A telegraphic despatch of the 20th announces the arri- val of the Bellonne frigate, and three brigs, from Cadiz. This morning, Viscount de Chateaubriand was re- ceived bv the King, , as well as M. de Barante. The Constitutionnel states that it is almost decided that M. de Chateaubriand is to comeirfto the Ministry. The sJme paper notices a rumour current in Paris, that the Duke of Wellington is endeavouring to get Talleyrand rastored to office. The Courrier Francais states that the evacuation Of Spain by the French troops lias been again postponed. ' The Ami de la Charte says. " A considerable levy of sailors is going on in France for the Royal Navy. It is said that Nantes is to furnish 600 men." A11 the accounts from Prussia speak of the active mi- liary exercises and equipment of troops in Prussia, and ir the Provinces of the Rhine. BUCHAREST, March 1.— We have letters from Con- stantinople of the 15 th Feb. which state, that a new at- ttoiot of the Ministers of Austria and Prussia to induce the Porte to accept the intervention of the two Powers his been rejected by the Reis Effendi, v.- ho expressed iimself on this occasion in very strong terms with respect to the Dragomans. ; Nothing had been changed in the. otpital. . . • BERLIN, March 10.— A reply is said to have been re- lumed to the invitation of a- neighbouring Court, who vished to engage Prussia to place an Army of Observa- ion in the Frontiers of Poland, that our Cabinet had; no Hed of such a precnution, for Prussia could in a fortnight lave 300,090 men utider arms— Gazette d' Augsburgh. London. MONDAY, MARCH 24, His Majesty had select dinnpr parties Thurs- day and Friday at St. James's Palace. The King will vend the Easter holidays at Windsor Lodge, ar. d return p town the end of April. Yesterday the Lord Chancellor had an audi- « ice of his Majesty. Tlrt: Spanish Ambassador had an interview ' ilth Earl Dudley at the Foreign Office this morning. It lstcd for nearly two hours. Dispatches have been received by Govern- » ent from Sir F. Lamb and General Clinton, dated lisbon the 16th instant. Don Miguel, it appears, had istolved both the Chambers, for the purpose, it is be- leTed, of facilitating the commission of * n act hostile to Ue constitution. Lisbon; was ill a great ferment, and miversal confusion and'distrust prevailed. The Count & Villa Real had an. interview with Don Miguel, to im- ] iore him to desist from liis Anti- constitutional measures ,- or to accept of his ( the Count's) resignation, which Bon Miguel, at his earnest request, received. There is a report of Sir F. Lamb having, in a conference with Don Miguel, told Mm" that he had possession of his cor- rt! pondcnce with King Ferdinand, and of his proclama- tions for proclaiming him absolute King. AU the Con- stitutional Chiefs have been dismissed, and replaced by Apostolicals. The Queen, it is said, had even gone so fir as to send to Spain for twenty- live thousand men. Letters from Lisbon state that the presence of our troops in that city, and the fleet in the Tagus, are the only obstacles to Miguel's being proclaimed King. When Sir F. Lamb remonstraied with Miguel on the extravagance of his conduct anil its pernicious tendency, heaffecte. 1 total ignorance of what was going on. His mother has a printing- press, from which she printed oft' a vast number of Proclamations of an inflammatory nature, which were ready for distribution the moment an opportunity offered. Miguel denied any knowledge of these proceedings, but when our Ambassador pulled one oat of his pocket, and asked Miguel if he timid read that $ h » confusion was unspeakable. Sir F. Lamb then in- formed Miguel that he could no longer believe any thing he said, and took his departure. He then invited all the Ambassadors to a conference, and explained his pro- ceedings, of which they all approved, with the exception of the French and Spanish Ambassadors, wlio left the conference. The passengers by the packet are— the Count and Countess Frontiera, Count de Villa Flor, Count Hol- stein, M. Fernandez Thomas, M. Sampayo, and Mr. W. Cummins. • • Many more persons were leaving Porugal. All who are not of the absolute party were preparing to secure their property and depart. The most scurrilous abuse of the English is circulated at Lisbon, by means of printed or written papers dropped in the streets. The following translation ( a true copv) of one of them, is a specimen :— LISBON, March 15, 1833.—. Dentil of ALL English Bloodhounds that have robbed Portugal! Let the in- comparable Silviera come to chastise the vile English Protestants, protectors of Fre? masnns I Come Silviera and put to the sword the Villains that would not follow the Infantine Army, Reigning King Don Miguel the First. Death to all Englishmen, who rob Portugal, and protect Freemasons ! Death to the English Ambassador, the protector of Freemasons in Portugal 1 Death to all Englishmen ! Long live Don Miguel the First, King of Portugal! Long live Silviera, who will come and Cut off the ears of al) Freemasons in Portugal, and the English army, if thev do not flee before he comes! and death to George the King of England, King of the Pro- testants and Freemasons ! and long live the Empress of Portugal, Donna Carlotta Joaquina." It is said that Don Miguel has behaved in a most insulting manner towards General Clinton. The private letters from Oporto are to the 10th instant. The public mind was greatly excited, but there had been no further excesses. Many vessels were in the river ; the English residents, in consequence, were perfectly si: is( ied. of their personal safety. Lord Heytesbury ( Sir W. A'Court), late Ambassador to Portugal, arrived in town last week from Lisbon: his Excellence proceeds forthwitH to Petersburg. Lord Cochrane is said to have purchased a splendid hotel in Paris for his future residen. e. The Tenth Hussars, part of the British force sent to Lisbon, arrived on Saturday at Portsmouth; having left the Tagus before the late change in Don Miguel's councils. PLYMOUTH, March 22— His Majesty's steam vessel Meteor, Lieut. Hay, sailed yesterday with dis- patches for our Minister at Lisbon, and for Lieut.- Gen. Sir W. Clinton, the Commander- in- Chief of our troops in Portugal. The dispatches are imagined to be of the greatest importance. The Briton frigate, which arrived at Ports- mouth from Lisbon, and was to be paid oil", is under orders to sail immediately for Lisbon. Orders have been sent to Plymouth to complete his Majesty's sloop Brito- mart for foreign service, with all possible despatch. His Majesty's ship Asia, 84 guns, was taken out of dock at Portsmouth last week, and will be ready for sea in a few days. Rear- Admiral the Hon, Sir Charles Paget is appointed to succeed Rear- Admiral Plampin, in the command of the ships on the coast of Ireland. The weekly discharges of mechanics from Plymouth Dock- yard are kept up,— a fact which does nbt indicate any urgent demand— for all additional naval force in the event of a Turkish war. The Lord High Admiral has determined that tile Revenue cruisers shall, with all the other proportions of the naval force of the realm, be placed under his more immediate control for the future. Yesterday the Right Rev. Charles Richard, lord Bishop of Winchester, preached a sermon at the Percy Chapel, Charlotte street, Fitzroy- square, in behalf of the St. Pancras Female Charity, an excellent institu- tion, in which ( 15 children arc wholly supported, clothed, and educated. The children are admitted into the Charity between the ages of 9 and 11, and maintained there until 11 years of age, and then apprenticed for the the term of feu* years as household servants, in families of respect, ability. The subscription for the survivors of the late " Calamity at the Brunswick Theatre is under 3000/. On Friday, during a tremendous storm of thunder and lightning, smoke was seen to issue from the spire of Edlesborough Church, in Buckinghamshire, about four miles from Dunstable, and in a few minutes it was ascertained that the electric fluid had set tire to • the steeple ( which waa- of wood covered with lead), and thence descended to the interior of the tower and belfry. The molten lead poured down iri torrents, and ail the " bells, except one, fell, red hot, with a tremendous crash. The body of the church was saved, and the flames were extinguished without doing farther damage. In Herefordshire and the surrounding country, above one thousand of the poor receive constant employ- ment in the plaiting of British straw. The lambing season throughout the different flock districts has been marked by more varied success than usual: in many parts of Sussex the failure has been very serious and extensive. During the htst week there were exported for Honfleur, in France, from the port of Shoreham alone, 6,000/. worth of British wool. At Maidstone assizes, on Friday, Elizabeth Dale, charged with having drown d h.- r child . in a pond at Blackheath, was fpund guilty oi manslaughter. She i to be transported for life.

TUESDAY, March 25.— The Manchester and Liver- pool Rail- way Bill, and the Annual Duty and Indemnity Bill, Here read a third time and passed. Lord Holland presented several petitions, praying for a repeal of the Sacramental Test, as a necessary quali- fication for office. The Marquis of Lansdowne presented a petition to their Lordships from the British and Native Inhabitants of Calcutta, praying that the laws of property, real and personal, thete, might not he placed on the same footing will) the laws of England, but that they might be placed upon the footing in which they were originally, accord- ing to the letters patent Laid on the table.

