Henry de Laroche- Jaquelin set out yesterday afternoon, at two o'clock, for St. Petersburgh, with despatches f r om the French Government, i t is thought that the young Peer will make the campaign with the Russians against the Turks as a volunteer. " Letters from Odessa, of March 6, say that the Emperor Nicholas has made a present of a million of rubles o General Paskewitsch, as a proof of his satisfaction with his services in the war against Persia, which have led to the conclusion of peace. " SMYRNA, Feb. 20.— A contagious disease has broken out in the port of Scio, and has weakened the garrison to such a degree, that unless it speedily receives considerable reinforcements, it will not be able to hold out any longer. The Pacha has been to Chesme, to hasten the departure of the reinforcements. " BARCELONA, March 25.— The prolonged delay of his Majesty in this city, though the climate is by no means favourable to his health, proves sufficiently the uneasiness of the government as to the tranquility remaining permanent, which lie has established in this province. It is how notorious that the disaffected of the Apostolic faction take no pains in dissembling their hopes. In the mountain villages, certain pious ministers have pronounced from the pulpit discourses full of the spirit of revolt, and it is evident that the factious are only waiting for the departure of the troops now in Catalonia in order to resume arms. The Government has ordered that all the inhabitant tif the villages be disarmed; but this measure has been so badly executed, that every day new depots lit' arms are discovered, which had escaped those who blade the fust search. " CORFU, Feb. 28.— General Guilleminot is still her-, and has taken a house for three months. It is repoited that not only the return of the English and French Ambassadors is expected, but also the arrival of Envoys ffttra t i e Porte and Austria. " V I E N N A , March 24.— The Turkish garrison of Braclow has lately been reinforced with 1,000 chosen troops, disciplined in the European manner. A great quantity of amanition and provisions ha3 been conveyed into it. " Opinions are remarkably divided on the result of the Hrst cannon shot that shall be fired on the Pruth; dome persons think, that Austria, in concert with France mid England, will join the Turks, to prevent the dismemberment of the Ottoman empire. Others, on tile contrary, say, that otfr Cabinet remains neutral, taking, however, under its protection, Servia, Bosnio, and part of Wallachia. Time must soon refute or confirm such con lectures, and it is believed that the month of May will be rendered remarkable by events of great importance." T h e a t t e n t i o n Of t h e F r e n c h G o v e r n m e n t has been turned to the subject of certain Clubs or meetings which have been held in the Champs Elysées on the subject of electing Deputies; an article in the Moniteur shows the electors the illegality of their proceedings, and forbids their repetition.

France, however, requires the payment of 8it millions of francs ( above three millions and a half sterling) which the occupation of Spain has cost her— and she will keep a Corps of Observation upon the Spanish frontiers. Another account states, that the evacuation will be delayed, in order to a y . ' t a i n the turn which affairs may take in Portugal.

CORFU, Feb. 2 3 . — A c c o r d i n g to l e t t e r s f r om Zante, Ibrahim Pacha intends to found a Greek colony in Egypt, to which he will give the name of New Morea.

S M Y R N A , Feb. 18— Piracy has considerably diminished. Most of the Greek armed vessels have returned into port, either to repair or to winter, alarmed by the threats of the admirals. BARCELONA, March 2 2 , — A n a v a l a r m a m e nt is now going forward here; and though the destination of the vessels is not distinctly known, people likely to be well informed think they are to accompany the- transports which are about to sail with troops for t h i Havannah. MA D R I D , March 26.— Their Majesties will leave Barcelona on the 8th or 9th of next month for Saragossa, and, after having paid their devotion to our Lady of Pilar, and collected some money from the Canons, they will continue their journey to the capital, through Valencia, so that we may expect them here at t h e end of next month. According to well- informed persons it appears that the Infant Don Miguel has made an application to our Monarch for some effectual assistance, in order to put down tlii Portuguese Constitutional faction, and his Highness wishes that not only a division of 4,000 Spanish troops should be sent to Lisbon, to protect his Royal person against the contemplated attacks and conspiracies of his adversaries ; but that an equal force should be cantoned on the frontiers of Estremadura. This subject has been discussed twice in the Council of State at Madrid, and tile King's Camarilla at Barcelona; and, although the majority of the former, composed of Apostolicals, voted in favour of Don Miguel's application, the Ministers disapproved of the resolution. It is, therefore, believed that lio troops will be sent to Portugal, but that every indirect assistance will be afforded Don Miguel, in order to secure u triumph over his adversaries. At the beginning of this month, according to orders received from the new French Ministry, the French garrison at Cadiz was prcpafing to leave that fortress, and Teturn to France. On our Government hearing that the English troops were to prolong their stay in Portugal, two of the Spanish regiments, which were destined to garrison Cadiz, were ordered to march to Badajoz, while a counter order was sent to the French General Gudin, to suspend the preparations for the evacuation of that place. Now it is said that Charles X. has authorised our Government to keep the French troops in Spain as long as it may be judged necessary, and has requested our Monarch to lend every assistance to the young Prince of Portugal. The dissatisfaction among every class of the people here is very great, and misery frightful. Saturday next is the day which all accounts have fixed for the Russian army to put in motion. BRUSSELS, April 2 . — T h e a c c o u n t s from Vienna say that it is observed that Prince Metternich, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, is extremely engaged, and that it is with the English Ambassador that he has the most frequent conferences. This circumstance has given rise to a belief that England and Austria will make a powerful opposition to. the projects of Russia. At Vienna, France and Prussia are considered as firmly attached to Russia in the case of war in the East. Considerable fermentation prevails in Servia, of which province, it is said, Austria will take possession, if the Russians pass the Pruth. Extract of a letter from Smyrna, dated Feb. 18, 1828:—" The accounts from Constantinople continue to be very gloomy ; the persecution of the Catholic Armenians is continued, and it is reported that an order had been issued for all Greeks to leave the capital; they are about 00,000 in number. If this is true, business will of course entirely cease thefe, as the Greeks and Armenians are the commercial part of the community. The Europeans in Smyrna are more tranquil— we hear no more Of preparations for departure; people flatter thcmselvss that the new Ministers in France and England will alter the measures pursued by their predecessors, and rather join the Turks against Russia, than further oppress the former." . The Marquis and Marchioness de Loule ( sister to Don Miguel), whose presence in London was known but to a few persons, arrived in town last Thursday week. They travelled in the strictest incognito. From Falmouth they engaged the whole of one uf the common stages, and thus avoided the expense of posting. There were three female attendants and a homme d'affairs Only of their suite. Such was the secrecy observed, that the coach proprietors, and the English female attendant as interpreter, knew not who the partv really were, until their arrival in London, when it accidentally transpired. It appears that the Marquis and Marchioness, not finding their income adequate to meet the expenses of a London lite, have determined upon quitting the capital of Britain for Caen in Normandy. The history of the Marchioness is not generally known. At the early age of seventeen, she was passionately in love with her present husband: her situation, though unmarried, became but too evident to the Court, and the fatal secret of her shame at length reached the ears of tile old Queen. The conduct of the mother was prompt and decisive: the Marquis was sent for, and a marriage instantly celebrated: in eight days after, the Marchioness was a mother. As soon as the young lady was sufficiently recovered, her immediate departure from Portugal was determined on ; and the old Queen supplied her daughter with BOOO/., with which the young couple tdreading, but more particularly the husband, the unrestrained license of Don Miguel, who was then on f. is way to Portugal) made their way to this country. T h e a n n i v e r s a r y m e e t i n g of t h e S o c i e t y i n - stituted at Bath, auxiliary to the " Irish Society, formed in Dublin in 1818, for promoting the Education of the Native Irish through the medium ' of their own Language," was held on Wednesday last at the Guildhall. The meeting was attended by a very numerous and most respectable assemblage of persons, and the chair was filled by the Lord Bishop of the diocese. The collection at the dcors amounted to 112/. Is. 5\ d Other donations and subscriptions, 13/. 13s. D U B L I N , April 5.— At the Catholic Association this day, was read an answer of Mr. Hume to a letter which had been addressed to him some weeks ago, in which the Hon. Gentleman had been requested to become a member of the Corn Exchange Parliament. It may be recollcted that some tune since Mr. Hume, in his place in the House of Commons, declared that " tie would feel proud to be a member of the Catholic Association." On this hint the Association addressed a long letter to the Hon. Gentleman, enclosing a card of admission, and requesting that he would allow his name to be enrolled amongst those who meet weekly for the reception of moneys collected for " all purposes not prohibited by law." Upon the occasion when the Association directed this offer to the Member for Montrose, it was suggested by Mr. Lawless, that it might be as wellte ascertain whether Mr. Hume would feel disposed to accept the proffered honour, and that this might be done by addressing him a private communication in the first instance. By this means, Mr. Lawless observed, they would spare both Mr. Hume and themselves the awkwardness of a refusal. Mr. Lawless, however, was unattended to. The event has proved the value of his advice; Mr. Hume has declined the honour of being made, a member of the Catholic Association, assigning as his reason, that, by indentifying himself with the body, he should weaken his power of serving them in his capacity of an independent Member of the Legislature. A m o r e s t r i k i n g illustration of t h e truth of Sir Francis Burdett's opinions on high prices cannot be adduced than the following, which has this week occurred at the quarterly meeting of the Staffordshire ironmasters, held at Wolverhampton, where the contracted state of the currency was freely discussed, and a deqiued opinion expressed on the impolicy of withdrawing country bank one- pound notes from circulation ; and the resolu? tions entered into, state the inconvenience that trade has already experienced from the partial disappearance of that description of the circulating medium, and the still greater difficulty that must arise when the prohibitory Act comes next year into full operation. In our humble opinion, Ministers are now beginning at the wrong end in agitating the corn question ; that of the currency ought most undoubtedly to have preceded it. It cannot, however, much longer remain quiet, as Sir Francis Burdett has a motion to make upon it, soon after the recess. — Brighton Journal. A curious phenomenon has lately astonished, and not a little alarmed, the villagers of Norton, in this county. In a field in the immediate vicinity of that place, an aperture in the ground has been discovered, from which a hissing noise issues, louder, as we are informed, than can be imitated by the human voice. It has been examined with some attention by several gentlemen, who have had the earth removed, by digging to a considerable dopth around the hole, with a view to ascertain the cause, but without effect. Some of the less enlightened believe the whispers which proceed from the aperture to be hints of an approaching earthquake, while others fancy they can hear, through tile fissure, the sound of hammering in the lower regions, and therefore imagine his Infernal Majesty is preparing his armour for a terrestrial campaign. Certain it is that the noise is daily and hourly heard, though the cause has not yet been discovered. We suppose it to be occasioned by a rush of some description of gas, with which the earth, in that particular situation, had been overcharged; and, if so, its escape is more likely to prevent, than portend, an earthquake.— Durham Advertiser. GLOUCESTER ASSIZES.— G r i f f i t h v. Gardner and Bellchambers— This was an action brought to recover a compensatien in damages for a libel concerning the plaintiff, published in the Gloucester and Cheltenham Herald, of which the defendants were proprietors. The plaintiff was Mr. Samuel Young Griffith, editor of the Cheltenham Chronicle, which he had conducted for many years with credit and respectability. Mr. Gardner was an attorney residing at Cheltenham, who had become a proprietor of the Herald, and Mr. Bellchambers, who had been the author of the libels, and the conductor of the paper, became a bankrupt a short time ago, had gone to gaol, and was now in prison. Mr. Gardner feeling great sorrow and regret that he had been instrumental in the publication of these libels had now come forward, and signed a public apology, which would be read to the Jury, after which he was willing to submit to a verdict to be taken against him for 1,000/. damages. As to Bellchambers, his praise or his censure could in no way affect Mr. Griffith, for even an apology from iiim would be considered a contamination.— The apology having been read, Mr. Justice Park said, this does Mr. Gardiner considerable credit; the apology is very ample, Gentlemen, and the defendant ( Mr. Gardner) submits to your verdict for 1,000/. damages, and you will have to find a verdict for the other defendant Bellchambers. A report of a case at the Denbighshire assizes exemplifies very happily the peculiarities of English jurisprudence. Owen Owens was indicted, under the statute of 7 and 8 Geo. IV., for having feloniously killed a mare, by pouring a quantity of nitrous acid into one ear and eye. There were two other counts, charging a wounding and maiming. The Judge directed an acquittal on the two counts for killing and wounding, as the surgeon said the injury caused an ulcer and not a wound— Remained the maiming, and the question is, whether pouring aqua- fortis into the ear of a horse, and thereby destroying it, constitutes maiming. The Jury found the prisoner guilty of the maiming, and the Judge said he should reserve the case for the opinion of { lie twelve f u d g e s . At the Warwick Assizes, in the course of one day, four out of five prisoners were acquitted, though there were no doubts of their guilt. In one instance a man was indicted for stealing four live fowls in the county of Warwick. The fowls were first stolen in the county of Stafford, but the prisoner was taken, with the fowls in his possession, in the county of Warwick j as the law holds that a fresh felony is committed in every county into which stolen property has been carried, the man was properly tried at the Warwick assizes. The fowls, however, when found upon the prisoner, were dead, therefore Mr. Justice Holroyd held that he could not be found guilty of stealing live fowls in Warwickshire. MURDER.— Mr. Thomas H o l l i e r , of Burtonupon- Trent, was murdered last week. The body of the deceased was found by a man and his son who were going to work, in rather a lonely lane in the parish of Burtonupon- Trent, called Lichfield- lane, and used as a back way into the town from Derby and Hunninglow roads. Some suspicion of the perpetration of the murder rested upon two young men, with whom the deceased, in the course of the evening, had a quarrel. B I T I N G OFF A NOSE— At the York Assizes an action was brought by " Dawson v. Hanson," to recover a compensation in damages for a brutal assault. It was proved that the plaintiff and defendant met at a public- house, where they both drank freely, and that upon a quarrel taking place, the defendant ( who was much the stronger man of the two) attacked the plaintiff in a most barbarous manner, and actually bit off his nose. The plaintiff appeared in Court by the side of his Counsel, and his face exhibited a nose which appeared to have been considerably curtailed of its fair proportions The Jury , found a verdict for the plaintiff— Damages 260/. Government has ordered the Howe, 120 gun ship of the line, and one of the largest vessels in the service, now lying at Chatham, to be immediately prepared for sea, and she will be ready to sail, if necessary, in a few days. The destination is the Morea, so that our naval force is certainly to be augmented in that quarter.

