In the Year 1797, I caught a most violent Cold, y • which affected my Breast and Lungs so much, that 1 p; could scarcely speak to be understood, and remained so fir the Spnce of two Months; at the same Time acconi- |„ I> auied with a great Discharge from my Lungs, which j, continued with unabated Force uniil the Year 1809.— When, after having Recourse to almost every Advice, [ and to no Purpose, being in Conversation with a Gentleman of the Faculty, I told liim I thought there was no perfect Cure for an Asthma, to which he as- sented, but replying that he had one himself, and bis only Relief was bv Inking frequently some Medicines F to keep . his Lungs'open. About this Time a Neigh- bour cam. e to see uie, who said he had been equally as 1 had as I was then, anil he first told me of CHURCH'S COUCH DROPS, being the Medicine that made liini as ( he was then iu Health, aud persuaded me to make |, Trial of a small Bottle.— I sent for one to Shrewsbury, ] to Mr. WOODS, the Printer, at which Time Iliad an incessant Cough with liule or no Intermission. f lu the Morning at Breakfast I took two Tea Spoon- ' fills of the Drops in the last Cup of Tea ; and no more I wonderful than true, I did not Cough for the Space of j ten Miutiles after, which would have taken place I twenty or thirty Times before in that Time.— In short, . il and'a feiv Bottles more perfectly cured me then, and i I have never been without it in my limine for several 5 Years after, to use it upon any Occasion after taking i Cold.

Nothing definitive or authentic is known respect, ing the new ministry, beyond the fact that it is to be formed by the Duke of Wellington, that Mr. Peel will be its head according to all reasonable calcu- lation, and thai none of the late cabinet, Lords Carlisle, Bexley4 and Lyudliuist, and Mr. Herries being excepted, will lie admitted into it. The following particulars, given in the Standard of Saturday, constitute in truth e% ery word ihai has transpired on the Subject, save only tlie fwelj that the Duke of Wellington left town yesteida^ for Windsor fre believe, though it has he£ n assert^ Fitral his pur- pose is to proceed t o St rat hfiehlsayy. fft which place be had invited Prince Miguel before the recent blow- up of the Minis'. ry had taken j* teee, so that of course that engagement must he kept, however inconvenient it may be at present. ( Fromthe Standard of Saturday.} Every thing which has transpired: respiting the new ministerial arrangements up to this hour, ( one o'clock 0: 1 Saturday,) confirms the'opinion that Mr. Peel will be the First Lord of ; 1le Treasury, and the mbwslVrial leader of' the Manse of Commons. The right* lion, genllemftn was visited yesterday by the " Duke of Wellington, with whom he continued long in Conversation. Throughout the day he was receiving Visits from all the leaders of the Tory party in town, as well as from one or two of the late Ministers ( Mr. Huskisson among the rest) who cling to the hope that they may be permitted to remain in office. The Duke of Wellington's list will not be made up before evening, and in the mean time conjecture is busy in anticipating- its components; The following is Handed about in the Tory circles, as a not improbable guess, a:; far as tt goes : — First Lord of the Treasury... Mr. Peel. Ordnance. Huke of Wellington. Foreign Secretary Marquis Wellesley Colonial Lord Melville. Home Mr. Dawson. President of the Council.... Earl Buthurvt. Woods and Forests, with a present Peerage to himself and Dukedom to the Earl of Lonsdale Board of Trade Secretary at War Lord Low tliei*. Mr. Wallace. Mr. Gojilburn, or Mr. Dawson, should not the latter go to the Home Office. The Lord Chancellor, Privy Seal, / Chancellor of the Exehe- V As at present filled. quer, and perhaps the V India Board, J Here is a sufficient Cabinet. But besides those n; im< d for particular offices, there are the Earl of Westmoreland, Lord Ravensworth, and several other noblemen and gentlemen spoken of for offices ot high influence « nd dignity. Any arrangement would undoubtedly be incomplete which should deprive the King of the advice of the wisest and oldest counsellor — the Earl of Eldon. One thing is certain— the Whigs, and bastard Whigs, the liberal Tories, have no chance of forming any sensible part of the new Cabinet. This is con- fessed by their journals in direct terms, more satisfac- torily by ' he arts w hich they are employ ing to secure the continuance in office of one or two of the most artful of their body, to serve as the agent and instru- ment of treachery, when time shall offer oportunity for another intrigue. From the Standard of Monday [ This Day]. We shall not have any authoritative list of the ministry until it has received, the royal sanction, which will he given to morrow evening, or at farthest early on Wednesday. The Duke of Wellington very pro- perly considers it contraiy to etiquette to make any premature announcement ; and Lord Melville's a fi- ne nee may. perhaps, hinder the final adjustment of the ministry. The former reason is, however, we believe, tl-. e true one. In the meantime our readers may be assured that our guess on Saturday was tolerably correct. The woe and consternation " of the Whigs is most comical. The luu It in King Agramant's camp, is a civil game compaud Willi the everyday proceedings at Brookes's, ANOTHER COUNTRY BANK ROBBED, AT LF. DHURY, IN ' HEREFORDSHIRE. On Friday night last, the respectable Banking- house of Messrs. Webb and Son, at Ledbury, in Hereford* hi re, was entered, between seven and eight o'clock, by means of picklock Keys, and property ' « > the amount of ten thousand pounds value was, we are informed, carried oft' by the thieves. . This robbery was executed with so much skill and dexterity, that it is the opinion of the police it was done by some of tlie most adroit thieves of the London school There can he no doubt that the deep laid plan for rob- Ling this bank had been for some time in contemplation by the robbers. Several strange persons have, within the last week or two, arrived in Ledbury, and remained sit the inns for a day or two, without any apparent business, and have Suddenly left tlie place ; and from the dfsCiiptio. it of the parties, it is confidently believed they belong to a well known gang in the metropolis. The property carried off by the villains consisted of cash to the amount of between one and two thousand pounds-, a bank post hit) for £ 500, dated Oct 26. 1827, 5 livable at seven days' sight, to Richard Webb, Esq or oider. accepted Dec. 2ti, 1S27, " 11.

A » soon as the robbery was discovered by the pro- prietors of the hunk, it is almost needless to say that per o ! « were dispatched to London, expressly for t he purpose of stopping the payment of the notes nt the agents of the bank in London, information was also C niihuuicaied by the same messengers to the inagis-. t. ates- of Bo- w. streef office, and Lcdhetter, a vei'v active nud WteUigeiit officer, v. as iarmediaJ- elj sent off tows © his exertion* to trace the thieves and recover the pro- perty. The thieves, it was ascertained, came post to J ondi tt, as soon as they had effected their object • and active were they iu their journey to town, that we r gret to say they a. rived in Lotnhaid- street some horns tiefore their pursuris; and in the middle of the day of Saturday last, they exchanged £ 550 of the stolen notes, for Bank of England notes and sovereigns, The deeds, they, no doubt, will return to the bankers, if they can M compromise" for a handsome sum.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, JAN. 8— John Bancroft was opposed by Mr. Woodroflt\ The nature of the case may be gathered from the following judgment •— The chief commissioner said, that it appeared to be admitted on all hands that the insol vent removed himself froin Shrewsbury at his own expense; the question,' therefore, for the court to consider was, had the insolvent taken his case out of the 66th seciion by afu^ wards giving bail to the action, and coining before the court in custody upon a render iu discharge of that bail The court was unanimously of opinion that fie had not, and that he had no locus sianfli there. Any other construction than this would be to foil her the fraud committed fiy the insolvent, and defeat the intention of the legislature, which was ( as had been argued) clearly manifested both iu the letter and the spirit of the 66th section of the act. The court would not dismiss the petition, but allow it to remain on the file; but at the same time it would make ; the following order: — That the insolvent remove himself at his own expense from 1 he'King's Bench prison to Shrewsbury, and there to remahi to abide an examination before the commissioner appointed to go on the next circuit..— Mr. Commissioner Bow en and Mr. Com- missioner Law expressed their concurrence in the manner in which the case w as for the present disposed of.— London Packet. SUCCESSFUL CASE OF TRANSFUSION OF BLOOD. We have much pleasure in recording a successful case of transfusion of blood, which occurred last week, in the person of Elizabeth Evans, wife of David Evans, Barker- street, in this tow n. In con- sequence of miscarriage, the poor woman had, from a violent hemorrhage, become quite exhausted, and nature was on the point of sinking; her pulse had been imperceptible for about an hour and a half, her extremities cold, and perspiration clammy; added to which symptoms her stomach was so irritable, as to reject every description of nourish- ment— every cordial and stimulant that was offered. At this critical moment, it occurred to Mr. VV. J, Clement, the surgical gentleman called in, that the only chance was to attempt the operation above alluded to; and having procured a healthy stout man who was willing to aid the operation by allow- ing the requisite quantity of blood to be taken from him, Mr. Clement opened a vein in an arm of each, and, by means of Weiss's patent syringe and tubes, injected about 15 ounces of blood, and with the most complete success : in the course of a few hours she was perceptibly better, and has continued im proving up to the present period, giving- every assurance of ultimate recovery. In noticing this extraordinary case, we cannot too strongly recom- mend the propriety of every professional gentleman being provided with the requisite apparatus, as, there can be no doubt, it may be the means of saving the lives of many very valuable members of society, who must otherwise sink under that ex- haustion for which this operation appears to offer an adequate remedy. It may be proper to observe, that much of the success of the operation depends on the syringe and tubes being kept immersed in warm water during the transfusion, as the congela- tion of the blood destroys hs vitality, and would thereby frustrate the intention of the operator.

