Tht* British Public have, happily, hcen lung familiar with a Schi o » e, which, bv a small an Sacrifice, secure* from Poverty the Children and ({ elatives of Persons w hose Incomes are wholly or chiefly dependant on Ibeir i. ives; — which is capable of a very useful Application lo Marriage SettlementsiVnd which is eminently calculated to give Stability lo a vast Varielv of inlpo'rt- aot Trt impactions. It iii not wonderful, that a Plan which embraces so many beneficial Objects should have powerfully engaged the Public Attention, and mixed itself widely and intimately, with the whole Business of Life. THE PELICAN Life insurance Company has, for 3) Year « , held a distinguished Rank among the nunierouii Establishments connected with these great Purposes; The Confidence they have so long enjoyed they are naturally ambitious to retain. They have, acctirdihgl- f', taken into their seriotls Consideration tbe alleged Improvement in Human Life; and they have instituted laborious and careful Inquiries,, wirh a View to ascer- tain the Safety of the reduced Terms of Insurance which, of late Years, have been offered to the Public; and to determine whether the Interests of the Assured would be best consulted by a diminished Rate of Pre- mium, or by a deferred Advantage in the shape of a Bonus. The Result of these Inquiries has been sueh an Adjustment of their Rales as will enable the; Directors to offer to the Public a very considerable Reduction of Premium in the younger and middle Ages of Life. They have been induced to adopt this Cotifte by a Conviction of the Uncertainty which a deferred Benefit implies, and the serious Responsibility which it ent.-. iis on the Assured by constituting them Partners liable for the I josses of the Office ; and further, by a Preference for the Simplicity of an Arrangement which, in Consi- deration of a moderate annual Payment, secures the required Sum ; instead of providing an undefined Bonus at the Expense of a certain Addition to the Premiums- It is, therefore, on mature Consideration, that the PELICALN COMPANY adhere to the Principle on which they were originally established. The Exiet'ft of their invested Capital, and the Responsibility of their Proprietors, offer to the Parties insured the most perfect Security • whiL- the proposed Alteration in tlieir " Rate;* afford* such Terms they hope witl pic- serve to the PELICAN tlie Confidence and Patioua<' « of the Public. The Directors insure, on equitable Terms, the Lives of Persons resident abroad, or about lo proceed to Foreign Climates; and the Pelican Office presents great Advantages to Officers of the Army and Navy, as no extra Charge is made for Home Service. " The moderate Addition requited from such Individuals for change of Climate may be covered by an average Rate, or the proposed Destination he made the Mailer of special Agreement on taking out the Policy ; ' he Insurer paying only the Home Premium until the Contingency contemplated shall happen. An impoiu ant Extension of this Plan, rendering a Policy, at the Option of the Possessor, perfectly secure from the Forfeiture, which the Negligenee ofthe Assured or his' " Departure . beyond the Limits of Europe might occasion, offers to Solicitors, Agents', and others, a Mode of Indemnification peculiarly desirable. The Directors are at all Times willing to pu! cha? e Policies on the most liberal Terms; an Arrangement obviously desirable, when the Object of an hism- ame has been effected, or Individuals are unable to continue iheir annual Pay menu. In all disputed Cases, a Tender of Arbitration wif! be made. ; . The Period for the Payment of Renewal is extended to 31) Dajs. Permission is given to the Assured to pass in decked Vessels along the Shores of Great Britain and Iceland, ' tnd between them and the opposite Shore from Ham- burgh in Bon idea u x ; and the Conditions of the Policy are not vitiated, should the Assured ' be drowned whilst ailing in Yachts or Pleasure Boats on the Shores of Great Britain All Claims are paid within three Months after the proper Certificates of the Death and Burial of the Persons deceased are approved. . Annuities, either immediate Survivorship or defer- red, are granted- on tlie m'Ost equitable Terms under a Special Act of Parliament; payable half- yearly or Quarterly. Endowments for Children attaining the Ages of Fourteen and Tweuty- « M; e, may also be made by th6 Payment of a specific Sum, or by an Annual Rate. Every Facility is given for the Execution of those Assurances which require Dispatch; and Attendance is given at the Offices from Ten till Four o'Clock daily. AGENTS: Shrewsbury Mr. Tho$. Howell.

Lichfield, Sept. 20, 1827. GENTLEMAN, ; IMPELLED by a sense of gratitude for the [_ remarkable cure 1 have received by the use of your invaluable Antiscorbutic- Drops, I forward you* the particulars of my case, that others who may be similarly afflicted may know where to apply for relief. For twenty years I had a most inveterate Scorbutic Eruption upon my arms, legs, and back of my neck, attended with the most intolerable itching and smarting.— I tried various remedies* and had the advice of Medical Men in this City, but all to no purpose ; the disease increased to such a degree as to destroy my rest at night, my appetite and gene rill health failed, and I despaired of recovery. Being recommended to give your Autiscor-. bulic Drops a trial,; 5 purchase^ a small hottle from Mr. Edwards, Druggist, of this City, and after taking- five small bottles, to my great astonishment, as well as that of my family, the complaint was entirely eradicated ; and I am now able to follow my business, which before I was incapable of attending to. Ii will give me pleasure to answer any enquiries; either personally, or if by letter, post paid. I remain, your obedient servant, JOHN SMITH, Saddler and Harness Maker, Market- street, Lichfield.

Varna, the Turks made a vigorous sortie on the 21st ult. but were repulsed with great loss; and it- was in this affair that Prince Menzikoff was wounded. On the 31st they made another desperate sortie from Varna, and took up a position on the left of Worori- 2ow, who had taken the command of the besieging army, as successor to Menzikoff, but they were driven in by a night attack. Admiral Greig bad the previous day landed near Bourgaz, on the other side of the mountains, and destroyed a fort, carrying off twelve guns.— Or' the blockade of Silistria the bulletin gives no details. The works against it had been carried on; and a Russian flotilla had arrived before tire place.— No mention is made of the incursions of the Turks from Widdiu and'Kalafat into Wallachia, not of the reported operations against General Geismar. From these accounts it appears that Varna, though closely pressed, still held out, nor does it appear that any summons hat! been sent to the Governor to sur- render, as was mentioned in some of the German papers. Choumla is strictly invested, but the com- munication with the capital is open; and the Grand Vizier, who left Constantinople < Jn the 20th ult. with 40,000 men, for Choumla direct, must, have been at, rto great distance from that, place by the 2d of the present month. The Russians, it, was expected, would advance and endeavour to prevent his entrance into Choumla.— Admiral Heyden, according to the Paris papers, had received orders to blockade the Dardanelles with the squadron uuder his command. The Emperor Nicholas, though he embarked at Odessa on the 21, was detained by contrary winds until the 4th. This detention would, it was supposed, defer for sotae days the attempt to take Varna by a general'assault. The greatest importance is evidently attached'to- the capture of this place, and no doubt every possible effort will be made by the Russians to render themselves masters of it. The conflict will be a most sanguinary one whenever it may occur. Intelligence" has- been received from the Morea to the 5th. No military operations had followed the landing of the first division of the Preach expedition ; but the second division was to proceed against Patras, an important position. Ibrahim was at the latter place w ith between four and- five thousand men. rOSTSCiM iMX VOX, Mort( lap Night, Sept. 59, 1* 28. R PUT 11.