Laid on the table. Earl Grey called their Lordships' attention to abate- ment nude in the House of Commons the night before ( by Mr. Peel)— That his Majesty's Ministers had re- ceived no intimation that any changes had taken place in the relations between Russia and the Ottoman Porte, or that any declaration of war had been issued by either of those Powers. He would ask, whether lie was to ' under- stand from those words, that there had been no change in the relations subsisting between Russia and the Porte, lit' a nature to diminish that hope of the continuance of peace announced by his Majesty in the beginning of the Session. In the plain acceptation of the words to which he had alluded, it would appear that there had been no accounts since the delivery of that speech, which could tend to lessen the hope of a general and permanent peace, in which his Majesty then invited his people to indulge. Earl Dudley— I hope the noble Earl will for the present remain satisfied with my stating, that although certain intentions have been . announced on the part of Russia, which may justify the apprehension that there is no great chance of peace being maintained between that empire and the Ottoman Porte, his Majesty's Govern- ment have yet received no information that those inten- tions have been carried into effect. Certainly, by the transactions which have taken place between Russia and the Porte, since the period of the opening of the present Session of Parliament, the hope of a permanent peace has been diminished. Of this there can be no doubt; but no accounts hive yet reached us that that peace has been actually btokch Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY, March 21— Mr. Bastard presented a pe- tition from the Archdeacon and Archdeaconry of Exeter agiinst the repeal of the Te9t and Corporation Acts.

Several other petitions were presented. In a Committee of Supply, Sir R. Wilson asked, whether it was the intention of his. Majesty's Government to adhere to the Speech from the Throne, in which a promise of interference on behalf of Greece had been given ; to maintain the Treaty of the 6th of July, and to adhere to it, without allowing any circumstances which might have subsequently occurred to lead to the surrender of the principle so recognized. ( Hear, hear.) Mr. Peel— My answer is shortly this, that there has been no change whatever in the determination of his Majesty to do ever. v thing in his power to carry into effect the Treaty of the fith of July. No information has reached this country as to any actual declaration of war having been put forth by Russia against Turkey, or as to any act of hostility that has altered the relations in which she stood towards that Power by the Treaty of the 6th of July, subsequent to the Battle of Navarin. Lord Morpeth expressed his great satisfaction at the statement of the Right. Hon. Gentleman. The House having resolved kself into a Committee on the Penryn disfranchisement Bill, the preamble ( trans- ferring the right of electingtwo Members to sit in Parlia- ment from the borough of Penryn to the town of Man- chester) was read and agreed to. The Bill was reported, with amendments, and the re- port ordered to be received on Thursday next. The Order of the Day foi lie further consideration of the Report on the Corporation and Test Acts Repeal Bill being read, Lord John Russell said he fully agreed to the principle of the declaration suggested by the Right Hon. Gentle- man opposite ( Mr. Sturges Bourne) and supported by the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Home Department; and he did so upon the ground, that upon u question involving a difference upon a religious subject, it was desirable to terminate, as speedily as possible, the cxcitement to which the discussion of it naturally gave rise. Lord Nugent thought the declajation proposed by the Right Hon. Gentleman, the most conclusive and satis- factory that could bo suggested, and considered his con- duct to have entitled him to the thanks of that House, and, indeed, the country. The Report was ordered to be taken into further coil- sideration on Thursday next Adjourned. TUESDAY, March 2.5.— Mr. W. Horton rose to put off his motion relative to emigration, and in doing so he stated his regret at finding the iM embers of the Committee, frith whom he was associated, as well as the sense of the House, so much opposed to his views on this subject. ' The motion was then postponed line die, The Thames Tunnel Bill was read a second time. Mr. Fergusson presented a petition from the Inhabi- tants of Calcutta respecting private property in India. The petition was signed by the principal part of the Inha- bitants nf Calcutta. The obiccts of the petition, were, that it should be declared that freehold or fee simple Property should, as in this country, descend to the heirs ; but that, as in some of our Colonics, it should be sub- jected to tile rpvmentof simple contract debts. One ob- ject of the Bill which he intended to bring in on the sub- ject, was to effect the settlement of titles, by declaring the law on the right of British subjects to possess real property in India t the second would be to exempt real property as assets from claims of dowry. The introduc- tion of the insolvent Debtors' Laws into India was also a point to which he should feel it his duty to call attention, The petition was read and ordered to be printed. The Life Annuities Repeal Bill was read a third time, and passed. Lord Althorpe moved the second reading of the Free- holders' Registration Bill. Lord Lowther and the Attorney- General opposcd the bill. After- some discussion, a divisot) took place, when there appeared, for the Bill 32, against it 17- The Friendly Societies Bill was read a second time, and committed to a Select Committee. The Innkeepers' Bill was read a third time and passed— Adj. London. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26. Acconnts wove this morning received from St. Petersburg, to the I) til inst, The Guards marched towards the frontiers on the 11th. The emperor was im- mediately expected to leave the capital to head his armies in the invasion of Turkey. All goods were in demand, and higher. The Exchange with England was rather lower. VIENNA, March 15.— While all foreign Jour- nals are filled with reports of war, we are here firmlycoii- vincetl that the breaking out of war will be prevented, as Austria ( whose weight, in the scale is go great) must dciirc peace, both for political and commercial reasons. Letters from Frankfort, of the 16th, speak o| an intended interview between the Emperor of Austria nnd the Emperor Nicolas, at Lemberg, in Galicia. Prince Metternich and Count Nesselrode were to accom- pany their respective Sovereigns. The Augsburg Gazette states, that letters of the 1 nth ult. have been received from Constantinople, announcing that a new attempt hy the Ministers of Aus- tria and Prussia, to get the treaty of the fith of July agreed to by the Porte, has been indignantly rejected. It is understood that the depatches from Sir Frederick Lamb, inclose a correpondence which had been secretly carried on between Don Miguel and Ferdinand VII., for assimilating the Governments in each country. Don Miguel is represented in letters from Portugal to have been so extremely displeased at the re- fusal of our Ambassador to suffer the 50,0001. to be landed, as to have said, with much ill- humour, that " he considered the conditions imposed by the English Minis- try to be very extraordinary." " It is very possible," replied our Ambassador, " but my Government con- ceived them to be proper, and the event has proved that they judged wisely." Private letters state that the Emperor Don Pedro olily waits till peace shall have been concluded with Buenos Ayres, to return to Europe, where the affairs of Portugal require his presence— Journal ties Debits, March 24. Hy American papers just received it appears that a desperate action was fought on the 10th ult. be- tween the Mexican brig of war Guerrero, 22 guns, and two Spanish men of war brigs, one of 18 guns and 1I! 0 men, the other of 10 guns and 130 men, both of which she beat off', and they escaped to Mariel. The Lealtad frigate, of 54 guns and 500 men, at the Havannah, hear- ing the firing, put to sea, and coining up with the Guer- rero, engaged her txeo hours and twenty minutes before she struck Tier colours. Capt. Porter ( nephew of the late American Commodore), who commanded the Mexican brig, was killed, with 4! t of the crew. The loss of the Spaniards is stated at 200 killed, and the frigate much cut in her hull and rigging. Quebec papers represent the public nnnd in Canada as in a very unsettled state. An address to his Majesty has been moved in the Assembly, praying that Montreal may be included in Upper Canada, or that an union of the two Provinces may take place, or that all the British North American Colonics may be untied under a Vice- regal Goverement. The object in including Montreal is to gain a port, at which all imported goods, destined for Upper Canada, might be entered, and the duties collected prospectively. By the Sir Edward Banks steam- packet we have received Papers from Hamburgh to the 23d inst. An English Journal had been established, entitled the " Hamburgh Reporter," which promises to be of very general benefit. The accounts from the city of Mexico are to the 25th of January, and from Vera Cruz to the 4th of February. The Governor of the latter place is implicated in Bravo's conspiracy : he had marched from Vera Cruz with 1500 men, but was taken, and is now a prisoner in the fort of St. Jean de Ulloa— Bravo's party is completely subdued, only General Barragan, with a few followers in some part of the province of Vera Cruz, remaining in RETRENCHMENT.— Itis stated that tlie Duke of Wellington is determined io get rid of the Exchequer, the business of which will merge into the Treasury, or, more properly speaking, into the Bank. At present the money arising from taxes is paid into the Exchequer, and thence into the Bank. After the abolition of the Ex- chequer Office, it will be paid at once into the Bank, where it will be placed to the credit of the Treasury. By this arrangement a saving of about 70,1100/. a year will be effected. The Directorships of the South Sea Company, another source of useless expense to the country, are also to be abolished. It is said that Government have resolved upon admitting all foreign sugars, upon an additional duty of 6f. # A. more commodious Public Office is about to bo erected in lieu of the present inconvenient one in Bow- street. The Duke of Wellington suffers no Treasury Minute to stand over: they are all answered on the| day or the day after they are made, though under former Premiers, tlfey frequently stood over for months. On Saturday the 10th regiment of Hussars arrived at Portsmouth from Lisbon, as did also part of the 12th Lancers. ' Extract of a letter published and signed by " Harcourt Lees," dated Black Rock, March 21 :— " As to this unfortunate country, may their God forgive the fools who, I fear, have destroyed it— but I never will. The short- sighted system of encouraging Popery, and depressing the Protestant ( i. e. the British) interest, lias desolated the island with massacre and out- rage, from one end of it to the other. My opinions on this most dangerous violation of the great principles of the Reformation and Revolution have been teiS often be- fote the public, and I shall only observe that the Pro- testants of Ireland have at length, after years of patient forbearance of outrage, persecution, insult, and murder, denounced by the priests, and apparently deserted by the Government, called on vie, by a public requisition, and resolutions passed by all the northern counties, to save Ireland They have besought me to meet them in a general congress, in any place I choose to appoint in the province of Ulster, to advise and to direct them.

