated extempore ; the praises of those who gave to the poor were set forth ; the inutility of laying up Stores in this world was enlarged upon, and the vanity of worldly pleasures was emphatically pointed out: " finally, the pious were exhorted to deposit, in a purse which was extended to them at the end ofa long stick, some por- tion of their worldly wealth, and thus to secure a great reward in futuro. Judging by the faint chink of the purse, I fear the discourse had not much effect on the bearers, ' i'he congregation dispersed, and probably adjourned to the theatres. " The laxity of morals at Palermo is such as to sur- prise even those who are accustomed to the absence of severity that characterises society in Italy. It is nol thought necessary lo keep up even the slightest appear- ance of decency and decorum. Public esteem is not worth having, and public reprobation there is none where all are depraved." Lord Commissioner Maynard was a very old man 1 when he waited on the Prince of Orange ( William the Third), to congratulate him on his safe arrival in England. " Sir," said the Prince, " you must have survived all the great lawyers of your time."— " I should, Sir," replied he, " have out- lived the law too, had not your Royal Highness visited these kingdoms." AMERICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH.— The interest which the members of the Church of England take in the American church must ever be greatly increased by looking upon her as a graft from their own heavenly- planted vine. This clearly appears from every authen- tic account of her origin and progress., and most satis- factorily, as well as concisely, in the life of the Rev. Dr. Samuel Johnson, President of Yale College, Con- necticut, of which an English edition was lately pub- lished by Bishop Hobart, of New York ; a work which must ever he highly valued as a record of the preference which sound learning, candid investigation, ond con- scientious principle give- to Episcopacy, even against the prejudices of early education. The history of that venerable man naturally leads to some detail of facts, which prove the inveterate hostility to Episcopacy which so generally prevailed in his day throughout North America, grounded on the supposed inseparable connexion of Episcopacy with Monarchy. During the worst of times, however, there were not* wanting those who conscientiously preferred the doctrine and disci- pline of the Church of England to every mode of christian worship which America presented, who wel- comed " the true tabernacle which God had pitched, and not man," and gladly provided for a regularly ordained clergyman a church in which he could offi, ciate, and a congregation to edify by the ministration of the Word and Sacraments. For this supply, from lime to time resort was alv^ ays had to the church of England, and from the time of ils formation to the venerable Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. And when the revolutionary war had separated the colonies from the mother country, the fostering care of the Church was still looked for and still enjoyed by our American brethren. The first Bishop of their church, indeed, Dr. Seabury, of Con- necticut, was consecrated in Scotland by the Bishops of that pure remnant of the true church, which had sub- sisted iu poverty and persecution from the time of ihe Revolution, a legal difficulty having presented itself to the bench of English Bishops. An Act of Parliament was afterwards obtained, to give validity to conse- crations at their hands, in which the oaths of supremacy and abjuration were not required to be taken ; and this having passed in 1786, two more American clergy- men, of whom one ( the venerable Bishop White, of Philadelphia,) still survives, were consecrated at Lam- beth, in February, 1787, and in 17S0 a third ; and from that time tbe succession has. been kept up by the American prelates. Thus the unabated desire of the American church to preserve her identification with her venerated parent here, and her title to thai parent's fostering care, are placed for ever beyond dispute.— The prosperous state of the American church is well proved by the addition of three dioceses in the years 1817 and 1819, making in all ten, and by the present intention of dividing the largest or eastern diocese into two. The church members in this diocese have dou- bled in number during the superintendance of the present most exemplary and pious of diocesans, Bishop Griswold. From the diocese of South Carolina, our means of authentic intelligence have been augmented by the intercourse between that diocese and the mother church, which has resulted from the publications in England of the sermons of iis late Apostolical Bishop ( Dehon), and the remittance of the profits on the three editions to the Protestant Episcopal Society, for the advancement of Christianity in South Carolina. This instance of disinterested good- will to the American church has been productive ofa corresponding feeling, and of lively gratitude lo this church and country, as appears by the feelings expressed in the printed report from the Society, where it is recorded as " an accept- able testimony to the interest taken abroad in the welfare and prosperity of their church, and the success- ful prosecution of the great end contemplated in the institution of the Society."— Christian Remembrancer. AMO, SEPT. 7.— At nine o'clock in the evening of the 4th instant, this town was visited by a dreadful conflagration, which, after raging for twenty four hours, ended vvith the almost total destruction of the place. The fire broke out in the house of M. Hellman, a merchant, whose people were engaged in melting tallow, and, to escape the penalty attached to the carrying on such a business in the town, endeavoured to conceal the fire as long as tbey could, and closed the doors. In five minutes the whole was reduced to ashes. The fire spread in three directions, and was soon universal. The cathedral is totally destroyed, with every thing it contained, the archives of the consistory, & c. Of our celebrated University nothing remains but the Observatory ; all the buildings of the Academy, with the valuable collections, the library of 40,000 volumes, the cabinet of medals, the collection of instruments, the Custom house, the Court of Justice with the archives, the Town- hall, and above 900 houses, are destroyed ; the bridge has fallen in. Only about thirty bouses have escaped, and the inhabitants, 11,000 in number, have lost every thing. —[ Abo is tbe capital of Finland.] ARABIAN NOTIONS OF THE ENGLISH.