The opponents of the proposed measure of building a New Church had, for many weeks, been vapouring at, and directing their paper missiles against; the plan, and when the poll commenced, they informed the public it - would " continue for Some weeks." They stood three days' poll, but, as the majority against them continued to increase, they with difficulty struggled ( for struggle they most assuredly did!) through Monday and Tuesday, polled only two on Wednesday, and on that day made their exit !— To this lame and impotent conclusion" has come alftherhodomontadeabout " NINE- TENTHS" of fhe parishioners of St. Chad being opposed to the erection of an additional Church !! I The party have, however, favoured the public with intelligence that will, certainly, be news to those engaged in the contest: for the. y now assert that Colonel Leigh toil's amendment was " not seconded by any person"— and that the parish- officers were guilty of " gross partiality." There are, too, some minor charges, not worth the trouble of refutation, coupled with assertions that the votes of their'party given in thelast days of their struggle were merely u legal tenders," and that the shew of hands on the day of meeting was four to one in favour of Mr. Clement's resolutions !!!! Now it must be clear to every capacity, that a shew of VOTES is a much better criterion of party strength than a shew of hands: inasmuch as it is not an uncommon practice to assemble a party for a particular purpose who may be very able to shew their hands in places where they can do nothing else but shew them, and in . which so shewing are not empowered to take pensihitff those hands and write their names either for- W against auy resolution which may be there fn'o^ ounded. Such we know was the case at the late meeting. It may be very well for the party to slink out of the contest under cover of their " legal tendersbut the fact is, they had exhausted their force; and, by the way, we may here state that the charge of " partiality" is one of the most curious that could well be made under the circumstances: for it so happens that every person that voted for the amendment had to pay his rates before he was allowed to vote— and a professional gentleman on the part of the revolutionists was present from Thursday to Wednesday last, to see that this was done: not so, however, on the other side-— for the proposer of the resolutions himself, and one of his principal supporters ( as far as voting is concerned) actualiy polled without paying their rates— and almost the last act in the Vestry prior to the closing of the poll, was a protest made to the senior churchwarden against those two names being al- lowed to stand among the raHe- payers that had voted on this occasion ! The organ of the party has, however, made a notable discovery—- he has actually found out that Colonel Lei^ htou's amendment, " being not se- conded by any person, naturally fell dead, born " and useless, agr eubfy to the rule at every public " meeting:— so that those persons who have signed " it have signed a nonentity. 1'' We shall not quarrel with the diction of the droll passage we have jiist quoted: but we shall at once proceed to demolish the shallow argument it con- tains, by shewing that the assertion on which that argument is framed is a direct and palpable false- hood. The amendment proposed by Colonel Leighton was seconded, and iu a most audible tone too, by John Eaton, jun. Esq.; and, if we did not know the party, we may express our surprise at the impudence and hardihood of the assertion to which this statement on our part gives the direct and irrefragable contradiction. But the plain truth is, not that the Amendment was " dead- born," but that, as one of their own, party acknowledged, the supporters of the Resolutions were DEAD- BEAT and with that assurance, we shall for the present dismiss this subject, in full confidence that, whether the poll of the YdXe- payers or the signatures of the proprietors be the ground Of criterion* t4ve parties opposed to the erection of an additional Church will, in the parish of St. Chad, find themselves opposed by an increasing and ovCrWhH^ iug' ma- jority.

The attendance of Magistrates at this Sessions was very numerous, and, owing to the great pressure of business, it was only by great exertion that they were enabled to bring the business td a close last niyht. Thomas Charlton Whitrnore, Esq. c Monday, the 7th inst. was the day appointed for celebrating the Birth- Dav of Thomas Charlton W hit more, " Esq. who came of age on the preceding Sunday, the 6th of January. At half- past eight in the morning, upon a signal given, the roar of twenty- one cannon announced the commencement of the festivities. Oxen and sheep were roasted whole in various parts. At BRIDGNORTH, at WELLINGTON, and in different spots adjacent to Apley Park, a bountiful supply of " Old Oliver" was provided— four hogsheads being appropriated to the supply of Bridgnorth ; and we are happy to learn, that there was meat sufficient for all who came, and that one hogshead of Old Stingo remain- ed untouched, after every applicant had been satisfied. At Apley Park, a very sumptuous enter- tainment was provided, to which forty of the immediate relations and friends of the family sat down, among whom we had the pleasure to notice the near relative and early friend of Mr. Wrhitmore, the Right Hon. the Vice- Chancellor. — The evening was concluded with an excellent display of fire- works.— On the following morning upwards of fifty gentlemen assembled at Apley Park, to escort Mr. T. C. Whitmore to take up his freedom in the ancient borough of Bridgnorth. At the entrance of the town the cavalcade was met by a band of music, and entered the town with flags flying, and was saluted at intervals with the discharge of cannon. When the procession had arrived at the Town Hall, Thomas Whitmore, Esq. having taken his seat as Recorder, and the Bailiffs their respect- ive places, W. VV. WHITMORE, Esq. M. P. addressed the assembly in the following words : " Mr. Bailiffs, and Gentlennn,— Although upon occasions of this sort, where an individual appears to take up his freedom, he is only claiming a right, and not soliciting a favour, the aid of a mover or seconder is generally dispensed with; still I conceive the pre- sent occasion will justify a deviation from the common practice, and that you will permit me tiv make a few comments in introducing to your notice one of the Gentlemen whose name has just been enrolled iu the Town Clerk's hooks, as claiming to take out his free dom for this borough. Yon anticipate. Gentlemen, that I allirde to Mr. Thomas Charlton Whitmore. It is not in the language of adulation that \ would . address either you or him ; such a course is foreign to my character and feelings, and cannot be puisued bv nre:. neither, indeed, would it be allowable on the present occasion. One speaks not. of the warrior buckling on his'armour in the same terms one uses towards him who, having fought the fight and aehiev ed the victory, is ridding himself of the burden : one describes in other language the virtues of which alone the promise and the germ appear, than that one should use where those virtues were exhibited in foil. blown maturity : but, Gentlemen, is it not allowable in me to say that that" germ and promise exist in the honour- able friend whom I now introduce to your notice ? J know not whether I read his character aright; but unless I greatly err, there is a promise about him which fully justifies such a statement. If the meridian sun equal in its splendour the brightness of the dawn, neither you nor your children will have reason to regret that the connexion which now for upwards of two centuries has existed between the House of Apley and the Borough of Bridgnorth should be continued in the person of my honourable friend. Placed in a situation iu which affluence and power to a certain extent will he at his command,' he will have high and important duties to fulfil : we shall have right to r* pect from him that he will prove himself the upright and intelligent. Magistrate— the honest, conscientious, incorruptible Senator — the kind neighbour— the friend of his equals — the supporter of the middling class of society — the consider of the ills, the adviser, the. solace in their poverty and distress, of that more numerous hnt equally respectable class placed next in degree to the middling class. Let him but tread in the steps of his Father, and you will have no reason to repent your choice whenever he shall be called upon to supply that parent's place. At so early a period of life it is not to he expected that many indications of character can have been evinced : hitherto he has been judged of only by intimate arid partial friends; hut there is one indication to which I must call your attention You are aware my honourable friend is at the University of Oxford, that he is a Gentleman Com mofter there, and that Gentlemen Commoners not uufrequently leave the University either without a degree, or content themselves with taking an honorary one. Not so my honourable friend : he felt it right to go through the ordeal of an examination, and he did pass through it with credit to himself: he might have shirked a duty, hut he determined on performing it. The inference I draw from this fact is, that we may expect in similar circumstances he will not shrink front the performance of his duty, even although attended with some labour and inconvenience to him self. It is. me of the favourable circumstances of