Dispatches were received at the Foreign Office this morning from the Hon. Robert Gordon at Constan tinople, dated the 12th ult. four days later than the former ; and from Lord Cowley at Vienna, dated Aug. 27. At the date of the dispatches from the Turkish capital, it appears, notwithstanding the asser- tions of. the French papers, that nothing hkd been definitively settled respecting the Greek question, though the negotiations were still going forward. Exertions were making to levy fresh troops, hut with indifferent, success; and it was not expccted that Adrianople could resist the attaik of the Russian army, although it was said that General Diebjtsch could not bring more than 35,000 men against it. It was also generally reported that the Russian Com- mander had delayed his advance towards the capital, in order, if possible, to intercept tbe Grand Vizier, who had left Choumla in the hope of relieving Adrianople. As late as the 12th ult. no negotiator had left Constantinople for the Russian head quarters. The Prussian State Gazette has brought us some official details from General Diebitscfi, by which it appears that on the 6th ult. he had not yet quitted his camp at Aidos, andthat hisadvanced posts, instead of having reached Kirk- Kilissi, had not proceeded beyond Faki, which is only half Way to that |> lace. IT is evident from other accounts that his hesitation was occasioned by the movements of. the Grand Vizier, who had certainly quitted Choumla, and was ma- noeuvring through the passes of the Little Balkan, to gain Selimno and return to Adrianople. Meanwhile, the people of the country submitted quietly to the Russians, and gave up their arms. In Asia, General 1' askewitsch had sent out two expeditions, one to the fortress of Choriss on his left, and the other to Bai- bourdi on his right, a fortified town nearly halfway to Trebisond ; both of which had proved successful. Accounts direct from the Havam ah have been received to the 27th of July ; and as they bring no news of fhe expedition against Mexico since its sail- ing, it is conjectured the squadron has proceeded direct to Vera Cruz. The accounts from Mexico state that considerable alarm prevails there on account of the expedition, and that the force of Santa Anna was marching upon Vera Cruz to repel the threatened attack. € t) e Salopian iournal.

MANOR OF HIRAETHOG.— Doe dem. Hart, v. Wynne.'—' This was an action of ejectment, by which the lessor of the plaintiff sought to establish his claim to the freehold of a considerable tract, of waste land within the defendant's manor of Hiraethog, in the county of Denbigh. This cause had been twice tried before— once at Shrewsbury where Mr. Wynne, of Voelas, tbe present defendant, obtained a general verdict, and again at Ruthin, where the present plaintiff obtained a partial verdict.— It now came on a third time, before Mr. Baron Vaughan and a Special Jury, at Gloucester, on Wednesday morning, and occupied the Court and Jury until four o'clock on Monday afternoon last, when the Jury, after consult ing about a quarter of an hour, returned a verdict for defendant, thus confirming the vcrdict obtained by Mr. Wynne at Shrewsbury, on the first trial. THE THEATRE, Bridge Place, will be opened, for a short Season, on Tuesday next, under the manage- ment of Mr. Bennett, whose Company will, by their performances, add to the attractions of the Race week. We have authority to state to the public that tbe COALPORT CHINA COMPANY are about establishing a branch of their extensive China concern, combined with Glass and Earthenware, upon the spacious pre- mises in Princess- street lately occupied by Messrs Pritchards and Lloyd; where a large assortment of the most approved and fashionable articles in each department will be constantly kept for sale upon the most liberal terms. We find the shew- rooms are in a state of forwardness, and will be open to the public in our Race Week. In our Fair yesterday, there was a good supply of Sheep, but fat ones did not obtain 6d. per lb.— Pigs were considerably lower than at Ike last Fair. At Bristol Leather Fair, which commenced on the 1st instant, there was a considerable supply of Strong Harness Hides, which experienced a great. reduction in price. Common Dressing Hides, and Light English and Welsh Skins were in large supply, a considerable quantity of' which still remains on sale. Light Foreign Dressing Hides and Foreign Kips were in great abundance, and scarcely saleable at any rate. The supply of Best Pattern Skins was small, but fully equal to the demand. Spanish and English Horse Hides were scarce, and sold readily at the annexed quotation. Sole Leather appears fully to have maintained its prices, indeed some trifling advance may be noticed on prime heavy" Butts. The follow- ing is a list of the Prices :— Heavy Crops, I8d.

