MONDAY, Fed. 4 Numerous petitions from various parts of Ireland weic presented on behalf of the Catholic claims. Mr. John Smith, in presenting a petition from the Unitarians of Hackney, for the Repeal of the Corporation and Test Acts, denied the truth of the report that the Dissenters had determined to unite witli the Roman Ca- tholics in their application to Parliament for relief from civil and religious. disabilities. He stated, that although the Protestant Dissenters had resolved to act indepen- dently of tl> c Roman Catholics, he believed a large ma- jority of them to be favourable to the claims of that body. Lord W. Powlett inquired whether there was any in- tention to make reparation to the Sublime Porte, for the destruction of the fleet at Navarino. Lord Palmerston disclaimed any such intention. Mr:. Liddell rose and begged to express his view of the changes that had taken place ir. the Government. ( Hear.) If any authority, said he, were wanting to justify the course 1 am taking, it. would be found in the political events that have taken place within the last twelve months, in which we have had four Prime Ministers, and three important changes in the Councils of the country. Twelve months have not yet gone over our heads since the great struggle between the late Mr. Canning and the powerful party which was opposed to him. He had many ad- mirers and supporters; 1, myself, was one of those, and I may add, that he had not a more ardent admirer or sincere supporter than the humble individual who now addresses this House. It is true that Mr. Canning is no more, but the memory of his principles yet survives ; and if the country does not proht by his talents, it may by his example. The more I have contemplated that career in reflection and retirement, the more reason I have found to admire it than even when I witnessed it in the House, and heard its fame resounding through tlie country. I lament to state, that he was the main strength and stay of the Administration he had formed. 1 am sorry to say that, towards the close of that Admi- nistration, after his death it certainly did not gain much in the esteem or confidence of the country. Its dissolu tion, which came upon it untouched by hostile hands, was as much a relief to its friends as it could be a mea- sure of satisfaction to its opponents. The noble Duke at the head of the Treasury was then called on by his Ma- jesty to take the seals of office— and I may say, that of ti nt illustrious individual no man can have a higher opi- nion or greater esteem than myself. I regard him as the Themistocles of England— the saviour of the country in the njost arduous and perilous moment of its existence, by his skill and valour. ( Hear.) But in spite of these Feelings, I must condemn the change the Duke of Wel- lington has made from his late post of Commander- in- Chief to his present station as first Lord of the Treasury. His post WHS so well cast before— his name was so hap- pily associated with the Army of the country by recollec- tiors so gratifying, that it is impossible not to feel how correct the public opinion is, that he could not be better any where than where he was already placed. ( Hear.) It is a question, indeed, whether the Duke of Wellington hsd not some such opinion himself; for it has been re- ported, and I believe not contradicted, that Mr. Canning wrote a letter to the noble Duke, pointing out how un- wise it would be for him to attempt any change in his situation. The Duke of Wellington, it is understood, acknowledged the justice of Mr. Canning's views, and probably was actuated by that conviction when he made the speech, of which so much has been said, in the House of Lords. ( Hear, hear.) He then confessed that the task of the Premiership was far too much for his habits and wishes; but tlie force of circumstances, and his desire to nerve his country, have, during the present year, perhaps, compelled him to act differently from what he declared it his intention to do last year. I must acknowledge that he is a great and wonderful man. On his Atlas shoulders be seems capable of bearing a world of ordinary cares. After raising to the highest pitch the credit of the British arms, it is reserved for him, probably, to prove tlie most extraordinary individual of the times in which he has Jived. ( Hear, hear.) There is another member of the Administration, of whom I must say a few words— I allude to the Right Hon. Gentleman, the Secretary of State for the Home Department; and I allude to him, in order that I may express my conviction, that his return to office has been hailed with satisfaction by a large por- tion of tlie people of this country. ( Hear, hear.) On one peat nt; d important question I have the misfortune to entertain sentiments very different from those of that Right Hon. Gentleman ; but I am well aware, when I say this, that the very opinions lie has avowed on this question, have caused him to be looked on, by those who pre- eminently deem themselves loyal and constitutional, an one of the firmest pillars of the state; though I must say that, in my opinion, if he had founded his claims to the confidence of his country on this part 6f his public conduct alone, he would have gained but a small share of it. To his friends I would say, " Remove to some other place this pillar, which, precious as it may be in ili materials, and polished in its construction, acts in its present position as an obstacle to exclude thousands and millions of our countrymen, who have for years been waiting at the threshold of the Constitution, imploring in vain to be admitted to the enjoyment of its blessings." ( Cheers.) I observed that the noble Lord ( Palmerston) ir> ade no answer the other night to the questions put to liim'on the subject of free trade. I trust that the princi- j)!; s which are so designated will undergo a judicious Modification; and I am free to confess that, as to this gtfttnt, the present Government has my entire confidence. With respect to the administration of the affairs of lie- land, sure I nm that something must be done for that distracted country : either concessions must be granted, « r coercion employed. If any such injudicious measure as that which I have mentioned as one alternative should b ' resorted to, namely— further coercion, it will meet with my unqualified opposition. Whatare we to believe, if not the language uniformly uttered by all the repre- sentatives of the I risli counties ? What are we to believe, if rot what they tell us— that we must make our choice fietBcen peace and war, order and rebellion, tranquillity and convulsion. ( Hear.) Under such circumstances, I dan not suppose that any Government would be so frantic ar. d so culpable as to employ any but such mear. 6 of conciliation and concession as will insure the safety and welfare of all. On this head, then, I have no doubt that the present Government will feel itself bound to act with forbearance and moderation. In a Committee Of Supply, the absence, of the Army fend Treasury Estimates, which are to be laid before the House in a few days, called forth some animadversions from Mr. Hume and several other Members. Mr. George Bankes obtained leave to bring in a Rill ( o relieve the Roman Catholics from the double assess- ment of Land Tax.— Adjourned. TUESDAY, Feb. fi Mr. Dawson presented six pe- titions from the county of Westmeath, in favour of Catholic Emancipation. Mr. G. Lamb presented a similar petition from the Roman Catholic inhabitants of Dungarvon. Mr. V. Stuart presented similar petitions from Lis- more and 25 other parishes in the county of Waterford and county of Wexford. Mr. Whittle Harvey said that after several Hon Gentlemen had harrowed up the feelings of the House with their melancholy descriptions of the deplorable con- dition of Ireland, they came to this conclusion— that there was no other mode of effectually relieving this dis- tress, no other hope of rendering prosperous and happy tile seven or eight millions of Irish Catholics— for it was act of much importance whether a itiillion or two were tIi: own into the scale, to give ponderance to the argument, thr. n by conceding the claims of the Catholics, by which the evils of Ireland were to vanish. ( A laugh.) If he could be persuaded that this indeed was tlie case, though he was for many reasons adverse to these claims. ydt, loving aside ail his feelings on the subject as exploded prejudices, lie would say with the Honourable Gentleman to whom he alluded, that the advantages were so para- mount thai they should be purchased at every sacrifice. But having attended carefully to what had passed in Par- liament and elsewhere, he must declare that he considered this doctrine « et only groundless in itself, but highly prejudicial in its effects to the real welfare of that unfor- tunate country. As long us the state of Ireland remained what it was— and it was, he verify believed, as deplora- ble and wretched as it had then been described— to say that either by the concession or rejection of the Catholic Claims, it would be pacified and raised from destruction and wretchedness to tranquility and prosperity, was a delusion of the grossest kind, anil of tlie most mischievous nature. ( Hear hear!). Mr. Spring Rice said, that he would undertake to prove, that all the evils and grievances of Ireland were bound up with Catholic disabilities, and that the removal of the latter would achieve the redress of all. ( Hear, hear.) He ( Mr. Rice) would prove by argument— he would prove by evidence— that the whole of the disorga- nisation of unhappy Ireland might he traced to the pe- nalties— to the exclusions— to the injustice of that abomi- nable code, of which the Catholics complain. ( Hear.) The Hon. Member for Colchester had spoken of economy. The principle of that Hon. Gentleman had, in 17!) R, ren- dered it necessary to keep in Ireland an army of 100,000 men ( Hear)— a larger army than the Duke of Wellington ever had under his command oil the continent of Europe. ( Hear.) The principle of the Hon. Gentleman had ren- dered it necessary for Government to raise an additional loan, within that year, of 10,000,000?. sterling. ( Hear.) Had a different principle been acted on, the army and the loan might have been altogether spared. ( Cheers.) That was his ( Mr. Rice's) economy, and founded on better principles, and founded, h, e would say, upon better views, than that of the Hon. and learned Member for Colchester. ( Hear.) Mr. John Smith presented petitions from the Roman Catholic inhabitants of Ballinrobe, county of Mayo, and of Lurgan, in the comity of Cavan, Ireland, praying for the removal of Catholic disabilities. The House adjourned at five o'clock. London. WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 6. His Majesty held a Court at three o'clock yesterday afternoon, at his Royal Lodge, in Windsor Park, which was attended by the Lord Chhancellor, the Duke of Wellington, Earl Bathurst," Lord Ellenborough, Mr. Secretary Peel, the Earl of Aberdeen, the Lord Steward of the Household, the Bishop of Landaff, Mr. Frankland Lewis, and Sir Wm. Keppel. The Rev. Dr. Copleston was introduced to the King, and kissed hands on being appointed Dean of St. Paul's, and on being elected to the see of Landaff. The command of the Army will not be held by commission; but we have heard it rumoured, that there will be a Commander of the Forces, but no Com- mander in Chief. Lord Hill is said to have accepted the former office— Courier. The Duke of Clarence arrived at the Admi- ralty on Sunday evening, from Portsmouth. The French papers contain accounts from Smyrna, stating that the Greeks are still disunited, ar. d divided into parties; that Lord Cochrane is heartily tired of them; and that, on the other hand, the Greeks no longer attach any consequence to his assistance. The commercial letters from Paris present a deplorable pieture of some of the manufacturing towns of France, where the efforts made to enter into competi- tion with England, in the article of cotton, threaten the most ruinous consequences to all concerned. German papers to the 30th ult. have heen received this morning. In an article dated Corfu, Dec. 31, it is stated that tlie garrison of Chios has delivered up that fortress to the Greeks by capitulation. The blockade of Missolonghi, on the land side, is already begun by General Church. A small squadron of ships under his orders will maintain the communication with the army, which blockades Patras on the side of Cape Papa. The Greeks have now 60,000 men under arms. Jamaica papers are received to the 25th De- cember. The House of Assembly is again at issue with his Majesty's Ministers. The slave law passed by the Legislature of the Island having been rejected in England, a unanimous vote has passed the Assembly declining all further legislation on the subject. The Calcutta Gazette, just arrived, gives a melancholy detail of two dreadful fires which occurred at Bankok, the capital of the Siamese dominions, destroy- ing fifteen hundred houses. Great activity prevails at present in Paisley, in almost every department in business : the demand for weavers at present is greater than it has been since the year 1825. The consequence is, that during the present month a considerable advance has taken place on the prices paid for weaving. This favourable state of tilings has extended to the neighbouring villages; the population are fully employed, and are now able to earn better wages than they have had for some time past.— Glasgow Chron. A fatal instance of hydrophobia from thebite of a cat occurred on Friday afternoon, at Clifton, in the person of Richard Johnson. In the early stage of the disorder the application of a poultice was ordered, instead of excision, which is the safest remedy, and that which ought always first to be resorted to in this dreadful com- plaint. Two more persons were bitten by the same rabid animal. Johnson bore an excellent character, both as a husband and a father. He has left a widow and seven children ill a state of utter destitution. AWFUL CIRCUMSTANCE.— On Monday a young woman of ill fame, named Smaldridge, having heen charged by her mother, who was blind, with stealing a silver spoon, denied it with dreadful imprecations, say- ing that she wished God might strike her dead that moment if she hud. Awful to relate, she fell from her seat immediately after, and expired; and the duplicate of the spoon was found in her bosom. An inquest has been held on the body, end a verdict of " Died by the Visitation of God" returned— Sherborne Mercury. Rich Parish in Cornwall.— From the parish of Gwennap alone, the copper ores sold in the last seven years amount to 1,920,000/. In the last year ( 1H27) the amount was upwards of 307,000/., besides what was re- ceived for tin, floor- spar, & c., and which may be esti- mated at 50,000/. more. The Geographical Society of Paris, which has existed little more than six years, has, in the course of that short period, established prizes to the amount of lfi, 400 francs; the members are at present 340 in number. Twenty- two travellers are now pursuing their inquiries, under the auspices of the Society, in Peru, Colombia, Chili, Persia, India, Thibet, Arabia, Georgia, Numidia, Abyssinia, Senegal, & c. not to mention the Antilles, and a voyage round the world, In Rome, if a person is killed by furious driving, the law is to bayonet the horses which have caused the injury, regardless of the rational animal who had the charge of them. An Italian cook having sent up a hare at dinner, ornamented with the paws as they had been cut off, on being asked a reason for so doing, said it was done to show that the animal was a lmre, and not a cat; which latter are eaten as well as the former. There is hardly any description of bird, beast, or fish, however little known to us as articles of food, which ; nay not be found upon the stalls of the markets at Rome; such, for instance, as owls, vul- tures, kites, bitterns, torn- fits, cats, hedge- hogs, ravens, sharks, & c. The West India Gazette states, that the foundation stone of a Presbyterian Church was laid in Trelawny, in October last. In the same month, the foundation stone of a Wesleyan Chapel was laid in Riette's Town. The American Education Society's annual report states, that the population of the United States is advancing one thousand every day— three hundred and sixty- five thousand every year ! GOOD APPLES.— A correspondent in the Me- chanics' Magazine strongly recommends the producing of apple trees from seeds, as it is certain that the sorts dege- nerate by every successive grafting. He states, tilat in every perfectly ripe apple there will be found one, and sometimes two, round seeds, the others having one or more flatted sides. The round ones will produce an im- proved fruit, while those with the flatted sides will pro- duce the fruit of the crab upon which the graft was inserted. INSANITY.— Sir Andrew Halliday, physician to the Duke of Clarence, in an interesting work which he has just published on the " Present State of Lunatic Asylums," pronounces insanity, when judiciously, and promptly treated, to be " one of the most mild and simple diseases that ever affected the human frame!" Substitute fur Mulberry Trees.— Dr. Stcrler, of Bavaria, has found that the leave of the acer tartari- cum— a hardy tree, common in the nurseries— may not only be substituted for, but are even preferred to, the mulberry, by silk- worms. Too nice a taste, in no matter what, is little less than a misfortune; for he who is pleased with' nothing short of perfection has less pleasure and less happiness than one who is more moderate in his expectations, and who is contented with life as he finds it. THE WAKEFIELDS.— A succession of cala- mities to others has followed the criminal conduct of the elder Wakefield Some time ago Mrs. William Wake- field, wife of his brother, the other prisoner, died of a broken heart, in consequence of her husband's imprison- ment. Last week the father of that lady, the Rev. Mr. Davies, head master of the Grammar- school of Maccles- field, died also, it is said, of a broken heart, occasioned by the premature decease of his daughter. All attempt to escape was made by the pri- soners in Aylesbury gaol on Wednesday evening. They had prepared a sort of ladder, about twenty- six feet long, made of the stools on which they sit, lashed together with the ticking Of their beds torn into strips; a number of blankets, torn up and tied together, made a rope of about thirty feet; the first was to enable them to gain the top of the building, apd the latter to assist them in the des- cent. The ladder was hoisted against the wall of the gaol, and ono prisoner ascended ; lie had safely reached the top, and had pushed down the loose bricks placed on tlie parapet wall, in order to get into a gutter, when Mr. Sheriff and the sub- gaolers, who had gained intelligence of the proceeding, secured him by pulling him over the parapet into the gutter where they liad been concealed; the ether prisoners fled into the interior of tlie gaol. The ladder of forms and the string of blankets were exposed to view between the gates of the prison, and hundreds have gone to see them. THE MURDER IN BATH.— Among; the circum- stances which led to a suspicion that Gillham, the butler, murdered the unfortunate Maria Bagnall, was, that his waistcoat and breeches had marks of blood upon them ; but this he accounted for by saying, that when he went down into the kitchen with the watchmen, he took hold of the body, to raise it. On Wednesday, he was rigidly examined ; and being asked if he had any other property besides what was at his mistress's house, he replied posi- tively in the negative. He was then committed for re- examination. Information was shortly after given that Gillham had a considerable quantity of goods at the house of a man named Roberts, an ostler, residing at No. 6, Williams's place, back of Northampton- street; and the property was conveyed to the Guildhall. Officers were then sent to the prisoner, to repeat to him the question which had been previously put to him respecting his property, and again he denied having any in Bath, except that which belonged to him at Marlborough buildings. On Thursday he was brought up for re- examination, and the property was so placed as to meet his eye on his entrance into the room. 1- Ie instantly saw it, but at first betrayed little emotion. The property was contained in three hampers, three boxes, a frail basket, and a large saucepan. ' I he first hamper opened contained 7 bottles of wine; the other two held china, earthen and tin ware, & c., in great variety. One of the boxes contained mould candles, and another dips ; in the third box, were knives and forks, fire- irons, chamber candlesticks, and other articles. On the officers opening the second hamper, the prisoner became Vouch agitated ; but on drinking some water, he soon revived. He was asked by the Mayor how he became possessed of the articles; his Worship cautioning him not to answer the question if he felt reluc- tant to do so. The prisoner therefore refused to answer. The china was identified by Mrs. Coxe as her property. Every hour now brought to light fresh evidence of the prisoner's guilt; and there was something in his deport- ment that evidently betrayed inward and irrepressible emotion. On Friday morning, Mr. Bourne, the gaoler, visited his prisoner, and directed his attention to some suitable passages of Scripture, and suggested to him the pro-, priety of consulting some spiritual adviser, to which lie readily assented. The Rev. Mr. Marshall, chaplain to the gaol, was accordingly sent for, and was with him from about 11 to 1 o'clock. At 3 o'clock Mr. Marshall again visited him. The consequence of these interviews was, that in the course of the evening Gillham made a full confession of his guilt to Mr. Bourne, the gaoler. And the savrin evening he repeated his confession to the Rev. Chaplain, and expressed a desire to see the Mayor, for the purpose of making a confession to him. On Sa- turday morning, his Worship and the Town Clerk, re- paired to the gaol: when the prisoner revealed the whole of the circumstances of the murder to them. He was reminded that whatever he then said would hereafter be brought forward as evidence against him ; but he was unmoved by the caution. CONFESSION.—" On the night of Saturday the 2fitli of January I and my wife went up stairs together to go to bed. On our way we met Maria Bagnall; and on pass- ing hei, at about eleven o'clock, we wished her good night. After 1 had gone up stairs, I told my wife that I must go down again, as my bowels were disordered. I accordingly went down stairs, and went into my pantry, from which I took a stick, which I had in my possession, having cut it myself some months since I met her by the kitchen door, wlieu I struck her a blow on the head. I repeated my blows till she fell. I continued striking her; she at the same time screaming out that she would have me hanged. By some means, I know not how, I fell on her. She continued screaming. I knelt upon her body, and taking my pocket knife from my waistcoat pocket, cut her throat with it; leaving the body in the state in which it was found. I then shut the knife, and put it into my waistcoat pocket. On the following day I took it fiom mv pocket, and placed it ill a table drawer in my room. ( The knife having been washed by the prisoner, had no marks of blood upon it when found.) I then placed by her side the bludgeon which was found there. The stick I used was neither so large nor so long as that bludgeon. I cut it up in the morning, and lighted the fire with it. I took a purse out of the pocket of the deceased : it contained only a few halfpence, which I put into my waistcoat pocket. I then washed my hands, and went up stairs into my room; when my wife inquired what was the matter. I told her to say nothing about it to the old woman Nanny; and that she was to say I had not been down stairs at all, but that I had gone to bed before her. I then went down stairs again, and took with me the silver tea- urn, which I placed on the stairs where it was found. I had previously opened the cel. laret, plate cupboard, and drawers. Part of the wine and the spirits I took down stairs, and threw away. As nearly as I can tell, it must have been about 10 minutes after 11 o'clock when I murdered her. It was with the pocket knife alone that I inflicted the wound in her throat. My wife knew nothing at all of the murder until after the pistols were fired, and the watchmen had come into the house." The Mayor and Town Clerk signed the confession. Gillham, in his confession, wholly exculpated his wife not only from any participation in, but even knowledge of, his guilt; and declared that he had not any accom- plice. He appears to have been actuated by revenge; having frequently heard the deceased speak unfavourably of him to Mrs. Coxe, he determined to murder her, anil procured two bludgeons, which he kept in his pantry for the purpose— It also appears that Gillham and his wife were both under notice to quit Mrs. Coxe's service at tiie time of the murder. That the screams of the poor sufferer were not heard by any person in the house, is accounted for by the fact, that the old housemaid, who is very deaf, and Gillam's wife, slept in the garrets, and being shut in by the door at the bottom of the garret stairs, no sound from the kitchen could ascend to them. On Gillham's return to prison, he had a powerful escort of constables, but it was with great difficulty he was pro- tected from the vengeance of the populace. Early on Sunday morning Gillham was conveyed in a chaise to Shepton- Mallet gaol, there to remain until the assize, which will be holden at Taunton on the 27th of next month. Gillham is a native of Taplow, Buckinghamshire, and is in the 25th year of his age. He is about 5 feet 8 inches high, of stout make. He had lived five years, previous to his engagement with Mrs. Coxe, with the Rev. Vansittart Neil, and left that gentleman's service with an excellent character. One of his brothers, gar- dener to a gentleman at Burnham, in Bucks, came to Bath for the purpose of seeing him; he awaited the arrival of the chaise near Devonshire buildings, where a painful interview' took place. It is said that, in the event of the capital conviction of Gillham, an application will be made to have the execu- tion carried into effect in Bath. Mr. Gahagan, the sculptor, took a model of the body of Maria Bagnall as it lay in the kitchen in its blood; he likewise took a model of the head; the skull was not bruised, hut the blood inside was coagulated from the effect of the blows. Mr. Gahagan has also taken a , odel of Gillham. BATTLE OF NAVARIN.— Tt was evident, from the faithless conduct of the Turkish Commander, in the movements of his fleet, during a month previous to the action, that the Treaty for the liberation of Greece from Turkish tyranny and cruelty, could not be carried into effect but by force of arms. This appears to be a uni- versal impression upon our Officers ; was equally. felt, we are assured, by our brave Allies; and hus since been confirmed, by the words of the Egyptian Commander himself. We have it confirmed, by the boarding officers, that the two ships of the line which bore the flags of the Turkish and Egyptian Commanders, had 1050 men killed and wounded. There is no doubt but that the Turkish admiral had for some time contemplated a con- test, and, consequently, with the known characteristics of his countrymen, he had, with the most savage cruelty, determined to blow up his ships, with all their remaining crews, rather than make an honourable surrender to a victorious adversary. All his ships, there is reason to believe, were prepared with combustible trains, to. effect this horrible purpose; and so determined and direful were the means employed, that several of tlie large ships which blew up, not only were torn into fragments, but the concussion upset the smaller vessels which lay near to them, and threw their crews into a scarcely less hor- rible abyss, and equally certain death. It was found that our ships had a great advantage in well- practised gunnery; not a shot was fired by them, that did not some execution— whilst it was evident that the Turks fired high, and at random, by which our ships sustained the greatest loss in their masts and rigging, and those of the crew suffered most who were posted on the poop, forecastle, and quarter- deck. Their guns were loaded with almost every kind of destructive instrument, beside shot, known in the art of war ; each of the line- of- battle ships was fitted with four guns on a side, of about ten inch bore, to fire marble shot, which passed through the sides of our ships, and then broke and flew about in pieces; these shot each weighed I201bs. It will appear, we think, that Sir Edward Codrington's instructions were, to oblige the Turkish and Egyptian ships to return to their respective ports of departure- Constantinople and Alexandria, and to remain there whilst the negotiations were going on at Constantinople for the settlement of the affairs of Greece. He was to understand that this was the unalterable determination of the Allied Powers, and therefore, if after using all means of expostulation and of persuasion with Ibrahim Pacha, he should still persistin offensive operations against the Greeks, he was to warn him of the danger he was incurring by his conduct, and at last resort to shot., to oblige him to comply. Sir Edward undertook to convey Ibrahim Pacha's division of the armament back to Con- stantinople, and Moharem Bey's to Alexandria, free from all danger ot molestation from either Lord Cochrane or any of the Greek forces. In the last interview Sir Edward had with Ibrahim, he forewarned him that any resistance to this intention must be attended with the capture of his ships: Ibrahim replied—" You may de- stroy them, but you will never capture them." This expression he fulfilled nearly to the letter, as not more than three ships of the fleet were seen to strike their colours.— Portsmouth paper.