IKELAND, The situation of Ireland anal particularly the account* which have arrived from thence within a vevy li w hours, have created a gloom in the City, which has been increased by t:. e report that Russia lias declared a blockade of the Dardanelles, and by a lar^ e advance iu the prices of corn at the market th: s morning. The funds have fallen above one per cent. With respect to Ireland, can any man be surprised that affairs have reached such a crisis, that the projects of the Association and the Agitators demand the immediate notice and interposition of the Government? The seditious harangues of the itinerant demagogues of the Association have excited a spirit that appears to have gone too far, « . « pet, for the designs of the promoters of treason. In fact, organized bodies of Fopish peasantry, of from '.' 0,000 lo 30,000 strong have already shown themselves; and Mr. Lawless even boasted that he had in his train a multitude at least 250,000 in number. These demonstrations appear to have been too early made for the prime leaders of the incipient rebellion ; and at their meeting on Thursday last Hiev wanted to disown the origin of this organization of the people ; and thus the demagogues, seeing that they have succeeded in raising a rebel force in Ireland, are endeavouring, as their prototypes of thirty years ago, to hack out, and leave their unfortunate dupes to the punishment, much more deservedly earned by themselves. Their, threats, they now find, from Ihe spirit breaking forth • gainst them by the Protestants of the Empire, will be treated w ith the contcmpt they deserve, and they wunt now to retreat before it is too late. The necessity of instant and decisive mrasurrs is admi ted ami declared by the Government With respect to the nature irf those measures, and to the preparations that have been made, and are making, we ( says the ( ei trier J shall not at present speak more at large. It is MiBHciertt ( 0 say— lhat they arc adequate lo the crisis, and can, and will be, applied with < ekrity am! decision. The report relative to the blockade of the Darda- nelles by Itussia, rests where it did on Saturday It has not jet assumed any othcial shape. It has neither hern continued nor cuutradicted from au- thority— and, therefore, some of our Con emporaries have taken it for granted that it is true. Now, we will not go to that length, because we will not, upon such loose evidence, eio that which might seem dis- paraging to Russia, and throw doubts upon the sincerity of the Emperor's assurances. We have his solemn and recorded consent to waive any rights as a belligerent in the Mediterranean Sea,— and we have too much rrspei t for his character to suppose that he would act in violation of it. Had the Morea been supplied or reinforced by the passage of the Darda- nelles being kept open, then there might have been some reason for shutting it. But it would in that case have been a measure applicable' to the three Powers, and vet to one. A separate blockade by the belligerent Power can only be viewed as a measure for the separate war of that Power. A crowd of observation! present themselves to our mind, but we shall abstnip lortlie present from making them pub- lic. The determination of his Majesty's Government is very properly kept secret. But we have no doubt that it has been dictated by a sound, wise, aiul British polii y. It is said that dispatches have been sent oil to Mr. Stratford Canning.— Courier. The 1st Battalion of the Coldstream Regiment of Guards has received orders to proceed, on Wednesday morning, from London for Manchester. We have a large mass of intelligence, none of it, however, official, in the Paris Papers, which have arrived of Friday's and Saturday's dates; the Brussels Papers of Friday ; and the German Papers of Tyesday. There are many more details of the incur- sions made by the Turk* in Little Wallachia, the in- habitants of which M'f ill to be the victims of a most cruel system of warfare- the country is ravaged anil laid waste— the villages plundered and the inhabitants carried off captive.— A third incursion has aggravated these horrors and miseries. The Turks penetrated in two divisions to the other side of the Schuyll, and having seized what cattle, provisions, and supplies they wanted, retired again to their Camp at Kalafat. The effect of the attacks is said in these accounts to have been the raising the siege of Silistria. According to un account from Constantinople, of the 31st ult. Hussein Pa « iia lias sent a Despatch to the Sultan, infe ruling' him that the Russians cannot pass the Balkan, and that the fate of this campaign must he considered asdccidt d. The advanced guard of the Grand Vizier's army is said to have arrived at Choumla.— The Emperor ISicbolas proceeded to Van** by land.

O that 1 had words to repre- " sent to the present generation the miseries which " their fathers underwent!— That I could describe " their fears and anxieties, their restless nights and " uneasy days, when every morning threatened to " usher in the last, day of England's liberty. Had " men such a sense of the miseries of the time past, " it would teach them what consequences they were " to expect from any successful attempt against the " present Establishment.' 1— Such was the appeal of this wise and good man to his countrymen: the Papists still maintain that their religion is unchanged and unchangeable : and if proof of their ulterior designs were wanting, they have been amply supplied by the proceeding's of the Irish Papists during- the last few months. — We trust, therefore, that, the appeal of the Duke of Newcastle will be responded to bv the united efforts of his countrymen on behalf of the Cause which His Grace so nobly supports. The tenants of Thomas Harries, Esq. resident in Benthall, and their neighbours, met at the Leopard itiin, yesterday, to celebrate the marriage of his nephew, Francis Harries, Esq. to Miss Harriet Boy- cott, they having just arrived at home — Two sheep were roasted, which, with plenty of roast beef, plum pudding, and good ale, were distributed to the cottagers residing iu the said parish, to the number of ' 200 and upwards.— A dinner was prepared by Mrs. Jones for the principal tenants and their neighbours, who spent the evening in the utmost harmony, and the whole concluded with tea for the females, and a dance on the green. An excellent band of music attended on the occasion; and the festive joys were kept up with great spirit till a late hour. HORSK- STPAT- ING IN SHROPPHIRE. - Scarce a night passes but a horse is stolen from some part of this county. Two horses were stolen from near Stottesden, last week; one on Monday morning, which the thief rode so hard, that, being a strong waggon horse, he was obliged to turn him off near the village of Morvillc, much distressed.— On Wed- nesday night, another horse was stolen from a field near Stottesden, at a small distance from that which the former horse had been stolen from on Monday, and supposed by the same man, who was taken at Derby, with the horse in his possession, about eight o'clock the following night, through the spirited exertion of an individual of Bridgnorth. We regret to state that a fire broke out early on yesterday morning on the premises of Mr. Bowers, druggist, North gate- street, Chester, which was not got under until considerable damage had been effected. 2 8 3 6 4 2 5 3 dr 4 * r 7 dr WALSALL UACES.

The superior quality of the grain in Shropshire and Ihe adjacent parts of the Principality, is proved by the fact, that the dealers from Liverpool, Cheshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire, and Worcestershire, have been making large purhases, for several weeks past, in our markets, of seed wheat and best grinding samples.- It is to the circumstance, that much of the grain in almost every other com district of the king- dom has been got in in a bad state, and not to any deficiency in quantity, that the present rapid advance in price is to be attributed.— See Marhet Herald. LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 27.— The arrivals of grain during the week have again been very moderate. The transactions in wheat have been to a fair extent, and chiefly on speculation, the millers still purchas- ing only for their immediate wants. Prime qualities of old have realized a further advance, since this day se'nnight, of 2s. per 701b. Of English new the supply lias been extremely limited, but of Irish new several parcels have arrived, and been disposed of at about our last quotations. The business in oats has not been very extensive, but prices of b > th new and old are fully Id. per 45lb. higher. Barley has been more required, and in some instances an advance of 2sS. per GOib. has been obtained. WAJLlKfef. BfKTH.