At the Chester City Sessions, which commenced on Tuesday, the following cause was tried. T. AN n vv. JONES V. C. T. CI. AR K B. This was an action brought for the recovery 6f £ 12$ the value of a bark- mill. Mr. R G. Temple stated the Case to the jurj. The plaintiffs were millwrights, living near Wrefthatn. The defendant wrote several letters to thefn respect- ing a bark- mill* rthd ultimately gave an order for one, the same as one previously made for a Mr. Burton, to be sent to Mr. Everall, of Wem. The order was obeyed, and the mill sent off according to the direc- tions. What the defence would be he could noi say. Letters were put in, which pfoved the order of a mill without a cutter. John Hughes, a workman of Messrs. Jones, proved making the mill aa ordered, which was afterwards sent to Ml-, Everall's, at Wem. It was of as good workmanship as any ever made. Miss Jones, daughter of one of the plaintiffs, directed the mill to defendant, and saw it sent by the carrier to Wem in June, 182S, but did not know what became of it after it was so delivered. Mr. Edwards, of Chester, had seen the mill, and it was a good one — Several other witnesses gave evi- dence to the safne effect. Mr. Jackson, clerk to the firm of the late Coffin and Co. carriers, of Wrexham, proved that the mill was received from the plaintiffs and forwarded to Chester, aud from thence to Wem, by boats. The same mill was afterwards returned back by the same con veyance to Chester. Mr. Temple, for the defendant, contended that no delivery had been proved, and therefore the plaintiff should he nonsuited.— For the plaintiffs, it was held that proof had been given of the mill having been for- warded by the usual carriers between the parties, which was sufficient. The Recorder decided that sufficient proof of delivery had been tendered. If the mill had been lost, the defendant would have been entitled to au acliou for recovery, and not the plain- tiffs. Mr. Temple addressed the jurv to the effect that no evidence of delivery had been offered, A delivery to the carrier was not a delivery to the defendant; He then called Mr. Edward Beviu, who was employed by Mr. John Everall, of Wem, to put up a mill without a cutter, on the. 23d of June, 1828, which mill had been received by boat. The teeth were very unsound, being full of sand holes, and of no value whatever. Me told Mr. Everall of that circumstance, who sent for other persons lo examine it, and they were of the same opinion as himself. The mill was therefore returned. Mr. John Thackery was then called, who deposed to the same effect. The mill had not a working tooth in it; they were all full of sand holes. Mr. John Everall gave similar testimony. Mr. William Priichard examined the mill ; many of the teeth were blistered, and several damaged; some of them were broken off, and not fit for crushi ng bark. Samuel Pritchard said, in his judgment, the mill which he had seen was not fit for crushing bark ; the teeth were very rough and blistered. He had not put the mill together; it was for steam or horse power. Mr. R. G. Temple addressed the jury^ if- the defendant had a good and legal defence, he would not have quibbled about the delivery of the mill, which he was afterwards compelled to admit. They would be pleased to remember, that the plaintiffs had brought before them witnesses who were experienced mill- wrights, to prove the goodness and excellence of the workmanship of the mill, which they established beyond a doubt; while, on the other side, nothing but tanners and workmen from the tan- yard were produced to speak to its defects. Under such circumstances, they would not pause to consider as to whom their verdict was due. The Recorder summed up; and the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs, £ 12.

At the CARDIGANSHIRE Great Sessions, Judge Goulbnrn, in bis address to the Grand Jury, con- gratulated them on the paucity of criminals for the county of Cardigan, and attributed this pleasing consideration to the fact of the gentlemen of pro- perty living among the peasantry. While crime of every description was on the increase in England, where the " march of intellect" had appeared, he was glad to find the inhabitants of Wales peaceable and harmless without the aid of the new lights. The learned Judge adverted to the report of the Law Commissioners, which recommended the abolition of the Welsh Judicature, and advised the gentlemen of the Grand Jury to peruse it with attention, before the next assembling of Parliament, that they might be able to form their own opinion on that interesting subject, and concluded by adverting to some im- provements which he intended to introduce into the practice of the Court of Great Sessions on the Car- marthen Circuit.— There was only one prisoner for trial, namely, Mary Michael, for stealing a piece of muslin from the shop of Mr. Thomas Mitchell, at, Cardigan. She was found guilty, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour.

Tbe sale of this fine property, belonging: t" Sir Bellinp. bam Graham, has caused a considerable sensation in tbe monied and agricultural world, and more particularly in tbe county where it is situate; as the result cannot fail to be very influential in directing tbe opinion of tbe Landed Interest, we make no apo. logy for appropiating a larger space than we usually devote to these matters. To our readers in London, and counties far distant from this property, it may be accessory to state that very few of the size bold tbe same rank in public estimation. The Whitwell property ( to use the words of Mr. G. Robins, who officiated on this interesting' occasion), has long held a distinguished place in public opinion, aud yet it is difficult to do justice to it without encountering tile risk of too highly colouring the picture It should he added, this observation only applies to those who have not been so fortunate as to have had ocular proof. To those who are familiar with this pro- verbially beautiful estate, the remarks may appear to partake of tbe work of supererogation. It is, therefore, to the former tbe following summary is more especially directed, Whitwell is distant 12 miles from York, on tbe direct road from Scar- borough ; it embraces near lOOOaeresof good kind, in a high state of cultivation, the river Derwqut forming; its boundary. Of tbe houses, it was observed they were of that description which made it refreshing to view such comfortable abodes, as in contradistinction to three- fourths of the farmers' bouses throughout England. By reference to the plan, it was quite manifest that for compactness it cannot be exceeded, and the quality of tbe soil, and respectability aud long standing of the tenantry, will not yield to any in the county. One fact he thought would be quite ample to demonstrate his position, that there was not an instance on record of a single arrear of rent on this highly favoured estate for 23 