his situation, i- i'i' fie appears before jon as the Heir and not as ' the Assessor of Aplev. Great wealth at so early a period of life is rarely favourable in the form- ation of character. He will have the advantage of the guidance and experience of his parents, at a period when their advice and example will he of so much service in the developement of his faculties— the acquirement of sound principles and manly feelings. Indeed, to contemplate him other than the Heir of Apley, would involve a saerifieeaud a loss which you and I should shudder to contemplate. Gentlemen, I a in not aware it is necessary for me to occupy much more of your time, but I must again advert to the duties my honourable friend will, in all human proba- bility, at some period be called upon to discharge. Let him remember he is the Citizen of a Free Country, that he may become the Guardian of the Liberty, Pro- perty, Rights, and Interests of his Countrymen — that in such case he will be called upon to support a Con- stitution which,- although perhaps partaking of some of the imperfections of so fallible a being as man, is still one of the noblest works of man. I should ex- press myself in a manner more congenial to my feel- ings, if I said it was the noblest of such works : thence have sprung the power, the wealth, the manly charac- ter, the moral feelings of the people of this country : these may all be traced to this source. Let him, then, study deeply the principles of that Constitution. I need not detain you lonyer than by introducing to your notice Mr. Charlton Whit more." W. LACON CHILDE, Esq. then said — " Mr. Bailiffs, and Brother Burgesses — I do assure you that nothing was farther from my intention than to have said one word at this meeting ; but, after the course which has been taken by my honourable friend w ho has just sat down, 1 cannot refrain from express- ing the pleasure which I feel at witnessing, upon my first appearance as a Burgess amongst you, the free- dom of your Borough taken out by the Heir of that To the Editor of the Salopian Journal. SIR, ancient and honourable House which has so longgiven this Borough Representatives in Parliament, and which, I hope to God, will continue to give them as long as the rock shall endure upon which your tow n is founded. I am just come from Apley Park, where ] have been offering my cordial congratulations to my friends upon the majority of their Son, and I now congratulate you, the Burgesses of Bridgnorth, upon placing oil your list of freemen the name of an indivi- dual w ho has long since manifested a disposition which has rendered him the delight of his domestic circle, and who, I firmly believe, possesses qualities which, if cultivated and drawn forth as I trust thrv will be, are calculated to render him highly useful to this neighbourhood and to his country at large, which I hope he will one day serve.— Brother Burgesses,! am sure you will all gladly join me in giving three hearty cheers upon this occasion." Mr. T. CHARLTON WHITMORE then addressed the assembly as follows: — " Mr. Bailiffs, and Gentlemen,— I beg to offer my most sincere thanks for the very handsome manner in which I have heen proposed to your notice, as well as for the cordial manner in which that proposal has heen received by you this morning. No one can feel more sensibly than I do the truth of those observations which vou have just heard, respecting" the duties of a British Senator, a Magistrate, and a Country Gentle- man : iu each of these capacities I have, in your Representatives and in my Friend on my left ( William Lacon Childe, Esq ), bright examples to follow. And if at some future period I shall he called upon to fill any station in the Borough or Corporation of Bridg- north, it will he my earnest endeavour, it. will be my highest happiness, to study the interest of that Borough and of that Corporation." An universal applause followed the delivery of each of these addresses, and particularly the last, as, both from the matter which it contained and the manner in which it was spoken, it gave to the audience every indication that this gentleman's talents for speaking were of no ordinary kind. We hear that the Corporation of Bridgnorth are invited to dine at Apley Park in the present week. If the person who subscribed himself " Somebody" to a paragraph in the Shrewsbury Chronicle, on the subject of Hi ® Pontesbnry Schools, and whose real name has since appeared, had been content with stating plain matters of fact, without any disguise or misrepresentations, perhaps no one would have been less inclined than myself to notice them. But both of his communications being of a very different character; and it having been hinted to me by those who know the writer better than I do, that u Some, body else" may have dipped his pen in " Somebody's" inkpot, to whom he may be indebted for those pro- ductions, I trust the public will not forget what ' Soan. body" told them, that there was nnsehi- o' at Pontesbury; but did not fell fhern that there was a school not two miles from it on the. largest scale, for the education of all the poor children of the parish; ( not a single instance having yet occured of a child's being refused admission info it)--*- v\ hich omission they cannot consider in any oilier light than an insidious attempt to mislead and deceive them. Was it not telling the truth, but not the whole truth and nothing but the troth; and if a Witness in a court of aw knowingly and willingly suppresses pail of bis evidence, the whole of which is essential to ihe. in. vcs ligation of the case and the ends of justice, who will believe him on his oath? ( u like manner, it a person artfully and industriously propagates a report, ( though not bound by the sacred obligation of an oath,) and in part discloses the truth, but in part conceals it, and in either or both cases it leads to false deduc- tions, what ci'cdit is due to his veracity ? I will then leave it to auy unprejudiced person,, whether lie or a stranger to the parish ( who were not better informed) wouTd not have concluded, on reading the paragraph in question that there was no provision whatever for the education of poor children at Pontesbnry; nor even any notice taken of them by the clergymen residing there, though it was notorious that there is a national school at a convenient distance from it, sup- ported by subscriptions of nearly £ 100 per annum, capable of affoiding sufficient' accommodation for all the poor children now taught at both places; the walk to and from w hich is only moderate exercise, aud conducive to the health of the scholars. Distance, though urged as an objection to the national school, is not solo the children's coming from Minsterlev and Snailbeach to the Dissenters' school ; the latter being at least three miles from this place. The number of scholars on their list, they say, are 7* 2. But here again, if they tell us the truth, have they told us the whole truth ? They may at first have bad 72 ou their list,- and they may still have the same numerical figures upon it ; but do they tell us how- many have left them who have been admitted into my school, and how many are attending at this time ( the only true erileiion) at their school. They were stated by a person residing under the same roof where the school is taught at 52 ; the greater part of them coming from the two places before mentioned, and a smaller part of their own denomination probably belonging to this parish; yet these few arc joined with our own children to swell the amount to 314, though there are not more at the national school than 122, at my own school 120, and at the Dissenters' school ( reckoning them even at one half of their pre- sent number resident in the parish) 2fi; or in the whole 268 ; for every one of whom, 1 assert without any fear of contradiction, there is now ample room at the national school. l! it be denied ibat the Dissenfers have not secretly canvassed for scholars, I have already pledged myself to prove it ; ami the information I have, received is further confirmed by the respectable master of the national school, who has discharged his duty in that situation in a manner highly creditable to himself, and to the satisfaction of the subscribers ; aud yet ibis excellent institution, so well conducted, had not a few weeks ago even a name, but was. kept as much out of view as if it had already merged in the rising foundation of our new Evangelists! I am quite willing to concede to the Dissenters all the merit they assume for their unremitting exertions to disseminate their own peculiar tenets in the neigh bonrhood where they reside, and the duty of the officiating minister will be necessarily increased in proportion to their numbers, to the influence they exercise over the lower classes of his parishioners, aud the d- anger of their diawing them from the church to the conventicle, under the pretext of preaching the gospel in its truest purity. 