P., has recently purchased the estate called Lumps Farm, adjacent to this place, and is about to erect a marine villa. The spot marked out for its erec- tion is highly picturesque, and commands extensive views of the Isle of Wight, Spithead, and the surround- ing country. We understand the Giraffe at Windsor is in a very drooping state— Brighton Gazette. For 50/. worth of silk abstracted from a London traveller's bag in the coffee- room of the Black's Head Inn, Nottingham, a verdict to that amount was given at the assizes there last week against the landlord. In addressing the Jury, at Northumberland assizes last week, Mr. Justice Bayley informed them that uuder Mr. Peel's Act thieves could always be admitted as witnesses against receivers of stolen goods. The Learned Judge stated his wish that this fact be generally known. JURORS.— An elderly gentleman from Man- chester was summoned as a juror at the late Lancaster Assizes; he went there and appealed to the Court, and claimed exemption, being upwards of sixty years of age. Tlie judge immediately released him from his attendance, slating, that had an affidavit been sent it would have rendered his attendance unnecessary. Another circum- stance occurred which shews that a certificate of illness, from a medical man, will not protect an absent Juror from a fine. Another person was summoned on the jury at Lancaster, but sent in excuse a certificate of illness from his medical attendant: he was fined for non- attendance, the certificate not beinf$ accompanied by an affidavit, and there not being any one in court who could make oath of tlie illness of the party. GUILDHALL.— Another heavy charge of rob- bery was yesterday preferred by a master against his con- fidential servant at this Office. The accused in this in- stance was one John Davies, and the prosecutor Mr. Ellis, the well- known haberdasher on Ludgate- hill. Mr. Ellis, it appears, has such an extensive business that he employs upwards of sixty assistants on his pre- mises. The prisoner has been in his employ more than six years, anil was highly respected ; he was moreover a young man of verv respectable connections, and entitled to the reversion of' 10,000/. on the death of a sickly rela- tive now in his eighty- second year; besides other ex- pectancies, to the amount of more than 5,000/.; but notwithstanding all these advantages, in prospect and in possession, certain circumstances were sworn to which have consigned him to Newgate as a felon. The prisoner, throughout the examination, hid his face in his handkerchief, and appeared to be weeping; and declining to say anv thing in reply, to what had been alleged against him,' he was fully committed to Newgate for trial on a charge of " stealing a remnant of rose- coloured Persian." Ill the course of the examination it was stated, that a large bundle of letters were found in his box; many of them with female signatures, thanking him for the very handsome presents ( silk cloaks, be.) which he had sent them : and, in illustration of his habits, it was stated that his tailor's bill for the last year was upwards of 40/., ar. d that his drinking bill, at the Tobit'i Dog ( a hackney coach watering- house) amounted, in the same period, to more than BO/. On Wednesday evening a man thrust his hand through a pane of glass of . he shop window of Mr. W, Cockings, watch- maker, of Bridgewater, and en- deavoured to steal a watch; but, being pursued by Mr Cockings, was taken into custody, and on the following morning fully committed to gaol to take his trial at tlie next Assizes. The Bishop of Norwich has addressed a letter to the Rev. Mr. Selby, Unitarian Minister of Lynn, on receiving a petition from the Unitarians of that town for presentation to the House of Lords, in favour of a repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts. In this letter, the Prelate says, " For more than half a century I have been uniformly of opinion that civil disabilities, on account of religious tenets, are inconsistent with all true ideas of justice, of policy, and of Christian charity; I shall there- fore have great pleasure in presenting your petition to the House of Lords, and this pleasure will be much increaseel by the conviction which I feel that the day is at hand when the claims both of Catholics and Protestant Dis- senters will receive from the Legislature that attention to which they are so fully entitled— Should my very ad- vanced age render me unable to take a journey, your petition will not be neglected, as I can, without diffi- culty, find a far more efficient, though not a more cor- dial^ friend than myself to the cause of civil and reli- gious liberty." POTATOES.— Extract of a communication, made by J. Postle, Esq. of Colney, near Norwich, to Sir John Sinclair, Bart., on the subject of feeding Cattle with Potatoes: " Mr. Postle employs all the potatoes he raises, in feeding bullocks for tile London market; and thinks that that it would be " felo de se" for any farmer to raise po- tatoes, if he did not consume them on his farm ; for if he acted otherwise, he would soon neither be able to raise potatoes nor corn, from the impoverished state of the land. " The potatoes Mr. Postle gives his bullocks are not washed, but merely shaken in a coarse riddle, that the dirt ami the very small potatoes may fall through. He generally commences feeding the cattle with them about the end of autumn ot the beginning of winter, as soon as he has got them all taken up, or neatly so. He seldom gives any thing with them but barely- straw, till about March, when they get some hay; being of opinion, that as an animal advances towards fatness, the quality of his food ought to be improved ; and it fortunately happens, that, to his conviction, the potatoes are much more nu- tritious in the spring, and never so muoh so as when in the heaps they have put out shoots, ( these shoots might be collected and planted, which would save seed,) and even tops, so as to form a mass vety difficult to « " » *•• Bv following this plan, he never failed to make his bul- locks fit for the London market t and one year, when hay was very scarce, with potatoes an8 barley- straw alone. Last spring twelvemonths, a dealer who had bought some of his bullocks, ( the Durham shorthorns), and taken them to Smithfield, told Mr. Postle, that the salesman said, " These are the light things; they have been fed on something good." " What," he replied, " do you think they have had ?" " Corn." said the other, " or cake." " No," ( said the dealer) " nothing but raw po- tatoes and hay;" which the salesman would not believe. Bullocks fed on potatoes are mote or less subject to a sort of eruption in the hinder legs, something like the grease or farcy in horses. Mr. Postle has, therefore, in the yard, or rather under the shed, a place inclosed with rails, which he calls the hospital." By attention in putting them into this place on the first appearance of the disease, and giving them turnips, or corn, or any thing but potatoes, they very speedily recover; by which, and giving them at all times an abundant supply of fresh wa- ter, he has not suffered any material inconvenience from it. In 1026, he had rather less than thirty acres of pota- toes, with which he fattened ( beginning to feed with them about November 20,) twenty Scotch bullocks, which weighed when fat, about 52 or 54st., 141b. per stone, and twenty- six heifers, which weighed about 43st. He also fed ten cows on them, or such of them as were in milk, for two or three months, and from twenty to thirty lean beasts for at least another month, to say nothing of what he boiled for pigs, poultry, & c. or what he reserved for seed. He would never give them to cows if he had turnips for them, the milk being thin, and the butter white and insipid. He does not consider potatoes of any use to pigs; and far less to sheep, having a purgative effect on them. [ In allusion to this last remark of Mr. Postle, the editor of the Farmers' Journal says, " Here steaming would be of great use : Mr. Postle should try some with steamed, and some with raw potatoes, to see the difference."] " Potatoes require an extra quantity of manure, about 50 per cent, more than turnips. It is said the rest of the farm is robbed by this means. So it would, if the pota- toes were sold off the farm ; but by feeding bullocks on them in the yard, the farmer gets cent, per cent, more of muck or dung in quantity, and of a quality greatly su- perior than from the like number of acres of turnips." A newly- modeled stagecoach, to run between Bath and Bristol, started on Monday morning. Its general appearance conveys an idea of convenience and safety, arising from its lowness; but the principal novelty consists in the application of a patent locking wheel, by means of which the coach is rendered incapable of being overturned by any of the ordinary occurrences. In France the plans and specifications of all public buildings are first submitted to the judgment of a Government architect, with full power to reject or alter them as he may judge necessary. A document of great importance has been presented to the House of Commons— this annunl abstract of the returns of the Poor Rates levied and expended, with comparisons showing their increase or diminution. The accounts show the expenditure of the year ended 25th March 1827, compared with the previous year. The total sum levied in all the counties of England and Wales, in the last year, was 7,489,694/.; the sum expended for the relief of the poor, 6,179,877/. The increase in that throughout the whole of England and Wales is nine per cent. This is in part to be accounted for by the temporary distress of the manufacturing districts. ( In Lancaster the increase was 47— in the West Riding of York 3] per cent). There was a diminution in Berks of two, Hamp- shire five, and Suffolk four per cent. It may not be generally known that persons who commit suicide, and respecting whom the coroner's iury return a verdict of " felo- de- se," are buried at night in a Church- yard, without any funeral ceremony. DESTRUCTION OF FEVER.—( From Dr. Gra- ham's " Modem Domestic Medicine.")