years. Proceeding in this strain, with an earnestness in the good cause that augured well of the result ( but which our confined space for- bids us giving in detail), he panegyrised the tenantry in terms that must be equally gratifying to their, liberal landlord and themselves. He then took a comprehensive view of the great advantage of investing in good laud, and more especially in a properly that possessed the. grand desideratum of being free from tithe and extra- parochial; for it must never be forgotten ( said Mr. Robins), that ill times ( happily gone by) of agricul- tural distras, which lie had witnessed occasionally during tbe last seven years, the exemption from a heavy poor rate and tithe rendered such estates ( even during adverse times) a source of certiun revenue, while the poor land must always necessarily submit to a heavy abatement iu rent, lie then proceeded to enumerate the present rent- roll; it consisted as follows: Acres. Rental Whitwell Villa, with Gardens & Plantations, £. s. d. ( suppositious value) in hand 82 2- 20 0 0 The Farms 1475 2511 12 6 The Cottages and Laud, iu the Village uf Whitwell 63 14 AIPALPAHLE HIT AT THE LAWYERS.— During the trial of Clemett, tbe notorious dealer in forged notes, at the Lincaster Assizes, on Wednesday last, a witness, of the name of Farnworlh, who had been himself previously convicted of a robbery, was brought forward as the principal witness for the prosecution. In his cross- examination, the following- laconic colloquy occurred:— Mr. Coltman ( coutisi I for the defence), " Was you ever confined iu lite New Bailey?" Witness, " Yes." U- " Are yoti not. likewise well acquainted with the accommodation of the Knutsford and Chester jails r" '' No— / do Hot go that circuit." At the Chester Great Session, which commenced ott Wednesday last, William Parkinson, a'ged 80, was convicted of the manslaughter, in 1824, of Joseph Fletcher ( who had courted the prisoner's daughter against the father's wish), at Dunham on- the- Hill. The prisoner absconded after lie had committed the deed, and was not taken until June last.— lie was r. tnv sentenced to two years1 imprisonment.— John ' Thorn- ton, aged only 18, was found guilty of bigamy, in having married Hannah Pearson, his former wife being then living. lie was sentenced to be imprisoned two years to hard labour.— John Taylor antl John Henshall, two poachers, for maliciously shooting . tit Thomas Forster, gamekeeper to the Eat I of Stamford, had judgment of death recorded against than:— Samuel Latham, for stealing two calves at Sound, had judgment of death recorded against hint.''— Thomas Smith, for the manslaughter of Godfrey Lingard, at Newton, was sentenced to 12 months' im prisonment,.— Judgment of death was recorded agaii. st John Lambert, for housebreaking at Resthome; against John Smith alias Donovan, aged Iff, for maliciously stabbing and wounding Thomas Much, at Moreton; against Moses Moth am and James Andrew, for sheep- stealing; and against Joseph Worthivgtov, for horse- stealing— Peter Brenuv, tor house- breaking at Low er Bebington ; Samuel Stevifns and John Sefton alias Stevens, for uttering forged notes; and Henry Wyatt for maliciously stabbing James I5urge. ss, at Stockport, and William Wydlt, Thomas Wyatt, and Thomas Pollit, for being accessary to the same crime, were severally sentenced to be transported for life.— Judgment of dealh was recorded against William Phillips, for house break- ing- at Stockport.-— fahn Woodhousc, aged 39, for a rape on the person of his own daughter, a child not 11 years old, was left for execution. FORETHOUGHT OF AN IRISH SOLDIER.— WLIRH the British army was advancing to the attack at Bladensburgh, and the American guns had already opened upon them, it chanced that the 85th regiment, which led the column, was met by a peasant driving- cart towards the village, in which a newly made cedar coffin was deposited. He was instantly hailed by an Irish soldier; " Holloa, friend! just lave llmt there, if ye plase ; for there'l be use for it afore long '." It was to no purpose that Jonathan protested against this injunction, assuring Pat that the Box was wanted for a lady, who was to be buried that day. " Arrnh, new, de ye hear me ?" was all the satisfaction he got; " just lave it and he off wid ye." The coffin was accordingly deposited at the sicle of the road, anil the countryman with his horse anil cart departed. In a few minutes the musketry began in earnest, and in due time Colonel Thornton fell, severely ivonuded. Our friend Pat was one of those who were prompt ill the offer of assistance ; but the colonel was too much hurt to move or even to stand. " I wish someone would fetch a board," said tbe oflicor, in great agon;, " I cannot move a limb ; and you will kill me if yiiti lift me without one." " Ah, now, long life to ye re honour!" quoth Pat, " isn't there just the tiling convanient here ?" So saying, off he rail, and return- ed in a moment with the coffin. The colonel MI S raised from the ground ; but, unfortunately, the coffin though abundantly wide, was by a foot and half too short. Pat, however, was not to be put out oft he way by this ; he knocked out the head and foot boards in a trice, and the colonel, being deposited between the side boards, was literally borne off the field in the coffin. " Now, didn't I tell ye" said Pat with great self- complacency, as he marched along, " didn't I tell ye there'd be use for it afore long ?" MR. BRAHAM, MR. KNYVETT, AND MR. VAUGHAN. SIGNOR COSTA, SIGNOR GIUB1LEI, AND SIGNOR DE BEGNIS. MR. PHILLIPS, MR. BELLAMY, & c. & c. THE PROGRESS OF LIBERALITY. IR'LAND.— Have any of our readers lately been as far as Kill, on the high road to Naas ? Kill is a small village situate a short distance from Rathcoole, and is for one circumstance entitled ^ o notice. The Priest, or the parishioners, or Doctor Doyle, or some, or one, or all, have had the audacity to attach to the Romish Mass House, lately built there, a spire a .1 belfry, exceeding in height antl width those belonging to the " Law Church," as Papists are wont to call the buildings appropriated for the performance of divine worship according to the ritual of the Estab- lished Religion; and which Church stands within a few yards of the Mass House in question. Kildare is not a very Protestant county ; but surely there be some of its resident Gentry who might have the nuisance complained of abated, even though the Bishop of the diocese, Dr. Lindsay, have joined the Romans. That the erection of the spire and heli'ry is illegal, and in direct violation of the law of the land, there can be no doubt. The Statutes affecting such buildings have not been repealed, and Ihe new Bill gives no warranty for their violation. We hope some public- spirited resident, will avail himself of the powers which the law unquestionably gives him.— Star of Brunswick. PRINCIPAL INSTRUMENTAL PERFORMERS. LEADERS.. CONCERTO PLAYERS.