1 even admit that before this unseasonable and unbecoming interference with the children of the parochial poor, " limited," as I hey say it was, 44 to one child out of each family," 1 had no intention, as a single individual, and at so great an expense of time, labour, and money, of opening a new school ; but had every reason to be satisfied with the share I had taken iu building and supfuiiius^ the national school, believing it to be foliy adequate to all the exigencies of the charity. Its doors were open for the reception of many more children than had ever resorted tail. ; and 1 trusted their parents, would have accepted thankfully and employed gratefully the means so happily placed within their reach, and so amply provided for their education The chief reason why the school has not been better attended, particularly from this neighbourhood, is owing, J believe, to there being so many children under six years old— none being admitted, according to Dr. Bell's system, who have not attained that age; a great number of which description now belong to my school; but who, unquestionably, on arriving at the proper age, would have been received into ihe na- tional school. There has also been a furthe r reduction at the latter place -. by their removal to mv OWMI school. I contend, therefore, that instead of there being " a great increase of uneducated children nowf receiving iustrnetion, who were not receiving instruction be- fore," there are comparatively but a few of the poor children of this parish, and those chit fly under six years old, who either have not, or might not have received instruction at the national school before any other schools were opened. And yet, with all these facilities, and notwithstanding there was room at the national school for all the children taught here, Pontesbuvy has been singled out as a place where there is no education for poor children, the clergy of the Established Church revihd as " slumbering at their post, and giving themselves up to hesitation and delay," and the Dissenters 44 raised ' up among them to supply their lack of service!! !" To these remarks 1 make no reply, nor shall I notice any further communications from R. France, or his coadjutors, who, in his name, have not scrupled to report such calumnies against the clergy of Established Church ; it matters not whether at Pon. tesbury or elsewhere, as in either case, I trust, they are equally unfounded ; and I will venture to appeal lo the good sense and sober judgment of the better informed and more discerning part of the public, with what plea of truth aud justice such charges have been brought against them !

[ AT the moment of a change of Administration, it may he interesting to our readers to peruse the sentiments of those who, with different opinions, and in parts of the kingdom remote from one another, have directed the public attention to the political state of the Ev * re at this important juncture.- We, therefore, subjoin the recent essays of some of em contemporaries ] The Complaint of the Whigs r t t ( FROM THE MORNING CHFTONICEE, JAN. 5 ) Who is prime minister ? This question meets you at every corner of the street ; is echoed from the counting- house in the east to the club- room in the west; and agitates alike the speculator m the stocks and the speculator in places. Nor is it idle curiosity alone that asks the question j interest— the interest of all— is- deeply involved in its solution. The merchant dares not freight his vessel; the manu- facturer dares not twist his cotton, while he doubts if Huskisson and liberality, or Eldou and exclusion, are to take the lead. The farmer, brooding ou his packs of unsold wool, and his rrcks of un thrashed wheat, has a faint glimmering hope of Wellington, and prosperity to the agricultural interest; while the country banker, awakening from his trance, sees in prospect a one pound note, and the destruc- tion of the bullionists. This must quickly end. In a few days parliament will meet, big , wifh the fury of the Lords, and the fears of the Commons : but ere the battle begins, a general must be found to rally the dispirited and abandoned troops of the government. Who, then, shall he be— Whig or Tory ?. the terms are almost obsolete. Catholic or Anti- Catholic? In spite of the vapouring of Shiel and O'Connell, and the triumph of the immaculate Maguire;— in England, at least, the question is of minor importance. Let him be firm in purpose and bold in execution; bid him be candid to his sovereign and honest to the people,- come the four corners of the world in arms, and he will shock them. While Mr. Canning's master mind was able to consolidate the somewhat incongruous materials of our cabinet, the hesitation of the doubtful and the alarms of the timid, were overpowered at the Council Board; but alas! his successor has not caught the spirit, together with the mantle of the lamented statesman, and seems to have neither confidence in his colleagues nor confidence in himself. Lord Goderich is a warm- hearted excellent im « i ; as an affectionate husband, good father, kind friend, and benevolent landlord, he possesses all the domestic virtues; but what is that to the nation? We want the head to plan, and the hand to execute. Goodness of intention w ill not excuse weakness of conduct; and Lord Goderich's conduct can only be attributed to a violent attach of bodily infirmity, or a temporary access of mental aberration. To offer his resignation, without communication with his colleagues, at the very moment, too, when the proclamation for the assembling of parliament was signed— to desert his colours and throw up his command when the day of " conflict was actually appointed!!— such conduct appears to be equalled in weakness only by the absurdity of his return to the very office he had eight and forty hoars before acknowledged his inability to sustain. Who can have confidence in such a premier ? The trans- actions in the Mediterranean are. to be discussed. How is any sincere friend of the Greeks and ap prover of the intervention, to venture on the defence of the battle of Navarino, when he knows liot if the very grounds on which he is prepared to defend it may not be abandoned, and the blame thrown, by a recreant or repentant administration on the gallant commander ! Allusion is made to the state- of our finances. Can any man undertake to vouch for the economical intentions of a ministry not yet formed? Can he declare that the future First Lord of the Treasury will sanction the appointment of the promised finance committee; or that such committee, unlike those who have flattered and deceived us, will be permitted to probe the evil to its source, and frankly explain to the public the real state of our receipt and expenditure'? Who is the minister? is still the question; and until that is known, every transaction is in abeyance. Our foreign and, domestic policy are alike uncertain; and according to the. advantage which any party in ihe cabinet may obtain by the nomination of Premier, the Greek or the Turk, economy or profusion, free trade or restriction, may obtain the support from government. Parliament, 1 say, is about to meet, and the question must be settled. Is it to be expected that members of either house will give their support to a ministry the head of which can only be guessed at? Can the Secretary ofthe Treasury write his circular letters most earnestly and particularly to request your attendance in behalf of some unknown individual, who may, by royal favour or mutual compromise among the contending candidates, be placed at the head of affairs? " Oh, but his Majesty," they tell us, " is firm; be will have nothing to do with the old faction, arid whoever is appointed chief will carry on the government in the spirit of Mr. Canning's system " The spirit of Mr. Canning! Would he have one day rewarded the admiral with high honours, and the next dispatched a naval envoy to investigate his conduct? Would Mr. Canning's spirit have submitted that the patronage of the church should be placed under the private influence of the palace, and the pntronage of the army under the public direction of his avowed enemy ? Again, among their own troops, disaffection is most manifest. The inferior and irresponsible members ofthe Government shrug their shoulders; and, in half finished sentences, express their con- tempt at the weakness, and their ridicule at the fears, of their own masters, the cabinet ministers. There is treachery in the camp. How the unfortunate lords and gentlemen are to be pitied, who are to move and second the addresses in either house of parliament! The King's speech will, of. course, be as unmeaning and unintelligible a composition as the art of man can frame, and the old tale will be told again, that in voting for the address no person is compromised ; that such a vote is only a mark of respect to the crown, and does not in the slightest degree bind any member of parliament to the support of any measure of the government? but the mover and seconder of the address must say something in behalfof their friends, and before that something is prepared to be said, 1 again ask who are their friends? Who is the minister ? Though we are not of that class of persons who despair either of the energies or the resources of the country, we cannot look upon its present statp, still- less upon its present prospects, without considerable uneasiness. Even as compared with the opening of the last year— a period by no means promising— the commencement of the present is altogether dis- couraging. At the former period our prospects, at least, were flattering; we were at peace and good understanding with all the world ; our revenue more than covered our expenditure; and there was unanimity in our councils,, and confidence in the nation. At the present moment the very reverse of this is the fact. We have entered upon a war in which British interests are little, if at all concerned, and which, through the intricate windings of foreign policy, may lead to cousequenees of such infinite variety and vast importance, and its present and ostensible purpose may be so lost iu new and un- foreseen