— When a num- ber of children are living in the same house where the measles is present, as in boarding schools, poor houses, & c. it is of much moment to be acquainted with the means of preventing the spread of the contagion, and I would here recommend the free use of the chlorides of sodium or of lime as a safe and effectual antidote. See the manner of using them at page 181. M. Labarraque, of Paris, says that he has lately witnessed a satisfactory instance in which the infection arising from measles, which had occurred in a boarding school, had been per- fectly arrested, without the removal of any of the pupils, by the employment of these chlorides And M. Lis- franc, surgeon in chief of the hospital La Pitié, in Paris, lias fully ascertained that the air of wards where small- pox patients are confined, no longer communicates the disease, whilst daily sprinklings with these solutions are employed. There can be no doubt that the same means will prove of equal efficacy in arresting the progress of the infection of scarlet fever, & c. A correspondent of the Gazette of Health gives the following as a very superior preparation of lavender water:—" Take of English ml of lavender flowers, three drachms; oil of angelica root, six drops; rectified spirit of wine, one pint. After being shaken in a quart bottle, add one ounce of fresh orange flower water, an ounce of fresh rose water, and four ounces of distilled water. To this composition, those who like the musky odour, may add two or three drachms of the es- sence of ambergis, or of the essence of musk. Some chemists use the French oil of lavender, which is not one- fourth of the price of the English oil, and this has lately been as soft and fragrant as the latter, and by druggists in the country is generally sold for it." A weekly newspaper was last month to be issued at New Echota, in the Cherokee nation, to be called " The Cherokee Phoenix." A part of the paper to be printed in the Cherokee language, according to an al- phabet lately invented by a native Cherokee. The first two numbersare received of a news- paper published in English at Canton, dated 8th and 15th Nov.; one department of the paper is devoted to the description of Chinese laws and manuers— a plan which, if carried into effect with talent, will be instructive and amusing. These papers state that the illuminations and street plays in honour of the God of Fire ( kept for one month) had been the occasion of much destruction among the houses in the outskirts of the town. PHEASANTS.— As a proof of the destruction of this species of game by the poachers, we know that one dealer alone has sent to different gentlemen in the country not less than 1,200 brace of live pheasants within the last month. The practice of killing so many cock birds at the end of the season is found to be very injurious to breeding, and is the cause of so many hen birds dying in their nests. An old hen pheasant, when past sitting, lias been found more destructive to the eggs and young of others than any vermin— We insert the above for the information of our sporting readers, as the observations of an old and respectable game- keeper of forty years standing— Globe. THE SALMON.— Mr. Pennant informed Mr. Cox, that this fish makes its passage annually from the sea as high as the Linth, in Switzerland, in order to de- posit its spawn ; its progress is up the Rhine, from that river up the Aar, anel through the lake of Zurich into the Linth, a course of many hundred miles. Four brothers and two sons, all residing in Suffolk, and occupying, in separate farms, about 4,000 acres, lately met at Mr. Tydeman's, of Framlingham, and played some of Haydn's Quintetts with very good effect; two of the family taking first and second violins, a third the tenor, a fourth the violoncello, and a fifth the clarionet. An accusation of murder, under most horri- ble circumstances, is to be brought before the Assizes for the department of La Sarthe. A widow woman, named Hautreux, is to be tried on a charge of having thrown her new- born infant into an oven, in which it was nearly reduced to ashes. The fragments of the bones are to be produced as evidence of the unnatural mother's guilt. At Lancaster assize, James Ashton, one of a party of poachers, for shpoting at and dangerously wound- ing ' Peter Lucas, a gamekeeper, at Eccleston, received sentence of death, without hope of mercy. Most of the churchyards in the neighbour- hood of Chichester are now regularly watched for some weeks after a funepal, in consequence of the numerous | instances of dUinterraant which have occurred there. Ills Majesty has been ileased to transmit to the Lord Mayor, through Mi. Secretary Peel, a dona- tion of one hundred guineas in aid of the Grand Concert to be held at Guildhall, on Saturday morning next, for the benefit of the National Ward and Parochial Schools in the city of London. Itis said that apowcrfjl deputation of landed proprietors is about to wait en the Duke of Wellington, as Prime Minister, for the pirpose of proving to the Go- vernment that the agricultural interest of the country is unduly depressed, and that ene of the remedies few this depression ought to be an inerease of the import duty on foreign wool from 1 d. to ' id. i pound. Reformation of Convicts.— Mr. Peel 1K, S de- termined to send all juvenile convicts, who sliaU be sentenced to transportation fer seven years, to work at the hulks for that or a less per? od, depending for its diminu- tion on the degree of repentance and amended conduct exhibited by them. A long and severe fight ot 5C rounds took place yesterday, near Chertsey, between Harry Jones and Bill Savage, for 251, a si'de. Savage had the advantage ill weight and strength, but was vety inferior, in science, to Jones, who ultimately beat him, both of Savage's eyes being completely closet! before he gave in. Jones was quite unhurt. The fight wis numerously attended. EXECUTION.— This moinins' two men were executed at Newgate: Alexander Ephraim Shorter, for uttering forged bank- notes; and Samuel Weedon, for a burglary. Both of them acknowledged the justiccof their sentences, and died in a state of penitence. George Wyeth, for a highway robbery, was to have been executed with the above men ; but on account of some circumstances that have transpired in his favour, his execution has been respited till Friday next. Twenty- four pairs of hard polished scissors, weighing altogether only one grain, have just been ma- nufactured by Mr. Peter Hatherton, of Spring- street, Sheffield. An error occurred in this paper last week, ii » ff state- ment of the population of the City of London; the number should have been 52,000. We have heard of many instances wherein fright is said to have produced strange effects on the hu- man system. The following account riw upon the authority of a highly respectable medical gentleman resi- dent in London. At the funeral of the late Duke of York, a gentleman well known for his antiquarian re- searches, whose name we withhold, descended into the Royal cemetery at Windsor, after the interment had taken place, and engaged himself in copying inscriptions from various coffins. While thus engaged, and absorbed in thought, he heard the door of the cemetery close with an appalling sound, the taper fell from his hand, and he remained petrified by the knowledge of his awful situa- tion, entombed with the dead. He had not power to pick up the taper, which was soon extinguished by the noisome damp, and he imagined that the cemetery would not be re- opened until another Royal interment should take place ; and thus he must soon, from the effects of famine, be numbered with the dead. He swooned, and remained insensible for some time. At length recovering himself, he rose upon his knees, placed his hands upon a moul- dering coffin, and, to use his own words, " felt strength to pray." A recollection then darted across his mind, that he had heard the workmen say, that about noon they should revisit the cemetery, and take away some plumes, & c, which they left there. This somewhat calmed his spirits. Soon after twelve o'clock he heard the doors turn upon their grating hinges, he called for assistance, and was soon conveyed to the regions of day. His clothes were damp, anel a horrible dew hung on his hair, which in the course of a few hours turned from black to grey, and soon after to white. The pain which he felt in the scapula during the period of his incarceration, he de- scribed to our informant to be dreadful. This is, perhaps, the best authenticated account upon record of a man's hair turning grey from fright.— Macclesfield Courier. SHIPWRECK.— Wc have received the follow, ing particulars of the loss of the Venus steam- vessel, tinting thedreadful stoim of Tuesday night. The Venus left Waterford on Tuesday for Dublin. When she was about mid- way off the coast, in a heavy gale of wind, part of her machinery broke, by which a large bolt was struck against her bottom with such force that it passeel through. She immediately began to fill with water, and all hands Were at work at the pumps, but when it grew dark, the captain, mate, stewards, and some of the sailors, got into the boat, and left four of the sailors with all their passengers to their fate. Previous to the captain's quitting the vessel she was but a mile from the shore, in five or six fathoms water, and had he called on the sailors to drop the anchor, all would have been safe ; but the wind and tide carried her out about two miles before the passengers thought of dropping it, and then it was too late to make use of it. The vessel filled fast, ar. d in about an hour from the time the Captain left her, she went down. Nine persons, five passengers and the four sailors, got up on the mainmast, the top of which was about four feet over the water. They clung to the ropes and masts as long as they could. Mr. Williams, of Ross, a passenger, endeavoured to preserve the life of a young woman ; he held her up until she died from ex- cessive fright, fatigue, and the continued ( hrsising of the water; he afterwards rendered assistance to a young man, a relation of his own, but he was also drowned by the waves repeatedly washing over him; at this moment, two sailors gave way, and sunk; Mr. Williams, how- ever, and four others, by uncommon exertion, kept to the mast until morning, when the waterguard boat, ( which had put to sea when the Captain landed,) per- ceived them, and relieved them from their dreadful situa- tion. Four women were lost— the number of men not known.— Dublin Evening Post. BRUTALITY.— In a public- house quarrel, at the Crown and Anchor, Gloucester, on Saturday night the 15th inst., a man named Henry Bryan had the end of his nose bitten off by his antagonist, named William Wood. The latter, with a companion in the outrage, has been committed for trial at the assize. At Maidstone Assizes on Saturday, Mrs. Mignon and 2 female servants were charged with having killed Fanny Fetor, a girl of colour, at Greenwich, by striking her with a stick, and exposing her to the incle- mency of the weather: Mrs. Mignon ( through her Coun- sel) read a written defence, shewing the morose disposition of the girl, and the kindness with which she was ever treated by her mistress and fellow- servants: the Jury were so satisfied that the girl brought on her own death by the violence of her temper, frequently throwing off her clothes and running naked in the yard, and dashing herself on the ground in exasperation for being in th » slightest degree thwarted, & c., that they would not wait for the summing up of the Judge, but immediately ac- quitted the prisoners, to the satisfaction of a crowded Court. Mr. Phillips, a professional gentleman of Louth, Lincolnshire, having committed forgeries to a large amount, cut his throat at Hull last week: un- bounded confidence having been placed in his integrity, many families are ruined by his conduct.