The BAND, on the same Scale of Strength as at the last Meeting, is composed, almost exclusively, of the finest London Performers ; and the most eftective Vocalists are engaged to fill up the CHORAL DEPART- MENT, aided by the BIRMINGHAM CHORAL SOCIETY. THE COMMITTEE of MANAGEMENT, in submitting a List of Professional Engagements entered into for the ensuing Festival, beg to state that they have spared neither Exertion nor Expence in their Endeavour that the fine Selection of Music in Preparation maybe performed in the most perfect Manner. MADAME MALIBRAN GARCIA is the Prima Donna engaged ; and, as her extraordinary Powers are but little known in England, it may be stated, on the Authority of some of the most, competent Judges, that her great and versatile Talent has placed her higher in Rank than any Singer of the present Day. SIGNOR COSTA, a new Tenor Singer from Naples, at the Recommendation of ZingareUi, makes his debut in this Country on the Occasion ; and M. DE BERIOT returns expressly from Brussels to fulfil his Engagement with the Committee. It is well known that some of the most admired Music of the present Day is Operatic, and when performed at the usual Concerts loses a great Portion of its Effect. The Committee have therefore made an Alteration in ih • former Plan by concentrating the great leading Talent of the Instrumental Band in the Orchestra of the Theatre on the Tuesday and Thursday Evenings, and thus enabling several selected Scenas of Italian Operas to he performed in Character on the Stage, aided with the usual Dresses, Scenery, & c. This Arrangement will cause the Music to be heard to its greatest Advantage. On Wednesday and Friday the great Orchestra will be fitted up, and Miscellaneous Concerts will take Place as formerly. *** A COMMITTEE has been appointed to superintend the LETTING of LODGINGS, and Visitors desirous of engaging Apartments during the Festival, upon making Application at the Office of the Birmi igham Gazette, where the Register is deposited, will find that ample Accommodation has been provided on moderate Terms. BIRMINGHAM, AUGUST 28, 1829. Total. 1557 2795 6 6 To this might be added the Manor and the underwood on fifty acres of land. From this statement it appeared that the actual receipt from the farms and cottage rents was £ 2575. 6s. 6' d. and the sup- posed value of the house and grounds £ 220; and lie argued that an estate possessing so many advantages was evidently underlet. This led him to suggest, that at a time when money was so abundant ( for, quoth Mr. Robins, it is going about beg- ging at 2 per cent, iii the city, upon bona fide security), ariy one purchasing this estate, to net two and a half per cent, ought to be well satisfied. Ai this period of the sale Mr. Robins observed, he was anxious to call the attention of . the Funded Interest to an observation he intended to make- . with.. out being of that description of persons called croakers, lie would ask in the name of common sense, if any of his numerous auditory could doubt that the funds were at an exceedingly high price; he knew full well it would be argued the interest would not vary; but he would repeat, is. it nothing to lose a fifth part of the principal_-- arid> to illustrate this position, he would ask, what would be the result of an angry message from Russia, in case we interfered in the present dispute with Tur- key— we should not need the ghost of Hamlet to foretell a fall of 10 percent.; and if that message was followed up by any thing wearing a more hostile aspect, another fall of 10 per cent, would quickly follow;-— who then would hesitate, the more especially when it is considered that the cause which must of necessity produce this diminution in the value of stock, will increase in the exact same proportion the value of land. These and a huudred other observations followed in quick succession, and at length the auditory were intreated to begin with 120,000 guineas; but supplication was vaia, and after much, hesitation 7 J, 000 guineas was the first offer. A considerable pause ensued, when they were again intreated to " break the ice," for when tiiis is done ( Mr. Robins added) he was sure the biddings would follow in rapid succession; his conjecture proved well founded, for on tne instant they proceeded with unusual rapidity until they reached 95,000 guineas; a pause again ensued, when Mr. Robins very humorously observed, that if it were actually sold at such an inadequate price, the good folks of York ( who entertained a sort of parental, lie would add, a reverential feeling for the Whitwell propertY), would, on the a- rival, of the mail to- morrow, with the sad tidings, go into mourning for its untoward fate; nay, he even believed it would produce as much excitement there as the destruction of York. Minsler. ( Considerable Applause.)— This observation had the effect of renewing the biddings, and it was at length actually sold for 96,200 guineas, to Joseph Haigh; Esq. a large landed pro- prietor in Yorkshire. We have been thus explicit in our nar- ration, because ( as we said before), it must be influential in establishing the real value of land. We have argued ( aud it appears successfully), for some time past, in favour of the staple commodity of the country, and our readers will see the result. The property produces only £ 2795: 6' s. 6d. per annum, and in this sum is included a suppositious rent ,( for the villa and plan- tations) of £ 220 a year ; yet upwards of 36 years' purchase was produced for the whole ; ' after this, let it not bs argued that land is depressed, or the agricultural interest in a situation to complain. The large room at the Auction Mart was literally crowded almost to suffocation, including most of the great capitalists in London, and from Yorkshire. iBisreUanfOiis Eatrliigencc.

[ From the Monthly Magazine.'] The rumours of a junction with the premier we altogether disbelieve. It is known that some of the younger and weaker aspirants of the Protestant ranks have suffered the pageantry of office to glitter before their eyes. But we deny that any of the leaders, any one of those distinguished men who resisted the Catholic question on principle, can ever, without utter ruin, coalesce with the man who effected that odious and most short sighted act of power. We can fully comprehend the influence that may have been ex- erted from the highest quarters to enlist those indivi- duals, at the hazard of their own characters, in the protection of that of the sinking premier. But ou one point they must make up their minds. If they join the present cabinet, they will be first disgraced in the eyes of the empire, and next, utterly duped by their new allies. The game of the present cabinet is to share its unpopularity; its actual power it never will share. The Protestant who is rash enough to enter into that coalition is from that instant undone; he is the representative of Protestantism no more. He is the associate of the Dawsons, anti Peels, and Copleys; and, after having been compelled to recant his honourable antl public reprobation of them antl their miserable motives, and having shown, bv his condescending to act with them, that his reprobation was hypocritical, and his principles only a bait for office, he will be cast out to add to the number of the Huskissons. With the Duke of Wellington's cabinet no Protestant can combine. The popish question has drawn a line between him and the con fidence of Protestantism forever. If ever legislatorial act brought evil on a country, that act is the one. The strength of England was the presence of Protest- antism in her councils, her standing as the great guardian of the interests of pure religion throughout the world, her immaculate preservation of the one only faith of scripture, as the guide and living essence of her constitution. This is at. an end. We have broken the covenant under which England was raised to power as palpably as ever was king or people of the old world. The compact was dissolved by the sacrilegious act of suffering the idolator to enter into the councils of Christianity. There may be men who care nothing about, these violations; there may be ministers who find in the tortuousnrss of their intrigue, a foolish triumph over honourable and unsuspecting minds. But, if ever a nation wept in tears of blood at an act of its legislature, England will yet weep the guilt of suffering popery to pollute her constitution. Willi the man who led the way to this offence, the religion of England can allow no alliance. His career may be brief— it will be belter — rand he must be left to run it. alone; BANKRUPTS, S I> T. 4.-- William Kerri- k, nf Nortti. ro-.", Park. lane, livery- stiible- keeper. - Thomas M bite, of Joliin'onvl court, Fleet- slr'eet, printer Hyani Ansel!, of I'olcheytci- stieet, Savage- gardens, walcb- inaniil'tcliirer.— - William Uoh t Ciardoer, of Ilarpni'. atTfet, Red l. ioo. sq'tare, c! iu'ravcr William Petherbridge, of Whitechaprf, linen drap » r.. - Wn-..