— Soon after our arrival at Muscat, we were visited by men of all ! nations and colours. I was principally attracted by the appearance and manners of some Arabs from the interior, who were brought on board by their coun- trymen to see an English ship of war. Their figures were light and elastic, their countenances expressed quickuess and energy. The most remarkable of their features were their dark rolling eyes, which perhaps struck rhe more from their wandering ra pidly from one object to another, glistening- with wonder at all they saw. A good telescope hap- pened to be placed so as to give a complete view of one of the farthest fortifications. 1 called an Arab to look through it, and he did so for about a minute, then gazed with the most eager attention at me, and, with- out saying a word, dashed over the ship's side.— When the boat he was in got to a little distance, he exclaimed, " You are magicians, and I now see how you take towns; that thing' ( pointing to the telescope) be they ever so far off, brings them as near as you like." We were much amused with his simplicity, but no arguments could prevail on him to return and receive such a lesson on optics as might dispel his delusions in supposing us to be adepts in the black art.— Sketches of Persia. We last week noticed the death of Mr. Thomas Weatherhogg, of Kirkby Moor; we have been since informed that by his will he has disposed of between 30 and £ 40,000. During his life he had thrown a degree of slight on his only daughter, who is married to an industrious cottager at Burgh in the Marsh, but he has bequeathed to her the very handsome sum of £ 10,000. His eldest son has come in for £ 10,000, and his nephew William Ashton, who worked as a labourer upon the high- way in the parish of Scremby, has received an an- nuity of between £ 200 and £ 300.— Boston Gazette HYDROPHOBIA.— In the 30th volume of the* proceedings- of the rioyal Academy of Turin, there is a very interesting memoir, by M. Rossi, one of the members of the academy, on hydrophobia and the consequent madness. The memoir is divided into two parts : in the first the author treats of spontaneous hydrophobia, without any bite from a rabid animal ; the other contains a number of facts respecting canine madness. In the first part, M. Rossi speaks of seven cases of spontaneous hydrophobia, which, with a single exception, all proved mortal. In the second part, some remarkable circumstances are related, from w hich we select the following, showing the almost incon- ceivable feeling by which animals are rendered aware of their danger when they are in the presence of any individual animal, of whatever kind, and however feeble, that is affected. A large yard- dog, freely ranging, suddenly perceived a lap- dog, and was seized with a trembling in all his limbs. This formidable enemy approaching, the yard- dog allowed himself to be bitten, and died mad. It being thus known that the little dog* was mad, he was pursued and killed ; and the inspection of his carcase completely established the fact. An analogous occurrence may also serve as a warning to those imprudent persons who leave animals shut up in their houses dining their absence for a shorter or longer time. A cat which had been confined in this manner, after four days of captivity and priva- tion of food and drink, became mad. M. Rossi intro- duced two dogs into the chamber in which was the cat. Although very strong, they exhibited the. same symptoms of alarm that the yard- dog had done, and were bitten by the cat without making any resistance whatever. The consequence of course was, that they became mad also. M. Rossi seems to consider the actual cautery as the only application to the wound resulting from the bile of a mad dog, from which any beneficial consequences can be expected ; and he re- commends that the burning should not be merely- superficial.

LONDON.— In 1821, this overgrown city contained persons bearing the following names, than which none could be more appropriate to their trades, profession, and habits, viz.:— Dunn, tailor; Giblett and Bull, butchers; Truefttt, wig- maker; Cutmore, eating- house keeper; Boilit, fishmonger; Still, Strong, RaclCem, atlornies; Whippy, saddler j Breadcut, baker; Coldman, undertaker; WicJis, tallow- chandlers; Bringlow, and Puke, apothe- caries; and Messrs. Board and Plank, carpenters. — In the Langbourn Chambers, Fenchurch- street, at the same time, four several counting- houses were actually occupied by Messrs. Sick, Pain, Deathj and Graves.— The following curious names may also be met with : Messrs. Pretty, Petlove, Pickup, Drane, Littlechild, Godsmark, Bucket, Tub, Kettle, Pott, Tiplady, Drinkall, & c,; and the following- firms : Messrs. Graves and Churchyard; Wood and Coles; Bunn, Crisp, and Fry.— Notes of a Book- tvorrn. The Dumfries Courier gives a long and distress- ing account of the death of George Walter Maxwell, Esq. of Carrachan, who was drowned when bathing, on the 4th ult. in the river Nith. It appeared that this gentleman's death was in a great measure occasioned by his favourite pointer getting upon his shoulders and the back part of his head. He was drowned at noon, within view of several persons, and not many yards from his home; his age was 22, his fortune independent, and his disposition amiable in the highest degree. He was the male repre- sentative of the once noble family of Nithsdale and Herries. LIABILITY OF INNKEEPERS.