Dobell, who was younger, much heavier, and stronger, than his adversary, won the battle in 22 rounds, and at its finish, he told Bailey he would give him 5/. and a good dinner.— Both men displayed great bravery during the fight. VACCINATION.— Dr. Gregory, in a letter to the Editor of the Medical Gazette, says:—" I consider that one in fifty expresses, as nearly as our present knowledge authorises, the proportion of vaccinated who subsequently take small- pox in a well- marked cognizable form. — Of 10,' i cases of small- pox, after undoubted vaccination, which fell under my care last year, I lost but one— a man vaccinated in Kent; and his death is at'.- ibutable to the concurrence of small- pox of a severer kind than usual, with a diseased condition of the lungs, which would alon* have occasioned his death, in all human probabilsty, in less than six months." WOOL.— A trifling change of soil or h e r b a ge has an immediate effect on the growth of wool: a thin chalky land, covered with fine- textured turf, interspersed with wild thyme, small wild clover, and eye- bright, produces the finest wool. It is a well- known fact,, that wool always becomes coarse, tiiough increased in height, from sheep being fed on strong land: hence it is, that a Southdown ewe produces a fleece full a third heavier, though much coarser, the year she is fattened, than any one that preceded it. Encroachment of the Sea.— The substratum on the shore at Liverpool has lately been sunk through in several places, and the clearest evidence has appeared of ploughed fields, forests, bogs, & c. beneath the surface of the water; a grave- yard, if not a church- yard; has also been discovered about 160 or 200 yards below the flow of the tide. T h e e n c r o a c h m e n t s of t h e s e a b e t w e e n P a g - ham and Little Hampton, Sussex, are appalling: at Aldwick, great masses of ground have disappeared, and feuces are swept away, which were last autumn deemed out of reach of the tide.