" Now the br iglu moruiug star, day's harbinger, " Came dancing from the east." M f I. TON. And three brothers of the Angle mounted their nags, to resort again to the mountain streams. . Our route lay as before among the hogs and sterile moun tains of'Cardiganshire; and after a long ride I left my companions, to proceed further amongst the hills, and under a promise of meeting them at noon to partake of refreshment. Leaving my horse at a shepherd's hut, ( after a dangerous and solitary ride among the deceitful morasses,) 1 repaired to a part of the Rhyddol about four nules from its source, bat finding the wind blowing violently op the stream, rendering it impos- sible to throw my line with any precision, after a few futile attempts, " What," thought I, " shall I do here for hours alone, and without sport ? I will go to the I- ake, the source of this river, where I shall be certain of diversion." With this determination, my fishing apparatus were put up. I was now at the foot of Pliulimmon, and taking a semicircular direction a little above its base, the lake of which 1 was in search, after an hour's walk, presented itself. Here, thought I, is the tit abode for " The last man," if it be necessary for him to be previously familiarized with solitude : for never did loneliness appear more complete, more absolute. Living Nature bad bade adieu to the scene. The lake burst sud- denly upon the view, a little below the ccntre of the mountain, in a situation where no uninformed person could have imagined a sheet of water would have been discovered. The plan adopted in finding it was : course of the Rhyddol: had deciding to which its parts belong. It is remarkable for being the source of three rivers, namely, the Severn, the Wye, and the Rhyddol; of which a fiction is related to this effect. They agreed to run, on a certain morning, a race to the sea. No hour being appointed, she who awoke first was to have the start J\ ladain Severn, awaking first, at an early hour, chose the most fertile and pleasant country, hut the longest course. Miss Wye next, arose, and shaking her dewy locks, and finding the Rhvddol still asleep, selected the next fertile district to that which Severn had taken ; but growing tired of* solitude, and indif- ferent as to the result, hastened to join her sister Sabrina. At length the lazy Rhyddol awoke, and discovering that her rivals had started, dashed for- ward with a madman's fury, took the shortest course to the ocean, and w on the race. The Severn, as the reader is aware, after its junction with the Wye at Chepstow, forms the Bristol Channel, after a course of between two and three hundred miles; while the Rhyddol flows into the sea at Aberystwyth, after a journey short of thirty. The hitter river, before it reaches the Dev il's Bridge, roars through the most stupendous caverns, formed by its own irresistible torrent, and is in many places quite inaccessible. Rivers are the greatest and most watchful of thievesThey wind through the secluded glens, and f| uiet valleys, apparently in pursuit of their fellow rills; " seeking, as it were, " what they may devour." They are like pilfering Authors, who disguise the sentiments of others in their own clothing, and whose works boast a force not intrinsically theirs. Having sufficiently recruited myself by rest, 1 began to descend, but by a different route from that by which 1 had gained the summit; and after a long circuitous walk, came once again in view of the Rhyddol. During my descent 1 was somewhat sur- prised at starting a mouse on the side of such a wild- erness, which scampered to its cell with the like pre- cipitancy that its tribe were necessitated to use at the termination of the celebrated " Battle of the Frogs and Mice," when Jove sent Crabs to the aid of the former. " O'er the wild waste with hendlo'ng flight ihey go, " Or creep conceal'd in vaulted holes below." Parodying Gray, doubtless Full many a mouse is bom to creep unseen, Anil Insle the sweetness of the desert air '. At length I reached ( lie River side, but my friends were out of sight, and, as 1 conceived, much lower down the stream. Resolving to let no opportunity escape, anil the wind being now favourable, 1 angled where the immense jutting rocks would permit, and soon lined my basket with small trout. If an Angler would desire quantity, without regard to size or quality, let him resort to the Rhyddol, between the Devil's Bridge and its source ; where he may be sure of the completion of his wish, and of frequently pulling out two fish at once With a flush in the river lie may catch large trout, and at no time, if he can throw his line with precision, will he complain of the appetites of the fish, which are the most voracious imaginable. Six or eight dozen may be caught in three hours. In file midst of these solitudes a wild duck sud- denly rose from the bank, and immediately lit upon the swift current, and swain down every rapid, flap- ping her wings, and making a distressing noise as she went. There was something remarkable in the man- ner of this bird, whose species is of all others the most shy, and on examining the spot whence she sprung, there were her warm nest and store of eggs. Otters frequent these parts, and if they happen to be confronted in places where the banks of the river admit of the sport of hunting them, a person need scarcely covet any other amusement. It was five o'clock when I sat down, nearly ex- hausted, with my friends, in a small hut, to enjoy refreshment, after a long fast, and an absence of nine hours.