" At a meeting of the Nobility, Gent ry, Yeomanry^ & c. of Buckinghamshire, held at Aylesbury on Friday, it was resolved. to establish a Brunswick Club, for the support of Protestant Constitutional principles in the County of Buckingham ; and the IViarqiiis of Charidos was unaiiiuiousiy elected President. The liberal papers have been very careful in announcing thatA new Roman Catholic Chapel is bout to be. erected in Leek11 and that " the Right Rev. Dr. Walsh has subbcrihed x"> 0 towards the building." The drift of this mode of insertion is to impress simple people with a belief that some " Right, Reverend1' Protestant has given £ o0 towaj- ds. ihls Chapel: be rt knowh, therefore^ that Dr. Walsh is the Roman Catholic Bishop of the District, and his subscription to such a purpose is of course very naturiilly accounted for. , . ... THE BRUNSWICK CLUUS.— LA addition- two excelleiit letters of Lord Kenyon, we liave ffis week the gratification of inserting a reply from another firm and zealous advocate of the Protestant Cause, the Duke of Newcastle. We need do little more than refer our readers . to the Constitutional doctrines there so abiy" advocated,- to excite their attention to the necessity which at this time exists, that tiie Citizens of this loyal City should be foremost, as they always hitherto have beeh, in expressing their feelings on this momentous subject, and the Consequences which they would justly dread, if the unconditional emancipation was granted, which the Roman Catholics now ( Temard. That the Editors of the Liberal Press deprecate the formation of these Clubs, is to lis a most convincing reason tiiat their establish- ment is necessary^ and that they fear the re- action which will ensue, and the revival of lhat determined spirit throughout the country, which is about to bo expressed. The Kent Meeting has nobly led the way, and has shewn what may: be done, ifjthe fri? nds of the Constitution will, bestir themselves^ It has been well and truly said^ that " the time is come when silence is culpable — when apathy is a crime-—' when fear and indolence are proofs of aposfacy. It is no. v manifest that he who is not with us is against us ; and that those who . prefer trusting rather to their neigh- bours1 than their own exertions — who prefer being- asleep when it is the duty of all to be awake—' When it is the. duty of all to be active, vigilant, aud uneompromising-^ are the worst enemies of those institutions which they pretend to revere. 1'-^ Bristol Statement of the different Regiments stationed in Ireland at the preseut period, with their respective quarters:—• Second Drag; Guards, Caher 1st Dragoons, Cork ; ditto, Dublin v 3d Lt Drag.

At the late sale of the Duke or Marlborough's effects at White Knights, there was a strong com- petition between his Majesty and the Duke of Wellington for the celebrated portrait of the. Great Duke of Marlborough. His Grace was , the pur- chaser at 80 guineas. A few days since, two men, calling themselves Richard and Thomas Eason, offered a mare and gelding for sale at Tiddenham, near Chepstow, under circumstances which led to a strong suspicion that the animals were stolen. The mare haying been taken possession of by a farmer who had bargained for her, until such time, as he * cou! d. obtain satisfactory information, the fellows thought it best to cut and run witij the horse ; they were pursued, however, with much diligence, and apprehended, but one of them again succeeded in escaping for . a. short time from the place of their temporary confinement, but he was, luckily, finally secured. Intelligence of the circumstance having been promptly disseminated, the horses were found to have been stolen from two farmers in the neighbourhood of Wallingford, Berks, and the two men have been fully committed for trial. ... . i STEAM ENTGINE.— We have much pleasure in stating, upon undoubted authority, that a gigantic step - is about .- to be taken in perfecting this noble machine, whereby a saving of about three- quarters of the fuel at present required will be made. The patent, to secure the benefit of this important, discovery to the inventor, is in the course of being obtained, an I we understand that several of our merchants are warmly interested in it.— Liverpool Courier. American papers to the 2d inst. ha ve brought from every part of the Union strong and just complaints of the injury which they suffer from the imposition of the new Tariff*. So universal is the feeling against it, even in those quarters whose representatives voted for its enactment, under the idea of serving their con- stituents, that its repeal is everywhere joyfully anticipated. The reported appearance of an infectious disease at Gibraltar, is unfortunately confirmed ; and it is ascertained to be the yellow fever, of a malignant description. The gates of the garrison were fin illy closed ou the 5th inst. The Spaniards had placed an extensive cordon sanitalre on the lines to prevent communication, and the local authorities refined ail vessels the usual clean bills of health from the 5th. It is therefore to be now treated as an infected place, and the merchant vessels touching at the port will be liable to strict quarantine.

SALOPIAN JOURNAL ® AMP COURIER OF WALE^ LLTTER OF THE LUKE OF NEWCASTLE TO LORD KEN YON. September 18,1828. MY DEAR LORD, That I did not answer ybur first appeal nks beeh a Sufficient reproach to me; I should he ashamed of fuyself if t con Id see your second, without making a public avowal of my entire conctirrehCe in your senti- lWnts, ard that. I heartily back your spirited appeal to our fellow Protestants Of the British empire. 1 aui not fiibre given to dilation with my pen than i am by word of mouth ; 1 never use either but by compulsion j and il 1 could now conscientiously avoid the labodr and the consequent, discomfort, 1 have every inclinat ion and every motive but Ol'ie, for con- sulting; my ease* and mdulginjj in that privacy which, perhaps, may be most, congenial t' 6 me. Such a bourse, ho> u vei:, consistently ^ fith what I conceive to be mv duty, 1 cannot find if. within me to pursue. 1 must. embark in the Smie vessel vfcith you, and sink or swim in our endeavour 10 preserve the religion vliich we love, the constitution which < ve reverence. Iii your own emphatic words, I painfully confess that we do " live in times when every man who values principles should depend on his own exertions, and not on those of princes, prelates, nobles, poli- ticians, or parliament." It is but too true, that such is, in reality, the case; or, in other wordn, that if we wish to preserve oftr religion and our laws, each must use his individual power to defend preventively or absolutely the constitution Which he has sworn to preserve inviolable in church and state. It may sound finely in a republican ear, to be told that all are bound to participate in the management of the national interests, and that the will of the people should direct the affairs of the country. I cannot subscribe to such dangerous doctrine as a maxim ; I see the mischief of a popular assumption of the executive, and I would, if 1 could, avoid it; hut, unfortunately, we have no choice now; we are driven into a corner, and we must either make a desperate effort to preserve our constitution, or lose it altogether. Deserted or unsupported by those in power, we < ee ourselves on the brink of ruin ; and is ft to be imagined that we can or will ignominiuusJy abandon our sacred duty, and basely yield either to our betrayers or our enemies ? An appeal to the nation is our only resource; it must, be made; and the voice of the nation must decide whether Protestantism or popery shall prevail; whetl e by treading- in the footsteps of our fore fathers, we will maintain the Protestant, ascendancy, which their practical wisSdom established for us— or w hether, to our eternal shame, to our certain punish- rlient, we will sec the Jesuits triumphant, and the idolatrous worship of papists' openly displayed throughout this now Protestant land. In short, the nation nuist decide whether these kingdom* shall be at once the cradle and the citadel of Protestantism and rei'l lU^ prty, or the hot- bed of popery, with its scarlet trr^ n of mental and political despotism. We are now arrived at the period when we are compelled to jud^ e and act for ourselves; the banc and antidote are berore us; our choice must be shade : we must now decide whether we