The female swore that in his intercourse with her, his Grace assumed the name of " Mr. Smith," and that it was by accident she became acquainted with his real name nnd rank. The order having been made upon the noble Duke, his Grace paid 120/. to the parish officers as a compromise, and so the affair terminated. F A T A L EFFECTS OF D E S P A I R . — M i s s A nn Hamerton, a milliner and dress- maker of Cheltenham, was lately charged with robbing Ann Davis, a lodger residing in her house. She asserted her innocence, and made a countercharge against Ann Davis for having falsely accused her, for whicli the latter was committed to a house of correction. Subsequent information, however, induced the police to apprehend Miss Hamerton again. She was tried on Tuesday at Gloucester assizes for the robbery, found guilty, and sentenced to seven years transportation During the trial she strongly protested her innocence; and after judgment was pronounced, she was taken to the County Gaol, where she hung herself during the night. The deceased was an interesting young woman, of considerable beauty, & respectably connected. On Sunday last two men, walking in the neighbourhood of Wigan, seeing a rat leap into a pond,' sent a dog after it, which dived; but, instead of bringing up the rat, it brought up a fine eel, upwards of twtf pounds weight. There was lately found in a fish- pond at Abingdon, belonging to Mr. Tomkins, a tea- canister full of guineas. Fifteen years ago the coachman to Mr. Tomkins' father robbed him of 800 guineas, for which he was committed to gaol, but escaped and has never since been heard of. This is supposed to be part of t i e money. A few days ago the fossil rib of a whale was discovered in the cliff, near Kemp Town, Brighton. On the earth and stone being cleared from it, it was exposed to view in an uninjured state, but such was the fragile state of the specimen, that, upon attempting to remove it, the whole mass fell to pieces. The length of the bone was about 12 f e e t ; it was upwards of 30 inches in circumference at the largest extremity, and when perfect it must have exceeded 20 feet in length. E X P A N S I V E FORCE o f S T E A M . — A c i r c u m - stance lately occurred, rather of a singular nature, which strongly illustrates the powerful effects of steam. A strong stone bottle, half filled with water, and tightly corked, was placed by a servant girl in an oven, and forgotten. The water of course began to be converted into steam ( by the heat of the oven), which burst the bottle, and was so expansive as to drive the oven door, which was of cast iron, from its hinges, against the kitchen wall, with such violence, that it was broken into several pieces. The oven itself, though of considerable weight, was carried from its seat, blew out both the kitchen windows, r. nd tore down the fire- place. Prevention of Poison by Oxalic Acid.— In the event of a person having swallowed oxalic acid, by immediately taking a mixture of whiting or chalk, and water, the danger will be in a great measure prevented. The oxalate of lime maybe afterwards expelled from the stomach either by an emetic, or by a brisk cathartic, which will be much preferable, from producing less irritation on the coats of the stomach. At Reading ( Berks) sessions, last week, the Magistrates refused the customary expenses to the Overseers for vestry dinners— thus putting a veto upon parish gormandizing! J a m e s G o l d i n g a n d M i c h a e l F a i r , n o t e d resurrectionists, were fully committed on Saturday, for trial, charged with stealing two bodies from Hanworth and Farnham churchyards. At Clonmel assizes Patrick Lacy and John Walsh were convicted and executed for having, on the 1st of October, 1827, murdered Daniel Mara; Patrick Lacy shooting him in the left side of the body, and John Walsh aiding and assisting in the murder. At York assizes, Mr. Horsington, late land agent to Colonel Beaumont, obtained a verdict with 1700/. damages against the Colonel and his lady, for defamatory words spoken by Mrs. Beaumont of and respecting the plaintiff, highly injurious to his reputation, and also charging him with frauds 111 money transactions. A m a n of the n a m e of W i l l i a m s was l a t e ly indicted at Hereford for stealing a game cock, value 10s. The bill was thrown out by the Grand Jury, and a claim made on the county for 25/. expences! On S a t u r d a y e v e n i n g t h e c a r r i a g e of M r. Jutice Burrough, who was 011 his way to town from Kingston, was robbed between the Bald- faced Stag and the Plough inn, of a trunk. It appears from Mr. Buchanan's treatise on Emigration, that about 23,000 emigrants went out to our American Provinces last year; and of that number 1( 1,802 landed in Quebec. By the accounts from Ireland, it is understood that Emigration this year will be equal, if not greater.— Every possible facility should and, no doubt, will be provided, and lands prepared for the emigrants ; so that on their arrival at Quebec, they may find some authorised responsible officer to apply to. The accounts from the Continent say, that all the Foreign Funds have improved— particularly Russian, which have got up nearly one per cent. The Greeks are said to have signified their acceptance of the Armistice. Tripolizza has been burnt by the Egyptian trot p . An article from Smyrna, of the 21st February, has brought intelligence that the Porte has intimated its readiness to accede to the conditions of the Treaty of the tith July, and has sent the old Capitan Pacha, who is well known to our Admirals, to enter into a negotiation with them. The total value of all the naval stores in Chatham dock- yard has been lately computed at upwards of one million— The valuation was matle for the information of the Finance Committee— Maidstone Journal.

B A C H E L O R S ' BALL.— On Monday night the Bachelors gave their annual Ball at the Assembly- rooms, Bath, to which were invited about 400 persons of rank and fashion. The banquet was under the management of Mr. Reilly. At Taunton Assizes, the cavalcade of the High Sheriff for the county ( John Hugh Smyth Pigott, Esq.) excited unusual attention, from the circumstance of the javelin men appearing in an entirely new and different uniform from that hitherto worn 011 such occasions. In lieu of tile three- cornered hats, chapeaux bras were assumed, with large " bows of light blue riband affixed to the side, long blue coats, with gilt buttons, red waistcoats, drab breeches, and military boots. The javelins were ornamented with hatchet crosses, on which were displayed the Sheriff's initials, with the year of Sheriffalty, in polished steel. The whole of the javelin men were respectable tenants of the Sheriff, anil were mounted on their own steeds. Mr. Pigott's elegant equipage, with its four beautiful greys, was no less aUracti". 1 fc than the cavalcade which preceded it. W A T E R F O R D , April 4.— The Pomona, of London, from Portsmouth, has been seized here by the Collector of Customs, having 1,600 half bales of tobacco concealed.

And we find in each case a deodand of 40s." Self- moving Carriage.— A young m a n , residing at Cattistock, near Dorchester, possessed of talent " C no common order, has completed a carriage of peculiar construction, to be propelled by tbe individual driving, or rather riding, and it is said that the effect is produced with great ease, and without the aid of treadles. A wall is now being built, at tbe entrance of the town of Exmouth, entirely of beautiful black marble, which is procured frorti a quarry contiguous to Torbay, and delivered at Exmouth Harbour at two shillings and four pence per ton. S L A N D E R . — A t Monmouth assizes, a Miss Day, who had no fortune but her character, brought an action against a rich Jew, named Isaacs, for Slander. The parties were next door neighbours, at Abergavenny, and the Jew told a young man, named Palmer, to whom the plaintiff was about to be married, that he might as well marry the commonest girl in the street, and that she had had two children by different men. Palmer, in consequence, refused to fulfil his engagement, with Miss Day, unless she brought the present action against Isaacs, and fully established the falsehood of the imputation. The defendant acknowledged, through his counsel, that there was no ground for what he had said, and the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff— Damages, 150/. Upwards of forty convicts have been appropriated in Chatham dock- yard to do the work formerly done by one team of horses— Maidstone Journal. C O R N - E X C H A N G E , April 9.— The Oat trade has again fallen into its former languor, owing to the magnitude of the supply ( 28,700 qrs,) since our last return, and scarcely a sale could be effected this morning, although offered at lower prices. Wheat and Barley fully support our last quotation, the supply of each being rather small. Beans and Peas remain the same, but very little done in either.

The genuine may be distinguished from the counterfeits by attending to the following particulars. The Counterfeits have a printed label on the top of the pot, the Genuine is not printed but engraved oil the pot, and burnt in like all other delph or china ware when the pot is made. It is a Bear with the words ' Atkinson's Bears' Grease for the Hair.'