To the Editor of the Salisbury and Winchester Journal. SIR,— As the circumstance occurs but once in eight years, and somewhat more, it may be interesting to many to know, that the planet Venus, which already begins to adorn our evening sky, will in the middle of next June, and early in September, that is about KB days before and after her retrograde conjunction, he without any arc of emersion ; or become visible to the naked eye in the day- time, even in full sunshine. This phenomenon depends on the following elements:— I. Ve- nus attains her maximum of brightness, or has her angle of greatest illumination at a digression of about 40 degrees from the Sun, when she will project a strong shadow at night.— 2. At the time that Venus is brightest, she rises once in eight years the highest above the horizon, and, therefore, becomes a day star, because there is a less part of the atmosphere to intercept and obscure the brilliancy of her beam. I have the geometrical construction of the problem before me in the quartos of Halley, Boscovich, Vince, and La Lande; but its exhibition in the specious form of Algebra would, I suspect, be little relished ; and it ought always to be the care of the writer not to alienate the attention of his readers. Sed nunc non erat his locus. I am, Sir, & c. JOHN DAVIS. LYNDHURST, Feb. 5, 1828. Mr. Peel, was on Monday unanimously re- elected M. P. for the University of Oxford. A bill has been introduced into the House of Lords to dissolve the Baron dc Robeck's marriage. The amount of property in the Court of Chan- cery in 1756 was under 3 millions; it is now 40 millions. It is rumoured that a misunderstanding exists between the Lord High Admiral and the Duke of Wel- lington respecting the presumed Ministerial censure of Sir Edward Codrington. Crockford's gambling establishment, which has excited fc'° much attention, was on Wednesday even- ing thrown open to a select few, and great astonishment was expressed at its magnificence. A new comedy, entitled The Merchant's Wedding, or London Frolics in 1( 138, was performed at Covent Garden theatre last night. The play was de- cidedly successful, being much applauded throughout. Mr. Jacob Jones, of the Inner Temple, the author of Longinus, a tragedy in five acts, and other works, has just presented to one of the Theatres a five- act tragedy, entitled " Spartacus, or the Roman Gladiator." A marriage in on the tapis between Otway Cave, Esq. M. P. for Leicester, and one of Sir Francis Burdett's daughters. An attention to neatness of dress and per- sonal cleanliness seldom fails to influence the moral con- duct of individuals; and it has, in proof of this, been observed, that those who delight in a good exterior are seldom either sottish or depraved. . " There is no action, thatthe mind can reflect on with such unabated pleasure, as that of giving money to a hospital for the sick."— Dr. Johnson. THE HEDGEHOG.— The Cossacks of the Don have domesticated the hedgehog for his mousing qualities. Cicero recommends a friend to spend some of his time in convivial meetings, giving as a reason, that it is in sucli communications life is most truly enjoyed. FEASTING.— Among the citizens of London, in the olden time, there appears to have been most costly living. A dish fit for an alderman, in those days, while turtle was as yet unknown, was one of eels, so lusciously dressed, as to cost 5/., equal to at least 80/. of our present money. At the annual Spittal feast, the cost to the sheriffs, for wine alone, was, about the middle of the sixteenth century, C00/.; so, that supposing the guests to have drank of Malmsey only, which, though the most choice wine of that period, cost no more than Is. a gallon, there must have been emptied, on this occasion, the in- credible number of 48,000 bottles. GARDEN WALLS.— Painting walls black has been tried in several places and the result has been better leaves, larger and more numerous fruit, and the destruc- tion of the larva; of insects on the wall. A cheap way of blackening a wall is first to paint it with boiling coal tar, and when that is thoroughly dry, to paint over again with* black oil paint; this produces a jet black. On Wednesday evening the 30th ult., Eliz. wife of Scott, of the Black Horse public- house, in Cheltenham, put a period to her existence by taking ar- senic, which she had obtained at a druggist's shop in the town, as she said, for the purpose of destroying rats. A respectable jury of the inhabitants were assembled at the Duke inn, who, after having viewed the body, and exa- mined witnesses, were satisfied in returning a verdict of " Destroyed herself in a moment of temporary derange- ment." CORN- EXCHANGE, Feb. 6.— Our Market was in a very lifeless state this morning, still a few superfine samples of each kind of grain disappeared at last Mon- day's prices. The arrival of Flour was large (( 5,400 sacks), although the millers complain of losing money by it, at the present price of Wheat. BRISTOL TURNPIKES.