will range ourselves with Protestants' or papists— whether we will serve God or Mammon. Nothing is to be expected from parliament, because nothing- is to be done by the government; nothing- is to be done by the government, because neutrality, Conciliation, and modern liberality, arc still ruling- the deliberations of the Cabinet. Thus the honesty and virtuous teeling- for which this country has long- Been renowned aVe decreed to be neutralised and deadened ; religion and Morality, principle, patriotism, and the boasted constitution, are doomed to perish from sheer inanition. But w ill our fellow Protestants commit this suicide ? Why is the natiori listless, apathetic, and dead, to every patriotic iriipuls" ? Why are virtue and vice, rig- ht and wrong, amalgamated as it. were, and so blended together, iTfixt the one and the other possess all equal value? or rat Her' I should correct myself, and say, why arc tlte bad <| iihlities predominant? why are the iiigiicst and noblest attributes of human riiit. nre outraged by a prescribed submission to bad measures, \ ricioiisAsystCmfif, and detestable principles? The cause, 1- fear, may lie thunexplained. For years pfcst the government of the country have thought, tit blindly to - A< lopf, and obstinately to persevere in, a system of neutrality which has gradually produced the most deadly evil that Can befal a nation— a loss of principle. It is" iti vain to say that this or that cause has produced this or flvat. had effect; thai the march of intellect, the spread Cf' kuoNvledge, or philo- sophy, or liberality, or aiiy Of tb< ise jarg'Otiic expli- eatives the very sound of which' makes the heart sick, have brought, the nation into its' present state ;— it is not so : we must put the saddle on the right horse, and I assert openly that* tire government has done the work, ' there may, indeed, have been a predisposition to these delusive theories on the part » » f some restless speculators; but to the govern- ment belongs the blame, and the government must bear it". hi TS07 the voice of the nation rejected an adioi nistrutton, strong in talent:, but weak in the possession of ( he public confidence. An overwhelming feeling confirmed the power of its successor, which wiis proudly and triumphantly favoured by popular sup- port, because it was supposed to be purely Protestant to be pledged to oppose popery, and to support tin national affections, the national hiterests. Nohly and most beneiicially did this administration execute its duty, opposing popery, upholding- Protestantism, auppoHing- the national interests, cherishing the est blished religion, encou. iaginj; national morality as well by its example as by it> s- care, boldly defend- ing- the constitution and preserving- it uninjured in church or state from the united attacks of dangerous and desperate men, and, above all things, keeping this leading object in view— that it is the . duty of a government to act towards the nation, as a good fidher of a family would act towards his family, namely; b\ the establishing n£ of public virtue founded upon public principle. The admirable 1 erceval knew wlell by* experience, and thus foresaw, that, because it is worthless,' nothing can be lasting that is not founded on principled virtue, that no nalion can endure and prosper w ithout it, that other nations had suffered the Everest" retributive justice for their national crimes', ami that : « e ev id cutty owed our comparative exemption from the horrors which the divine vengeance poured on those devoted countries, to our own comparative exemption from the vices a- nd corruption which prevailed in them. Taking for his motto that, honesty is the best policy; the . straight- forward, intelligible, and defined policy of the mi- nister, gained the applause even of his opponents whilst his* friends, sure of his support, and encourage- ment, in their endeavours to promote his generous measures for the public welfare, acted with spirit, union, and confidence. Thus w e continued blessed with an administration which acted upon known principles, until in 1812 the same hand which deprived Mr. Perceval of life extinguished also the light of the administration. We lost Our virtuous, exemplary, and highly- g ifted minister, and from that time our moral decline com- menced. Then began that acc uracil system of li- beralism, neutrality, and conciliation-— right; and w rong, virtue and vice, the friend and the enemy of his country were tf> he confounded, distinctions were to be . levelled, all was to betid to expediency, and principle must not stand in the way of policy. Could any one mistake what would be the sure consequence of such a vile system ? Assuredly, as it Has happened, it would follow, that the country would be gradually demoralized. What before seemed odious, or immoral, no longer disgusted; all ancient institutions began to be considered as rubbish; history as an old almanack; experience was to be east, away; all that is valuable to us was to be vilified, derided, and trampled upon; and, finally, liberality enthroned itself in the chiefs » at to influence and direct the couneils of the nation. The country now found itself w ithout guides, although it had a grovermnent; the high places were filled, it is true, but not. by governor*.- The executive was in other l andsinstead of resisting innovation,, they, yielded t > it,— instead of leading public opinion, they bowed to its counterfeit— and thus fjyaekery, deceit, and* hollow pretension, gained so much strength that their opposite* were obliged to hide their diminished heads. Then followed the effects of this contemptible system. Toodepraved, 1 he disaffected, and the self opinionated, we always tHe most noisy and turbulent; they cla- moured ; they made themselves to be heard : finding their strength, and presuming- upon their acquired consequence, they artfully contrived, through the administration,- in fact, to rule the state; and the ; dministration preferring place and irresponsible Ira q ail lit y to a noble rejection of either, when prin- ciple is at stake, suffered our constitut ional excellence, and all that lias been hitherto deemed most sacred or most valuable, to perish, for want of encouragement and protection; whilst the designing libera list gloried in his sdccessj and chuckled at the impending mis- fortunes which he well knew would result from such a total revolution in the government aiid constitution of the country. I have endeavoured, as much as possible, to abbre- viate and compress this description into the Smallest cOnipass compatible with an intelligible statement of my view Of this cardinal point. If we know where error lies, we may Correct, perhaps eradicate it. 1 have undisguised! y stated what I conceive to be its origin, growth,, and maturation; and ! have for this purpose attempted to sketch my view Of cause and effect up to the present time. I shall ofnit all farther comment, and proceed at once to the change Of ministry in January last. Every heart beat, with high expectation— evei; y patriot rejoiced in the anticipated appointment of the Duke of Wellington to the head of affair? The lover of his country fondly hoped that the time had at last arrived when an end * vould be put to the hateful system of literalism, neutrality, 4iid concilia- tion ; he made sure that the high character which had formerly distinguished the nation would be recovered, and that in the place of national demo- ralization, a new system would be established calcu - lated to restore the national energy, by an undeviat- ing rectitude of principle*' the character of which would be stamped by the uncompromising character of the government. We all know how the result fulfilled our anxious expectations. The last session of parliament I consider to have been by far the most disastrous of any in the memory ofn. au; it was pre- eminently stained by liberalising religion,— and this I believe from my conscience to be a fatal stab to the Established Church, as well as to the peace of the country and the existence of the constitution. By an utter dereliction of principle we have sought to appease those who ar£ actuated by no principle but a hatred of order; we thus depress and disgust our most valuable friends, we invest our enemies w ith the power taken from our friends* and, to fill up the measure of our misdoing, we offend our God in the disowning of Christianity. 