London, FRIDAY, APRIL 11. We understand that accounts have been received at the Admiralty, that the troops from Portugal arrived at Portsmouth tarly this morning, in three lineof- battle ships. The Cavalry, & c. are said to be coming in transports.— Cornier. Mr. Peel, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, iind several of the Cabinet Ministers and their Ladies dined yesterday with the Duke of Wellington at his seat Stratfieldsaye. It is understood that the Army, Navy, and Ordnance Estimates have already been investigated by the Finance Committee, and are to be finally considered in the House of Commons during the present Session, with a view to the necessary votes for the service of the year. The Duke of Wellington is to be examined by the Finance Committee relative to the ordnance works going on in Canada. The Duke of Sussex took the chair yesterday at the anniversary dinner of the friends and supporters of the Jewish Hospital at Mile End, at which the subcriptions amounted to upwards of 450£. His Royal Highness the Lord High Admiral lias determined, in order to facilitate business, that all vessels and departments connected with the naval affairs bf the realm shall, in future, be placed under his immediate control. It is said that Miss Hart, daughter of the Irish Chancellor, will shortly be led to the hymeneal altar bv Lord Forbes, Comptroller of the Household to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant, and eldest son of the Karl of Granard. The private letters from P a r i s this morningstate that the French Packet from Vera Cruz had arrived at Bordeaux ; sailed on the 18th February. The country was tranquil, and commerce began to revive. A Jamaica paper of the 10th of February, mentions the arrival of his Majesty's ship Pincher, in five davs, from Carthagena. There was nothing new in Colombia. A steam- boat Company for the Jamaica coasting trade had been brouirht forward under the sane. • inn of his Excellency the Governor, and the English Admiral on the Jamaica siation. Yesterday was settling day in the English Money Market, and every thing went off smoothly. The fluctuations during the month have amounted to nearly four per cent. The approaching election of President in the United States occasions much speculation in that country, t h e candidates are Mr. J. Q. Adams, the present President, and General Jackson— the latter being by far the more popular. The Emperor Nicholas was expected, in his army, about the 20th instant. Now that war between Russia and Turkey is Certain, the Austrian Funds are declining. The Swedish squadron, under the command of Rear- Admiral Nordneiskild, destined to act against the Algerines, is expected at Spithead in a fortnight. It ifi confidently reported in the higher and political cities in Paris, that the principal Allied Powers Have transmitted express instructions to their respective Ambassadors in Lisbon, to take do » / n- their national coats of arms from the fronts of their houses, and consider their furictidr. s at an ehd, in case the Infant Don Miguel, Regent of Portugal, should declare himself Sovereign, in conformity with the views of his mother. The French papers of Tuesday contain a letter from Zante of the 16th of February, describing all • interviSiV which took place on the 1st of that month between Sir Frederick Adam, the Lord High Commissioner of the Ionian Islands, and Ibrahim Pacha. The subject of theit conference had not transpired, though, from the critical pirsture of affairs, it no doubt related to arrangements of great consequence. The Gazette de Franee dated yesierday arrived last night bv express. The only intelligence which it contains is an article from Odessa, stating that many of the Armenians exiled by the Porte had taken refuge at that place, where they had met with great kindness, whilst their presence increased the indignation and hostility of the people against the Turks. Ad vice J have been received from Alexandria ( Egypt) to the 24th of February. The English residents were rather alarmed at the determined manner in which the Pacha sent reinforcements to the Morea, and also at tiie frequent intercourse by expresses with Constantinople. The different European Courts have sent to their Ambassadors at Lisbon, vigorous instructions and remonstrances, which have been communicated to Don Miguel. Spain has taken the advice of the French Government, which recommended her to adont a cautious and rcsJrved policy towards Portugal; such a policy as might ensure her the approbation of every European Government. Between England and France the most perfect understanding exists upon the subject of Portugal ,\ nd we have reason to believe that measures have been adopted for the complete evacuation of Spain by the French tooops— Courier. Mercantile letters have been received from Malta of the 18th Match, their contents are unimportant; also from Constantinople to the 3d of March. The warlike preparations were proceeding with great activity. It is said in an article from Vienna, that England and Austria are in an understanding to protect Turkey, and that France and Prussia go with Russia. BUCHAREST, March 17.— Accounts from Constantinople, of 4th March, bring us no news of importance. On the Russian frontier every tiling is quiet, but letters from Jassy say, that the Emperor Nicholas was expected in his army on the 11th ( 20th) of April. SMYRNA, Feb. 21.— A report is current here, that the Divan will accede to the Treaty of London. It is said that the intelligent old Captain Pacha, who is p rsonally known to the Admirals of the three Allied Powers, will govhimself to the Mediterranean to negotiate with them. i Accounts from Jamaica, of the 19th of February, state that the sugar crop is above an average one. The weather was line. BRUNSWICK T H E A T R E .— Adjourned Inquest at the Court- House, Wellclose- square.— After a recess of nearly a fortnight, the proceedings in this melancholy case were resumed on Wednesday. The principal business that occurred was the examination of Mr. Nash and Mr. Smirke, who stated that they had received a Communication from the Secretary of State for tlie Home Department, in consequence of which they surveyed the rnins and walls, and beams Of the late theatre in Wells- street. Their Report was to the following effect:—" After a ' ca inspection of the ruins of the late Brunswick Theatre, and of the drawings of its construction submitted to Xis, and also having read the various depositions made ( concerning it. we are of opinion, that the principle oil which the roof was constructed was unsafe, injudicious, ami improper for a theatre; that the walls were not in a condition to support the weight which it was necessary to idvirge upon them ; that many portions of the floor of the different tiers of boxes, and of the gallery, and the manner In which it was supported, was weak and improperly executwi. It is, however, impossible for us to point out which of those causes it was which occasioned the degUmxion of the theatre ; but, from the account given to us by several of the depositions, describing the use that was made of the roof, and the change that v i s observable in the form of different parts of it, several days before the fall took place, we are of opinion that the roof gave way first, and, by its fall, destroyed the weaker parts of the theatre." The Brunswick Theatre Inquest was adjourned yesterday to three o'clock this afternoon, when the Jury are to nicet for the consideration of their verdict. PUBLIC SLAUGHTER H O U S E S . — A numerous meeting of butchers was held yesterday afternoon at the Freemasons' Tavern, to consider of the Report of a Committee appointed at a former meeting of the trade, on the subject of the proposed erection of public slaughterhouses, in the vicinity of the metropolis. Mr. Giblett, of Bond- street, took the chair, and the report was read. A series of resolutions were then proposed, having for their import— first, a declaration that the enlargement of Smithfield- market was absolutely necessary, for the prevention of nuisances; and. the next, that the present market- day should he changed from Friday to Thursday, which would have the effect of equalising the supply at the two markets in the week, tod he of great advantage to the graziers. The resolutions were unanimously agreed to; lifter which the meeting adjourned. To the Printers of the Salisbury and Winchester Journal. PYTHOUSE, April 4, li! 2ii. SIRS, Inclosed you have a comparative Scale of Duties, and a column shewing the prices left ( o the importer when he shall have paid the duties. These tables, I think, will shew the comparative effect of the Corn Law of 1027* which has been in temporary operation for the purpose of the admission of bonded corn into the markets, and the law now proposed by the Government. Trusting that these tables may assist in explaining to some of your numerous readers the probable effect of the now proposal Complicated scale of duties, which, though professing to be more favourable to the British corn grower, is, in fact, much more favourable to the importer than the scale of last year, I shall feel much obliged by your inserting them in your next Journal.