[ TO BE CONTINUED.] PAPER. by strictly marking the course of the Rhyddol I not done this, it must have remained hidden from me. The summit of Plinlimtnon appeared with great majesty to the right, and immense precipitous rocks formed the back and sides of the lake, leaving it open only to my approach. The situation of it appeared like a terrific rent made by accumulated waterspouts in the mountain's side ; and the water trickling from the shelving rocks around, might awaken an idea of the vital drops flowing from a wound in some mighty animal, when fabled giants were the hunters of the earth. The circumference of the lake is nearly a fourth of a mile. It is called, with the usual descriptiveness of Welsh appellations, " Llvgad- Rhyddol," that is, the Hhyddol's Eye. The trout rose eagerly, and 1 soon had fifteen i; my basket. The winds whistled round the immense chasm in contrary directions: sometimes it blew directly in my face, and compelled mc to change my station, which I had frequently no sooner done, when, as ( hough old Mollis entertained some spite against me, it veered again : in reality, the conse- quence of this caverned situation. Being now about a third of the way up the height of Plinlimmon, 1 determined to seize the opportunity of ascending it. The mountain irt front of the lake was exceedingly abrupt and steep, and taking off my shoes, as a precaution against slipping on the smooth sward, 1 went up in a zig zag direction, pausing at intervals to breathe, and to view the « Rhyddol's Eye;'' which was bright and very beautiful; and so directly beneath the high and overhanging rock across " which 1 passed, that if I had slipped, its attraction would have brought me to its centre not perhaps the first undone by a sparkling eye ! 1 continued iu this manner to ascend until within about eighty yards of the top, when the edged stones compelled me to acknowledge the importance and service of leather : and here the wind w as so unusually powerful, that if either of my garments had been carried away, it must have taken a balloon- like voyage: but, tying on my hat, 1 pressed forwards, and reached the summit. An immeasurable, striking prospect met the sight. Between myself and England every height of note appeared ; and tops of hills, as countless as the waves of the sea, rose southward. The coast, unfortunately, was shut out from view, by an impervious mist. Cader Idris displayed his near and awful front, and Snow'don, far north, iu the utmost distance, reared bis Alpine head. A long valley, at a considerable distance, bordered by steep hills, with the glistening Wy e meandering through its partially wooded bosom, presented a pleasing picture, and a grateful contrast to the surrounding sterile eminences. The immediate country observed from Plinlimmon is a wilderness of sheepwalks: the summits of the highest hills are completely overlooked; and the brooks flowing through almost every bottom, have a singularly still appearance, resembling so many streaks of polished silver. Except iu the valley of the Wye, not a tree is seen, aid though Grouse arc found in the vicinity, no heath is discoverable. Upon the apex there is a strong kind of moss, all of which obstinately inclines front the sea, proving the force of the prevailing westerly winds. I dwelt with varied feelings on this vast landscape, limited on the one side by the ocean- mist, and on the others bv the undulating horizon. In such a situ- ation, with only the winds for company, awe, triumph, astonishment, alternately possess the spectator. He feels half inclined to adopt the proud sentiment of Goldsmith : " Creation's lord, the world, the world is mine!" In so wide a space, no vestige of Agriculture, no trace of mankind ! Where are they ? I sat down by a heap of stones, under the wind, and lighting a cigar by means of a fire- box, puffed without offence to any one! And if I did not think of my friends below, 1 contemplated the provision they had uith them. Plinlimmon ( which is the loftiest mountain of South Wales) is on the confines of the counties of Cardigan and Montgomery, the fall of the waters The following is a report of an evening in the Society of Arts. The article is not inappropriate to our craft, and may interest the reader. The subject of this evening's illustration was the manufacture of paper. The secretary began by stating that the leaves of trees were probably the first vegetable substances used for writing on : the leaves of the Cumaean sibyl, and the oracular leaves of the oaks of Dodona, were of this description. In India, and other tropical oriental countries, the leaves of various kinds of palm are even still employed for this purpose ; specimens of which were exhibited. Another vegetable substance used in the state in which nature offers it, is the bark of trees; liber, as the Romans called it, whence our English word Ibrary. Specimens of birch bark, adapted to this purpose, were shewn. The bark of the beech was employed by the the Teutonic nations; iu the language of these people the becch was called loch whence we derive our word book. The Egyptians, inhabiting a country not adapted to the growth of trees, appear never to have used bark for writing on. An aquatic plant, abounding in the marshes of Lower Egypt, and known to the Greeks under the name biblos, was first remarked for the toughness and pliability of its stem, which caused it to he employed for cables and for matting — It afterwards, under the name papyrus, became celebrated as the material from which the Roman empire for several centuries derived its snpp paper. A description was given, from Pliny and other ancient authors, of the different variet making it in Egypt, and of re- manufacturing it at Rome. Specimens of the stem of the papyrus from Egypt anil from Sicily were exhibited, and a Greek MS. on a roll of this material. In the seventh century cotton paper was introduced from the East into Europe, and superseded the use of papyrus.— We are indebted for its introduction to the Arabians, who appear to have first become acquainted with it by their conquest of Samarcand at that time the great centre of communication between China and the other parts of Asia. Paper, therefore, made from vegetable fibre appears to be one of the many ingenious and useful inventions that have arisen in China.— The chief material of paper in China is the fibrous bark of the paper mulberry, of which the less civilized tribes of the Indian archipelago, and of the Polynesian islands, prepare a kind of cloth by beating the bark so as to separate its fibres iu some degree from each other. Several very curious specimens of this cloth were exhibited. A paper for writing on is prepared in Java from the same bark, and by a modification of the same process, of w hicli an interesting specimen was shewn. The manufacture of paper in China was then described, and illustrated by a very copious series of specimens, presented to the society by one of their members, J. Reeves, Esq. of Canton. Iu N'ipal, and the northern parts of India, paper is made in the same way as in China, but from the fibrous bark of a spccies of daphne, which from its acrimony, has the invaluable property of not being attacked by the white ant. Specimens of daphne bark, of paper made from it in Nipal, and of the same paper re- manufactured in England, were ex- hibited, as well as of a very remarkable paper made in Cashmeer. Early in the fourteenth century the application of linen rags to making paper was discovered. The superiority of this paper over that made of cotton was immediately perceived, and the use of this latter was soon abandoned. The secretary then proceeded to a detailed account of the various steps in the manufacture of paper as commonly practised in this country, illustrated by specimens; and concluded by an account of the very ingenious machine invented by M. Fourdrinier, and perfected by other artists, by means of which paper may be made of almost any length, and with a rapidity hitherto unknown. Ylersej' . 26 ...