considerations, that neither its termination nor its consequences can be foretold. Our domestic affairs are even more discouraging than our foreign relations. If reports of the state of the revenue be correct, the deficiency of the quarter, and upon the year just ended, although small, is such, that additional taxes will be absolutely necessary to preserve the credit of the country ; and yet such is the state of our agriculture, commerce, and manu- factures— so small are the returns to industry and enterprise sincc the new commercial system has brought foreign competition into our markets, that none of the great interests are in circumstances to bear any additional burdens. And if the demands of our peace establishment so far exceed the income ofthe country, how will our financial difficulties be met, should we find ourselves, as there is too much reason to fear, engaged in a war of which it is im- possible to foresee either the extent or the duration? There is but one way of answering the question still heavier burdens must be laid upon the nation. Such, then, are our financial prospects at the com- mencement of the year 1828; and what a contrast do they present to those with which the year 1825 opened upon the country ! Then a flourishing re- venue showed a surplus of trillions beyond the ex- penditure ; t: he country was prosperous, wealthy, and at peace1. Since that time, the doctrines of free trade and reciprocity have guided our commercial policy, and liberal principles have predominated in our councils:— the consequences are a deficient revenue and a foreign war! From this disheartening view of England, let us turn to the state of Ireland. There we find the con- ciliatory policy of Lord Wellesley producing its natural effects. Under its benign influence the popish demagogues and priests have become more turbulent and insolent than ever, and the whole Catholic population impregnated with the most hostile sentiments, not only towards their Protestant brethren but against the British connexion itself. The Protestants, in the meantime, are threatened, insulted, and braved; their lives and property are kept in continual jeopardy ; and while their enemies insult the government itself with impunity, they arc fort) id to give public expression to their loyalty, or even to associate for mutual defence!— Such are the effects of the conciliatory system in Ireland! There is not, however, any thing so alarming either in the aspect of foreign affairs, or in the in- ternal state of the country, that may uot be over come by a ministry possessing energy and talent, and the confidence ofthe country. But in a cabinet which has no bond of union but a compromise of principle, we seek in vain for such qualifications; and we should despair of the couutry if we did not know that in the free expression of public opinion, and in the independence of parliament, we have a guarantee against the present ministry's long con tinuance in office. To the » ieeting of parliament, therefore, we look with the utmost anxiety, and with a confident hope that, by the deliberations and acts ofthe next session, public credit will be restored, national industry encouraged, trade and manufac- tures protected, the currency fixed upon sound principles, our Protestant establishments upheld and the confidence of the country restored to hi Majesty's councils by the formation of a united cabinet, and the overthrow of secret influence.— Manchester Courier, Jan. 2. existence to protect our Constitution from innovation, and our Altars from infidelity. Yet, when we have conquered every foe,- vtfe ate called upon to ofrer our- selves a voluntary sacrifice to the very enemies that we have subdued; when we have remWed the mo< k philosophy the scorn of the world,- we caH upon the world to embrace if. The principles that we hare bled at every pore to maintain, we renounce as won as we have freed ourselves from their opponents. Tae members who have ventured to attack the new sys- tem, now so singularly espoused by many of both par- ties in the legislature, are heated in a manner that would have disgraced some of the National Assem- blies of France. Onr Shipowners, one of the greatest interests in the nation, are petitioners for protean01* from ruin ; aud where is the party to support . their prayer ? Tin; two great parties seem to be mow com- bined, and their petitions are disdainfully rejected. Every branch of industry in the country is paralized, and much of the distress has demonstrably been produced by the new system ; yet Parliament, by its majorities, would appear to be all harmony. Our House of Commons scarcely seems to be the House of Commons of Old England Instead of constitu- tional jealousy of change and innovation, we find in it a rage for them. Instead of shewing constitutional attachment to English laws and institutions, we find it asserting lhat they ore little belter than a mass of errors and evils. We find it scoffing at the prejudices of our ancestors, instead of honouring and revering them. The only members who are not listened to, and who are scarcely suffered to open their lips, are those who protest against changes, defend our laws, and speak the language of our fathers. The House used to be distinguished by ils anxiety to promote the benefit of England ; now it is distinguished by au anxiety to impoverish it for the benefit of foreign nations. Our agriculture and manufactures are thrown into distress by experiments which originated ith liberal quacks, and the House supports the quacks against the sufferers. Our navy is threatened with ruin by similar experiments, and the House • leaves to the quacks, aud risks the navy; experi- mental quackery has filled the nation with misery, and still the House is nearly unanimous in applaud, ing it. When we see men trampling upon the ashes of English worthies, railing down our Church Estab lishment, and destroying by wholesale, principles and systems that are more peculiarly English in their origin and operation, who can forbear asking himself, can this be the House of Commons of Eng- land ?' When we see the benches which heretofore were occupied by the parents of our happiness and grandeur, and from whence the thunders of such men as Pitt smote liberalism and jacobinism to the dust, filled by ministers who adopt the schemes of such men as Hume and Bentham, cry up liberal opinions, and denounce the old principles of their country, voting for the most wild innovations for " liberality's sake," and making, upon mad theory, the most perilous experiments in all the great interests in the empire, we cannot again forbear exclaiming, can this be the House of Commons of Old England ? In conclusion, the political changes of the present Ministry have produced the most sweeping practical mischiefs; they have destroyed some of our most valuable laws and systems; they have altered the circumstances and state of society ; they are hostile to the old and true principles of the country; aud they are pregnant with mighty evils. This is our conscientious conviction, and therefore we will oppose them. The people generally are awakening from their slumber; and the time we think is not far distaut, when the Ministry will consist of a far greater portion of English ancestry, blood, heart, feeling, and opinion, than it at present contains. The men who disdain to wear the fetters of any public man or party— who have made the ministers what they are— and who can with half their strength crush every opponent— have never sanctioned the new measures; they have only looked on with passive disapprobation. These measures have been carried, through their neutrality of action. But let them be assured5, that though they have been deserted, betrayed, and left without leaders, they are still omnipotent. Let them shake off their apathy, take the field of their former glories, AND OMCE MORE SAVE THEIR COUNTRY ! sailors cannot be bred in a course of navigation liable to such an interruption and confined within; such narrow riittits. The commerce of Russia has advanced consider- ably of late years; their exports consist almost entirely of raw produce; and in 1805, the exports and imports together did not exceed 22 millions sterling, whilst in 1819 they reached nearly sixty- seven millions. The Emperor is the sole legislator, and the ad- ministration of the Government is nearly uniform through all the provinces. Besides the civil, there is a military governor in each department, to whom the military affairs are intrusted, and any deviation iu this respect is to be found only amongst the Cossacks. There is no power in existence, perhaps, which possesses within itself such various and extensive means to secure a permanent influence in the political scale, if, instead of directing her views to aggrandise- ment through further con quests, she were sedulously to cultivate the resources which the amazing variety of her soils, climates, and population, might be made subservient in the production of. Her continual conquests are, no doubt, the result of the nature of the Government, the condition of the people, and the natural tendency which exists in all human beings to seize, if possible, by precipitate and violent means, what can only otherwise be attained at the expense of much time and labour, and by regular and progressive measures. The ice is now, however, broken. The inter- course which her armies have had with the more southern people of Europe, during the late wars, has been the means of introducing the germs of knowledge— that plant which