1 simply ask, if we desert our God, will lie not desert us? will he not be avenged upon stveii a nation as this? An inaction totally inexplicable possesses the government. We see rebellion stalk through the land with impunity— conciliation still reigns in our councils. The popish association, day after day, audaciously asserts its omnipotence, and proclaims aloud that it will yield toYio other authority. One of their members, a fellow who years since deserved to be hanged for his treason, has, through this means, been chosen to sit in a British Protestant Parliament, although a papist ;— itinerant popish. demagogues are roaming through the country spouting sedition and treason;— and who offers the slightest opposition to all this? No one. What, I ask, is to prevent traitors from rising in every market place of every town of Great Britain, to vomit forth their pestilent harangues? or are such w retches only to b^ allowed this exclusive privilege in Ireland ? Shame, shame on the government which can for an hour, for a minute, permit such dangerous excesses to be practised with blind immunity. F am unwilling to inculpate ouf chief minister, because I had rested my last principal hope on him ; my expec- tation was that Nelson's memorable recommendation would not be lost upon hi in/ arid that England would see him at all risks, and under all circumstances, do his duty. Let us hope that a mistaken view has alone led him into so vast an error. But when this error is exposed, it will be uupardoiiabky it will be criminal, if the remedy be not instantly applied. In the midst of this tremendous storm and danger of shipwreck, we are told not to fear— that we have men for our ministers who will guard us from all danger. I may be called a very timid mariner, but I cannot prevent myself from crying out; I loudly assert that the ship is in the utmost danger, aud as yet the helmsman has done nothing Visibly to preserve the murmurs of a portion of the crew have burst into open mutiny; and nothing but the . prompt energy of the Captain, or the united efforts of the remainder of the crew, can save it from destruction. Figure apart, imminent danger is at the door of the constitution; something must instantly bfe done, or it may be destroyed. We must no longer wait in expectation of tardy assistance; we must act for ourselves; and if the ministers will co operate with us, so much the better; but we must not, we will not be sacrificed. We are assured that the. Duke of Wei ling toil is true to our cause, but that lie dares not to act of himself— that he wishes to be backed by popular support. 1 am quite willing to believe that he does continue true to the Protestant cause, and to the preservation of those interests which are as dear to us as life itself; but if he be true, wherefore this unac countable inaction ? We know that he must be fearless; but, if fearless', how can it be explained that he dares not act upon his own ministerial responsi- bility, but requires the popular aid to attempt that w hich is peculiarly the duly of the executive ? , If my positions are as true as I firmly believe them ; to be, then indeed have I made out a case of ex- tremity, and it is high time that the nation should ; l> estir itself, and do that for itself which others either fear or refuse to do for it. Let the nation look forward a little to the future; let it consider what must very shortly be the inevita- ble corisccjuence of the present frightful state of things ; it will then sec the danger which stares us in the face; arid if it is desirous of preserving our glorious Constitution, of upholding religion, of main- taining the laws] rights, and liberties of our country, so as in some measure to merit the favour of God and man, then, 1 would say, let the nation arouse from its lethargy ; let it si a rid forth in the panoply of its natural excellence; let it declare its intentions; let it demand that the popish association shall be in- stantly annihilated; let it demand tlfaf the VtfiCe of treason shall be stifled ; let it demand that all popish establishments, of whatever nature, whether jesuits1 colleges, or monasteries, c. & c. shall be. immediately- abolished ; let them demand that no Roman Catholics shall vote at elections ; and finally let them require a full arid undisputed Protestant ascendancy within these realms. This, however, must not be delayed ; tiriie presses, ; and the enemy is at the gate; the unanimous voice of the nation should be heard in a tone w hich < an not be mistaken, and our invaluable Constitution will be safe against her most inveterate- enemies, whether secret or avowed. You, my dear lord, have manfully sounded the warning- trumpet.; you have ably, appealed to our Protestant countrymen ; 1 trust that they w ill as man- fully answer to the call. They must unite in Protestant associations from one end of the country to the other; and as parliament is not sitting, they should address their Protestant King; and may God protect our country, and prosper their patriotic exertions. I have thus endeavoured, Very imperfectly I ad- mit, to describe my notions' on this momentous subject. 1 have written freely; why should I not? Some one must, speak out; my duty and my interest compel me to conceal nothing, and in this respect I acquit myself of- any deficiency. I have extenuated where I could do sO with propriety ; I have set down nought in malice or hostility, for I entertain none. Perilous times require strong remedies and home truths; you will perceive that. I liave not flinched from recommending the one, and stating the other. 1 am well aware that, in doing this I am subjecting myself to severe animadversionsbut I am heedless of consequences to myself, if I may ever so slightly benefit the great cause which is at stake. My anxiety also to prove my gratitude to you by answer- ing to your appeal, has been an additional incite- ment ; and thus 1 have been doubly urged forward to the completion of my unpleasant task. I have been led into far greater length than I at first contemplated; and it is now fit that I should assure you of the esteem with which 1 am, my dear lord.

A TUADESMAK. SHBE\ VSBI'RY, SHPT. 22, 1828. THE ROMAN CATHOLIC QUESTION. As was to be expected, the manly efforts of Lord Kenyon, the Duke of Newcastle, the Marquis of Chandos, and the other noblemen and gentlemen who have so nobly stepped forward in the cause of Pro- testant Ascendancy, have excited the alarms of those who have hitherto been the supporters of every open and every insidious attack upon the Constitution. Happily, the parties are known, and> m reference to their present, designs, The Standard has the following remarks:— .. <( Upon the subject of public meetings and petitions we would say' © tie or two words. We observe that some of the Provincial Popish Journals are trying to sneer down the efforts of the Protestants who wish to ' collect the public sentiment upon the Popish question. Sneering is a little out of place in this case ; fools are the proper objects of that indication of contempt, and the vvorld sees v: ho ate the fools vow— whether the men who sorS"" that half a dozen Roman Catholic members admitted into Parliament would fully satisfy the Roman Catholics, or We, and those like us, who argued that the malignant ambition of Popery was boundless! But the pro- V6\ tery. men are not only fools; but, since* the Clare election, they know that they have been for thirty years the most exemplary blockheads upon this question ( ant^ upon most other questions too— but this by the way) that ever moved the contempt arid laughter of right- thinking men. Hence, like other detected dunces, they try tO face out their blunders with a giggle arid a grin at all who have not been disposed to blunder with" them. " In their confessed unwillingness that the p'dblic should meet upon the Roman Catholic question, the pro- Popery men make one serious acknowledgment, viz. that the public feeling is against them. And what a preposterous inconsistency do the blockheads manifest in the kind of arguments which they address to their countrymen to dissuade them from avowing this feeling. ' The question ( say they) is in the hands of the Legislature, and to petition against Popery is but playing the game of designing men in the back ground. 