" I know that cursed nest of a rock on which Falketistein stands, said the miner, " and assure you, that 300 of the best workmen could not accom- plish the task in eiabt days. You will, therefore, see that the thing is impossible to be done iu your time." On hearing this, Cunon sat himself down at the entrance of the mine in the utmost despair ; he remained in this melancholy state until evening set in. In his distraction he looked up, and suvv stand- ing before him a diminutive old man, whose head aud breast were bleached with age, and who thus addressed him. " Chevalier du Sayn, I have heard what has passed betwixt you and your miner ; he is a clever fellow, but 1 understand the trade better than he does, and I feel for your present distress." " Your people call me and mine fairies, but there is nothing in a name. That we are a little more ethereal, a little more agile than your ordinary men, all the world allow. It would be a bagatelle for us to complete a convenient road in an hour, from the foot of the rock to the castle at its summit." " If," said Cunon, " you could do this and would do it"— " 1 both can and will accomplish it; but under- stand, I shall expect to have tny recompense. You must cease working the mine of St. Marguerite instantly, otherwise you will very soon penetrate to our dwellings, and oblige us to quit the mountain. This is all the return 1 require; yon will not lose any thing by granting it : to the left yon will find the veins of metal more abundant, aud 1 will give you a ring which will indicate the proper places to dig in. The beds run from south to east, and the fairies dwell altogether in the north.* 4 Cunon directly assured him that he should have all the gold and silver mines in the universe for the possession of the beautiful Irmengarde. The old man then promised him the fulfilment of his wishes before morning's sunrise. Cuuon, relying ou this promise, went home happy and content. At the castle of Falkensteiu the amiable Irmen- garde, sitting pensively at the window, was suffer ing from intense anxiety. Iler father had acquainted her with the motive of the recent visit of Cunon, and with his propositions. He also informed her of his reply thereto. The night was, therefore, fur advanced before she thought of seeking repose. Eleven o'clock struck, and immediately after she heard the sound of work- people, as if hammering and driving of wedges, and of picking and splitting rocks. Her heartbeat high* yet she had not courage to look through the window. Falkenstein, who had retired to rest, was awakened by the noise, and catne into the saloon. " Is he mad,— this Chevalier Cunon ?" said lie, " I should not wonder if he does not destroy my present path and render it impassa- ble, so that we must descend like crows, or remain here for ever. He opened the casement to look out, ndeavoured to discern what was going on. A violent storm of wind rushed through the forest of old oaks, every tree beat under it; the windows and doors were thrown open with great violence; bursts of loud laughter were heard at intervals in the distance. Irmengarde closely embraced her father, and, crossing herself, fervently recited her prayers. Nature, however, soon resumed her ordinary course; all was silence; scarcely did a Zephyr agitate the air. Falkenstein began to breathe more freely, and sought to calin the fears of his daughter. He said, u This certainly can have been only the demon of the chase passing through the forest; 1 have heard such frequently in my youth." Irmengarde, confiding in the assurance of her father, became composed; but the old chevalier was not quite re- assured himself; his conscience was not so much at ease as his daughter's. Uncer- tain what would be the issue of this eventful night* he sate himself down by the windows, musing upon the late mysterious noises, until the birds' melodious notes announced break of day. With the first rays of the sun the Chevalier du Sayn, on his horse gaily caparisoned, passed briskly over the drawbridge. The trampling of the horse's feet and his neighing aroused Falkenstein, who hastily opened the window to receive the knight, whom he considered to have dropped from the clouds. Cuuon, smiling, bid him good morning, and said, " Well, Sir ele Falkenstein, dunt you see how pleasantly one approaches your castle :" " Am I dreaming, or am i awake ?" re- plied he, his eyes being struck with the very visible, bold, open road that appeared to have been cut out of the rock. Cuuon, entering the saloon, was pleased to observe the agreeable surprise his pre- sence caused to Irmengarde. He there detailed his inquietudes, and his unexpected deliverance from them iu the assistance he had received from the fairies. Falkenstein, softened by these recitals, • aid, " I shall keep my word," and turning to his daughter, joined their bauds. The same road to the castle exists at this day, and is known by the ap- pellation of the " Devil's Highway," which name it obtained at the period of this eveut. THE RELIEF BILL. [ FROM THE MONTHLY MAGAZINE.] night, to tropes and figures of felicity. Lord Plun- kett, the slave of every party in succession, was brought from his court in Ireland, post haste, to lift up his presbyterian voice; and re- tune his old commonwealth songs to the new chaunt of Church and King. The whole cabinet was a chorus of the new era of Utopian tranquillity. Church alnd State were to be secured for ever by this fortunate effort of ministerial energy. The howl of Irish riot was to be turned into gratitude and loyalty. Discontent was to perish, and the hereditary malice of popery was to be changed into a marvellous rivalry in the race of conciliation ! What has been the fulfilment ? Unless a great statesman be the personage whose predictions are to be falsified within a month, the Duke of Wellington's claim to the character is empty as the wind. We demand— has not every One of those pompous promises been falsified ? Has popery softened down a single feature of that hos- tility which, in every other land, hates and perse- secutes truth, grasps at power, and makes a bur- lesque of oaths and obligations, gratitude and prin- ciple? Are not the feuds of Ireland more extensive, systematic, and murderous than ever? Do not the late trials, the proclamations of the Irish govern- ment, and the language of the popish leaders^ show irresistibly that the most furious atrocities are, throughout Ireland, hourly committed by the papists? Do not the despatches represent them as assembling in camps, exercising with arms, and inarching in divisions, with military ostentation, to the attack of the Protestants? There has not been a single conviction of an Orangeman in the late sessions. Has the law reclaimed this spirit of out- rage ? Lord Francis Gower's letter makes the acknowledgment— and we know the reluctance of that noble Liberal to make any acknowledgment of the kind— that ever since the examples of justice in these sessions, papists have publicly, and in large bodies, continued those attacks and murdeis. One of the boasted securities