The reward to be paid out of the Couty Rate. The King v. Snow.— This was an indictment at Devon assizes against the defendant, William Snow, a surgeon and apothecary, lately residing at Bow, in the county of Devon, for a libel on Miss Reed, of the same place. The defendant pleaded Guilty, and Mr. Justice Gazelee, in passing sentence on him, expatiated on the aggravated description of the libel, and its total destitu- tion of truth, and therefore sentenced the defendant to 6 calendar months imprisonment in the common gaol of the county, and that at the expiration of that perioel he should find sureties for his good behaviour for 2 years. At Exeter assizes, Wm. Crossman, aged 19 was convicted of having, on ^ he 30th May last, committed an assault of a most revolting description on Eliza Hunt, of Sandford, then only six years and a half old. He was sentenced to two years imprisonment and hard labour. The judge told him he had had a narrow escape for his life ; if lie had been convicted of the capital offence, he should certainly have left him for execution. At Exeter assizes on Friday, a young man named Parkin was put up to receive judgment on having pleaded guilty to a charge of burglary. Mr. Justice Gaselee having intimated to him that his life would be spared, but that he would be sent out of the country for ever, the prisoner very coolly, and without any thing flippant or offensive in his manner, assured his Lordship that he felt much obliged for his sentence; and that his condition in this country was so bad, and he received here such a variety of ill- usage, that if he were at perfect liberty, and possessed the means of carrying his wishes into effect, he would immediately transport himself for life. EXECUTION FOR MURDER.— Jane Scott, aged 22, was convicted at Lancaster Assizes of the murder of her own mother, and executed on Saturday. She had infused arsenic into some porridge, of which both her father and mother partook ; the latter died, but the for- mer was saved by the prompt application of medical re- medies Previously to her execution she confessed that she had not only murdered her mother, and intended to take away the life of her father by the same means, but that she had murdered two illegitimate children, the one her own offspring, the other belonging to her sister. At Stafford assizes, Joseph Preston, a man of respectable appearance, aged 48, was found guilty of felonious assaults upon his daughters, Mary Preston, aged 11 years, and Ann Preston, ageel 16. Mr. Baron Vaughan passed sentence upon him, and recommended him to make the best use of the few days that remained to him, in preparing himself for the presence of his offended Maker. Three poachers ( very young men) were exe- cuted at Reading on Saturday hist, for wounding and robbing the keepers of G. H. Crutchley, Esq. at Sun- ning Hill. CORN EXCHANGE, March 26.— Our supplies have been tolerably large; nevertheless fine samples of Wheat fully supported Monday's improvement. Barley also sells full as well as on that day, and the grinding sorts were more sought after. Oats, which at the close of Monday's market sold full Is. per quarter deare for fine fresh corn, did not support that amendment this morning, the arrival being large; still the prices of the mgriiipg of that day were maiatainfd.

THE Garonne has arrived at Cadiz from Rochefort, after a passage of eleven days, with 108 cavalry on board, to replace those men who were freed ttoro service. The inhabitants of Cadiz are, by this cir. cumstance, led to believe that there is no question of the departure Of the French troops, which they say depends upon the amnesty promised by the Spanish Government, » na the effect which it will produce. On thi> other hand, the atnnfety itself is looked upon as depending on the conduct of Don Miguel in Portugal, which was not known at the date of our letters. . _ .. , . .

Petitions were presented agmnt the repeal ot the lest and Corporation Acts, ar. d against the importation of foreign wool Adjourned to Friday. HOUSE OF COMMONS. WEDNESDAY, March 20 On the motion of Mr. Alexander, a new writ was moved for Old Sarum, in the room of Mr. J. D. Alexander, who has accepted the Stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds. • A number of petitions were presented against the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts. Mr. Dawson brought in a Bill for appropriating cer- tain Balances in the Exchequer to the services of the year 18211, which was read a first time— Adj. THURSDAY, March 37— Sir Joseph Yorke pa- tented two petitions from the Vauxhall- bridge Company, against the intended new bridge over the Thames at Lam- beth. Not one of the new bridges over the Thames paid the interest of the Capital sunk in building it; and he thought that, in mercy to the supporters of the new bridge, the House should not permit them to ruin them- " Soveral petitions were presented in favour of the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts. Lord J. Russell said, the petition he held in his hand was one of great importance. The petitioners ( the elec- tors of Canterbury) complained that they had elected Mr. Lushington to be their representative in that House, and he had since gone out to Madras as Civil Governor. The petitioners prayed the House to declare the seat ot Mr. Lushington vacated.— Ordered to be printed. Mr. Wilmot Horton said he had received a communi- cation from the Home Secretary, in consequence of which he had postponed his motion on the subject of emigration until Monday. He would now make an explanation on the nature of his bill. He would not allow parishes to borrow or advance money without the consent of four- fifths of the rate payers. He wished also, that parishes should be compelled to keep a separate account when they paid able bodied labourers for work, that would shew clearly where there was a surplus population; he also proposed tiiat the owners of cottages shomd be compelled to pay poor- rates for them. That, he was convinced, would tend asmuch anything to keep the population down. Mr. Lester conceived that the proposition ot the right hon. gent, was a most dangerous innovation. Mr. J. Smith lamented the little attention the hon. gentleman met with. The state of the poor ill some parts of the country was so bad that he could not attempt to describe it. ' Alderman Waithman brought forward his motion re- lative to the Canada Company. The grant which » ali been made of land in Canada to the company, was in ins opinion a most improvident one; the Government had granted the company a million of acres, at about 3s. per acre; and the company did not advance any sums to the emigrants to induce them to go out, but charged them a considerable profit— Why should not this profit— it it were to be drawn from the public at all— go into the pockets of the Government, and not to individuals ? He concluded with moving for returns of the quantity of land granted to the Canada company, the sums tliey had received for allotments of land, and the quantities so allotted. Mr. W. Horton spoke against the motion. Mr. Easthope stated that the Company would give awry information required on the subject. After some discussion the motion was withdrawn. The Chancellor of the Exchequer gave notice, on the part of a Riuht Hon. Friend ( Mr. C. Grant), that he would to- morrow move that the House should resolve lt- lilf into a Committee, to consider of the Corn Trade Acts. Mr. Gordon brought up the Report of the Pauper Lu- natics Asylum Bill, to which some amendments were made— Adjourned. London, FRIDAY, MARCH 28. 1 L . WINDSOR, March 26.— His Majesty, it is laid, will arrive on Saturday next at the Royal Lodge, everything being prepared for his reception. It is ex- pected that after the holydays his Majesty will again go t6 London, where he will, it is said, remain a month or more. , . At the next drawing- room lus Majesty lias been induced, by the remonstrances of his Physicians, to determine to receive the company sitting. The Duchess of Gloucester, however, who is to aid his Majesty on the occasion, is to remain standing. His Majesty held the first Levee for this Mason yesterday at St. James's Palace. Soon after two o'clock his Majesty entered the Royal Closet, and gave audiences to the Dukes of Gloucester and Wellington, and the Earl of Warwick, who kissed hands on being appointed a Lord of the Bedchamber. The foreign Am- bassadors, the Cabinet Ministers, the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, Lord Hill, Duke of Norfolk, & c. were then introduced; after which the King proceeded M the state chair in the Throne room. His Majesty was habited in a blue regimental dress, wearing the insignia ef several English and Foreign Orders, and was sur- rounded by nil his Great Officers of State, Equerries in Waiting, & c. The presentations were very numerous, unci tiie Levee did not terminate till past five o'clock. The Duke of Norfolk carried his baton as Earl Marshal of England, and the Duke of St. Alban's appeared in the splendid costume of Grand Falconer of England, with his gold chain and medal. His Majesty appeared in ex- cellent health, and went through tiio fatigue of the day • rith great cheerfulness. The Paris papers of Tuesday positively affirm hat no military movement has yet taken place in Russia. It is stated in a letter from Paris, that one of the first acts of the French Government, after the Morea thall have been cleared of the Turks and Egyptians, will he, to establish commercial and other relations with the Government of Greece, and to Send out Consuls to the different ports of the Morea, and to the Greek islands. LISBON, March 12,— The arrival of the In- fant Don Miguel, has unchained alt the disorders and all tile passions, pent up in this unfortunate kingdom, and exasperated the national spirit. The English are over- whelmed with outrages in seditious pamphlets; English families who had established their residence in the capi- tal— rich merchants of the same nation— liaVe signified to their Ambassador, Sir F. Lamb, their just fears, re- specting the spirit of revolt and of civil war, which has bet'. n silently fermented. Not without cause do they fear that tlneir property will be pillaged at a crisis of sudli violence. If the germs of discord ire manifested among the people, a misunderstanding subsists also between Sir Sir F. Lamb and Don Miguel. Irritated at seeing his hopes frustiated, and the Loan sent back which was origi- nally to secure on a solid basis, the peace and the liber- ties of the nation, but which he designed to apply to the overthrow of the Charter and the Constitutional Institu- tions, the Infant openly avowed his surprise and discon- tent ; but nothing could alter the policy or shake the re- solution of Sir F. Lamb. He declared that he had rc- rtceived instruction* not to deliver the funds which had been raised, but in the event of the stipulations contained in tbe arrrangement between the