TITE learn from / ante that part of the ' T Egyptian vessels wliieli remained at Navarino sailed on the 20th January for Alexandria, with a great number of Greek families. Ibrahim Pacha remains in the Morea with the greater part of his troops, waiting for his father's orders. CORFU, Jan. 8— Ibrahim Pacha has now fully shown the intentions which he has long cherished. It seems that his secret instructions were to send all the inhabi- tants of the Peloponnesus to ligvpt. He has collected the Greeks who were in Castel Tornese, those who have been confined in Coron and Modon, and the others who have fallen into his power, and has embarked the women and children on board two vessels, to convey them to Egypt. Thus they are going to end their days in slavery, far from their native land. We are assured that when this news reached Malta, the Commanders of the allied fleets instantly ordered their forces to steet towards Navarino. TRIESTE, Jan. 22 The last letters from Constanti- nople say, that that city was still tranquil, though great military armaments were making. Immense chains were preparing, to close the entrance of the Dardanelles. Thirteen ships of the line and some frigates were fitting out in the arsenal: two ships of the line and one frigate are already in the port between Tophana and the Serag- lio, and a squadron, of large and small vessels is in the Dardanelles. The cargoes of com of 88 Russian, Eng- lish, and French vessels had been landed for the account of - the Porte, which not only took them at a very low price to the great loss of tlie owners, but has not even appointed a short period for the payment, so that the captains were obliged to content themselves with mere receipts. HOUSE OF LORDS. WEDNESDAY, Feb. 6..— Lord Wharncliffe gave notice that on an early day, he should move the House to appoint a Committee for enquiring into the state of the law as it affected the sale of game.— Adjourned. THURSDAY, Feb. 7.— The Marquis of Salisbury made some observations on the subject of the Sale of Game Bill, which lie had brought into the House, and trusted that the noble Lord ( Wharncliffe) who had given noticeiof a motion for a Committee on the Game Laws, would allow that notice to stand over until after the second reading of his ( Lord Salisbury's) Bill. Lord Wharncliffe. said he could not see what purpose it could answer, to allow his notice to stand over. The Marquis of Salisbury said, his object was to get the principle of the Bill established by a second reading, and accordingly gave notice for the second reading of his Bill on Thursday next.— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. WEDNESDAY, Feb. 6— The England and Wales Tithe Commutation Bill was read a first time. Mr. Agar Ellis presented petitions from the Roman Catholics of the parishes of Naas and of Newbridge, in the county of Kildare, and of Graigue, in die county of Kilkenny. General- King presented a similar petition from the Roman Catholic inhabitants of the parish of Drumcliffe, in the county of Sligo, Ireland. He did not concur in the prayer of the petitioners; still, as the petition was respectfully worded, he felt it his duty to present it. The gallont General said, that as he was one of those who had been lately denounced as enemies of their country, by an illegal Association, now sitting, and which had for the last two years been sitting, in Dublin, he should take that opportunity to say that he should never suffer himself to be intimidated or deterred from the per- formance of his duty by the threats or the menaces of any body of men. Relying on the firmness and talents displayed by the noble Duke now at the head of his Ma- jesty's Government, he was convinced that his conduct would be such as to entitle him to the admiration and gratitude of his country. Sir John Brydges was desirous of taking that opportu- nity of making some observations on the question which had occupied so much of the attention of the House during the few days that had passed since the session had com- menced. He would allude particularly to the declaration of the Catholic Association, that every Member of Par- liament should be considered an enemy to Ireland who Supported the pcesent Administration. ( Hear, hear.) He could not c'oncuv with the Hon. Member for Limerick; tin the contrary, he thought that emancipation, as it was callcd, would not tend to the establishment of peace and tranquillity in Ireland. 1 . et the population have employ- ment, and that would have a tendency to fill their pockets end make them satisfied, fie was at a loss to divine on what ground all these petitions were presented at this time. He could only account for it by supposing, cither that since last session some new circumstances had oc- curred in Ireland, or that those who advocate the cause of the Roman Catholics derived their principles from the position of the seats they possessed. ( Hear, hear.) Now they were beyond measure anxious for its immediate success. ( Cheers.) In conclusion the Hon. Member stated, that he was highly inipressed with the fitness of the Duke of Wellington for the office to which he had been ap- pointed. Mr. Leycester said that the gallant General over the way, by opposing Catholic Emancipation, prevented the fluw of capital into Ireland, denied employment to the willing hands of her people, and food to their mouths, which they would be happy to earn with the sweat of their brow. By the same means he brought down on this country a scourge in the shape of Irish poverty. ( Hear, hear.) Swarms of Irish poor filled our towns and vil- lages, and crowded our streets. Every steam- boat that arrived from Ireland debarked its Jagged regiment, throwing herds of paupers upon our shores. That was the way in which they made reprisals— that was the manner in which they levied contributions upon us— eat- ing up the poor- rates of every parish in the kingdom. Unless Catholic Emancipation should be granted the poor rates must be doubled— the people reduced to irreme- diable distress, and the country could never be relieved from taxation. ( Hear.) Sir J. Newport observed, it had been denied that the grievances of Ireland had grown out of Catholic disabi- lities i but he would assert, that they had their origin in the penal code, and that there could be neither peace nor safety in the country until those disabilities were removed. He did not mean to contend that Catholic emancipation would be a remedy for all the evils under which Ireland laboured; but he would maintain, that until those particular grievances were redressed, a remedy for her general distresses could not take effect. ( Hear.) Sir Thos. Lethbridge said it would be well if every Hon. Member, to whom petitions from the Irish Catho- lics should be intrusted, were to recollect that that body had. in defiance of a law passed three years since, and which was now about to. expire, continued to hold meet' ings and to exercise all the powers of a legislative body. Summonses were issued by them. for returns of the strength of the different parishes, and not only of the men, but of the strength of their pockets, in order that it might be ascertained what sums could be drawn frem them— sums, the object of which we were not told ; but the time was . not far distant, perhaps, when those funds would be applied in a way ot which the House had no notion. IJe thought that until that illegal body were put down, Hon. Members ought to take their stand, and re- fuse even to entertain the applications of the Catholics for redress. So long as intimidation and denunciation were abroad, so long ought Hon. Gentlemen to refraiu from supporting the Catholic Claims; but they ought, at the same time, to represent to the Catholics how completely the steps they were taking were calculated to destroy their own cause. Was it to' be borne, that every Irish Member who should support the Duke of Wellington's Adminis- tration should he stigmatized as an enemy to Ireland ? ( Hear, hear.) That House would not have done its duty to the country, or to the Legislature, until they should have compelled the parties who issued them to withdraw their denunciations. The Hon. Bart, concluded by call- ing upon the House to resist the claims of the Catholics, put forward at such a time, and in such a manner, as the present. Mr. S. Rice was ready . to confess, that the Hon. Bart. who had just sat down, was a candid, fair, and manly- opponent. He might, indeed, be deemed the embodied spirit of opposition to the Catholic claims; but great as was his respect for that Hon. Baronet, and for the gallant General, he could not carrv his respect for them so far as to consider them great judges of the law; and yet the principal parts of the speeches of each were the assertions that a certiain Association, said to exist in Ireland, was illegal, and that so long as that body should continue to exist, the House ought to refuse all relief to the Catholics, H » would ask, wliy, if the acts of that Association were illegal, had not Government interfered ? Why had not the bodv itself been suppressed ? In what had the body acted illegally ? In instructing their constituents, and in expressing their opinions on national questions and naitonal concerns. Not longer than a year or two ago, a great public question— the Corn Laws'— had agitated this kingdom from one end to the other. At another time, agricultural distress had equally interested the country. These called forth petitions— delegates were elected— and at that time might be four. d the Hon. Mem her for Somersetshire ( Sir T. Lethbridge) sitting in Com. mittee— not in his own county, but in New Palace- yard. Now he ( Mr. S. Rice) saw no reason why Mr. Shiel and Mr. O'Connell, any more than the Hon. Member for Somersetshire and Mr. Webb Hall, should not sit in committee, express their opinions, and draw up and sign petitions. ( Hear, hear.) While he thus argued, he begged not to be understood as coming forward as the defender of the Catholic Association, ( Hear.) The existence of that Association was pregnant with danger; that danger was imminent. The existence of the Association tended to eft'ect a separation of the two countries: its exist- ence tended to exasperate, and to prevent a return to tranquillity in the country. ( Hear, hear, hear.) He wished to put down all demagogues— all agitators— all Associations. A coercive law had been tried, and failed. Laws might be enacted against people meeting, talking, reading, writing, thinking; but there was a point which laws could not reach— feeling. ( Cheers.) The Honourable Gentlemen , proceeded to contend that no danger was to be apprehended from the concessions pHtVed tor. Mr. W. Smith, in presenting a petition from the Catholic inhabitants of Kilmaine, county of Mayo, pray- ing Emancipation, took that opportunity of denying that the Protestant dissenters had attempted, or intended, to form a junction with the Roman Catholics, for the pur- pose of obtaining a Repeal of the Corporation and Test Acts. But those who, from that negative circumstance, would conclude that the Protestant Dissenters were op- posed to the Catholic Cause, entertained a most un founded opinion. He, himself, had ever voted fbr the measure, and would continue to support it. So would those Dissenters, who, in other masters, were wont to think with him. The reason why they did notjoin the Catholics was, a wish to form a union in the first place between themselves. Though he, himself, was of opi- nion, that in the main, both causes stood on the same broad and indestructible basis— namely, the justice of the separation of civil rights from religious duties; yet others of his persuasion there were, who thought the two questions stood on different grounds. All agreed, how- ever, ill thinking that both measures were necessary and just; and that the interest and safety of both kingdoms depended on the ultimate success of them. Sir George Cockburn brought up the Navy Estimates for this vear. Mr. Hume presented a petition from Mr. Robert Gourlay, praying leave to be allowed to produce docu- ments before " the Committee on Emigration, in support of a proposed plan of his. Mr. Dennison presented a petition from certain Pro- testants and Protestant Dissenters of Clapham, Surrey, praying a repeal of the Corporation and Test Acts, which had so long disgraced the Statute Book of the House.. The petition was most respectably signed, and contained the names of several Protestant Clergymen. Sir M. W. Ridley presented a petition from certain Protestant Dissenters of the Town of Newcastle- upon- Tyne, praying the repeal of the Corporation and Test Acts. Laid on the table. Mr, Hume stcted that he had on 3 former occasion submitted to the House two bills, whose object was to free the persons of debtors from arrest, and to give to the creditors increased power over the debtors' propeity. He had introduced the measure on the strength of its usage in Scotland, where it had existed for centuries past— The Honourable Gentleman concluded by moving for returns of the total number of the persons committed to the custody of the Keepers of the King's Bench, Fleet, Whitecross- streat, Marshalsea, and Horsemonger- lane Gasls, in the year 1( 127, together with other papers. The motion for these returns was agreed to. ' On the motion of Mr. G. Dawson, there was ordered to be laid on the table an account of the net income of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, for the year ending on the 5th of January 1828. The same Hon. Gentleman moved for an account of the balance of the public money remaining in his Majesty's exchequer on the 5th of Jan. 1820, and also a " imilar account ot the balance of the public money remaining therein on the 5th of January 1828; also of the money applied for the re- duction of the funded debt, and towards paying off the unfunded debt for the year 1827— Ordered. The House having resolved itself into a Committee of Supply, Mr. Dawson moved that the sum of 22,800,000/. be granted to his Majesty, to pay off and discharge out- standing Exchequer bills, which had been voted in aid of the sen ves of the years 1826 and 1827- Mr. Hume said, he thought such large issues of Ex- chequer bills were extremely dangerous. After some discussion, the sum moved for, as well as several others, were agreed to. The House then resumed, and adjourned. THURSDAY, Feb. 7— The Right Hon. Robert Peel took the oaths and his seat, on his re- election for the University of Oxford, which he had vacated on his recent re- appointment to the office of Secretary of State for the Home Department. Eight petitions were presented from various bodies of Roman Catholics in Ireland, praying for relief from the disabilities under which they labour, Mr. Charles Palmer, Mr. Curteis, and Mr. J. Smith, presented petitions praying the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts. Sir Thomas Lethbridge moved for returns of grain imported - from foreign countries now in bond, and nil quantities of wheat and other grain in bond from July last till the present time. He also moved for similar returns relative to the quantities of foreign wool imported.