By the first of these extracts from the two Scales, it appears that provided the price shall fluctuate between 52 » . and 58s. per quarter, by which the medium price will be 55s. the importer of Wheat will obtain three shillings the quarter more by the proposed law of 18211, than by the law of 1827, which has been in temporary operation. As it has been proved by the experience of the last year, that Wheat can be imported, and of the best quality, at or under 22s. per quarter, all expences included, and when we observe that both by the law of 1827, and the proposed law of 1828, 29s. id. per quarter is left to the importer after paying the duty when Wheat shall be at 58s. per quarter; we must not believe that the price of 58s. per quarter can be of long continuance, even should it reach that point. By the second of these extracts, which takes a range from 52s. to Ii4s. per quarter, the average of price left to the importer by the 2 scales is the same. The result then seems to be, that provided 55s. shall be taken as a medium price, the British corn grower will have a higher protection by the amount of 3s. per quarter, under tho law of 1827, than the proposed law of 1828 ; and as the importation will commence at 56s. per quarter by the law of 1827, and 55s. per quarter by the proposed law of 1828, when the price left to the importer by both scales will be the same, viz. 23s. 4d. it is very improbable that the price should ever exceed these points, under the operation of either law. The certain effect of the adoption of cither the law of 1827 or the proposed law of 1828, must be the habitual importation of a very large quantity of wheat. T H E N E W CORN L A W , — T h e p r i n c i p a l d i s - cussion of the proposed measure is expected to take place on the bringing up of the report on the 15th of April, and when Mr. Hume and Mr. Whitmore have both signified tlieir intention of proposing counter resolutions to those of Ministers. Mr. Hume proposes a decreasing scale of duty of 15s. from July 1828 to July 1829; 14s. from 1829 to 1830; an annual reduction of Is. till 1834, when the duty on wheat imported shall remain permanently fixed at 10s. Mr. Whitmore begins his scale at 50s. and proposes a duty of 20s. to bo decreased 2s. for every shilling when above 50s.; and to be increased 2s, for every shilling under Site. Whenever the price shall btel at or above 70s. a quarter, then the duty to be Is. At a meeting of the Central Agricultural Committee held on the 2d inst. at Brown's Hotel, Palace Yard, Westminster, the following resolution was adopted in reference to the Corn Bill now proposed by Ministers: " That this Committee arc of opinion, that although their sentiments remained unchanged as to the superiority of the present Prohibitory Law, in preference to every other plan that has been proposed, yet, considering the strength of the present Ministry, their support of the Propositions now submitted to the Legislature, as well as the countenance apparently afforded them by many of the sincere friends of Agriculture in both Houses of Parliament, the Committee cannot close their eyes to the probability of the endeavours which may be made to retain the present law proving ineffectual: and, therefore, consider that exertions should be used to endeavour to improve the plan now proposed, by urging the nesessity of raising the Scale of Duties, particularly as regards Wheat, when under 60s. per quarter, and Spring Corn ; rendering the mode of taking the averages less objectionable ; and fixing the duties at the time of importation," BEVERAGE OF THE POOR.— At a meeting of Owners and Occupiers of Land, held at the York Hotel, Bridge- street, Blackfriars, on the 30th of March, it was unanimously resolved, that as Beer is nearly es necessary to the sustenance of an English labourer as Bread, every practicable means should be used to enable thtm to procure a regular supply of their most natural and wholesale beverage, to support them in their laborious occupations. — That countless numbers of hard- working men, from their inability to procure sufficient Beer, have seriously injured their health and strength by drinking cold water, when heated by labour, and many have even lost the'. r lives— That the excessive high duty on Malt, generp ily prevents masters from being able to give Beer to their labourers, or labourers to brew for themselves.— That this high duty on Malt causes much Barley to be consumed by cattle, which would otherwins be malted and consumed in Beer; for while five bushels of It, when ursed for fattening cattle, will only produce from 30 to 40 l.' os. of Meat, the same quantity would brew three barrels of good mild Beer, and Consequently supply a labouring man with upwards of a quart per day, for a year, of that wholesome and nutritious beverage— That the above plan may be made quite secure, by the Excise appointing and specially licensing, in certain districts, Maltsters who would be willing to retail Malt to the !> oor, duty free, and who should be annually furnished by the respective Parish Officers, with lists of such persons as have been returned poor, and were lit objects for the proposed indulgence in their several parishes; and those persons, on receiving the Malt from the Maltster, should give receipts for it, which should be taken by him, with the parish certificates, to the Collector, who should then allow the Maltster the drawback of duty on all Malt so sold. SHERBORNE, April 10.— One of the most awful hailstorms we ever witnessed was that of Monday last. It commenced at Sherborne about half past eleven o'clock, accompanied by terrific thunder and lightning, which was the cause of some damage. A chimney at Oborne was shattered to pieces by the lightning, and the gable end of the house was also much injured. A stable at Sherborne was partly unroofed : it was struck by a ball of fire, tiie explosion of which was louder than the report of a cannon. In a Held near the town a tree was stripped of its bark, and a brace of partridges which had taken shelter under it were killed. The storm continued about half an hour. HIGHWAY R O B B E R Y .— As Thomas Eatwell, a labourer of Winterbourne, was on Sunday last proceeding towards Devizes, for the purpose of being married on the following day, he was attacked between Cherhill and Beckhampton by two gypsey- like men on horseback, who, after presenting a pistol to his head, and threatening to blow his brains out if he made the least resistance, robbed liiai of lfli. the whole of the money he had accumulated for the purpose of making merry during tho honey- moon. One of the fellows then proposed to strip poor Eatwell'of his wedding garments which he had on,- but the other, content with the money, dissuaded hitu from it, and they both dccunipsd. GREAT FIGHT.— The fight between Brown of Bridgnorth and Sampson tire Birmington Champion, for 500 sovereigns, which for iSonths nasi has excited an intense interest among the patens of pugilism, came off on Tuesday last, at Bishop's wood, 13 miles beyond Wolverhampton, on the Chester road, and about 187 mi'. Cs from London, in the preseuce of at least 50.000 persons. The important morning having arrived, there was no description of vehicle which was not called into requisition. Brown, attended by Spring, Black Richmond, and his immediate friends, travelled in an open landau, drawn by four spirited horses, Brown's o\ Yn property, with " The Bottle in Hand" emblazoned on the pannels of the carriage. Shortly before one o'clock, the order for a move to the arena of battle was given, and Sampson set out in a coach and six suirounded by bis patrons. Brown first entered the ring, shortly before one, accompanied by his second and bottle- holder, Tom Spring and Black Richmond. He was received by a deafening shout of welcome, and on throwing his caster within the ropes, he followed and bowed respectfully in all directions. He was dressed in a blue coat, breeches, and top boots. Sampson arrived soon after, and in turn received thunders of applause: he was accompanied by Harry Holt and Dick Curtis. After some pause, Brown advanced to Sampson, and shook hands, though coldly, Sampson immediately prepared for action, and his example was followed bv Brown, whose general " turnout" was of a superior character; his second, Tom Spring, wearing a white jacket and white silk stockings. The umpires and referee having been chosen> the men prepared for combat; they threw off their last remaining garments, and approached the scratch. The condition of both men was excellent; but the disparitv in size was obvious. Brown stood over his man, aud his gigantic size, added to his apparent confidence, kept him the favourite at 2 to 1, which was laid and taken, the best judges and the most knowing ones of the Fancy laying the odds. The symmetry of Sampson's frame was beautiful, while a fixed determination to do his best was plainly written in every line of his countenance. Brown smiled, tod looked equally satisfied with his chances. THE FIGHT.— Round 1.— At23 minutes after one, the men threw themselves into position ; Sampson, as customary, with his hands low, ready for operations offensive or defensive. Brown, his left hand up and in advance, his right hand a little in the rear covering his head; his nob a little stooped, as if to reconnoitre his man throuuh his guard. The Seconds and Bottle- holders at a little distance. Brown having won the toss, had his side and back a little to the sun. A short time was occupied in manoeuvring, when Brown crept in, and attempted to plant his left and right. Sampson was with him, and slight hits were interchanged, Sampson having rather the best in the right- handed counter. More caution, when Sampson rushed in, and planted his right on Brown's left eye. Brown hit out boldly with his right, in turn, but missed. Another pause, when Sampson was evidently preparing for a desperate lunge. Brown kept his guard well up, but both hit right and left, to the advantage of Sampson, who caught Brown on the nozzle. They both now got to a rally— Brown rushed in and bored Sampson to the stakes, Sampson hitting as he retreated. Brown closed at the ropes, grappling his man with great strength, and trying for the fib— Sampson active with his mawleys. Brown succeded in getting him down, and, as he was down, hit him in the head—( cries of foul, but the umpires made no observation, and Sampson was picked up liy his second.) The moment Brown got up, Harry Holt Cried " first blood," and blood was seen trickling from his nose— thus deciding the first event. 2. Sampson, as before, ready— his arms down, but preparing for mischief— Brown on his guard. Sampson first broke ground, and succeeded in putting in a jobber. Brown countered heavily with his right, but his blow ; pafsed Sampson's ear. Again Brown missed his right, and Sampson was equally unsuccessful with his left. A short pause, when Brown made his left, but with little effect. Sampson returned with the right heavily on Brown's left ogle. Brown's guard still well up, and both cautious. At length Brown rushed in, and hit severely with his right, catching Sampson on the side of the head a stinger. Sampson countered, and, after one or two exchanges, Brown succeeded ill throwing Sampson, and falling heavily upon him. 3. Brown's head showed heavy marks of punishment; but Sampson was free from spot. Little time was lost before Brown rushed in to plant his right, but missed— Sampson attempted to trip him with his right foot, but did not succeed, and Brown fell on his knees. 4. Little time was lost in sparring, when Sampson hit out right and left, and caught Brown on the nose— Brown lashed out desperately with his right, but hit round and missed. More blood from Brown's nose. Sampson hit right and left, catching Brown heavily in the right ear with his left, and was retreating, when Brown followed him rather wildly j Sampson, as he got back, hit him right and left. Brown bored ill on him, and Sampson fell on his back, Brown heavily upon him. Even betting, 5. Brown in getting on his second's knee bled profusely from the right ear, which was cut and swollen. Both steady— Brown planted his left slightly, and hit out desperately with his right, but Sampson stopped him cleverly That's right," cried Harry, u you have only his right ta- fear"). A pause, when Sampson, seeing Ids opening, rushed in and delivered heavily with his right on Brown's left Ogle. Brown foughvto a rally, but without precision, and Sampson hit him down with a terrific flush hit on the smeller. ( First knock- down blow, and the Brums in ecstacy— shouts from all quarters, " He's nothing but an impostor.") 0. Brown came up steady; little time was lost when he flung out his right, and caught Simpson on the left lug— another stinger. Sampson retreated to meet him at points, and caught him round the neck, and pulled him back, when Brown fell heavily with his head against the stake, Sampson under him. 7. Both men went to work as if by mutual consent; weaving hits on both sides, rather at random. Brown bored in, and caught Sampson round the waist against the ropes. Here a dreadful scuffle ensued ; Sampson got his right leg over the rope, while he caught Brown's neck under his left arm. Brown fibbed at his kidneys with his right, and every effort was made to get Sampson down ; but Brown held him up, and continued to fib. At last Sampson, who was not idle with his right, got down, and from Brown's apparent strength lie was agaiii the favourite at 2 to 1, and money was laid and staked. 8. Sampson came up fresh, and still without a mark in his face, though his side showed marks of Brown's body hits. Sampson nlade himself up for mischief, and hit left and right at Brown's canister. Brown returned cleverly with his right, and caught him on the jaw. Sampson fought to a rally, Brown closed, and threw his man heavily. 9. Caution on both sides; Brown caught Sampson at the back of the ear, but could not catch him in the front of the head. A long pause. Sampson delivered his right, but Brown missed a terrific counter, winch, if it had reached the right place, would have done wonders. Sampson retreated, and caught him right and left on the mug. Brown closed for in- fighting at the ropes, and Sampson went down. 10. Brown's left eye was now fast closing, and his frontispiece showed signs of severe punishment, while Sampson scarcely showed a scratch. Brown closed, and Sampson was floored. 11. Sampson came up fresh, and Brown stood well to him.— Sampson again took the lead right and left, and Brown countered wtth the right on the side of his head. A spirited rally followed, in which the deliveries on Sampson's part were heavy, and Brown was in turn tumbled. ( At this moment the outer ring was broken in, and in despite of every exertion to prevent it, the mass of spectators darted spontaneously to the ropes and stakes. The rush was like an overwhelming torrent, ane several persons got within the ropes; it was in vain to use persuasions, forcibly or otherwise; the torrent could not be stemmed, and the men fought on under those unfavourable circumstances.) 12. On coming to the scratch, Sampson lost not a moment in going to work; lie went in weaving right and left. Brown returned manfully, but his blows were not well • directed, and passed off idly; Sampson hit with him, anil delivered some severe facers; B. closed and threw him.— tTlie next 4 rounds terminated in a similar way.) 17. Brown shewed weakness, and Sampson was about to let fly, when Spring interfered, and got between them; Sampson instantly hit Spring with his right in the head, and sent him back. He then rushed to his man, hit him right and left, and dropped him—[ Dreadful confusion, sticks flying in all directions, and the stakes giving way.] 18. Brown came up with game, but Sampson hit him heavily right and left, and floored him. 19. Sampson again went in to punish right and left, and after some severe hitting, Blown dropped on his knees and fell. 20. Sampson again popped his right flush on Brown's nose. Brown did not flinch, but manfully did his best, and in the close brought Sampson down. 21. Brown fought wildly though boldly, and his blows did not tell. III the end Brown was thrown. Great difficulty was now experienced ill obtaining room for the men to light. It would therefore be in vain to pursue tlie details of the rounds further. We were, however, astonished to witness the manly firmness witli which Brown, although his left eye was completely closed, and his face dreadfully disfigured, came up to his man. The fighting, however, was ail in favour of Sampson ; his hitting right and left was beautiful, and he never gave his opponent a chance. The falls weie alternate, but the hitting all against Brown, who, on coming up, often dropped his head, and received without resistance, Sampson Sever suffering an opportunity to escape of punishing him. Still Brown would not say " No," till, in the 42( 1 round, when he fell on his shoulder, and was so much injured by the fall, that it was announced his shoulder was put oat, and that he could not come again.' The hat was then thrown up after forty- nine minutes' tremendous work, proclaiming Sampson's victoiy amidst the deafening shouts of the Brummagem boys. Sampson was conducted to his carriage without a scratch, although tlie left side of his head was swollen and much discoloured. Brown, on the contrary, shewed a woeful alteration of countenance, independent of the injury to his shoulder. He was, however, able to walk from ( he ring. Sampson, by this victory, opposed as lie was by such superior strength and physical advantages, has taken the lead of all his competitors. He never fought so well. Brown turned out a blank in the wheel of fortune, and completely disappointed his friends. Sampson set out for Birmingham in an hour after the fight, accompanied by his friends, in a coach and six; and as he passed through the different towns, he was hailed with an applause equal ^ 0 that of a Wellington. Brown remained it Ivetsey Bank, under surgical care. Immense sums have been lost, and the Bridgnorth boys will long have to rue the fall of their champion. The consternation at Bridgenorth and till the adjacent parts is very great— there is scarcely a man in the place who had not backed Brown heavily.