1 And these dissuasives are offered by the very men who for thirty years have been molesting the public quiet by convening meetings upon any imaginable subject. Col. Wardle, Mr. Hunt, Baron Bergami, Queen Caroline— every body, any thing, no matter how low or worthless he, she, or it might be, was an excuse for a public meeting;— a solemnity which they would now tell us is too grave and precious to be squandered upon an object so unimportant as the preservation of the Constitution— upon a topic so trilling as a question which, though it has engaged the attention of parliament for a quarter of a century, has, within the last three, nior ths, assumed a shape utterly subversive of every- argument that ever was employed, in its favour— a shape, the terrors of which, we will venture to say, were, up to the month of July, never adequately anticipated t> y frierid or eneriiy. Would that they were now adequately appreciated by those whose very silence has been Cited triumphantly as evidence of a concurrence in principles which their hearts abhor. " We implore our fellow- subjects to reflect that the time for exertion is fast slipping away from them. Parliament may meet in November; and whether the great question shall or shall not be then decided, the hitherto pro- Popery men, who have seen, as every man has seen, the error of their views, will, with all the other neutrals, receive their bias upon the meet- ing of parliament; and it is from the public voice that they must receive it. " A public voice" as we have said before, " there wiU be ;, r but whether it is to be pronounced by the people of England, or for them by Mr. O'Connell and his Irish hodmen, mu- t depend upon the exertions made within one little month. And what is the amount of the exertion which we ask? Give one day, and affix one signa- ture to what conveys your own feelings. We say it in the humble and affectionate spirit of the Syrian captain's servant— would to God that we may say it with the same success!—' If thou hadst been com- manded to do some great thing, wouldst thou not have done it? how much rather when it is said to thee, Wash, and be clean V " RAILROADS The extension of the system of Railways is probably n principal cause that not a single canal bill for Eng- land passed through Parliament during the late Session. The violent opposition at first made to the establishment of railways, by the. cfinal proprietors, subsided into a calmer estimate, not only of the impossibility of success- fully opposing any system if its excellence be satis- factorily demonstrated, but of the peculiar advantage of railways for the transport of light goods ill particular. It is thus ihat the Marquis of Stafford, who is deeply interested in the Duke of Bridgewater's canals, has iiot only withdrawn his opposition to the Liverpool and Manchester railway, but bus become. one of the largest shareholders in that magnificent . undertaking. The bills for railways which during the last Session have passed through Parliament tire, the Avon and Gloiices- tershiie, the Canterbury and Whitstable, the Clarence ( Durban)), the Commercial . Road, the Liverpool aud Manchester, 11. fe Llanelly, the Nantlle, and the Stockton and Darlington. Each of these undertakings promises the n. ost satisfactory results to the proprietors and to the country. The shares of the Liverpool and Man- chester are already at 38 premium. This is unquestion- ably the finest enterprise which the nation has for a long time witnessed ; and as the experiment is, in a great degree- novel in its details, 1 and as we have had an opportunity of personally inspecting this magnificent work, a brief account of its actual progress may not he disagreeable to our renders. The tola! quantity of merchandise passing between Liverpool aud Manchester is 1200 tons per day. This immense aggregate tonnage is at present subject to all the delays incidental lo the river, navigation. The travelling between Liverpool and Manchester is upon the same extensive scale.. The line of railway passes through a rich and extensive coal- district, in full work- ing, of w hich a great proportion is brought to market by land carriage : — the consumption of Coal in Liver- pool aud Manchester is one million tons per annum. It • thus appears that the means of affording employment to such a line of communication as the Liverpool and Manchester; railway, are altogether, enormous ; and when the rapidity and certainty of the conveyance by locomotive engines are added to the ad vantages of a shorter road evert than thai 6y which the mail'travels, it is evident that the establishment of this railway be- tween the great metropolis of the cotton manufacture and that poit which receives a gienter supply, of the raw material than all the ports of the world pt/ t toge- ther, is an object, not only of local utility, but of the highest national importance. The bill before Parliament in the late Session was for amending a part of the line of this railway.. The directors appear to have conciliated every opposition of the proprietors of land, by theii prudence and forbear ance ; aud they have had the ra're merit, iu many cases, of Convening opposition into warm support. The works are now proceeding with great rapidity ; and it is anticipated thai the whole will be completed iu less thau'vo years from the present time. The railway [• commences at the port of Liverpool, at a point in direct communication With the King's and Queen's Doek. s. The line passes under the town of Liverpool by a tunfiel and inclined plane. This magnificent archway, sixteen feet high and- twenty- two feet wide, is cut through the solid rock f" i the enormous length of 2248 yards, the inclined plane rising one foot in forty- nine. The steep ascent of Liverpool is thus avoided, and all inietference with the general business of the streets is thus effectu- ally prevented. The excavations of this stupendous work have been going on at several points at the same li< rjf\; and the precision with which the junctions of the different parts have been effected, in some cases not varying two inches, offers a most remarkable example i; of the certainty of scientific arrangement. Tlie road through the tunnel, which we thus see is about a mile and a quartei long, comes into the day- light ut the top • of the high hill ( Edge- hill). looking, ( low n upon Liver- pool. A deep excavation through the elevated ground beyond this point, offers an interesting example of the triumph of man over. physical, difficulties. Several miles onward, the roadway passes over a moss; and here, by a steady and cautious system of cuttings and embankments, the railway has been laid down success- fully upon a soil which appeared as treacherous as the sands of the desert. The valley through, which tie river Saukey runs is crossed by an enormous via- duct consisting of embankments and arches built upon piles of extraoidinary magnitude. Hence, to Manchester, the line does not present any peculiar difficulties. Ti whole cost of this grand work will be about £ 600,000 —- London Magazine. ftSiscetlasuous SntetUgencs.

The parish- officers of the metropolis arid its vicinity h- ul a meeting last week', at Aldermanbury, to devise means to employ the paupers in agricultural pursuits, . as the practice of employing them in manufactures had been productive of mischief. Tlie price of the good.*', the produce of pauper labour, was much below what the regular manufacturer could bring them to the market at. Picking oakum and breaking stones debased their minds. At Camberwell, the paupers set fire to the house in which they were employed; and at Islington they threw the stones into the Canal. It was mentioned that madder aud liquorice might be cultivated with advantage by pauper labour. A resolution was agreed to, recommending the cultiva- tion of the soil. There is now at Brislington, at the residence of Mrs. Susan March Phlllipps, molher- in- law to the Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry ( formerly the resi deuce of the late Edward Rolle Clayfield, Esq.), a splendid Agave Americana, commonly called the Aloe, which has thrown up a flower stem about 25 feet high, having 18 branches,- which hear from 800 lo 5) 00 flower buds, and are expected to be in bloom in about ten or twelve days. The flower stem made its appearance about lOtli June last, and has been increasing in height ever since. Mrs. P. has had a glass frame, 30 feet high, erected over it, to facilitate its bloom, as likewise a. staircase and plat- form, to approach near the height of the flowers, for the accommodation of visitors.