— Re- turns ordered to be granted. Mr. Whitmore gave notice of a motion for Thursday next, jelative to the corn laws. He also moved for re- turns relative to foreign corn imported here, from 6th Jan. 1820 to 5th Jan. 1828, distinguishing each year; and also fur returns of the quantity imparted from Ireland. J— Ordered. Dr. Phillimore gave notice, that he would, on the 18th Of this month, move for leave to bring in a bill to amend the laws relative to the jurisdiction in ecclesiastical courts. Mr. Wodehouse moved for returns of the number of convictions under the malt acts, from July 1827, to Jan. 1828— Ordered. Mr. Brougham rose to bring forward a motion of which he had given notice, " touching the state of the Law and its administration in the Courts of Justice, with a view to such reform as time may have rendered necessary, and experience may have shewn to be expedient." The Hon. and learned Gentleman made a most elaborate speech on the occasion, which occupied six hours in the delivery : and such was the interest with which he contrived to in- vest a repulsive subject— so judiciously did he mingle with the dry and unattractive details the bright and living ornaments of his eloquence, that the House paid a con- tinuous attention to the learned Gentleman from his commencement to his peroration. He detailed the usages and practice of all the Courts of the Land, high and low, forming numerous objection! to each, and suggesting re- medies for the alleged evil9 of the whole— one of which was to increase the number of Judges from twelve to fourteen. Such, however, was the immensity of matter contained in the Hon. Gentleman's expose, that the Solicitor General, in order to be afforded the necessary time to give due consideration to the statement of the learned gentleman, proposed an adjournment of the ques- tion for a fortnight; which proposal after a few general observations from Mr. Secretary Peel, was agreed to by the House; and the farther consideration was postponed to Monday fortnight. Mr. Secretary Feel gave notice that he should move on Tuesday next for a Committee to inquire into the annual expenditure of the country— Adjourned. London, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8. PLYMOUTH, Feb. 5.— Don Miguel's depar- ture is only delayed by the prevalence Of contrary winds. Lord Bentinck and family are still, here, waiting a fair wind. His Lordship is residing at Stonehouse. A Cabinet Gouncil was held on Wednesday afternoon at the Foreign Office, Downing- street, which was attended by the Lord Chancellor, the Duke of Wel- lington, Earls Bathurst, Dudley, and Aberdeen, Lord Ellenborough, Viscounts Melville and Palmerston, Mr. Secretary Peel, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Charles Grant, and Mr. Herries. The list of Sheriffs for the different Counties in Eng- land, as nominated by the Judges, was arranged at the above meeting, previously to its being submitted to the King in Council for his Majesty to prick for the Sheriffs for the present year. The Duke of Clarence held a levee, as Lord High Admiral, yesterday, at the Admiralty. In the evening ms Royal Highness entertained the Members of his Council and a numerous party of naval officers to Oinner. Among the company were— Lord Byron, Sir George Cockburn, Sir Byam Martin, Sir Edward Owen, Sir George Martin; Sir Pulteney Malcolm, Sir Thomas Hardy, Captain Parry, Captain Canning, Commodore White, Sir John Beresford, & c. It was stated by Lord Palmerston, on Mon- day night, in answer to a question put by Lord William Powlett ( during a noise in the House that prevented the question being heard in the Gallery), whether there was any intention on the part of the Government to- make re- paration to the Porte for the destruction of the fleet at Navarin? that no such intention was enteitained by Government. The Session of the French Legislative Cham- bers was opened on Tuesday last; upon which occasion the King of France delivered a speech embracing some highly interesting topics; the following are extracts: My relations with the Powers of Europe continue to be amicable and satisfactory. The affairs of the East alone present some difficulties, but the Treaty which I have signed with the King of England, and the Emperor of Russia, 1ms laid the ground- work for the pacification of Greece, and I have in addition reason to hope, that the combined efforts of myself and my Allies will over, come the resistance of the Ottoman Porte, without having recourse to force The unexpected battle of Navarin has been at once an occasion of glory to our arms, and the most distinguished proof of the union of the three Hags. " The Peninsula has been, for a long space of time, a source of sacrifices: these sacrifices. are approaching to a termination. Spain, secure upon her frontiers, Occupies herself with perseverance in stifling in her bosom the germ of civil discord; and every thing announces that I shall be very shortly able, in conjunction with the King, my nephew, to restore my soldiers to their coun- try, and to relieve my people from a phinful burden. " A rigorous blockade, which will terminate only on that day when I shall have received the satisfaction which is due to me, restains and punishes Algiers, and protects the commerce of France. " I have called my son to take a part in the direction of Military Appointments. The Army will find in this new disposition the most certain testimony of my good will towards them. " Whatever may be the intimate connexions that ought to exist between the religion and the education of mankind, the direction of public instruction, and eccle- siastical affairs, appears to be separated, and I have ordered it to be done accordingly." ST. PETERSBURGH, Jan. 12.— When it was known that M. de Ribeaupierre had sailed for the Archi- pelago, the Emperor, it is said, gave orders to send a courier to Trieste, commanding him immediately to return to Corfu, to join Messrs. Guilleminot and Strat- ford Canning, and in no case to return to St. Petersburgh before the development of the events depending on the Greek question. It is inferred from this that joint decla- rations are going to be made by these Ministers before the executive measures are carried into effect.— Augsburg Gazette. The sole command of the French army has been given to the Dauphin. Mr. Huskisson's re- election to serve as Mem- ber of Parliament for Liverpool took place on Tuesday last, without opposition. The Right Hon. Gentleman delivered a long and able speech upon the occasion. After thanking his friends for his kind reception, be la- mented the cause that brought them so soon together, the death of his dearest— his best friend— Mr. Canning, with whose principles his own had been so inseparably— and so gloriously identified. In adverting to tile reasons which had induced himself and his friends to join the administration of the Duke of Wellington, he said : wt As to their intended measures, I was bound first to ascertain whether the foreign policy of this country wfis to undergo any change, or whether it was meant there should be any departure from, or condemnation of, those measures originated by my much lamented friend; fur if I thought that such was in the contemplation of the Go- vernment, I should have saved all discussion and expla- nation, have made my bow, and retired; for I was bound by those opinions upon which I have acted for years, that no change should take place which could, in the slightest degree, have the effect of making those prin- ciples of our commercial, colonial, and foreign policy acted upon by my late lamented friend, retrograde If any man be so uncharitable as to doubt my sincerity and consistency, and to suppose that I, for the sake of office, would have sacrificed my personal honour and character, I ask that man can he think that a Nobleman of such high honour end character as Lord Dudley, who has accepted office as I have, would, for the sake of emo- lument, have forfeited his character and consistency ; or that he would have remained a moment in office, if he had reason to suppose that the system of Foreign policy acted upon by his and my much lamented friend, or that the treaty which has his signature, would not be carried into effect." The Right Hon. Gentleman, having alluded to the in- stances of Mr. Grant and Mr. Lamb, who also remained in office, said that they did so upon the strongest guarantee that there was not to be the slightest departure from the policy of this country during Mr. Canning's Adminis- tration. He also stated that a Finance Committee, se- lected impartially from the various parties in Parliament, would be appointed, with the view of carrying into effect such; retrenchment as would be practicable with the main- tenance of the real interests of the country, and that a Corn Bill, upon the same principle as that of the last Ses- sion, would be introduced, and, that in preparing such Bill the objects of the Government would be that the consumer should not suffer on the one hand, nor the in- terests of the growers sacrificed on the other. COURT OF KING'S BeNCh.— Obscene Libels.— At the sitting of the Court yesterday Mr. Gurney moved for their Lordships' judgment upon Anthony Dyer, who had pleaded guilty to an indictment in which he was charged wUh the publication of books and prints of an obscen%- and unnatural description. Mr. Gurney said that several of the obscene books and prints, verified by affidavit, were now ill Court, and would be handed up to their Lordships. Mr. Justice. Bailey— It is not necessary that we should see them. The books and prints, bound up in a parcel, were then handed up to the Court, and an affidavit put in and read, which proved the purchase of the prints from the defendant, and supplied all the necessary for- mal proofs in support of the case. The shop of the de- fendant is situated at No. 72, in the Regent's Quadrant. Mr. Gurney then addressed the Court in aggravation, eulogizing the Society for the Suppression of Vice, by whom the prosecution was instituted. The learned gen- tleman gave some descriptions of the books and prints, wliich were of the most shocking a- d indelicate nature. The defendant put in an affidavit in mitigation, and Mr. C. Phillips briefly addressed the Court in his behalf. Their Lordships having consulted together, Mr. Jus- tice Bayley delivered the judgement of the Court upon tlia defendant. After a very emphatic address, his Lordship sentenced the defendant to twelve months' im- prisonment in the house of correction in Coldbath- fields, and to give at the end of that period, security for his good behaviour, himself in 40/., and two other sureties in 20/. each. In the Court of King's Bench yesterday, the Solicitor- General moved the Court to pronounce its judg- ment on the Rev. Robert Taylor.— The defendant was called in, and stood before the Bench attired in his eccle- siastical costume. Lord Tenterden read his notes of the evidence taken on the prisoner's trial at Guildhall. Mr. Taylor then addressed the Court at great length in mitigation of punishment. His main argument in arrest of judgment was, that he had not had a fair trial. After Mr. Taylor had concluded his address, the Solicitor- General, Sir James Scarlett, and the Recorder, were heard in aggravation. Mr. Justice Bailey pronounced the sentence of the Court, which was, that Robert Taylor should be confined in Oakham gaol, in the county of Rutland, for one year, and find securities for his good behaviour for five years, himself in 500/. and two sureties in 250/. each. Mr. Taylor then withdrew in custody. MarylebONE.— SWINDLING.— On Wednes- day, Mrs. Eleanor Sinclair, a lady of elegant appearance, and who has for a length of time borne the highest cha- racter amongst her numerous friends in the parish of Marylebone,. was brought before Mr. Rawlinson, at this office, on a charge of swindling. Mr. Bell, of No. 4, Paddington- street, a bootmaker, and his family, had been acquainted with the prisoner and her connections during the long period of 22 years. She. had formerly lodged, together with her mother, who possesses a small independence, next house but one to them, and they always considered her a person of large fortune. In November she told them that she expected a considerable accession of property, consisting of an an- cient castle, Called Willingbeach, near Andover; also the sum of 3) 50/. in Bank Stock, together with the accumu- lated dividends of 39 years, and a large sum of money in the War Office, which had been in the hands of Govern- ment ever since the first American war. She represented that all this property was to come into her possession, in consequence of a suit in Chancery being decided in her favour by the present Lord Chancellor, who was her in- timate friend ; and she frequently produced letters appa- rently bearing his Lordship's signature, filled with kind ex- pressions. On the faith of these representations, Mr. Bell advanced her several sums of money, amounting in all to 28/. 13 » . In one letter, which she said she received from the Lord Chancellor, it was stated, " I regret I cannot meet you this day, for I must sit with the Big Wigs at Westminster." In another, " Don't, for Heaven's sake, blame the poor Chancellor; the Wellesley case is on this day." In another of his Lordship's nu- merous communications with the defendant, he says," I cannot attend this day; on Monday I will devote two or three hours to you, and put you in possession of your funded property; and I hope in March to see you seated in your ancient Castle of Willingbeach ; if you can get through the week without assistance, so much the better ; if not, you may have a check for 100/. by coming to my office in the morning." On the 14th of January, the prisoner produced a paper bearing the names of Sir Wat- kin Williams Wynn, Bart. M. P., Mr. Langford, of Newbury, and the names of two other gentlemen, and she stated that these gentlemen were her trustees, and they had appointed to meet her at the Bank that day week, in order to put her in possession of her funded property. On the 21st January, she informed Mr. Bell that she had met the Lord Chancellor and her trustees at the Bank, but her business was not brought to a conclusion on that day. Notwithstanding her promises, disappointment fol- lowed disappointment, and Mr. Bell becoming rather pressing in his solicitations to her, that she would repay the money he had advanced to her, she produced another letter from the Lord Chancellor, signed J. S. Lynd- hurst. On Monday other impediments presented them- selves ; on Tuesday, Mr. Bell accompanied the lady herself to the Ban!:, and sat with her upwards of an hour in the Rotunda; but Sir Watkin Williams Wynn, and the other parties she had named, did not make their appearance, and on Thursday he had her apprehended. Wall, the officer, produced a bag filled with papers, which he had found at her lodgings, and Mr. Rawlinson directed the bag to be emptied. The first article pulled out was a folio book, filled with an unpublished Romance in manuscript, entitled " The Monk of Penmarwaur;" the second article was another manuscript, entitled " On the Reduction of Wales by Edward I." Wall said, he had a letter directed to a noble Peer ( Lord Holland), which he found in her pocket that morning. Mr. Rawlinson read the letter aloud which she had written to his Lordship. A duplicate, which was contained in the letter, was handed in'; itVas for an article pawned on the 1st inst. for a shilling. Mr. Rawlinson asked the prisoner ( who seemed slightly agitated) if she could prove that she had such a cause in Chancery? and she made no reply that was audible. She said she had a husband alive, but she did not know where he was; and it was never her intention to defraud Mr. Bell. Mr. Rawlinson expressed his surprise that Mr. and Mrs. Bell should have been duped with so much facility.. Mrs. Bell said, that from the knowledge they possessed of her, they would have advanced her money'to three times the amount, if it had been in their power ; but as it was, the prisoner had nearly effected their ruin. Charles Knight Murray, Esq., private secretary to the Lord Chancellor, said that the letters bearing the Chan- cellor's signature were never written by his Lordship. Mrs. Sinclair was remanded for further examination. Electioneering Wit.— Mr. Sugden was on Friday somewhat disconcerted at the wit of a burgess's wife at Weymouth : " Why do you wear that shabby blue favour in your cap ?" said the candidate in his most winning way. " Because I a'nt " a better," she replied. " Then I w'ill give you a pretty purple one," said he; and he accordingly drew a few yards of riband of that oolour from his pocket. " Thank ye', Sir; I will wear tliis for your sake after the election is over." Stanzas on seeing a Cypress flourish upon a Grave in Neaton Church- yard. Funeral emblem, sole attendant here!