TAUNTON, April 9 . — T h e t r i a l o f RICHARD GILLAM, for, the murder of his fellow- servant Maria Bagnall, fn Marlborough- buildings, Bath, commenced yesterday morning soon after 8 o'clock, and was not concluded till 10 at night: 17 witnesses were examined, of whom the Rev. Mr. Marshall, the chaplain, and Mr. John Bourne, the keeper of Bath gaol, underwent ( particularly the former) asevere cross examination by Messrs. Bompass and Moody, counsel for the prisoner. Besides Gillam's ample confession, made voluntarily before the Mayor, the chain of evidence was so strong, that the prisoner was found GUILTY, and sentenced to be executed on Thursday, and his body delivered to the surgeons for dissection. In the course of the trial, Mr. Sergeant Bompass and Mr. Moody addressed the Court, and put it to Mr. Justice Littledale whether it was an act of justice that the confession of the prisoner extorted from him by religious hopes and fears, and instilled into his mind by the Rev. Mr. Marshall, could legally be brought as evidence against him. Mr. Justice Gilbert, Judge Best, and Lord Eldon, were cited as precedents in not allowing such evidence, and the wisest judge which England had ever produced ( Sir M. Foster) had declared that confessions bvsuch means were more liable to contain falsehood than truth, and was of all evidence the very worst. This objection wasoverruled by Mr. Justice Littledale, who was more than two hours in summing up. The prisoner, during the trial, did not appear to be at all affected: itideetl his conduct occasionally betrayed considerable levitv. When asked what ho had to say why sentence of death should not be passed on him, he prayed for mercy, and protested he was innocent! The prisoner, upon receiving the awful sentence, held down his head, a death- like paleness came upon him, and he appeared to he at once labouring under the workings of an overburthened conscience, and a sense of his dreadful situation. Messrs. Gunning and Follett condu- ted the prosecution. The Court was exceedingly ciowded throughout the trial. A somewhat awkward circumstance lifts taken place in the Chapter of Winchester. The Rev. Mr. Bernard, a living prebendary, Was reported by the Chapter Clerk, to the Lord Bishop of the See, to be dead. In consequence, the supposed vacant stall was immediately filled up by the Bishop, and given to his friend Mr. James, the brother of the present Bishop of Calcutta. The mistake, however, was no sooner discovered than it was rectified.— Globe. Sydney Gardens, Bath.— These beautiful and picturesque gardens were re- opened on Monday, for the season; and the occasion was honoured by the presence of a very numerous assemblage of fashionables. The Earl of Brecknock has presented lOOi. to the Bath United Hospital, on occasion of his re- election as one of the Representatives of Bath. Capital sport is expected at Bath Spring Meeting, on Wednesday and Thursday next; a number of first- rate horses are entered for the several stakes.

M E E T I N G of S H I P O W N E R S . — A general meeting of the Society of Ship Owners was held vesterday at the City of London Tavern, George Lyall, Esq. in the chair ; when, among other resolutions, the following was carried unanimously:—" That this meeting cannot separate without expressing its deepest regret at the continued and increasing depression of British Shipping, which it is their decided conviction has been accelerated and aggravated by the important changes which have been made during several years past in our navigation and commercial systems; and they most deeply deplore that some of those alterations have a great and obvious tendency to prevent the return of that comparative prosperity, which, under the ancient protection afforded to British navigation, would have resulted from the gradual extinction of any surplus tonnage which may have been produced," The thanks of the meeting were then voted to the Chairman, and the meeting broke up. E R U P T I O N OF MOUNT V E S U V I U S . - — O n t he 14th of March a new orifice, about 15 feet in circumference, was opened in the crater of Mount Vesuvius, on the eastern side, from which issued an immense quantity of smoke, in the form of a globe ; this burst with a tremendous explosion, and scattered around a quantity of boiling liquid. After some days these explosions ceased, but the new aperture continued to discharge a greal deal of smoke, and occasionally some flames. On the 17th and 18th these phenomena were renewed with increased force, the detonations became more frequent, and a slight flow of lava was perceptible. On the 2lith, tile new opening was Increased to 60 feet, and the matter ejected piled round it in a pyramidical form to the height of 50 feet; stones were occasionally thrown up into the air, and explosions \ vere_ continued at intervals of 10 minutes.— March 22: Since yesterday two other openings have been made in the crater, of larger dimensions than the first, and from them issue quantities of smoke and flame. After several explosions a tremendous shock forced the three apertures into one, and a column of smoke and ashes rose from it, presenting to the city of Naples the appearance of a pine- tree of gigantic dimensions. The rays of the sun reflecting against it presented one of the most extraordinary spectacles ever seen. Stones were thrown up in srreat numbers, and one among the rest, of immense dimensions, rolled down the mountain. The violence of the eruption began todiminish at three o'clock. At five o'clock the summit of Vesuvius displayed only a small cloud of smoke. The road to Portici is crowded with carriages ahd with pedestrians.— Eight o'clock : As the column of smoke diminishes, the noises and explosions in the interior of the mountain increase, and symptoms of earthquake threaten another violent eruption. Shocks have been felt in Calabria, in the district of Reggio and Palmi. No damage of importance has been done. Five persons read their recantation in Askeaton Church, on Sunday, March 30.— Dublin Mail. A fire at the Hague has reduced 154 houses to ashes, and thrown destitute more than 700 individuals.

BALLOON A S C E N T . — O n Tuesday afternoon Mr. Henry Green ascended with his balloon from Greenwich, and after remaining in the air about half an hour, descended on the estate of Mr. Franks, at Totteridge, in Hertfordshire, ten miles north of London. Monday last, at Elham, Essex, with eight legs, one body, head, and tail, and partaking of male and female. A cod- fish was caught on the eastern coast, a few days ago, weighing 571bs. the largest, it is thought, ever seen on the shores of England. A Seville orange cut into pieces and eaten, peel and all, without more rest than is necessary to take breath, is said to be an infallible remedy for ague. The discovery of a deposit of fossil plants in some false coal strata, five miles south of Scarborough, has excited much attention. The plants are remarkable for their preservation, beauty, and variety, nearlv fifty species already having been found, all differing from the ferns now growing in Britain, and evidently belonging to a different climate, far warmer than any in Europe ! The business of Bristol assizes commenced yesterday before the Recorder, Sir C. Wetherell, his Majesty's Attorney- General. Nine of the persons accused of the conspiracy to murder the Maras, have offered to plead guilty, and to obtain the surrender of a great quantity of arms, provided their lives shall be spared. Their proposition has been laid before Government. OLD BAILEY.— These Sessions commenced yesterday, with a calendar of 326 prisoners for trial. Mr. Barlow, keeper of Ely gaol, having sus. picion that the prisoners sentenced to transportation at the late assizes, meant to attempt escaping from prison, had theijl. searched on Wednesday morning, and found the irons of several of them cut off. In the pocket of one of the prisoners a letter was discovered, addressed to his wife, who resides io Ely, requesting her to obtain certain instruments to facilitate their plan, and to throw them over the wall, assuring her that they should all make their escape. The prisoners have in consequence been farther secured by double irons. A daring highway robbery was perpetrated on Friday morning last, between Gravesend and Dartford on the person of a French gentleman named La Fontaine, who with his lady was travelling to town in a post- chaise. Three ruffians in a taxed cart stopped the chaise, struck La Fontain with the butt- end of a pistol senseless, dragged him out, mid thtew his body into a ditch. His lady having fainted, they placed her by the side of her husband, and then ransacked the chaise of 600 Napoleons, 400/. worth of jewels, and other articles of value, and escaped to London, having cut the traces of the chaise. A Clergyman, named Fenn, who lately kept an academy in the neighbourhood of Bloomsbury- square, and who also carried on the trade of a bill discounter, absconded last week after passing forged bills to a greal extent. Several tradesmen hitvc been sufferers by his delinquency. Dr. Fothergill was a Quaker physician, and Mr. Grenville was Secretary of State. At the commencement of the American war, the Minister was particularly anxious to know the views and purposes of the Quakers, who then, as they do now, formed a Iatge portion of the people of America. 1'* earful of exciting suspicion, and imposing silence on the Doctor, if he at once mentioned his purprsc, Mr. Grenville feigned illness, and sent for 1' iini in his professional Capacity for advice. The Doctor came, and'for such a patient he could not refuse to stay for half an hour's conversation. The American war was the popular theme, and was of course introduced on this occasion. By ingenious remarks Mr. Grenville at last drew trom Dr. Fothergill the most satisfactory assurance of the neutrality of his American brethren, and, becoming better, he would not trouble the Doctor to prescribe. " Shall I return to thee ?" said Dr. F. " That is not necessary," replied the Minister, slipping a fee of several guineas into his hand. " But I shall be glad to see you when we are both at leisure." Looking archly, firstat the guineas, and then at the Minister, the Doctor said, in his usual dry and humorous tone—" at this rate, friend Grenville, I can manage to spare thee an hour's advice now and then ; therefore don't be afraid to send for me.'' MANURE.— Among the various manures introduced into the modern practice of husbandry, there is one which is peculiarly applicable to wheat when it declines, and appears to require assistance, at this period of the year. This manure is saltpetre. Its stimulating powers are great, and the time for using it is only now approaching. The method of applying it is as follows: from one hundred to one hundred and a quarter weight of saltpetre, in powder, is to be mixed with a quantity of sand, ashes, or dry mould, and sown as a top- dressing upon an acre of wheat. Attention is required to see that the saltpetre is completely pulverised, and thoroughly incorporated with the matter with which it is mixed, to insure its regular dispersion over the ground, as a mass, or lump of it, in its unmixed state, falling on one spot, would prove too powerful, and destroy the plant growing thereon. The time for using it is tlie middle or latter end of April, or even the beginning of May. It is not a very expensive manure, as it may generally be purchased in a wholesale way, for from twenty- two to twenty- seven or twenty- eight shillings per ewt. Its effects are frequently perceptible in a very short time after it has been applied. MARRIED.] On the 8th instant, at Badminton, Gloucestershire, the seat of the Duke of Beaufort, Thos.