strikes a firm and deep root, and is propagated with rapidity and in silence. The more extended and frequent inter- course betwixt distant nations, which the improve- ments in commerce and navigation have opened, cannot fail to undermine and destroy local preju- dices. And experience now begins to teach the people of different countries, that their prosperity and wealth, so far from depending on the depression and poverty of their neighbours, are esseutially con- nected with their industry and opulence. fSJitffeUaneoHB Inuiligcute. RETROSPECT OF POLITICAL EVENTS. SKETCH OF THE POWER, RESOURCES, AND INTERESTS OF THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE. Let it not be imagined, that the country will be satisfied with a government of departments ; some efficient statesman must be placed at the helm, who can be equally bold in his communication with his sovereign and his colleagues— who is resolved to be faithfully and honestly served iu the subordinate offices, and who, by his own example, will dissipate the fears and animate the hopes of his friends and supporters. To such an individual parliament and the country would turn with satisfaction aud with confidence, and from him they would hope to reap the benefits of that happy event which delivered the country from the blighting influence of the Tory faction, and raised, perhaps, too sanguine an expectation of an enlightened, firm, and consistent system of foreign and domestic policy, ft. [ From the Bristol Journal of January bth.] It has been generally our custom, at this season, to take a retrospect ofthe year that is past; and we remember not the time, when there were not numerous events it had fallen to our lot to record, upon which, as Englishmen, we could look back with pride aud satisfaction. Would that we could conscientiously say, we can at this period so congratulate the readeis of this Journal.— We hesitate not to avow, that we belong to the old school; smitten at times, we may have been, with the glare of glory, aud promise of prosperity which the liberal principles of the present day and their supporters have ostentatiously displayed before us; but we have no sooner trusted in them, than we have discovered the fallacy of their pretensions, and the non- fulfilment of their hopes and promises; our land- marks broken down; our best bulwarks destroyed; national rights compromised or given up; old friendships forgotten; faithful allies deserted, and British honour tarnished; sueh, we regret to say, are some of the calamities which, as a nation, are now impending over us, and which have been brought upon us by the falsely- called liberal principles of the Administration, in whose hands the destinies of this great country are now placed. In the year too, that has passed, we have had to deplore the loss of two of the firmest friends to the Protestant Establishment, that it ever possessed. We allude, of course, to the illustrious Prince who stood next in succession to the throuej and to the upright Premier who, for so many years, successfully guided the helm of State.— Since their demises, for they may both virtually be said to be lost to the nation, a series of distress and errors has befallen the country, such as it uever before experienced. War is again staring us iu the face our revenue is decreasing; our manufactures paralised ; our commerce declining ; our mercantile marine rotting iu our ports ; and many branches of our agriculture not paying for their culture; and all this, we verily believe to have been occasioned by the attempts which are now making to carry into effect a set of theories and experiments, which are as repugnant to the character of the British Constitution, as they are subversive of the princi pies under which the nation has hitherto prospered and been happy. Such being the retrospect of the year that is past, we would gladly forget it if we could, and fly to the prospect of relief that is before U3. But here again, shame and sorrow, fear and dismay, sta, e us IU the face. The great Council of the Nation, it is true, is about to be assembled, and upon their deliberation we have been accustomed to depend, and anticipate those measures which may relieve, if not extricate us, from our difficulties, But judging torn the occur- rences of its last Session, constituted as the Ministry now is, what can we expect from it ? The leader who held them together, and through whose eloquence alone they were able, though with difficulty, to carry their projects, and impose ihose laws which have so lamentably failed in their objects, this Leviathan of their parly is also defunct ;— and instead of the con- stitutional Advisers of the Crown being able to meet the Parliament with a compact, bold, aud determined phalanx of strength, the events of the last month have discovered such disunion and division of their coun- cils, such fear and distrust, and the Premier himself appears so dismayed and disheartened, that it is more than doubtful whether they will have courage to detail the woes that they have brought upon us, and to brave the rebukes of their indignant hearers. The cant of the day, and of ihe present Ministry and their echoes, the Political Economists, unfortunately is, that the new liberal system is neccssary iu order to harmonize our laws and institutions, our commercial regulations and shipping interests, with the improved condition of intellect aud the " march of events" occurring in other countries, which till within these few years knew not the advantages of political freedom which England for centuries has enjoyed ; that inno- vations ought to be voluntarily made in order to avoid compulsory ones. If we are to adopt this new liberal system, to whose guidance does it lead ; to the spe- culative doctrines of our Bent hams, and our Ricardos, and their disciples— to the Economists aud the Phi- losophers !! By espousing these doctrines, the nation, if they were generally espoused, would be guilty of au inconsistency the most glaring aud absurd. We maintained a long and terrible war to put dowu the tenets of the Philosophers. In this war we risked [ From the Sphynx.] In 1822, the population of the whole Russian Em- pire was estimated 54 § millions. Of this number about 47,300,000 were considered to belong to her territories in Europe including Finland and Poland, giving less than persons to a square mile of sur- face. Little more than seven millions were, there- fore, scattered over the enormous extent of couutry, stretching from the Don and the Wolga to the borders of China,— the shores of Kamschatka, and the sea of Oekhotzh,— a tract comprehending more than one- third of the whole continental portions of our globe. The simple fact is sufficient to enable us to determine the value of the acquisitions she has been making in Asia, and of which we have heard so much. The greatest portion of her population ( above 40 millions) belongs to the Greek Church, the religion of the state, and paramount to all other sects. There are also about six millions of Catholics aud United Greeks; two millions and a half of Lutherans; above three millions of Mahommedans ; and the remaining portion of the population comprises various sects, including . Schamans or Heathens and the worshippers of the Grand Lama. Every sect, Christian or Heathen, enjoys equal civil rights, and the same protection in the exercise of their various modes of worship— a circumstance equally creditable to the Government aud to the predominant Church. The population is divided into six classes— nobles, clergy, citizens, peasants, serfs, and slaves. All nobles, from the priuce to the baron, are upon an equal footing, and enjoy equal privileges^ Their lands are exempt from taxation, and their person from military ballots aud corporal puuisbments. Their slaves, which are probably the most valuable portion of their possessions, are, however, liable to the capitation tax, and to military services. The clergy are free from taxation and corporal penalties. The citizens are split into various classes, according to their wealth, and possess some privileges which vary with its amount; they are uot exempt from the military conscription, but may procure substitutes. The peasants, or free people of the country, are mostly defendants from the ancient race of pro- prietors: they cultivate their own lauds, but do cot enjoy the right of possessing slaves. The serfs are in number above 12 millions, and are to be found almost entirely on lands belonging to the crown; some cultivating the soil, others labouring iu mines and manufactories. They appear to be placed in a middle degree betwixt liberty and slavery, may acquire property, and rise to the ranks of citizens. The last and most numerous class is that of the slaves, and they are estimated at 23 millions. The law considers them as things, not persons. They may be bought, sold, and exchanged like cattle. In fact, as regards principles and procedure, notwith- standing the improvements introduced by Catherine and Alexander, the law is exceedingly barbarous. With respect to the finances of the Russiau empire, Very accurate information cannot be expected, ap the Government is accountable to no tribunal, either for its expenditure or exactions. The principal taxes are the capitation tax, and a property tax of not quite two per cent, on the capital of traders. Besides payments in money, the Crown derives benefit from personal services, monopoly of corn spirits, profits on coinage, postages, stamps, & c. The whole of the revenue in 1820 was not reckoned at more than 14 millions of pounds sterling, whilst the expenditure for many years before was con- siderably beyond lhat sum, and a debt is now ac- cumulated, supposed to be not much short of 200 millions sterling. This amount of debt, with a cir- culation almost entirely of a depreciated paper currency, expose her to many disadvantages. The Russian army, in 1820, was nearly a million of men, besides a militia organized in all the pro- vinces, excepting Siberia. The expense of this vast force is proportionably small; the articles of all kinds of equipments and arms being comparatively cheap and coarse, and the pay of both officers and men low. The navy, which is divided betwixt the Baltic and Black Sea, does not exceed thirty- five ships ofthe line, besides frigates; and until she shall possess a free navigation through the Bosphorus it is not likely to be increased, as her ports in the Baltic are frozen up for half the year, and the principal mate- rials for building and equipment come from the southern provinces. Besides, a sufficient number of GRF. AT TOM OF LINCOLN.