— At the Lancaster Assizes, last Thursday, an action was brought by •& commercial traveller named Kitchen, against Mr. Hill, the landlord of the Commercial Inn, at Roch- dale, for the recovery of certain bank- notes which the plaintiff had lost in the defendant's house. lie had left the pocket book in his room, and it was afterwards found in the water closet without the notes. All those who were in the dining room with the plaintiff were searched, but nothing found upon them; the landlord went out of the room, and was afterwards searched. Mr. Baron Hulloek held, that a landlord was not liable, unless there was a quasi committal to his care. The mere leaving a thing loose about, did not constitute a sufficient committal. The plaintiff was nonsuited.— London Packet, Sept. 18. It will be remembered, that a servant at the London Inn, Tannton, was tried and acquitted at the Spring Assizes for the county of Somerset, on suspicion of stealing £ 75, which bad been lost during the night from the writing- desk of a travel ler, left in the commercial room. The liability of the landlord to make g- ood the loss has since been referred to an eminent Barrister on the Western Circuit, who has awarded that the landlord is liable for the whole amount of the loss. Some attempts were made, in the course of the case, to invalidate the testimony of the traveller, but the arbitrator, at the close of the reference, distinctly stated, that not the shadow of an imputation rested on his character. LOCUSTS.— Of all the plagues of Egypt, I think that of locusts must have been the most horrible. This pest, which we had previously seen before us like a dense cloud upon the horizon, became upon our arrival in contact with it, a serious impediment to our progress. The locusts struck the faces of our horses and peons with such force and in such numbers, that they could scarcely grope their way along-. Every bush was alite with them, and in an instant, looked dried up and dead from their devas- tations. Their appearance, three or four feet above the ground, resembles corn under the actiou of the wind when glowing in a meridian sun. A scene in the morning, rich in verdure and bursting- into blossoms, is at night a dreary, profitless, hideous waste.— Capt. Andrews' 1 s Travels in South America. It may be important lo traders and others inlo whose hands biils of exchange and promissory notes puss, to know, that by a recent decision of the Court of King's Bench, where a bill or note is ma. de payable at a particular place, the words " payable at & c. must follow immediately after the word 44 ac- cepted," and precede the signature of the acceptor 5 otherwise the onus will lie upon the bolder or party uing on the bill to prove that the words 44 payable at & c. were actually written by ihe acceptor, or with his assent. Important to Tradesmen and others— We have reason to know lhat the universal evasion of the duty on receipts has compelled the Commissioners of Stamps to take active aud prompt measures for put- ting a stop lo the illegal practice of writing receipts upon unstamped paper. A case occurred at the Public Office, Bow- street, on Tuesday last, in which a considerable flour- factor, residing at Mount Place, Whitechapel Road, was convicted in the full penalty of £ 10 and costs, for giving a receipt for £ 11. 15s. upon unstamped paper. The party lodging the information receiving a moiety of the penalty. DEPLORABLE ACCIDENT.— On Monday last, as the well- known Mr. Britton, the auifior of many celebrated works 0: 1 architectural antiquities, was iding 011 the Stroud road, near Gfoucester, his horse started, and rearing up, fell Backwards on his rider in a deep ditch by the road side. Mr. B. having, with extreme difficulty, extricated himself from his perilous position under the struggling animal, found that his right leg had sustained a most severe compound fracture, both bones being broken just above the ancle, and the foot twisted completely round. His cries for assistance were immediately heard by some persons residing near the spot, by whom he was con- veyed with gveat care to his residence al the Spa Hotel, where the fracture was reduced in a very skilful man- ner, and the sufferer is now in as favourable a stale as the severity of the fracture will allow. On Monday week, Mr. George Dodd, a man of considerable talent as an engineer, was brought before the Lord Mayor from the Giltspur- street Compter, and he took his place amongst other paupers, and looked as wretched and destitute as any of ihem. He had been found in a state of intoxication on the preceding night, and appeared to suffer most dreadfully in his nerves from constant habits of drinking. He was recognized by the Lord Mayor, who knew him in prosperous days, and spoke kindly to him upon this woful alteration in ' his fortunes. He, however, vvas reluctant to state particulars, but spoke wildly of hope deferred and of promises forgotten. His only request was to be sent back to the Compter for one week's support, after which he should, he hoped, have the power of rallyino- and projecting new systems of life. His request was cheerfully granted, and the Lord Mayor directed that he should be placed under the care of Mr. Box, the surgeon of the prison. Upon his return to the Compter, he was conducted to the infirmary, and Mr. Box ordered some medicines to be given to him. This order was the very last that poor Dodd would obey. He said, 44 What, give me poison? No! If 1 um 10 die, I will not he instrumental to my own death— I won't take poison." The interference of Mr. Teague, the keeper, was of no avail— he would drink any thing except the poison they called medicine. He lingered until Tuesday morning, when, completely exhausted, he sunk into death. In his pockets were found some letters, from which it appeared that lie- had constructed an apparatus for extinguishing fire in vessels, and that his. plan had been adopted in some of his Majesty's ships.