SATURDAY, APRIL 12. The Paris papers of Thursday contain accounts from Turkey, repeating what has already been asserted, that the Emperor of Russia has taken his final resolution, and that his troops are about to march ill all directions to enter the Principalities. The resolutions of Ministers on the long agitated question of the Corn Laws, containing, as they do, a higher scale of importing duties than the measure proposed last year, and laying importation under a greater restraint, will, on this account be more acceptable to the agricultural interests, and less acceptable to the commercial classes. The House of Commons, to use the phrase of a well- known County Member, " was never more dull," and many of the Members, on their leaving town for the holidays, expressed great doubt if they should again find it necossary to return. The Duke of Wellington entertained the Cabinet Ministers and their Laities to dinner yesterday, at his Grace's country scat, Strathfieldsay. The Duke of Bedford is entertaining a large party of distinguished visitors, at Woburn Abbey. DOVER, April 10,— The Medusa, steamvessel, arrived last night from Boulogne, with between 40 and 50 passengers, amongst whom were the Duke of Portland, Lady Weymouth, & c. j It appears by the Paris papers of Wednesday, that the Clubs or Electoral Assemblies continue to hold sittings; they are held in private houses, and a scrutiny is resorted to, which lasts from morning till night. The partisans of the Clubs, and the opposers of them, attack each other with great violence. The only circumstance that is calculated to create alarm is, that the promoters of the Clubs are men who played conspicuous parts in the Revolution, and under Buonaparte. The Bourbonists suspect all professions of love for the Bourbons, which proceed ftom such personages. The Monitour contains a Royal Ordinance, appointing the Presidents and Vice Presidents of the Electoral Colleges, convoked for April 21. I t appears, liy t h e last accounts from Toulon, of the 31st ult.. that troops and ammunition continue to arrive there daily, A letter from Rio. via America, states, that an expedition is fitting out to bombard Buenos Ayres, and tliat several vessels intended for that purpose were ready to sail. Lisbon Gazettes have arrived from the 24th to. the 30th of March inclusive. Their contents are entirely barren of political interest. The Gazette of the 24th contains an order, issued by the Department of Justice, and directed to the Corregidor of the district of Coimbra, by the especial order ot' the Prince Regent, expressive of his Highness's abhorrence of the conduct of certain individuals, who attacked a Deputation from the University of Coimbra, when on its progress to Lisbon, with an Address of the University, congratulating the Regent ui » n his safe return into Portugal. L e t t e r s from Port au P r i n c e , of the 15th of February, via France, state that the affairs of that island become every day more embarrassing, caused by the strictness of the new T a r i f f ot' duties, which prevent importation* from Europe, as well as from France. On Thursday the anniversary dinner of the friends and supporters of the Jewish Hospital, at Mile End, was celebrated at the City of London Tavern. His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, Patron of the Institution, in the chair, A very numerous and respectable company attended. The collections at the Synagogue, at Mile End, and during the day, amounted to upwards . f:-, o;. - • - — - ' ^ GILLAM THE MURDERER.— This wretched being's sentence has been respited. An account of his trial is given in the preceding page of this paper, and the following further particulars appear in the Bath Herald. of yesterday:— " Gillham was sentenced to be executed vesterdav, but in consequence of an objection made at the trial by the prisoner's counsel against the admissibility of his confession, as evidence, lie has been respited for a few davs in order to leave the point for the decision of the 12 Judges; Mr. Justice Littledale, however, expressed his full conviction that the confession was perfectly admissible.— We have been given to understand, from a respectable quarter, that the jury, who tried Gillam, purpose presenting a memorial to the 12 Judges, stating their entire conviction of the prisoner's guilt, from the general mass of evidence, wholly independent of the confession. " 12 o'clock— We have this moment heard from authority, that Mr. Justice Littledale has respited the prisoner till the ith of June, when he will, unless the Judges decide to the contrary, suffer the last penalty of the law." BRUNSWICK THEATRE.— Yesterday concluded this protracted enquiry, that has lasted nearly six weeks. The verdict of the Jury was read by the Coroner, as follows:— " The Jurors charged to enquire touching the deaths of David Sampson Maurice, & c. unanimously return the following Spccial Verdict i- rFirst— Accidental, as to the above- named parties, caused by the fall of the iron roof, with the matters and things attached thereto and therefrom pendent, and part of the front wall and balcony of the messuage in Well- street, known as the late Royal Brunswick Theatre. They first find that the said lamentable accident was caused by the hanging of heavy weights improperly to the roof. " Secondly, that the weights, so improperly hung, were so placed by the orders of the proprietors. They find that many warnings were given to the proprietors. They further find, that sufficient indications of failures appeared of which Mr. Carruthers was cognizant, which ought to have been sufficient to induce a prudent man to have closed the theatre until the danger apparent from such indications had been provided against. The Jury returned as a deodand the substances which moved to, and caused the death of, the aforesaid persons." The Coroner remarked, that as it would take some time to reduce the verdict into a legal form, he would retire with the Jury for the purpose; this he did. At the Old Bailey Sessions yesterday, Catherine Welch, aged 2- 1 years, was convicted of tlie wilful murder of her male child, John Welch, on the 1st of March last. The jury recommended tlie prisoner to mercy, in consequence of her youth, and the evidence being only circumstantial.— The Recorder passed the awful sentence of Death on the unhappy woman, and ordered her for execution on Monday, and her body to be given to fhe surgeons for dissection.

Winchester, SATURDAY, APRIL 12. Upwards of 400 hundred of the gentry of this city and neighbourhood were present at Dr. Chard's annual concert on Monday last, at St. John's House. The performance on the whole met with rapturous applause. Miss Godfrey's singing was much admired, and Mr. Broadhurst was encored in every song; Mr. Bellamy was in fine voice. The amateurs' performance in the several grand overtures, was well received. After the concert the ball commenced, and was kept up till a latp hour. A public meeting was held on Thursday at the town hall, Romsey, for the purpose of considering the expediency of establishing in that town and neighbourhood the practice of sweeping chimneys by machinery, instead of by climbing boys. The chair was taken by the Right Hon. Sir G. H. Rose, Bart. M. P. who. in an able speech, introduced the business of the day by detailing the miseries and hardships to which many of our fellow creatures are subjected by being employed in the present system of sweeping chimneys, and the advantages that would result from adopting the use of the newly- invented machine, which had succeeded in its object with Oil chimnies out of 100. John Fleming, Esq. M. P. expressed the great pleasure he felt in co- operating with the inhabitants of Romsey in promoting a measure which had for its object the doing away with the present inhuman system of cleansing chimneys by means of climbing boys. He strongly recommended the immediate adoption of Glass's machine, which bad fully succeeded in the towns of Portsmouth and Portsea, The Hon. Gentleman stated, that if the chimneys of - any of his tenants in the neighbourhood were so consti uctcd that the machine could not be used with effect, he would cause them to be altered forthwith at his own expense. Ileconcluded by moving a series of resolutions, which had for their object the formation of all association to carry into effect the purposes tpr which the meeting was convened. George Eyre, Esq. in a speech replete with sentiments which reflected credit on his head and heart, seconded the resolutions, which were unanimously adopted by the meeting. Lord Palmerston was requested to become the Patron of the Society ; the Worshipful the Mayor for the time being, President; and Sir G. H. Rose, Bart., Sit W. Heathcote, Bart., J. Fleming, Esq. M. P., George Eyre, Esq., J . C. Nightingale, Esq., and the Revds. T. Penton and J . Ford, Vice- Presidents. Several gentlemen of the town were named as a Committee to carry the resolutions into effect; and Mr. Holmes, the town clerk, was appointed Secretary and Treasurer. A vote of thanks was given tq the Right Hon. Chairman, and a liberal subscription was entered into for purchasing the necessary machines, which are to be deposited with the master sweep of Romsey, on his undertaking to discontinue the practice of employing boys.