AUGSBURG, Jan. 29.— According to accounts from St. Petersburg in some journals, the field equipage of his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Michael is gone to Keiff. The new English Ambassador, Sir W. A'Court, is expected at St. Petersburg. Great quantities of corn are sent on sledges from the fertile provinces of the kingdom Of Poland to Volhynia, where great maga- zines are forming on account of the increasing number of the troops. PeTERSbuRg, Jan. 18.— The journal of St. Petersburgh contains a long ukase of the Emperor, con- siderably reducing the price of the patents to be paid by the several guilds, " with a view to encotirage the pro- gress r. f commerce and manufactures: the principal sources of public prospvrity and wealth." The nuptials ot' Mademoiselle Lafitte with the young Prince de la Moskowa ( the son of Ney) were celebrated at Paris with princely magnificence. Between 15 and 1800 persons were assembled at the fete given by M. Lafitte the evening of the marriage day. Amongst the company were several Peers, a great number of De- puties, Generals, men of letters, and public functionaries. A squadron of French ships of war, con- sisting of two first- rates, three frigates, one corvette, and two brigs, was at Martinique early in December. The escape of slaves from the French to the British colonies was going on rapidly ; Guadaloupe alone had lost 300. Severe shocks of an earthquake had been felt at several of the islands, about the 1st of December. By accounts just received from Mexico, by the New York packet, it appears that the expulsion of the Old Spaniards is now taken up by the Government and by Congress, and is to be general throughout all the states. All unmarried Spaniards are to be expelled; even the Spanish soldiers who surrendered to the Repub- lic, and who have since joined the army. Spaniards of all descriptions are also to be removed from the coast. This is the basis of the new act brought forward by- Government, and which had been discussed for five days in Congress. The idea of a loan is again revived. The House of Assembly of Jamaica appears to be committed in direct opposition to the British Go- vernment, for it lias now declared that it will not again take any amendment of the Slave Law intp consideration, until the instructions be withdrawn which prevent the Governor of the Island from allowing any bill on the subject of the slave population. The efforts to obtain water by boring in Bos- ton market- place have been discontinued, in consequence of some defect in the instruments used, at a depth of 570 feet. Mr. Wilks, undaunted by the difficulties he lias met with, is treating with contractors for boring in a fresh spot. The public square in Lisbon, at which Don Miguel is to land, was the scene of a dreadful calamity during the great earthquake. The inhabitants rushed thither to avoid destruction from the fall of their houses ; and whilst hundreds of them were on their knees, re- turning thanks for their fancied preservation, the sea rose, and the river overflowing its banks, rushed into the square, and carried their, as it receded, to a grave as sudden as it was unexpected. COLOMBIA— The injury done to the city of Bogota by the late earthquake is estimated at 5,000,000 of dollars. The house in which Bolivar resides suffered no damage whatever, and this circumstance has impressed on the minds of the population, already disposed highly to revere their great Liberator, a still higher degree of veneration, and the persuasion that he is the peculiar care of Divine Providence. The extraordinary effects produced by his return to Colombia will raise the esti- mation of his character over the whole world. From a state of chaos all has suddenly been changed into order and tranquillity. The province of Guayaquil has been re- united to Colombia ; the plots hatching in Quito against the Central Government have been broken up, and the disaffected or rebellious troops have all returned to their duty. His reforms in the internal administra- tion of the country are proceeding with equal benefit to the community over which he is placed He has or- dered that reports of the proceedings in the different departments of state may be sent to him weekly. The most strict regulations have also been adopted for en- forcing regular payments of revenue into the Treasury. In order to encourage the working of the min" s, an ex- emption from military service has been granted to all the natives employed by the English companies. It was fully expected that Santander would retire from the Vice- Presidency, and from public business altogether. The Lord High Admiral, as has been stated, visited the Asia and Albion on Saturday morning, on their arrival at Portsmouth from Navarin. Upon this occasion, a young man, of the name of Langtry, whose friends reside at Havant, was warmly recommended to His Royal Highness's notice, who was pleased to com- pliment him in the most flattering terms on his singularly heroic conduct in the late engagement. It appears that this young man, who at that time was only a midship- man, boarded a Turkish vessel alone, and finding that it was the intention of the Turks to blow up the vessel with him on board, drew his sword, and by the most astonishing acts of valour, cleared the deck of all the Turks, seized the ensign, jumped into tile boat, and carried it off safe on board the Albion, In another instance, a fire ship was moored alongside the Albion, and they were in the greatest consternation as to the fate of their ship. Mr. Langtry jumped into a boat, attended by a single sailor, rowed off to the fire- ship, cut her cables, and let her adrift, and thus saved the Albion and her crew from inevitable destruction. His services have been already rewarded with a Lieutenancy, and the Lord High Admiral promised not to lose sight of him. The expence of living in Portugal is very small as compared with France. In Elvas, which is si- tuated in one of the finest districts, a very good house for a family of six or seven persons may be had for less than 5/. per annum. Spanish bread of . the finest quality, brought from Badajoz, for Id. per lb.; meat, 2d. to 4d. per lb.; wine. Id, per bottle; milk. Id. per quart; oranges, 12 for Id.; pomegranates, 3 for 2d.; and a turkey for Is. fid. Sugar, coffee, and articles of this de- scription, are nearly .10 per cent, dearer than in Lisbon, on account ofuhe expence of carriage; but even in Elvas very good roasted coffee may be had for about Is. 2d. per lb.,, and fine Brazil sugar for 6d. March of Intellect.— At the Bath District Meeting for the Incorporated Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, Sir Abm. Elton, in the course of an able speech, said, " Another jargon he should notice, and that was, the march of intellect." Now he was one of those who thought that intellect might march too far. It might march too far, when it dared to outstep the bounds which God had placed for its enquiries. To promote the inarch of such intellect, a college had been founded in the metropolis of this king- dom, upon the avowed system of discarding all religion ; nay, in open defiance to the established religion of the country. It was a thing so anomalous, that a parallel could not be found to it in the annals of the world. 14 If we," said the hon. Bart. " desert the path marked out by our ancestors, and by all wise and religious men, heathens as well as christians, since the beginning of the world, of making religion the basis and crown of all edu- cation, of all knowledge, we do not, we cannot, deserve the blessing of heaven upon our labours." Right of the Public to be present in Courts of Justice.— The Grand Jury at the Bristol sessions last week, returned, or, the prosecutinn of Mr. J. Acland, late proprietor of the Bristolian, a true bill against Wm. Fripp, jun. Esq. alderman of that city, and Wm. Barrell, a police officer, tor having on the 14th of June last, pend- ing a case of final adjudication, ejected the said Mr. Ac- land from the justice room of the Guildhall. When the bill had been found, Mr. Acland applied for and obtained warrants against the p& rties. The important question in- volved in this case is therefore now in a fair way of being brought to a legal decision.— Berkshire Chronicle. In Madrid the shops of- chemists and drug- gists are kept closed, and the- public are served from an aperture in the window. The origin of this custom is not known. . SINGULAR COINCIDENCE.— On Saturday even- ing three respectable farmers met at the Green Dragon Inn, Gloucester, each of whose wives had presented her spouse, in the course of the week, with twins, which event the happy fathers celebrated with exultation. IRISH WIT,— Surgeon Abernethy, one morn- ing, said to an Irish labourer: Why the d— 1 have you laid your rubbish opposite- my door ?— Pat.