— Within the last few days it has been discovered that this majestic bell is cracked to the extent of at least one foot at that part upon which the hammer of the clock strikes. Various conjectures are afloat respecting the cause ; but to arrive at a definite conclusion is impossible at present. It has been said, however, that the hammer, by continually beating upon oue part of the bell tor a great number of years, has at length broken it, and it has also been affirmed that an individual, who went to view it on the morning of Christmas day ( the day on which it was discovered to jar), sat upon it. But it is absurd to suppose that such an effect could have been produced by the weight of any single individual. We shall feel much satisfaction in hearing some ostensible reason given why such a mishap has befallen that which has so many years been the pride of Lincoln and the admiration of every traveller. For the infor- mation of those who are unacquainted with the stupendousness of this bell, which for sweetness of tone has not been rivalled, we subjoin the following particulars:— its weight is nine thousand eight hundred aud ninety- four pounds. The circum- ference of the mouth twenty- two feet eight inches, and its internal capacity equal to four hundred and tweuty- four gallons, ale measure. It was cast in the reign of James I. by Henry Oldfield, of Notting- ham, and William Newcombe, of Leicester, bell- fouuders of celcbrity, when a temporary foundry was erected in the Minster yard for the purpose.— Stamford News. Oil Tuesday week, the new Chapel of St. Mark the Evangelist, Myddelton Square, Pentonville, Loudon, which is to form a chapel of ease to St. James's, Clerkenwell, was consecrated by the Lord Bishop of London. The style of architecture is gothic. The interior is beautifully simple. It con- tains three aisles, bordered on eaoh side by a row of pews. At the extremity of the chapel, stands the altar, over which there is a window of stained glass; in the centre the arms of the Bishop of Londou, beautifully executed; to the right, the names of the minister and churchwardens of St James's, Clerkenwell; and to the left, the arms of Mr. Milne, the architect. At either side of the altar, a few feet removed, stand the pulpit and reading- desk. Two galleries support the upper portion of the building— in the cross one, which is immediately over the entrance- door, stands the organ. The ceiling, which is perfectly horizontal, is neatly stuccoed over with simple devices. POWDER MILLS— Although great care is taken to exclude from these manufactories all articles of iron, and to substitute copper and other metals in the metallic parts of the machinery, which will not strike fire, yet it is well known that explosions, attended with disastrous consequences, are very frequent. Excited by an occurrence of this nature, Colonel Aubert, of the French artillery, was in- duced, in conjunction with Captain Tardy, to re- sume some experiments which he had successfully tried to ascertain whether gunpowder would not explode by the shock of copper. The result was, that powder would inflame by the stroke of copper upon copper, or upon the alloys of copper.— This gave rise to further investigations in presence of the Committee of Safety, and it was asceriained that gunpowder could be exploded by the stroke of iron upon iron, iron upon copper, copper upon copper, iron upon marble, and, by using the ba- listic pendulum, by lead upon lead, aud, with suitable precautions, even by lead upon wood.— The experiments were successful both with English and French powder, and clearly shew, that in all the manipulations of a powder manufactory, all violent shocks and percussions should be carefully avoided, since they may occasion the disengage- ment of sufficient heat to produce the inflammation of powder. WORCESTER BRIDGE.— The carriage and horse- toU at this bridge ceased at 12 o'clock on Monday the 1st, after having been levied for forty- six years. This scene, taking place at the moment of the birth of the New Year, was very animating. There is a fund reserved which will produce £ 125 per aunum for the repair of the Bridge, & c. besides which one of ihe toll- houses watf on- Monday let for £ 25 per annum. The other toll house is used for the weighing- machine. The election of a representative for this borough will take place on Tuesday, the 29th instant. We need scarcely add, that Mr. Huskisson will be re- elected without opposition.— Liverpool Albion. The following is a copy of a General Order issued to his majesty's army in ludia, by Lord Combermere, immediately on receipt of intelligence of the Death of the Duke of York : « « Head- Quarters, Calcutta, May 14, 1827. " It is with feelings of the deepest sorrow that Lord Comhermere announces to his Majesty's arniv, the death of its illustrious Commander- in- Chief, his R. H. ih Duke of York. The heart of every officer and soldie of the British army will tell him, in language that can- not he expressed, how much his profession has lost of military virtue, of character, of consequence, and sup- port, by the departure of this distinguished Prince. The brave will mourn their patron and leader— military order and high discipline must now look to the benefits conferred on ihe army by their firm establishment, and in the exercise, preserve them ; for I lie distinguished chief, who connected and cemented both with national bravery, is no more. A name, however, so imperishable in ihe army, will never die. The British soldier will never forget the Duke of York. That cherished name will always he the rallying ground for every thing that is exemplary in discipline, and glorious in war.*' Inlroductory Latin Books, PUBLISHED BY J.

When Lord Anglesey accepted the Vice Royalty of Ireland, the Duke of Gordon was pressed by Lord Goderich, and a still higher personage, to be his suc- cessor j but the political attachments of his grace pre- vailed over every other consideration in his honour- able mind, and on his final refusal it was generally understood that Sir George Murray, than whom no man could be more qualified, was to assume the vacant ofiice. Last week, however, Lord Goderich, who had probably been looking over the list of Peers pre- paratory to the ensuing session, and who might be of opinion that it was desirable to secure every stray vgte in his power, transmitted to a noble lord, who was the companion in arms of the Duke of Wellington throughout the Peninsula, and whose emiuent services have earned bim the gratitude of his country, an offer of the post. This offer the noble lord declined, and accompanied his reply with a declaration that it was impossible for him to give his support to the ministry, as at that time constituted.— Brighton Herald. WORCESTER AND BIRMINGHAM CANAL.— At the half- yearly assembly of Proprietors, held at their office, at Birmingham, on Tuesday last, a dividend was declared of two pounds per share, to be paid ou the 1st of February. The report announced large and " steadily increasing" tonnages', and lhat arrange- ments had beeu accomplished for procuring an adequate and permanent supply of water, by which the canal will in future be kept at a proper level in all seasons. To secure this desirable object, the Com- mittee were authorised to make an embankment across a valley at Bittal, by which a reservoir of about fifty- acres in extent, having copious feeders, will be formed above the level of the canal, at a very moderate cost. It was also stated, that in a short time the debt of the Company ( about £ 100,000) might be put in a train of gradual liquidation.