A numerous and most respectable meeting of the supporters of this Society was held on Thursday last, at the Bear Inn, Devizes, in order to receive the Report of the Committee appointed on the 9th of January, and to establish Rules and Tables for the management of the Society. On the motion of John Benett, Esq. M. P . John Awdry, Esq. was called to the chair. The proceedings of the last meeting having been read, Mr. Benett addressed the company. After noticing the general interest which he had the satisfaction of finding from all quarters was beginning to be directed through the county to this institution, and observing that it was unnecessary for him to remark upon the peculiar advantages likely to result from the system proposed to be adopted, and the superiority it possessed over parochial clubs, he proceeded to state what had been done since January by tlie exertions of the two Secretaries, and the Committee, in compiling and arranging such rules and tables as the calculations of the most scientific actuaries, and the experience of similar societies in other counties, chiefly recommended. He adverted to a Bill now before the House of Commons, only to observe, that from the period that must elapse before that Bill could pass into a law, the provisions of it could not affect this society. He took notice of an apprehension which he understood existed in some minds, that the labouring classes would be deprived of the festival usually held under the existing system of benefit clubs. The County Society, he declared, was by no means adverse to an anniversary meeting : wherever in a district it should be the wish of the membcis to meet annually, the rules of the society would not interfere to prevent them ; on the contrary, he hoped to see such meetings very numerous, attended not merely by the benefitted members, but also by the honorary members of each neighbourhood. Rich and poor should thus be united, and good order preside amidst general festivity. The Rev. W. Fisher, one of the honorary Secretaries, after lamenting the unavoidable absence of bis colleague, who was prevented from attending by domestic affliction, read the report of the Committee, and the rules respecting honorary and ordinary members, recommended by that Committee. Each rule, as it was read, was put from the chair, and agreed to unanimously. The Secretary concluded by proposing the addition of a clause, for the admission of existing clubs in a body, which was also agreed to. Thomas Bucknall Estcourt, Esq, next read an abstract of the tables, prepared by the Committee, showing the nature and rate of the assurances, which were adopted unanimously. Walter Long, Esq. rose to propose the names of the following noblemen and gentlemen to fill the offices of the society; Patron, The Lord Lieutenant; Vice Patrons The Bishop of the Diocese, all the Noblemen who may support the Institution, and the two Members of the County. President, John Benett, Esq. M. P. carried nem. con. The following gentlemen were then nominated as vicepresidents: R. G. Long, Esq.; P. C. Methuen, Esq.; T. G. Bucknall Estcourt, Esq. M. P . ; T. H. Phipps, Esq.; G. W. Tayler, Esq. M . P . ; W. Long, Esq.; Wm. Wyndham, Esq,; J. C. Hobhouse, Esq.; Col. A'Court; Ambrose Goddard, Esq.; John Awdry, Esq.; T. H. Saunders, Esq.; G. H. Walker Heneage, Esq, As trustees: Sir J. D. Astley, Bart. M. P . ; R. G. Long, Esq.; Joseph Pitt, Esq. M. P . ; P. C. Methuen, Esq.; G. W. Tayler, Esq. M. P . ; Wm. Wyndham, Esq.; H. King, Esq.; J. Warde, Esq.; W. E. Waldron, Esq.; Robert Hughes, Esq.; W. Gundry, Esq.; J. Ravenhill, Esq. As Auditors— T. H. Phipps, Esq., W. Locke, Esq., W. W. Salmon, Esq. As Treasurers— Messrs. Tylees, Devizes. Mr. Benett now stated, that of all the offices, that which it was most difficult to fill, and which it was most important to fill well, was that of Secretary. He had great pleasure in saying that the difficulty had been removed in the most gratifying manner by the zealous and liberal offer of Mr. T. Bucknall Estcourt to execute gratuitously that office for the present year. This nomination was received with great approbation, after which a Central Committee was appointed, to assist in the management. It was proposed by Mr. Benett, and carried, that this society do begin operating on Whit Monday, May 20th. On the motion of Mr. Thos. Estcourt, cordial thanks were offered to the two Honorary Secretaries, Rev. F. Lear and Rev. W. Fisher, to whose unremitted and zealous exertions in laying the foundation and in furthering tile establishment of the society, lie desired to bear testimony ; and which, as must be evident to all who had heard the documents just read, could not be too highly valued. On the motion of Rev. W. Short, thanks were then voted to Mr. Benett, for his able assistance in the cause of the institution. Mr. Benett, after acknowledging the compliment, proposed the thanks of this meeting to the chairman, which was carried with general applause. Before the company retired, a very liberal subscription was commenced, and contributions received to a large amount. We are authorised to say, that donations Srftt subscriptions will be received by Messrs. Tylees, Devizes, Treasurers, and by all other bankers in the county. A most liberal subscription has been entered into for carrying into effect certain improvements in the Courts of Justice in this city, which have been required by the Judges of Assize, and approved of by them. The subscription amounts to about ll. ll'O/, and additional sums continue to be received at both the banks in this city. We understand that a Mr. John Baines, of Oxford, will offer himself as House Surgeon to our Infirmary on Saturday next; for which situation we have been informed that a Mr. Randall, from Guy's Hospital, is also a candidate. At Devizes Assembly on Tuesday, the last for the season, there was a large assembly of fashionables, but chiefly of the younger branches, who seemed highly to enjoy the pleasures of the evening. The Stewards, as is customary at the last ball for the season, admitted an extension of an hour to the usual time. Mr. Benett, one of our County Members, and Messrs. Pearse and Watson Taylor, Members for Devizes, were present. At a meeting of the Commissioners under the Devizes Improvement Act, it was resolved, that a plan suggested by Captain Tayler, for bringing water irom the canal into the town, should be carried into immediate execution. On Wednesday last the subscribers to the Barford Sunday School held their annual meeting. The children, 110 in number, met at the school- rooms at halfpast nine o'clock, when the two first classes ( boys and girls) underwent an examination as to their improvement in reading, spelling, and knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, before the Rev. Dr. Pole, the Captain and Miss Poles, and many persons of respectability, who assembled to witness the very gratifying scene. The children, accompanied by the subscribers and friends to the institution, then proceeded to Church, where a most excellent and impressive sermon was preached by the above Rev. gentleman, who took his text from Hebrews, ch. 13, v. 16, " But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased." After which they returned to the school rooms, where a plentiful supply of roast beef, plum pudding, and a sufficient quantity of cider to make them cheerful and happy, were provided for them ; and it could not fail to afford to every one present a most delightful and gratifying sight to behold such a number of children, insttuctcd in their duty to God and Man, partaking of the bounty and liberality of those who are anxious to promote Christian charity and benevolence. The subscribers and friends of the above school partook of an excellent dinner, served up at the Green Dragon, by Mr. Hinton, in honour of the occasion, and the whole day was spent in the utmost harmony and good feeling. On the 3d instant a woodcock was killed in a coppice of Lord Holland's at Winterslow in this county. When the person who shot it went to pick the bird up, fie discovered a nest on the ground with four eggs in it. In one of them, which was accidentally broken, was a bird, which, from the shape of its hill, was evidently a young woodcock. The bird that was killed proved unfortunately to be a hen, and she would most probably have hatched her eggs in the course of another day or two. These eges ale of almost the size, shape, and colour of a partridge's, except that there is a sprinkling of dingy red spots on them, particularly towards the larger end. WAREHAM, April 10.— The musicians of the Woolbridge Band had the honor of displaying their talents at East Stoke, on Easter Monday, before the Rev. Mr. Buller, John Bond, Esq., and other distinguished gentry in that vicinity, who were pleased to express their entire satisfaction at the performance of this juvenile party, and gave them a liberal remuneration. CAUTION TO POST- BOYS.— On the 8th inst. William Order, servant to Mr. Jones of the White Hart inn, in this city, was charged before the Magistrates of this division, with having ill- treated one of his horses, by furiously riding, beating, and throwing it down, on his return from Shaftesbury. The case being clearly made out against him. he was committed ( under Mr. Martin's Act) to the tread- mill at Devizes for three months. On Monday last was married, Charles Shore, Esq. second son of Thomas Shore, Esq. of Nottington, Dorset, to Seley, third daughter of John Blandy, Esq. of Linkinholt, Hants.

On Saturday evening the 5th inst. died, Mary Jane Horne, youngest daughter of Mr. Horne, of Allington, in her 22d year. The peaceful submission of her mind to the divine will during a short and distressing illness was exemplary ; and the joyful hope of a blessed immortality through the merits of her Redeemer, are sources of unspeakable consolation to her bereaved and deeply afflicted relatives and friends. On the 6th inst. died at Melksham, aged 7, Ann, the beloved and affectionate daughter of Mr. Giller, ol the Bear Inn. Died at her father's house, Anna Maria, only daughter of Thos.