two countries not having been violated. In consequence of this serious altercation, he has written to his Government to obtain its decisive rmolution, and it appears that he only waits for autho- rity to do so, to take his departure. Meanwhile the ves- sel has set sail with the money on its return to England. All sorts of. attempts appear to have been been made by pamphlets and placards to excite the Por- tuguese ng: iirjst th" c English, and to induce them to revolt. Meanwhile the British Ambassador did not fail to remon- strate with Don Miguel, and to signify to him, in the most unequivocal manner, that he was not authorised, under any circumstances, to recognise the Infant in any other capacity than the Lieutenant of his Brother, King Pedro, governing the kingdom conformably tn the Charter. The report of the approach of the Marquis De Chaves to Lisbon, with all the followers lie could collect, with the intention of proclaiming Miguel, had ceased to excite much alarm when the last accounts left Lisbon. The strong representations that had been made, of the conse- quences that must result from such a step, had induced the advisers of it to delay, if not to abandon it altogether. Many persons begin to think that Don Miguel will shrink from executing the designs that hnve been imputed to liini, and that he will be deterred by the manner in which the inhabitant^ of Lisbon and the troops have con- ducted themselves during these attempts to excite revolt. Letters received by a merchant vessel from Oporto, dated the 15th instant, state that every thing re. miined tranquil. * Tbe accounts froix the upper vine country ond from Tras os Montes continued very unfa- vourable for the constitutional system. We are not often irt '. he habit, and if, deed it is but very rarely, wc have mom to notice, works of contemporary genius, but a late Poem. by a young Man, called The Omnipresence of toe Diety, dedicated to the excellent Bishop of London, is of such unprecedented interest and beauty, that we are happy in availing ourselves of * n opportunity of submitting to our readers, a specimen. The specimen we select is that of great sublimity, both in the ideas and expression, but the poem abounds with many pathetic pictures, and passages of equal btatsty and interest. THE THUNDER STORM. YE giant winds f that from your gloomy sleep Rise in your wrath, and revel on the deep Lightnings ! that are tile mystic gleams of God, That glanc'd when on the sacred mount he trod ; And ye, ye thunders! that begird His form. Pealing your loud hosannahs o'er the storm ! Around me rally in your mingled might. And strike my being with a dread delight; Sublimely musing, let me pause and see, And pour my awe- struck soul, 0 God ! to Thee, A thunder- storm !— the eloquence of heaven, When every cloud is from its slumber riven, Who hath not paused beneath its hollow groan, And felt Omnipotence around him thrown ? With what a gloom the ush'ring scene appears! The leaves all flutt'ring with instinctive fears, The waters curling with a fellow dread, A breezeless fervour round creation spread, And, last, the heavy rain's reluctant shower. With big drops patt'ring on the tree and bower, While wizard shapes the bowing sky deform,— All mark the coming of the thunder- storm! Oh ! now to be alone, on some grand height. Where heaven's black curtains shadow all the sight, And watch the swollen clouds their bosom clash, While fleet and far the living lightnings flash,— To mark the caverns of the sky disclose The furnace- flames that in their wombs repose, And see the fiery arrows fall and rise. In dizzy chase along the rattling skies,— How stirs the spirit while the echoes roll, And God, in thunder, rocks from pole to pole! CONDEMNED SERMON— John Hattat, aged 42, was executed at Fisherton Gaol on Tuesday last, for sheep- stealing. A sermon was preached in the Chapel of the gaol ( tn Sunday, by the Rev. Mr. Hodgson, from 2 Tim. ch. 4, v. ti: " For I am now rcadv to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand."— The Rev. Clergyman concluded his sermon with the following, affecting personal address to the prisoner s My unhappy brother, your fate but too nearly resem- bles that of the aged and pious sufferer ( the apostle St. Paul), of whose end I have been discoursing. You, like him, are now " ready to be offered, and the time of your departure is at liand." Unfortunately, however, you will not be offered up as a sacrifice to the truth of the Gospel, nor yet will depart, as he did, with the crown of martyrdom. You have, alas! become a victim to the offended laws of your country: to laws which taught pou, and which teach your fellow subjects, to respect the pro- perty of his neighbour. Far be it from me to add trouble to the afflicted, oi to wound a soul already suffering un- der the consciousness of guilt. When I entreat you to review the past, when I call you to examine your own heart, to read w hat conscience records, it is that you may pay due attention to its dictates, and prepare for the awful future which awaits you. The death you are about to suffer, is nothing, when compared with that which awaits the finally impenitent. The death of the body appears, in prospect, more dreadful than it i,: the death of the soul, is, beyond comparison, terrible ! The former you cannot avoid, the latter you may: there is nothing to prevent it but yourself. God has no pleasure in the death of the sinner; he would rather that he should turn from his wickedness and live. Whatever sins may bur- then your conscience, confess them to God, and he will assuredly pardon thein. Plead the atoning blood of Jesus Christ: he came to save sinners, and such a sinner as you. " He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not, he will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light." David was guilty of the com- plicated crimes of murder and adultery, yet God par- doned his iniquity: and, therefore, as well IO record the fact as to encourage you and all mankind to trust in his mercy, he gives us this account of his exercise, " I said I will confess my sin unto the Lord, and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin i" and he adds for your encou- ragement, that every one that follows his example shall meet witli similar success. Think on the case of wicked Manassch; yet when situated in similar cir- cumstances with yourself, when bound with fetters and in a dungeon, he prayed, he confessed his sin, and the Lord hearkened, and heard him, and forgave his transgressions. Think, too, on one, to whom, alas! your situation bears but too striking a resemblance ; I allude to the thief on the cross, lie, you know, had been a malefactor, and but the moment before mercy had been extended to him, had been reviling the suffering Saviour. Jesus is as equally near to you, as he was to the thief on the cross. O! that like him you would humbly, penitently, and fervently cry, " Lord, remem- ber me, when thou comest into thy kingdom;" and the merciful redeemer will as assuredly say to you, as he did to him, " Verily, I say unto thee, this day shalt thou be with me in Paradise." Paul, you have beard, was a blasphemer, and injurious, ' yet he " obtained mercy ;" and the mercy that he ob- | tained is as free to you as it was to Mm. The love of God to sinners is no whit abated : lie waits that he may be gracious. Hear how he expostulates—" Why will ye die, 0 house of Israel ?" Observe how he encourages the returning sinner. You remember the parable of the Prodigal Son, who, when " he was yet a great way off," was seen, was met, was embraced, and welcomed to his Father's house. 0 ! that like him, you may be induced to make the heart- felt confession," Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son." God, your heavenly Father, will receive you, will forgive your sins, will welcome you into his presence, and associate you with the spirits of just men made perfect. Great is the consolation that you need: if you follow the instructions I have given, you will happily receive it. Little is the comfort that man can now yield you. God only can afford you that grace which will enable you to meet your approaching fate with fortitude and resignation. It is he only who can bind up the broken in heart, and heal thett painful wounds. He informs you that he pays particular atten- tion to the sighs of the prisoners, and especially those amongst them who are appointed unto death. O ! that he may incline your heart to trust his gracious declara- tions, to repose on his mercy through the atoning blood and righteousness of our gracious Redeemer. May he strengthen you to undergo the last hard trial that awaits you, and in death make you more than a conqueror through Him that loved us. " And now, I commend you to God and the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among them that are sanctified through faith and love, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." On Tuesday the Bath Auxiliary Church Missionary Society held its tenth anniversary; it was most respectably and more numerously attended than on any former occasion. Lieut. General Sir Wm. Cockburn, Bart, took the chair. The report stated that there had been an increase in the number of subscribers during the past year, and that the receipts had amounted to 42IW. VJs. M., 330/. of which had been remitted to the Parent Institution, The Rev. Mr. Bickersteth ( from London) rejoiced at the progress of the cause of missions, as prosecuted by the Protestant Church at large ; 300,000 heathens have renounced idolatry, and embraced the knowledge of the only true God. It was not merely to Europe that we were to look, America now raised .' 10,0001. per annum for the support of missions. In the foreign operations of the Society, in West Africa, India, New Zealand, and the West Indies, success was gradually advancing. The Rev. Mr. Wilson observed that from a calculation which had been made, it appeared that if 5000 converts were added to the Church every day, it would take 300 years for the conversion of those who were now in darkness. RECEIPT STAMPS REPEAL.— Last week, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in conjunction with Mr. Dawson, gave audience to a deputation from Bristol on the subject of the repeal of the stamp duties on receipts, accompanied by the Members for the city, Mr. Hart Davis and Mr. Bright. Tliey were most courteously re- ceived, and attentively listened to. Tile detail and proofs into which the gentlemen entered of the practical evils attendant upon the payment of the tax, as to its partiality and vexatiousness, and which oc- cupied more than an hour, appeared to make a consider- able impression on the Right Hon. Gentleman. The Chancellor of the Exchequer acknowledged to the deputation that the representations which they made de- served, and should have, his serious consideration ; and he intimated that in an act he meant to introduce in the next session, all those penalties that arc intended to be continued shall be expressly defined : and which act should includc a revision and emendation of the present Stamp Acts. DARING BURGLARY.