THE BRUNSWICK Ci. un.— Dublin, Sept. 12.— Almost every Protestant of a respectable station in society lias either become a member of this club, or signified his intention to do so at the earliest oppor- tunity. Calculating the number of members to amount, before the end of the present year, to 40,000, and that appears to be below the mark— there will he a fund of £ 80,000 in bank, ready, at a minute's warning, to be applied to the object of the club. The alarm which prevails amongst the agitators of the " adverse faction" is really ludicrous. They see at length that the spirit of the Protestants " hath not been dead, though it hath slept;" and that if the Catholic Association is to proceed, with its accus- tomed ferocity, to assail the rights of those who have been too long quiescent, it will not have all the fun to itself. If Mr. O'Connell threatens to buy up the judgments affecting the lands of Protestants, here is a resource against his impotent vengeance. If Mr. Luwlcss rides in his coach and four under arches of laurels, and amid troops of smiling damsels, the delcgat. < of the Brunswick Club will be hailed by the timid Protestants of the south as their preservers, and by the hardy yeomen of the north as the heralds of victory. Already several branch associations have been formed ; and, ere long, all Ireland, to borrow a favourite phrase from Mr. Shiel, will be organized. Those who are familiar with the history of the Irish Volunteers may form some idea of the enthusiasm which now tills the Protestant gentry in Ireland, We cannot be too thankful to the Marquis of Chandos, who projected, nor to Mr. Boyton, who has matured, so efficient an organ for calling that feeling into action. It will be the . means, under Providence, of preserving the constitution from detriment, and the country from civil war The weather in the northern provinces of the United States has, it appears, been very similar to our own. A Salem Paper says it would be best described by an extract from the Dutchman's weather diary in Batavia, " Had a dondei- sdorm vor last tree week, and deu set in voi- settle rain." In our paper of the 6ih of May last, we noticed six apiaries at Moulton Chapel, near Spalding, which Mr. Thomas Nutt, of that hamlet, manages on his humane and admirable principle for taking the honey without destroying the bees. We now present a correct statement of the extraordinary produce and gathering of the apiaries:— viz. No. 1, 300lbs.; No. 2, 2i6lbs.; No. 3, 194lbs.; No. 4, 1701bs.; No. 5, 162lbs.; No. 6, 150lbs.; total, 11021bs. These extraordinary stocks of united bees afforded the above large quantity of honey, besides living in the midst of plenty themselves, stationary in their domiciles, and prepared to labour for another year.— Stamford Mercury. COMMERCE.— The commerce of London and of Liverpool form objects of wonder and eiivy to the civilized world. The trade of each port is very different in its nature ; and thus the tonnage of the One may increase, without any diminution of that of the other. The Pool of London— indeed the whole course of the river, from Blackwall to the Tower— is, perhaps, one of the most splendid spectacles of modem times. The almost uninterrupted range of warehouses and quays— The East India, the West India, the London, and the St. Katharine's Docks— the coasting and other small vessels anchored in the Fool— the lotig succession of steam- boats and ships arriving from, or departing to, all the ports of the bid and new worlds— these are circumstances which fill the mind with a sense of the vastness of our com- mercial wealth and industry. The trade of the port of London has more than doubled in the last thirty years. But the port of Liverpool offers a greater condensation of commercial objects, and is, to a certain extent, more imposing. From the magnificent expanse of the Mersey you look upon a quay of about two miles and a half in extent, presenting an uninterrupted succession of docks, and piers, and towering ware- houses. The river is constantly alive with steam- packets crossing to the opposite shore, or going out to the various ports of Ireland, br Scotland, or Wales ; while ever and anon some stately merchantman arrives from her long journey across the Atlantic, and rushes into the harbour, like a bird seeking her nest. From one extent of these magnificent docks to the other, you may walk without interruption. A merchant in London seldom sees his vessel; but at Liverpool, the adventurous speculator hurries down from the exchange to the quay, when the distant signal has told him that his ship is coining into the port, and he welcomes her to her home with a proud feeling, which the ordinary coldness of money- getting cannot deaden.— The new dock, for the completion of which a bill to borrow additional sums was passed in the late session of Parliament, is a continuation of that splendid line of accommodation for shipping, which has been growing with the extraordinary growth of the trade of Liverpool. This single dock has already cost more than a million ; and, extensive as the other docks are, it is no common case for vessels to ride in the Mersey, which is often dangerous, from the im- possibility of finding other accommodation. The trade of Liverpool has more than doubled in the last twelve years.— The revenue of customs,' which this port contributes to the national stock, is four millions annually; and its export trade is the largest in the empire, larger even than that of London. On Saturday last, there were, shipped from Carron, for Woolwich, two cannons for throwing bombs; one of them is bored to project a bomb 12 inches in diameter, and the other for one of 10 inches. Two hundred bombs were sent along with each of the guns. Now, conceive a bomb of such a size, filled with small shot, first piercing a hole a foot wide iri a ship's side, and then exploding between decks, what horrible carnage and devastation it must produce! The largest of these cannon is 28 inches in diameter at the breech, and for beauty of workmanship, symmetry of parts, and the nicety with which the bombs are fitted to the bore of the pieces, they are not excelled, we think, by the most delicate piece of mechanism that we ever saw.— Stirling Journal. The rate of interest, in the year 1255, the fortieth year of Henry the Third, was fifty per cent, per annum, which was the highest rate ever known in England. The first Act of Parliament for regulating the interest of money lent in this kingdom, was passed in the year 1545, " the thirty- seventh of Henry the Eighth, by which it was fixed at' ten per" cent. On Wednesday, about half past two o'clock in the afternoon, two houses in F^ xetcr- strect, Catharine- street, Strand, fell to the ground with a tremendous crash, that alarmed the whole neighbourhood. One of the houses was formerly a public- house, called the " Blacknioor's Head," a notorious resort for thieves and characters of the worst description ; the other house was formerly a baker's shop, and both houses had been l" ng ago condemned as unsafe: Never- theless, the inmates of the house which was formerly the Blackmoor's Head," arid their lodgers, continued to reside in it rent - free ; and a report prevailed, long after the catastrophe had occurred, that both houses were full of lodgers. This, however, was fortunately not the case, the baker's house having been cleared some time before by legal ejectment. As soon almost as the shock had1 ceased, and before the dense cloud of dust which filled the air had subsided, Mr. Thurston, a tradesman in Catherine- street, and Ste- vens, one of the messengers of Bow- street Police- ofiice, were upon the ruins, and calling upon the gap- ing bystanders to assist them in rescuing the unfor- tunate beings who were shrieking and imploring assistance from beneath the still tottering ruins. For some minutes no one seemed inclined to risk his safety ; till Mr. Thomas, the constable, arrived, and he exerted himself exceedingly in keeping back the idle and curious crowds who pressed forward on all sides. In a very short time a number of the men employed in the sewer erecting in Catherine- street set to work with great expedition, removing the mass of rubbish which filled the streets. It was known that a carter, who was loading his cart with bricks in front of the houses, was under the ruins, and, after nearly half an hour's labour, he was found lying by his cart, quite dead. The horse in the cart was also on the ground, butjnot dead. A somewhat curious fatality appears to attend the case of this poor carter. His name was. Neeve, and he was in the service of Mr. Frost, builder, of Lambeth, and but a few minutes betbffe the accident he had got the consent of his superior, and had purchased wijh a sixpence the permission of another carter to drive home this cart, out of his turn, in order that he might attenil the funeral of his brother, which was to take place that evening ! He was a very athletic young man, and was shockingly disfigured about the head and face They carried his body to the White Hart public- house opposite. A carpenter, who was assisting Neeve, had sufficient presence of mind to crouch against the wheel of the cart, and was taken out uninjured. Whilst these persons were being sought for, others were exerting themselves in removing the rubbish about that part of the ruins where it was conjectured the wretched inhabitants must be lying. Mr. Callahan, who resides within two or three doors of the houses which fell, particularly distinguished himself ill his endeavours to rescue the poor crea tures. A large party of Bo-. v- stroet officers attended, and, aided by the parish constables, kept back the people, and rendered great assistance, and, after infinite exertion on the part of those whose names we have mentioned, and the labourers, five of the six persons who were ascertained to have been in the Blackmoor's Head at the time it fell were dug out of the ruins. Two of them— an old woman named Fraser, and a child of six months' old, named Stocks — were quite dead ; but the other three, a girl also named Stocks, a boy of nine or ten years of age, and a young woman, were alive, and not dangerously, although very much injured. They were immedi- ately carried to Covent- garden watch- house, where every attention and assistance was afforded them. The boy w as not extricated from his perilous situation for upwards of five hours ; but, during the whole of that tiaie, he conversed with the persons who were attempting his deliverance. At nine o'clock on Wed- nesday night one person still remained beneath the ruins, This was the mother of the infant and the girl. The latter, when she had partly recovered from her exhaustion on being herself taken out, besought tho « e around to get at her mother, who, she said, was very near to the place she ( the girl) was taken from, and was quite dead. The men redoubled their exertions to reach the spot, but did not succeed up to eight o'clock, when, being quite exhausted, they were drawn oft', and barriers erected at each end of the street, guarded by constables and officers, to keep off the crowd.