Blandford, Feb. 8. S Dover Election.— The contest for the ; repre- sentation of Dover is going on spiritedly. Great exer- tions are making by the friends of both Candidates. At the close of yesterday's poll, the numbers were : for Mr. Trant 418 ; Mr. Halcomb 309; Majority 49. Mr. Peel will, in a few days, move the ap- pointment of the Finance Committee. Part of the esti- mates for the year have been already laid before the House, and the rest will be submitted during the course of next week. It will be found that every possible reduc- tion has been made, and every possible attention paid to economy, in all the branches of our expenditure Courier. The following is to be the distribution of the Forces returning from Portugal:— The Waggon Train and Staff Corps are to he landed in the river.— The 1st Battalion 00th Foot will land at Cork, and the Depot Companies have been ordered to embark at Devonport, to join the corps at Cork.— The 4th Foot is to proceed to Leith, and the fi3d to Chatham.— The 28th Regiment at Corfu is expected to be ordered home on the arrival there of the 11th Regiment from Portugal.— The 85th Regiment, which was removed from Malta to Gibraltar when the forces went to Portugal, is to return to its for- mer station, being relieved by the 23d & 43d Regiments. The Lords of the Treasury have determined to extend the privilege Of placing in bond every descrip- tion of foreign produce ( except that of the East Indies) in the port of Barnstaple. Several informations have during the past week been made, and Exchequer processes issued, against .. yarjais druggists and stationers in Exeter, for selling patent medicines and toy cards, wiLhout licence, or stamps being affixed to the articles. The body of one of the men who were tin fortunately drowned in the Thames Tunnel, was on Wednesday discovered floating on the summit of the water in the shaft. It was raised, and with great diffi- culty placed in a shell. It proved to be the body of a miner, named Wm. Seaton, a single man, who had been only three weeks on the works previous to the irruption. On Tuesday night the warehouse of Messrs. Pountney and Co. stationers, Broad- quay, Bristol, was broken into between the hours of nine and ten, by forcing open a door. After the thieves gained an entrance, they forced open every desk and lock on the premises, but were greatly disappointed in not finding the cash, which is usually kept in the counting- house, so that their plun- der consisted only of a few shillings. A distressing circumstance occured last week at. Bignor, in the neighbourhood, of Arundel, Sussex. Mr. Tupper, jun. feeling indisposed, requested his mo- ther to prepare a dose of cream of tartar, to be taken the first thing the following morning— by sad mistake, arsenic was mixed up with honey, and the whole of it unsuspect- ingly swallowed. But a short period elapsed ere the fatal appearances manifested themselves, and, in spite of surgical aid, the poor fellow's existence was speedily terminated in the greatest agonies. The Colonel of one of the battalions of in- fantry stationed at Windsor was paying his addresses somewhat too warmly to the wife of a respectable inha- bitant, on Sunday, on the Castle Terrace. The husband coming up somewhat vial a propos for the gallant officer, with little ceremony saluted him with a stout oaken cudgel, accompanied with a threat, that if caught offend- ing in a similar way again, his reception would be still warmer.— Morning Paper.