— The tonnage during the half- year ending Nov. 30, amouuted to £ 11,423. During the year there was an increase of £ 4600 compared with the previous year. Shares are now selling at £ 54, and are expected to be higher. The disembodying of the Yeomanry Corps has ex. cited very unpleasant feelings in some quarters. Upon occasion of disbanding the Woodlev troop of Berks Yeomanry, the officers dined together. When Major Fulwar Craven's health was drank, he said, " I care not who hears me, for 1 am au Englishman, and will always speak my feelings, that there never was a more paltry measure adopted by any set of ministers than that of disbanding the Yeomanry of Great Britain." In the steam artillery, which Mr. Perkins is con- structing for the French government, he guarantees Ihe perfect safety of the generator, ils indestructibility, the ability to keep the steam up at any required tem- perature for any length of time, and its great economy. The piece of ordnance is to throw sixty balls of four pounds each in a minute, with the correctness of the rifled musket, and lo a pro- portionate distance. A musket is also attached to the same generator for throwing a stream of lead fioni the bastion of a fort, and is made so far porta- ble as to be capable of being moved from oue bastion to another. This musket is to throw from oue hun- dred lo one thousand bullets per minute as occasion may require, and that for any length of time. Mr. Evving, of York- place, Portman- square, Lon- don, who died lately, is said to have left personal property lo the amount of £ 600,000, the greatest part of which he has bequeathed to his nephew, Mr. James Ewing, now in India with his lady, ( a daughter of the late William Morton, Esq of Worcester), aud to his niece, Mrs. W. Kerwan, jointly. Mr. Siouor, of Slonur Park, Oxfordshire, is his executor. A short time since, the guard of a stage coach, desired some poachers, of Mere, Wilts, to procure him a large basket of game, which they did, and demanded a sovereign for it, which he paid, and it was divided amongst them; but ou the arrival of the basket in London, the honest guard found lhat it was packed with hay and straw. Five Letters aie deposited in the archives of the Grenville family at Stovve, which establish, beyond the possibility of doubt, ihe real author of Junius. This eminent individual was politically connected with Mr. George Grenville, the grandfather of the present Duke of Buckingham, from whom these autograph proofs have descended to the present possessor. The venerable Statesman, nearly allied lo the Duke of Buckingham, has requested the discovery should not be published during his lifetime. It it*, however, confidently asserted, that iu all the cou troversies relating to these celebrated Letters, the author of them has not beeu named. Morning Chronicle. The Duke of Wellington's 9on, the Marquis of Douro, will attain bis majority on ihe 3d of next February, the young Marquis having been born on lhat day of the year 1807. Splendid preparations are making at Stralhfieldsay, in Berks, the seat of hii Grace, to celebrate ihe day witb becoming splendoi and a select party will be entertained on Ihe oc. casion bv the noble Duke. Oil Monday, as Sir R. B. P. Phillips, Bart. Picton Castle, Pembrokeshire, was passing over a temporary wooden bridge at St. Clear's, Carmarthenshire, the ihe wheels of the carriage came in contact with one of ihe baluster posts, and carried it off. By the con cussion Ihe carriage swung over Ihe edge of Ihe bridge, and was actually for a considerable time suspended by the traces. In this perilous position it remained until assistance was procured, when, by dint of great exe lion, it was dragged up again with ropes, and the worthy Baronet and Lady Phillips, who wilh great presence of mind kept their seat, were relieved from situation the most novel, dangerous, and awful lhat can well be imagined, for had ihe traces given way they must have been precipitated into the abyss belo and the destruction of themselves and carriage would have inevitably ensued, for the river was heavily flooded at ihe lime. HEDGE CUTTING.—[ From a Treatise on the Management of Hedges, and Iledge- Row Timber, by Francis Blaikie.]— There is a general rule which should be particularly attended to in per- forming the operation of cutting' white- thorn hedg- es, or indeed in cutting almost every bush or tree, and never should be departed from but upon particular occasions. This grand or golden rule is comprised in two short words of one syllable— Cut up. 1 mark this expression strongly, because 1 consider the practice to which it alludes of great import- ance ; audi well know that many intellig- eut men who have never given the matter a thought, do not ( even at the present day) knosv that there is any difference in the effect between cutting up and cutting down. A moment's reflection will show, that it is impossible for an edg- e tool to pass through a piece of limber without causing a severe pressure against one or both sides of the wood, because the tool occupies space. The teeth of a saw drag- the chips out of the cut, and give the space requisite for the tool to pass; but an edge tool can only pass by pressure.— Suppose a piece of timber to be laid horizontally, and a heavy edge tool to be let fall perpendicularly upon the middle of it, the pressure will be equal on both sides: this is the effect caused by shears, in clipping hedges: the ends of the stub, and the shoot or branch cut off, are alike injured.— Again; suppose the piece of timber to be laid upon a slope or inclined plane; the pressure from Ihe blow ofthe axe will be proportionably greater upon the lower than upon the upper end of the piece of wood, according to the incline of the plane on which the timber is laid. And in cutting- the stem of a bush or young tree which is growing upright, if the blow is struck doivn, nearly the whole pressure falls on the stub, which is thereby shattered to pieces, while the stem, cut off is left sound ; but when the blow is struck up ( as it always should be) the effect is reversed ; the stub is then left sound and smooth, and the stem cut off is shattered. When the trees or bushes are cut down, and the stubs left shattered ( as they inevitably must be when so treated) the wet descends through the clefts of the stub into the stool or crown of the roots; it there generates eauker, and produces premature decay in the plaot. The young shoots which spring from such stubs maybe numerous, but they will be puny and feeble, scarce able to support their own weight, and the first high wind, or heavy fall of snow, will break them down. This is fre- quently the ease when a hedge is cut in this manner ; the snow bears the whole mass of young shoots the ditch, when, if not entirely spoiled, they are are very much injured, and the only remedy is to cut the whole to the stub a second time. Even under this calamity, it is but seldom the farmer attributes his mislorluue to the right cause • he attaches the whole blame to the elements, never dreaming that he himself is in the least culpable from inattention. When hedges are cut up, the stub is left sound and smooth, the wet does not penetrate through the stub into the crown of the roots, canker is not encouraged, and the young shoots grow up strong and healthy, and able to contend against the vicissitudes of weather, The Gazette of Ijriday afternoon announces that bis Majesty has been pleased to. appoint ihe Rev. William Ward, D. D. to. the Bishoprick of the l « le of Man and Sodor, void by the translation of Dr. Murray to the See of Rochester. Lord Erskine, at present Envoy to the King of Wurtemberg, has been appointed Envoy to the King of Bavaria; and Edward C. Disbrowe, Esq. now Secretary of Embassy at the Court of St. Peter. sbnrgh , to be Envoy to the King of Wurtemberg. Walter Francis Duke of Buccleuch and Queens- bury has been appointed Lieutenant and Sheriff Prin- cipal of the shire of Mid Lothian, vice the Earl of Morton, deceased. Mr. Newton, ihe editor of the London Journal of Arts and Sciences, ridicules the idea of a Steam Coach being constructed to go with as much expe- dition and economy as those drawn by horses; he says, u no steam- coach is at present in existence capable of being applied to the public service, nor is there any one at present in a stale of progress that promises to run as a public stage coach."— This is a pretty strong opinion from a very competent judge. EXEMPLARY CHARITY.— Sir Charles Morgan, Bart. M. P. and his Lady, with their usual benevolent feeling for the comfort of the poor at this season of the year, have given 120 yards of warm Welsh flannel, made into garments, to Ihe sick and aged of Leck- hampton parish, near Cheltenham. The annual donation of cloth, coats, aud gowns, ( 150,) was givei* by the worthy Baronet, on New Year's Day, to the poor, in and near Newport, Monmouthshire, as well as relief in food, & c. In severe Colds, Rheumatism, & c. from which numbers suffer so severely, partieularly during the Winter Months, a more salutary Remedy cannot be resorted to, or one that has effected more extraor- dinary Cures, than the Genuine Bateman's Pectoral Drops, which may be had of most respectable Medicine Venders either in Town or Couutry. Like mauy other valuable Medicines, however, it is very much counterfeited, which renders it the more necessary for Purchasers to be particular iu inquir- ing for " DICKY'S Bateman's Drops" which have the words DICEY aud Co. in the Stamp, and are the only genuine sort.

At the request of several of out friends, we have, for the accommodation of Agriculturists, MaltstersT and Corn- Dealers, compiled the following Table, by which is shewn the value of a Bushel of Wheat, Barley, Malt, or Oats, sold by any of the Customary Measures in use in this District ofthe Kingdom*, as compared with the value of . nick Grain sold by the Imperial Bushel or Imperial Quarter ; and it will also at once shew the relative value of any Grain in the different Markets, by comparing the prices in the respective columns.— In making the calculations for this Table, those fractions only were excluded which did not amount to one farthing ; and as the' proportions are given as compared with every vari- ation of 2d. in the Shrewsbury customary bushel, from 2s. up to 12 s. inclusive, it will be found suffi- ciently copious for every practical purpose.