— On Friday night the premises of Mr. Montague, in Park- row, Bristol, were broken into. The thieves began their . operations by at- tempting to force open the counting- house door, which from its strength and fastenings resisted their efforts j they then cut out a pannel of it, and obtained an en- trance ; the locks of the different desks were then forced, and the contents of the latter ransacked and strewed about; the iron chest, weighing upwards of 12 cwt. was displaced and rolled into the court- yard, but they did not succeed in opening it— After this they broke open four more doors, and gained entrance into the dwelling, house, where they proceeded to pack up plate, clothes, & c Fortunately a female servant, who was disturbed by the barking of a little dog, went down stairs, and in the kitchen saw one of the depredators standing with a bundle in his hand— this led to an alarm being given, when the thieves ran off t one was soon taken, and three others have since been apprehended; all of whom have been fully committed for trial. ^ Phe same night the shop and warehouses of Messrs. Pritchard and Son, in High- street, Bristol, were entered either by means of a skeleton key, or by some person or persons being secreted upon the premises— The desks of die counting- house were forced: open, aftd some loose silver and copper taken— The thieves were alarmed, and left behind them some candles and a phosphorus box. There appears to be a great redundancy of unemployed capital at tbe prttfait moment, not only in England, but on the Continent. Tho interest of money in Germany is remarkably low. According to letters from Hamburgh, unexceptionable bills may be discounted at one per cent, per annum. In Holland money is nearly as cheap as in Hamburgh. The Bank of Amsterdam has reduced the rate of discount to 1J per cent. MADRID, March 11.— It is asserted that the King will shortly send one of our best diplomatists to Mexico, and that Mexico toll Send M. Ballare, one of its most distinguished citizens, who was, during the Con- stitutional system. Deputy to the Cortes, to Spain. It is added that the negotiations which are to be opened relate solely to the restoration of commercial intercourse, which has been too long interrupted. Two priests, who are sentenced to death by provincial tribunals, arrived in this capital, and were lodged in pri- son until tlje Alcaldes de Casa y Corte can revise the pro- ceedings. Thus there are no less than three priests under Sentence of death in our prisons. GENEVA, March 14.— According to private letters which have been received here from Greece, the greatest grief and consternation prevails there, in conse- quence of Ibrahim's having sent thousands of young girls and women from the Morea to Egypt aS slaves, without even a word from the allied Admirals, or a signal from their ships to hinder him. Yet the intention of the Turks to execute this cruel purpose could not be unknown, because it had been long before the subjcct of loud lamentations through the whole Peloponnesus and in the islands. The Greeks, thetcfore, believe that the instructions of the Admirals have been changed since the battle of Navarino, so that they cannot now oppose such enormities — Allgemeine Zeitung, March 20. BUCHAREST, March 1.— The assurance that our Hospodar has received from Constantinople, that the Porte will in no case send any troops into the Principa- lities,, has given much satisfaction here; because the Russians will be thereby deprived of eveiy pretext, and thus tin advance of their army into our country would be a real aggression. The Hamburg Correspondent of the 19th, under date of Berlin, 10th March, states that news had just been received of the march of the Imperial Guards from St. Petersburg. When Ibrahim Pacha took Missolonghi, he compelled his Greek prisoners to cut off the ears of their countrymen who fell in the battle, and pickle them, for the purpose of their being sent to Constantinople as trophies of his victory. As they did not appear suffi- ciently numerous, he caused to be added the ears of several Turks who had fallen. The prisoners, however, intro- duced into each barrel of the latter ears the following paper:—" It will be seen by the length of these cars that they are not Greek." Accounts have been received from the Blos- som frigate, Capt. Beechy, stating the arrival of that ship at St. Bias, in December last, from Behring's Straits. Capt. Beechy entered Kotzebue's Inlet, and sustained very severe and bad weather, which prevented the Blos- som penetrating so far as she did in the summer of 1828, in search of Captain Franklin and his patty. Captain Beechy fell in with some natives who were extremely hostile, and from whose conduct fears were entertained that the party he was in quest of had been destroyed by those ferocious people. After remaining as long as pos- sible, the Blossom left the coast, and proceeded to the southward, and may be expected home in the course of the summer. Capt. Beechy, his officers, and crew, were all in good health. The following expressions of Buonaparte, addressed to Mr. Ellis, at St. Helena, will be now read with interest:— Russia has still her designs upon Constantinople. To obtain my consent to his projects upon Turkey was the great wish of the Emperor Alexander, but in vain ; I told him I never would allow the Greek Cross to be added to the Crown of the Czars. Austria would unite with Russia against Turkey on condition of being allowed to retain the provinces contiguous to her frontier. France and England are the only powers interested in opposing their schemes. I always felt this, and always supported the Turks, though I hated them as barbarians."— Ap- pendix to Scott's Napoleon. Exeter assizes terminated on Monday even- ing, and, although there was a very heavy calendar of prisoner, none were left fyr execution. The courtesy of Mr. Justice Bayley liasbeen often admired: perhaps a happier compliment has seldom been delivered from the Bench than his Lordship ad- dressed in the form of a gentle rebuke, the other day, in the Court at the Northumberland Assizes, to Mr. Gray the barrister, son of the present Bishop of Bristol. Mr. G. was chatting rather loudly with some other Counsel, when Mr. Justice Bayley, who was summing up, ob- served :—" Mr. Gray, if ever you arrive where I hope you will some day, you will know the inconvenience of Coun- sal talking when you are summing up." The Parliamentary Commissioners have re- commended the consolidation of the English and Irish Pott Offices. L ist year the number of Irish vagrants, hay- makers, & c. who landed at Liverpool only, amounted to nearly eight thousand! A silver penny of Edward I. was found last week in the ruins of Reading Abbey: this curious coin is computed to be 470 years old. The extensive granite quarries at Haytor aro now in a state Of activity ; from the great demand for it, a large number of men are employed on the works, and many more hands are yet wanted— Exeter paper. The inquest respecting the circumstances at- tending the destruction of the Brunswick Theatre was continued yesterday. Mr. Finlay, having been sworn, said— There long existed in the minds of several persons besides myself an opinion that danger would attend the hanging of great weights to the roof. I said so repeatedly to the pro- prietors, and 1 produced examples where danger would follow. I said, suppose you were to get up the piece of Aladdin, in which many persons must be above, their weight, and the vibration of the floor under them, would, in all probability, bring down the roof. Looking at all the facts, I am of opinion that the weights suspended from the r » of produced the accident. I repeatedly told Mr. Maurice, and afterwards Mr. Carruthers, in the month of December, and was continually telling them, that " this roof will not do for our purpose, that it is a beautiful thing, but not fit for a theatre." To these inti- mations Mr. Maurice used to reply, " Oh, I suppose it is all right; but we shall see," as if to cut the conversation. In continuation, witness said, that the roof was per- fectly adapted for all the common purposes of a roof; that it was possible to have suspended the weights other- wise than from the roof; that so far as he was a judge the walls were competent for the purpose. I have had much knowledge of Theatres. I know that all the walls of the Brunswick Theatre were as thick as those of tile Coburg, and in parts thicker. ( The examination of the witness proceeded to show, that Mr. Whitwell had had nothing whatever to do with the erection of the tire place, the leaden cistern, the hanging of the flies and the weights from the roof, or thi other circumstances which, in the witness's opinion, led to the destruction of the Theatre.) I do not recollect a specific answer from Mr. Whitwell; but I remember Shaw saying one day in reply to me, " I know it is not right, and if I had had my own way, I would have had a wood roof." Finding myself an- noyed by the vibration of tiie floors, I complained to Shaw and to him I have said, " if you do not mind what you are about you will have this roof about your ears." To which he replied, " What am I to do? I cannot help it. I have spoken to Mr. Carruthers ( and my im. pression is, he also said he had spoken to Mr. Whitwell) about it. They say they have had advice about it, and that I must go on. My impression of danger was front tho very first moment I saw the roof, which I received from a conviction that it was not adapted for its purposiS knowing what weights it, as the roof of a theatre, would have to bear. EXECUTION.— George Wyeth, who was to have suffered on Wednesday with two other convicts, but who was respited for the purpose of investigating certain allegations contained in a petition to the King on his be- half, suffered the extreme punishment of the law this morning at Newgate. On Monday last Thomas Shaylor, for the robbery of his uncle on the highway, under circumstances of great barbarity, was executed at Oxford. DIED. l At Rome, on the 20th of February, Lady Charlotte Stopford, sister to the Duke of Buccleugh. Mr. H. BULL, for the benefit of his brother Farmers, assures them that he has had most extraordinary and decisive proofs amongst his Flock of the virtues of " CUFF'S FARMERS' FRIEND," it having saved for him ( he verily believes) more than 100 Lambs afflicted with. the Scour, losing only One that was not seen early enough; and that on Thursday morning last he found four Ewes on which Mortification was evidently approach- ing, when he gave a little of CUFF'S MEDICINE to two, leaving the other two without any, and the result was, that these laving the Medicine arc now doing well, whereas the Others died of Modification the san. e Even- ing; since which he has saved others similarly seized.