HAPPINESS " the gay to- morrow of. the mind" is ensured by marriage j " the strictest tie of perpetual Friendship, is a gift from Heaven, cementing pleasures with reason, by which, says Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association with celestial intelligence." ... Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed ob « ligation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to re* gulate tlie passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature from: those impurities which the freedom of unrestricted plea- sure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention, are attributable many of those hapless instances, which, while they excite the commiseration of the be-, holder, should also impress him with the fear of self- reproach. Luxurious habitswill effeminize the body— a residence in the tropics will. relax the elastic fibre— but more es- pecially does the premature infatuation of youth, too frequently compromise the natural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized sufferer more t'naa doubts the chance of relief. To all such then, we at'- dress ourselves, offering hope— energy— muscular strength-* » - felicity ; nor will oui advances appear questionable, sanc- tioned as they are by the multiplied proof's of twenty- years' successful exper ience.

FRIDAY, Feb. a— Mr. Best, from the Bank of England, presented Returns of the amount of Exchequer Bills purchased in the year 1627. The Duke of Richmond presented a petition from Mr. W. H. Palmer, Under Sheriff of Sussex, then in custody for the arrest of Lord Hawarden, preying the House to nleaie him from the custody of the Sergeant at Arms, and disclaiming the remotest intention to commit a breach on their Lordships' privileges— The petitioner, and Mr. Tanner, the attorney, also in custody, were ordered to be liberated on paying the usual fees.— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. FRIDAY, Feb. 6.— Mr. Clinton presented a Petition from the Aldermen, Burgesses, and other inhabitants of East Retford, against disfranchising that Borough, and praying to be heard at the Bar of the House against any Bill brought in for that purpose. Two petitions from bodies of maltsters were presented, complaining of the Malt Act. Mr. Hume wished to obtain certain returns respecting Savings Banks. These establishments now cost the country half a million. Though friendly to the principle of Savings Banks, he'at first thought that each Bank could beso managed as to pay its own expences; but it turned out otherwise; persons who deposited money in those establishments received a higher rate of interest than was received by those who invested mouey in Government Securities. * This circumstance, added to the expences of the business, made them burdensome to the country. His wish was to know the extent to which Parliament intended ta support these Institutions. The Hon. Mem- bar then moved for a return of the gross receipts and ex- penditure on account of the Savings Banks, under 54 George III. bv the Commissioners for the management of the National Debt— Ordered. The Hon. Gentleman moved also for an account of all monies paid during the year 1 827, on account of half- pav annuities to the Navy and Army ; alio an account of the annual expends of collecting the Revenue of Great Britain and Ireland, distinguishing the amount of the Irish col- lection— also the total amount of receipts and expenditure of ( lie Commissioners for liquidating the National Debt, for the year ending January 1828— also an account of the total amount of the Funded and Unfunded Debt— Ordered. Mr. Grattan moved for returns of all Irish Country Bank Notes which hail been stamped during the years 1824, 24, 2ft, and 27— Ordered. The House having resolved into a Commute of Ways and Means, it was resolved that a sum of 20 millions in Exchequer Bills should be raised for the service of the pnrtent year— also that the sum of five millions, voted for the service of the year 1827, should be applied to the • ervice of the present year. The House then resumed, and the Report was ordered to be received on Monday— Adjourned. London, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9. The Paris papers state that the French troops will evacuate Cadiz, and, probably, the other Spanish Garrisons, in the month of March. They are expected, wever, to garrison a line on the frontiers— St. Sebastian, Pampeluna, Jaca, Seu d'Urgel, Figueras, and Uo^ iS. It appears, from the French papers, that Spain is far fiom being in a settled state; bands of predatory robbers commit excesses, though it can scarcely be said that these disturbers are worthy the name of rebels. Lisbon Gazettes, to the 2SJth tilt, inclusive, have arrived. It appears by them that the Chamber of Peers is engaged In considering a Project of Law for throwing open the ports of Lisbon and Oporto to the merchandize of all countries, without the distinctions which are now made. The Report » f the Committee on this project being unfavourable to its adoption by the Chamber, there appears little prospect of its being passed into a law during the present session. • His Majesty's ship Jasseur has arrived at Portsmouth, from South America; she left Rio Janeiro • lie 5th December. Among the rumours of the < lay, is one that tl) c Duke of Wellington, in pursuit of that retrenchment he considers necessary for the welfare of the country, hns manifested his intention not to exempt from its operation the highest personages in it. Such impartiality, it need iiOl be remarked, will gain him many friends. A deputation ol'cijrht of the Country Bankers waited on the Duke of Wellington yesterday, at the Treasury, and hail an interview with his Grace, at which the Chancellor of the Exchequer assisted— The confer- ence with the Noble Duke lasted about two hours. The ease of the British claimants on Spain is again beginning to attract public attention, on account of its being their understood design to make an appeal shortly to Parliament on the subject. The Mexican Republic continues in a state of great disorder, with no power of making remittances on ilie part of the Government. A line of telegraphs, organised by European • gents, has been established on the Adriatic coast of the Hellespont, as far as Smyrna. A Bill has just f> eun introduced into the House of Lords, by the Marquis of Salisbury, intituled an Act " to legalise the Sale of Game." It provides that qualified persons juay sell game to licensed dealers, first taking out a pertjticate. If the dealer be convicted of spy offence against the Game Laws, his license to be void. The Act not to repeal any former Act relating to gjitrie, sxpepf as therein altered. A great degree of interest has been excited hy Mr. Brougham's speech in the House of Commons on Thursday night. His very deep research, and elo- quent display of it, were highly admired by all parties. He spoke for six hours, and concluded with moving for the appointment of a Committee " to enquire intu the abuses which have been introduced in the course of time into th « Administration of the Laws of the Realm, ar. il the Courts of Common Law, and to report what remedies it mar be deemed expedient to adopt. The object of Mr. Brougham, in bringing forward his motion on Thursday evening, is one whieb must ensure the approbation of every true friend to his country. " The glorious uncertainty of die law" is so well known, that any attempt to remove that uncertainty, though it fail in effect, nrnst confirm to the person mak- ing it the reward of gratitude. So confident are the English merchants that so further hostilities will take place between this country and Turkey, that ouc eminent house in the city has for- warded a large quantity of manufactured goods to the latter. EXCISE PROSECUTIONS.— Mr. Huskisson, it ij said, is aliout to submit to Government the propriety of appointing sonic barrister of eminence, with a compe- tent annual salary, and without any other flu*, to whom all informations on the Crown Laws ara to be referred that he should act as Grand Juror; and he oil!)/ is to deter, mine whether the parties should be pro » ecuttU or not. Carl Brecknock, ouc ol the representatives for Bath, has accepted the office uf one of the Council to the Lord High Admiral: hence a vacancy occurs in tli* representation of the city. General Palmer does not otter himself j it is expected, therxtcre, that the noble Karl wijl be again returned, without opposition. The election is fiseU for Manday next. It j<> not a little remarkable that the towns of Bradford and Trowbridge, containing together about ^ S. WW inhabitants, and The two Urgent ill the county ot Wilts, have no coach direct to London. For some days past jt had been ascertiincd • hat severtl prisoners under sentence of de » jh in New- gate, of whom there are now about jtl, were talnruitiwu a design of effecting their escape.

These men were not aware, that in order to gain their object, they must pais five massive gatee, with locks ojiencd by diffetent keys. Some disooveritl'of their in- tentians being made, the Sheriffs, accompanied bv the governor of the prison, went on Thursday ihfo further investigation of the affair, when it wat determined that tight of tlit men should be immediately put in trun*.

Thrhu Murder at Bath.— Gillam's wife, who is now pregnant, and who was detained in custody on suspicion cf being concerned in the robbery of her mis- tress, was discharged on Thursday morning, her mistress, it is understood, beinn unwilling to prosecute. She re turned to Marlborough- buildings, and alter packing up her boxes & c., left Bath to reside with her relations in Hertfordshire.— It ought to be noticed, that Mrs. Coxs had deputed her legal adviser to give WO', over and above the sums offered bv itu> Corporation and the Parish of Wal- cot, for the discovery of the murderer. She also liberally defrayed the expenses of the funeral, & c. CORN- EXCHANGE, FRIDAY, Feb. 8.