UHAMPTON RACES, 1829 — For the Pro- duce Stakes of 50 sovs, each, there are 9 sub- scribers.— For the Sweepstakes Of 100 sovs. each, 3 subscribers.— For the Stakes of 30 sovs. each, for colts and fillies foaled in 1826, 5 subscribers.— For the Tradesmen's Purse of 100 sovs. added to a Handicap Stakes of 25 sovs. each, 9 subscribers — For the Boycott Hunt Stakes, 11 subscribers.— For the Darlington Cup, to which £' 50 will be added" there are already 9 subscribers ; and it is expected, that before the period of entry tor the other Stakes and Plates shall have closed, they will be all well filled. In consequence of the great failure in most of our own fruits, those of foreign growth are importing in great quantities. Grapes from Holland, of the most delicious flavour and appearance, are selling at half the price of our own. A Correspondent from on board the Torch, Sand- heads, writes that on Sunday, the 9th ultimo, he was witness to the catching with the hook of 50 sharks, all of considerable size. The following are given as the dimensions of the largest of them, a female fish:— Full length, 10 feet 6 inches ; girth round the belly, 10 feet; extreme breadth across the jaw, 2 feet 4 inches; mouth open after she was cold, 1 foot 8 inches. She had six or seven rows of immense teeth, and the liver fielded 13j gallons of very clear good oil. In her belly were found alive 49 young ones, none of them less than 21 inches, nor more than 22 inches long.— The weight and strength, of this fish are described as immense, and, when caught and taken on board, its fury arid violence threatened death to all who came near it. After being killed it was put overboard for the nighl, to be kept till the next morning, when the jaws and back- bone were to have been taken out; but six or seven other sharks came up, and tore it to pieces.— liengal Chronicle. CRAZYOLOOY.— On Tuesday last, Mr. Henry Holmes, a surgeon, James Wood, a bricklayer, aud a lad named Charsley, were brought before the magistrates at Bow- street, charged with breaking open certain leaden coffins in the church of Hendon, and carrying away three heads of bodies therefrom, & c. It appears that permission had been given to. the father of the first named defendant to have their family vault opened, and, taking advantage of the permission, . MI'. Ilolmes, jun. committed the offence charged; but, what is most remarkable of all is, that one of the heads cut off aud carried away is that of his own mother,. The defence pleaded was Mr. Holmes's passionate ardour iu the pursuit of science, but it seems the parish are not disposed to admit that excuse, and mean to prosecute to extremity. The parties are, in the mean time^ held to bail. EXPLOSION ON BOARD A STEAM- PACKET.— Last Tuesday morning, the packet called the Duke of Sussex left Lincoln at the usual time, but another packet getting the lead, Mr. Smith's engine was put to full pressure; notwithstanding which, when lie arrived at Dogdyke, the other packet was above a mile ahead. Several passengers were waiting at Dogdylre for the purpose of embarking in the Duke of Sussex, and the engine was stopped to take them on board. During the time of this stoppage, the weight on the safety- valve ( above 171b.) was not removed ; consequently, the steam accumulated greatly, and from the action of the valve being im- peded, an unusual noise was heard in part of the packet. To discover what occasioned this, the engi- neer ( Mr. Smith's sor,, ar* ingenious young man about 20 years old) laid himself down upon the boiler, to listen whence the noise proceeded. The passengers being all on board, the wiord was given to set the engine a- going; but in attempting this, the boiler suddenly burst, with an explosion which was dis- tinctly heard at the distance of two miles. Terror and confusion paralyzed all who witnessed the scene for the first few moments; but on the alarm partially subsiding, it was discovered that the side of the boiler had been totally blown from its position, and thai from this huge receptacle great quantities of steam' and boiling water bad been ejected with a power which carried the scalding elerrieiit above 40 yards, knocking down some persons on shore, and slightly scalding others. There were 17 passengers on board at the time, most of whom were providentially so' situated as to escape serious injury. Miss Carsby, of Boston, was one of the passengers who embarked at Dogdyke, and she had not been on board above one minute at the time of the accident. She was in one of the rooms, seeing that her luggage was all safe; when the boiler burst, the steam instantly forced down the partitions, separating the rooms frOm the engine, and before she had time to escape, a volume of steam surrounded her. Immediately on the boiler bnrsting, the large iron chimney was thrown down, and the sides of the packet were stove in, when the vessel lurched, and c'ne side went down, the other being aground. The sufferers were immediately con- veyed ashore.— Lincoln Mercury. It appears that Cudoni, the well- known mounte- bank, has not had legerdemain enough to preserve himself from the fangs of the law. At the conclu- sion of Paisley fair, Cadoni finding his ordinary tricks beginning to fail, resorted to the expedient of a lot- tery, as a means of raising the wind , the prizes of which were a boll of meal or - 20s and a fat pig or 40s". The bait took, arid the shillings poured in. A bartier gained the meal, and the prize ticket for the pig was drawn by a female. Unfortunately, however, - the woman happened to be in debt, and her creditors became so clamorous for a share of the lucky wind- fall, that she was obliged to divulge the truth that she was employed by Cadoni's landlady to be the drawer of the prize, and to make sure of the mounte- bank knowing her, on holding up her hand for a prize, she was to wipe her mouth with her apron. This was done, and she immediately got the ticket' encircled with the words " the pig" She then ' mounted the stage, proclaimed her good fortune, and preferred the money in cash, which she got, but, according to previous concert, it was all given back 1 except 5s. for her trouble. The barber who got the meal ticket was also found to have acted a similar ' part in the deception. The parties having been con- gregated before the magistrates, Cadoni was fined in £ 15 or 90 days' confinement in Bridewell, his land- lady was amerced in £ 3. 18s. tid. and the poor barber w as fined in 15s.— Glasgow Chronicle. No Public Medicine ever attained so- high a repu- tation for tlie cure of Scrofulous and Scorbutic Com- plaints, as Mr. Liguum's Antiscorbutic Drops, aud this will not be wondered at when if Vs considered that his preparations have stood the te3t of experi- ence upwards of thirty years, and that he annually publishes a greater number, of respectable and well authenticated Cures than all other Medicine Pro. prietors together. Mr. L. however makes it a rule * never to publish a case without giving particular directions by which the individuals referred to may be found.— See our first page. BANR'U- PTS, SI'.