SUSTAINMENT OF FEMALE BEAUTY.— The female Nobility, and other Ladies of Rank and Fashion, who experisncing the efficacy, continue the patronage of ROWLAND'S KALYDOR and MACASSAR OIL, have not forgotten the influ « ice of these celebrated auxiliaries in Sustaining female beauty against the casualties of Time and Season, a distinguished preference having been alwavs given to these genuine articles. Extensive orders for fresh supply are daily received by ROWLAND. The KALYDOR of ROWLAND improves in all seasons the female complexion, securing the skin against all aitack whatsocvenof weather,-. imparting pure white elastic firm- ness and tie smoothness of velvet, and totally excluding cutaneous imperfection whencesoevcr originating. The MACASSAR OIL is equally available with respect to its appropiiate object, the growth and preservation of the human liar, and both these articles uniting their infal- libilities, ire universally acknowledged tn be unparalleled as conservitors of beauty in the annals of ancicui or mo- dern disco/ fry.

This aeomplishcu young nobleman, the eldest son and heir- apparent to the Karl of Malmesbury, and a lineal descendant also of the illustrious houses of Rutland and Shaftesbury, has been the peculiar object of his noble father's solicitude; and being hereditarily blest with great natural abilities, which have been assiduously cul- tivated under the most eminent tutors, his intellectual attainments give presage of his being a distinguished ornament to that branch of the legislature, of which he is one duy destined to be a member, In celebration of the joyous event of his Lordship's coming ol' age, cards of invitation were issued to several gentlemen of the neighbourhood and to thp Earl's tenan- try, tradesmen, & c. to partake of a sumptuous dinner, prqvided at the Hotel. At four o'clock 150 persons sat down to the festive board: Lord Fitz Harris honored the company with his presence, and presided; on his right sat his uncle, Bateman Dashwood, Esq.; and on his left, Rd. Webb, Esq. John Spicer, Esq. officiated as Vice- President, . On the removal of the oloth, the usual loyal toasts were drunk with the accustomed honours; Mr. Bateman Dashwood then rose to propose the health of the noble Lord whose natal ( lay they were assembled to celebrate, which was drunk with thundering plaudits, accompanied Willi a discharge of ordnance from the Castle Hill, and a peal from the Church bells. Hi; Lordship retutned thanks in it most eloquent and epergetic speech, replete with manly and liberal sen. timents, expressing his gratitude to the company for their acceptance of I113 invitation, qnd emphatically assuring the numerous tenantry present, that the tenour of his noble father's instructions to his agent was " Live, and let live." The healths of the Earl of Malmesbury, of his second son, the Hon. Edward Harris, ( now abroad in the naval service of his country), and of the other branches of the family, were drunk with acclamation. Several toasts of local Interest were also introduced, and the hilarity or the evuiuig was much heightened by the performance of seveial son^ s and glees, and the attendwice of a band of martial music, ., Too much cannot said in commendation of the ex cellent style ia which Mrs. Humby, served up the dinner. A brilliant display of fireworks augmented the gratifi- cation of tie assembled crowds in the streets; several hogsheads of strong beer were given to tbe populace, and all the poor cottiers in the vicinity of Heron Court, were regaled at their own hows, and received pecuniary presents. The oaeurrences of the day passed off without any accident, and the happy occasion which gave rise to them, will afford a pleasing rem » ni « jence for many years to come. The last this season of the Romsey Amateur Concerts, und « r the able direction of Mr. Frederick, took place at the town- hall un Thursday evening last, and was very respectably attended. Miss Frederick presided at the piano- forte with her usual ability, and the vocal and instrumental departments of the concert were very effec- tive ; several of the songs were encored, and the per- formance gave general satisfaction.

Parry Hodges, Fellow of New College, Oxford, was in- stituted by the Venerable the Arehdeac « n of Dorset to the Rectory of Tarrant Rawston, alias Antioch, in the county of Dorset, on the presentation of Sir John Wyld- bore Smith, Bart. On Monday Joseph Staines Cope, Esq., was elected and sworn into the office of a Capital Burgess of the ancient borough of Warcham, in tile room of the Rev. G. H. Hyde. The Royal Assent has been given to the Act for enabling Francis John Browne, Esq. of Frampton, to grunt the mansion- house at Forston, for the purposes of a Lunatic Asylum for the county of Dorset. The members of the Conock Hunt, anxious to evinoe their high respect for Mr. Amyatt, whose urba. nity and gentlemanly conduct have justly received their esteem ; whose pack, and hunting establishment, are ex- celled by none; and whose country, extending over a large portion of the Wiltshire downs, is for harriers unri- valled i— invited that gentleman arid Mr. Warriner ( who contributes to the support of the hunting establishment) to dine with them, at the Bear inn, Devices, on Thurs- day the 20th inst. Upwards of 40 gentlemen sat down te a most sumptuous dinner, provided by Mr. Parsons. Mr. Locke was unanimously requested to take tile chair, and Mr. Thos. Bucknall Estcoutt ably assisted him as Vice- President. Conviviality and gupd humour kept the com- pany together until midnight; and on the following morning the harriers throw off at Imber Furze, before a field of upwards of 30; and an excellent run of 3D mi- nutes put a close to hare hunting for the season. On Ff iday the 21st instant, the friends to Mr. Farquharson's fix hunt, sat down to a most sumptuous dinner, nrovided for them at the King's Arms, Dorches- ter, by Messrs. Oliver. The chair was taken by J. J. Farquharson, Esq.; and the vice- chair was filled by T. Groves, Esq. of Holnest. The evening presented an un- interrupted flow of conviviality, harmony, and good humour; and the party, which consisted of about 40, did » < H separate until a late hour. BLANDFORD.— At our fourth and last sub- scription concert for this season, Miss Hodgson made her second appearance, after her severe indisposition ; and on her entri into the orchestra was greeted with rounds of plaudits from a very numorous and elegant audience; and her performance in this evening's concert fully veri- fied the expectations of the company. Bayly's popular ballad of " I'd be a Butterfly," ( sung by particular de- sire), was raptuiously called for a second time, nor was she less successful in Madame Pasta's superb cavatina, " II soave bel contento." The style of her last song, " March with the red and the blue," was replete with excellence, and in power of tone, neatness of execution, pathos, Rhd perfect Intonation, we fearlessly assert it cannot be surpassed by the most experienced professor at present before the public. The audience were also highly delighted With Mr. A. Loder's songs and duetts with his pupil, and it is but justice to this gentleman to add, that . the rapid improvement in Miss Hodgson's tinging, reflects the higliest credit on him as a master. Some beautiful glees were also sung, and merited the encore they re- ceived. The overtures were led and sustained with great spirit, and an amateur gentleman delighted the company with some finelv executed airs on the key bugle. Such astonishing rapidity of execution and sweetness of tone had never before been heard on that instrument in Blandford. A reprieve has arrived at Dorchester, for Yeatman, convicted at the late assizes of horse stealing. Joy still remains for execution ; and no doubt is enter- tained but that he will undergo the fatal sentence. EXECUTION.— John Hattat, who was con- victed at our late assizes of stealing sixty- one sheep, the property of Mr. George Buddie of Bishops Cannings, was on Tuesday last, in pursuance of his sentence, exe- cuted in front of Fisherton Gaol. He fully acknow- ledged the justice of his sentence ; and owing to the at- tentions of the Rev, Mr. Hodgson, who visited lijrn, the unfortunate man met his awful fate in » state of perfect penitence and resignation.— We understand that an ap- plication to save his life was made to Mr. Justice Little, dale ( the Judge who tried him); hut that the learned Judge replied, that the crime of sheep- stealing had become so prevalent, and the case of Hattat was one of such mag- nitude and enormity, that he felt he should not be doing his duty if he did not allow the law to take its course,— It is earnestly to be hoped that this man's fate with that of others who have suffered death for sheep- stealing during the present circuits, will operate as a check to the commission of a crime so injurious to society. A condemned sermon was preached in the Chapel of Fisherton Gaol, on the Sunday preceding Hattat's execution, by the Rev. Mr. Hodgson, who, in a most pathetic and impressive manner called that pri, soner's attention to a consideration of the awful situation in which he stood. An extract from the Bev. Clergy- man's immediate address to him upon this interesting occasion will be found in the preceding page of this paper. BIRTH.— On the 25th init, in Green- street.

By JOHN GORTON. " This is a work of very uncommon merit indeed, in the department to which it belongs. Instead of a mere compilation, as such publications generally are, we have here a production of original, and often very masterly talent. The whole is conceivcd in a spirit ef moderation and good sense, exactly such as we like to see sustaining tlie equanimity and impartiality of historic narrative. Upon the whole, we do not know any work of the same compass which is entitled to compete with that before us, as a useful ar. d intelligent compendium of biography."— Edinburgh Star. *' Among the many cheap and useful publ'c itions now issuing from the press, we have scarcely seen one which unites so many excellencies as this Biographical Dic- tionary. It exhihitsa fine specimen of typography, and has a merit which belongs to very few low- priced works. Th'e Editor, who is evidently a person of learnirg end talent, has taken manv articles from books not in general circulation, translated or abridged others from foreign dictionaries or journals ; and, what is still better, he has infused into the whole a degree of taste and spirit which we should look for in vain in some biographical compila- tions of much greater cost and pretensions."— Scotsman.