WEYMOUTH, Feb. 8— The writ for electing a Re- presentative of this borough in Parliament arrived here on Saturday last, and tho usual proclamation was made on Monday announcing that the election is to lonimence to- morrow ( Saturday )— The friends of Major Weyland and Mr. Sugden have been during the week most active in promoting the interest of each candidate, and the con- test is likely to be a warm one. Each party appears fully confident of success. The Mayor has caused such ar- rangements to be made at the town hall as will ensure to each freeholder a more free and easy access to the place of polling than at the last election, and will prevent any recurrence of serious disturbance from the conflict of parties. A slight disturbance took place on Monday evening, in conseijurnre of the differgnt parties meeting in the streets ; the results, however, were not very serious, b-' ing confined to a few discolourations of the eyes, & c. Fifty special constables were swum in on Tuesday before Wm. Oakley, Esq. Mayor, and the oath was most solemnly and im- prcsiively administered to each, to act with the utmost impartiality in the preservation of the peace, without favour or affection to either party. Imperious business having called Mr. Sugden to Lon- don on Friday last, that gentleman returned to Wey- mouth about six o'clock last evening: lie was met at the turnpike gate by his committee and an immense con- course of people; the horses were taken from the car- riage, and he was drawn through different streets of the town, preceded by a band of music and colours flying, to Luce's Hotel, amidst the shouts of the multitude. From the top ot his carnage, at the Hotel, he nddrta- ed the crowd, declaring that he would maintain the contest to the last. At eight o'clock Mr. S. met a large party of freeholders at the Crown Hotel, where, in a long and animated speech, he renewed his declaration, which was received with loud cheers. On Monday morning the Duke of Gloucester took his departure from Lulworth Castle, accompanied by his suite. Ilis Royal Highness, in addition to the esta- blishment of a National School in the neighbourhood, and an institution for aged and infirm widows, is said to have expended upwards of 400/. in donations to the dis- tressed poor of the surrounding villages. Lady Johnstone and G. T. Steward, Esq. are among the late arrivals. On Wednesday evening the Misses Willis gave a most elegant ball and supper to a very numerous and fashion- able party at their residence in the Royal Terrace. SWANWICH, Feb. 7— On Sunday last the Duke of Gloucester honoured thii place with a visit. His Royal Highness was accompanicd by Capt. Stevenson, Major Foster, and the Hon. Mr. Curry. At two o'clock, the party arrived at the Manor House Hotel. H. R. H. was conducted to the ball- room, which commands a most delightful view of the Bay, itc.; it particularly excitcd the admiration of the Royal visitor. The party pro- ceeded to view every rosm in this extensive fabric, and were pleased to express themselves highly gratified w ith the views from almost every room, and the comforts which the house is so eminently calculated to afford. His Royal Highness then took a walk in the Grove, from thence to the Royal Fort, and by tile way of Durleston Bay, a circuitous tour to the Hotel. When walking on the Cliff, the Royal Duke was charmed with the prospect of such an extensive sweep of bold shores, as stretch on either hand. This eminence affords a view of the beau- tiful and luxuriant vale, richly ornamented with trees and woods, which lies parallel with, and terminates at Corfe Castle: from this spot, Leeson House, the seat of B. L. Lester, Esq. M. P. has a prominent effect. On going from this eminence to the Library, H. R. H. had to pass by two new aud exceeding good Lodging- houses; the Library was then honoured with a Royal visit; after spending some time there, H. R. H. returned to the Manor House Hotel, where every attention due to the illustrious Duke was paid. The party then sat down to a cold collation, after which His Royal Highness, with his characteristic affability, expressed himself much pleased with the place, and the great attention which had been paid him. The party then took their departure for Lulworth Castle. William Bulxley Astley, Esq. and lady ; T. Asshetan Smith, Esq. and Miss Assheton Smith, are arrived i- t the Manor House Hotel; Major- General Cole, at his residence here, from London. Winchester. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9. The wrll- known generosity of J. S. Penleaze, F, sq. was last week fully proved by his distributing a liberal supply of blankets and stockings to the whole of the poor of the parish of Bossington, as also by a dinner of old English fare and strong beer to the workmen em. ployed by him on his estate, provided mid served up in the new building called Houghton Mill. MAD DOGS— Important Caution,— An order has been issued by four County Magistrates, assembled at Andover, to the inhabitants of Amport, Thruxton, Kimpton, & c. to keep their dogs confined, |, s it has been reported to th « m that a spaniel, supposed to ijc mad, had bitten two men at Amport, and sci eral dugMn diat and the adjoining villages of Thruxton and Kimpton, 4tc. The supposed rabid animal, we are infoni'ied. was shot at Everley on the same day that lie did the above mis- chief.— Wo truit that the following remarks of Doctor Thomas, in his " Practice of Physic," wjl) prove a salu-. tary caution to persons not to pronounce a flog free from hydrophobia mettly because he evinces pa dread at the sight of fluids:— " The term hydrophobia, as applied to slogs, js highly exceptionable, as the animal, instead of' showing any dread of water, which has geuetaily aud popularly been considered as mafking the disease, seeks >< in tyosl in- stances with aviilty, and laps if intefxitiSlj/— A late wriwr on the diwases of dogs ( Dr. Blaine) very justly notice* the evil Hint this opinion has led to, lulling into ian£ crau4 security ( Persons bitten by dogs actually rabid, aud in particular, fefeis to an instance in which an emi- neat physician, M being coorjlted by apsison who had Sees fitter., re.-/. 9tlfcesdei that no • precautionj wight in taken, Itttunht tit tfifltWKi tht ergcouU drink" BIRTHS.— On Wednesday last, at the bar- racks, Christchurch, the lady of H.

Death of the Dean of Worcester.— We have the painful task ot recording the death of our worthy Dean, the Rev. Dr. Hook ; he expired yesterday, be- tween twelve and one o'clock, in the 66th year of his age. The Dean was a most distinguished scholar and divine; he was honoured by the personal regard of his Sovereign. He held the Archdeaconry of Huntingdon, together with the livings of Bromsgrove and Stone, in this county, and the Mastership of St. Oswald's Hospital.— Worcester Journal. On Saturday last died Mrs. Smith, wife of John Smith, Esq. surgeon, of Weyhill; and on the same day died also her brother, William Pitman, jun. Esq. surgeon, of Andover. As they were both interred at Andover on Thursday last, at the same time, and in the same grave, and under many demonstrations of popular esteem, the spectacle was unusually impressive and affecting. On the 5th inst. died at Froyle, in this county, Elizabeth, the wife of the Rev. Sainsbury Lang- ford Sainsbury. Committed to the Covnty Gaol:— Win. Asletts for poaching at Wymering; John Saunders, for assault- ing John Blake, of Christchurch | Jos. Broomfield, for an unnatural offence; Geo. Cousens and Edw.

On Wednesday last the Earl of Radnor w as unanimously elected Recorder of this city, in the place of his father, the late much lamented Earl. The late Earl of Radnor has bequeathed two hundred pounds to the Salisbury Infirmary, free of legacy duty. The funeral of the late lamented Earl of Radnor took place on Monday last, when his Lordship's remains, according to his expressed desire in his will, were interred in the most private manner in the family vault at Britford, the ceremony being attended only by the noble Earl's four sons, and the upper domestics. The high respect ill which his Lordship was held by his tenantry was shewn by the circumstance that an offer was made by them generally to attend the funeral; but this testimony of respect, being contrary to the usual custom of the family, could not be complied with. We under- stand, however, that many of the tenants have gone into mourning on the occasion. The late Mrs. Rolleston has bequeathed ten pounds to the Salisbury Infirmary. Petitions to the Commons House of Parlia- ment are now circulating in this county, at the different market towns, praying that a duty of fid. per lb. may be laid on Foreign Wool. The wool of our owp growth having become, as it were, a drug in the market, it is presumed that the names of all landholders and occupiers of land, as well as of those who are in some measure de- pendent on their prosperity, will be subscribed to these petitions. The Lord Chancellor has appointed Samuel Bush, of Frome, in the county of Somerset, Gent., to be Master Extraordinary in the ljigh Court of Chancery. The Trustees of the turnpike roads lending from Frome and Warminster to Bath have resolved upon petitioning Parliament to carry into effect the recommen- dation of a Select Committee of the House of Commons, ( printed May 23th, 1827,) for the abolition of all fees and Parliamentary charges upon the renewal of local Turnpike Acts. It is hoped that their example will be generally foljowed by the trustees of roads throughout the kingdom, A meeting was on Monday last held at Melksham, to promote the establishment of public Day and Infant Schools; when resolutions were passed, and a committee appointed to solicit subscriptions in further- ance of the object. The schools arc proposed to be con- ducted on the principles of the British and Foreign School Society, and, from the liberal temper displayed on the occasion, it is to be hoped that the measure will meet with general encouragement and ruppott. The new and beautiful little theatre at Dor- chester is to be opened on Friday, the 15th instant, under the management of Mr. Lee, w ho has engaged Miss Foote to perform for a few nights shortly after the opening of the theatre.

The parties arrived at Shaftes- bury oil a visit to their friends there, on the 2d i^ stanf, after a quick passage of 14 days from St. John's to Ply- mouth, where they had landed on the 28th ult. On Sunday the 3d inst. died at the house of her son- in- law, the Rev. Robert Wetherell, at Newton Longville, Bucks, Mrs. Merewether, relict of the late , Henry Merewether. Esq. of Calne, Wilts.

On Friday last died, sincerely lamented by a numerous family, Mr. Simon Hiscocks, aged 96, the oldest inhabitant of the parish of Westbury, Wilts, in which he had been long a respectable farmer. By his death, society has lost a valuable member, and the poor a liberal benefactor and friAd. Lately died at Cliilton Cantelo, where he was residing for the benefit of his health, Mr. William Ham, aged U2. Died on the 3d inst. at the bouse of E. Mait- land, Esq.

On Thursday last died, aged 7( i, Mr. George Crouch, carver and gilder, of New- street, in this city. An eel, measuring 4J feet in length, and 9 inches round, and weighing the unparalleled weight of 7ilbs. was lately caught in a meadow belonging to Mr. Barns, of Fovant, who has it now in his possession. Malicious Act.— On Wednesday night the 6th inst. some person or persons entered flie shcepfold of Mr. Sutton, at East Grimstead, and killed a ewe sheep, which was left in the fold. Mr. S. has offered a reward of 10 guineas for a discovery of the offenders. On Saturday night the 2d instant, as Mr. John Hoffe, of Twyford, near Shaston, was riding a spirited horse in Binsport- street, near the Ox Inn, Shaf- tesbury, he unfortunately fell from bis horse, and was so much injured, that he soon after expired. A Coroners inquest was held on the body; and a verdict of " Acci- dental Death" was returned. He has left a wife and six children to deplore his loss. Mr. Hannen held an inquest on the Gtli inst. at Kington Magna, on the body of Mr. Jos. Cox. It appeared that the deceased, whilst on his return from West Stower to Kington, on the preceding night, was seized with a fit, and fell from his horse; some persons coming up at the time, they assisted him in remounting his horse, and went home with him ; but on their arrival there it was discovered that he was quite dead.

SALISBURY INFIRMARY, Saturday, Feb. 9— In- patients: admitted 13, discharged 14—. Out- patients: ad. milted 18, discharged G— Patients in the House 8' J. To the Editor of the Salisbury Winchester Journal. THE intention and tendency of an advertise- ment which has been frequently inserted in your Journal liave probably escaped your notice, since it leads to injure an individual, and mislead the public. It is signed by one R. C. Corfe ( see 1st page of this Journal), who repre- sents that he has found it hopeless to continue at the King's Arms Inn, near Stockbridge, and takes on him to solicit favor for the Grosvenor Arms Inn. Now, from this any one would suppose that he had voluntarily quitted the former for want of business, which would not only prejudice ' hat Inn, which I now hold, but deter the public from resorting to a house where they would find all the accommodation they could desire. It may be proper therefore to say, that R. C. Corfe never had any interest in the King's Arms Inn, at which he was merely a servant, and that, so far from quitting it voluntarily, it was found necessary to employ a constable to turn him out. It mat' be proper also to state, that he neither does nor ever did keep the Grosvenor Arms Inn, as might be supposed from his advertisement. Indeed I, as a rival oi that house, wish he did keep it.