of Protestantism was the stipulation that the popish bishops should not adopt their titles in public. Nothing could be more impotent than the stipulation, except its performance. In one week the popish bishops did take their titles, use them with the most contemptu- ous publicity, and, after having scofl'ed at the pro- hibition, wrung the right from government. Has Mr. O'Counell, or any of his fellow harangtfers, limited his insults by a single syllable since ? Con- cession, that was to have pacified and satisfied all the world, has but taught this orator to demand the repeal of the Union, the formation of an Irish papist parliament, and the abscission of the chuuch pro- perty. It has even stimulated him to the announce- ment of " further views." A mysterious phrase, which will soon contain no mystery. TRADITIONS OF THE RHINE. Sir Thomas Lcthbridge will certainly be opposed at the next election for the county of Somerset. An advertisement will he found in our columns from James Adam Gordon, Esq. of Naish House, near this city, pledging liiuisclfto come forward on the genuine principles of " church and state," which now, more than ever, require the aid of Eldonian inflexibility. Felix Farley's Bristol Journal. Falkenstein and the Devil's Highway. The solitary remains of the castle of Falkeustein, stand upon one of the mountainous rocks of Taunus, from whence the prospect for beauty aud extent is not excelled by any other in this country. Imme- diately below are the fertile vineyards of Kronen- berg, and around the eye can discern seventy villages, as also a part of the Rhine. A melancholy silence reigns over these ruins, which are now become the habitation of the amzel only. The mountain on which the castle stands was, for a long period after its erection, almost inaccessible, there being then but a narrow path intersected with steps from the foot to the summit. It was the residence of the knights of Falkenstein until the race became extinct. Tradition states, that the last of these was a man of austere mien and of harsh manners, but the country around resounded with the praises of the affability and beauty of bis only child Irmengarde. The contrast was striking ; the father was in- hospitable, and unpolished as the rock he dwelt upon, while his lovely daughter resembled the evening star, which sheds its soft light upon the wildest desert. It was impossible to see her with- out instantly bestowing confidence and love. In effect, it was just this impression that Cuuon du Sayn felt the first time his affairs required him to visit her father at the castle. Those eyes so rich in love aud beauty, that voice so full of sweetness and melody, were the torches which so suddenly inflamed his breast. Iu quitting the place he said to himself, " I will return and ask her hand." Oc- cupied with this determination, he revisited the castle a few days afterwards. The father gave him a very cool reception. They conversed for a time, standing at the casement of a window, from which there was a beautiful and extended prospect of the surrounding country. " There is not a castle in this canton," said Cuuon, " which is so pleasantly situated as yours, but the access to it is barbarous." " Pray who invited you to visit it?" replied the chevalier. " Sir," said Cunou, " Irmengarde has captivated me, and I have now come to solicit her hand." The father smiled,— this was a bad omen. After a few momcuts of silence, he thus addressed him, " Chevalier Cuuon, you shall have my daughter, but o ily upon one condition." « ' I accept," replied Cunon, " whatever the terms may be, without hesitation." " Well, then, thecoudition is, that you make a good load to this castle, so that I may travel to it on horseback, by to- morrow's dawn. Do you understand me ?" Cuuon spoke not, but stoodin deep thought. Falkcnsteiu frowned, Dawson does his business with thorough tnenial- ism; but the experiment is found to have beeu rash. Public disgust and wrath have been excited, and the wretched tool is instantly disowned; he is ostentatiously excluded from the sunshine of Mr. Peel's refulgent countenance, and is branded by a sueer of the premier, as an instance of " the folly of young politicians talking over their wine !" The nation applauds the punishment, and the name of lscariot is the slave's portion for ever. But suspicion has beeu awakened, and . Mr. Peel is the next menial pitched on to extinguish the pu1 lie vigilance. This blooming patriot forthwith makes a tour among the manufacturing districts, harangues, attends feasts, compliments the " staunch defenders of our glorious and imperishable consti- tution iu church and state," and comes back with the sallow smiles of a triumphant hypocrite, to soothe all alarms at Dowuing- street, aud re- assure the palpitating bosom of the sensitive premier. But some other menial of office at length lets out the rumour that the " atrocious bill" is actually engrossed. Protestantism is justly alarmed, and demands of the Premier w hether, after his solemn protestations, this can possibly be true? All the ministerial journals instantly lift up their voices in a chorus of denial. Down to the hour when the King's speech was read at the minister's table, the night before the debate, the same system of low craft is persevered iu. And for what purpose? This was no mere parliamentary stratagem to keep the opponents of a minister in the dark on some passing question of party ; it was a system of intrigue to keep the nation iu the dark to the most important changes that could affect a nation ; to a breach of the principles of the constitution ; to a fearful and hateful measure which ought to have been announced in the fullest manner for thesolemn and general deliberation of the empire; which in honour ought to have been preceded by a dissolu tion of parliament— by a direct appeal to the people for its decision on a new state of things. In a crisis like this, the conduct ofa" great Statesman" would have been conspicuous for the sincere and lofty abjuration of all official manccuvre. The contrary would have been the conduct of a little statesman ; he would have exhibited himself as a narrow- minded, hasty, and selfish struggler for power; degraded enough to stoop to paltry stratagem, and ignorant enough of the true success of power to fling away the national respect, aud be consoled for its irreparable loss by the most contemptible and shortlived of all prizes— the brawling applause and rabble pat tizanship of popery. Such was the management of the measure— mean and shuffling, shallow and despicable. And what are its fruits? Worthy of the planter and the seed — the apples of bitterness fr otn the trees of Go- morrah. No measure, within the memory of man, ever more instantly and formally falsified the pre- dictions of its abettors. ' I he indignant empire saw the decision removed from its true tribunal, that tribunal of the national mind which could not be corrupted. Parliament saw with increasing disgust the suspicious hurry of its progress, and the insolent avowal of a determination to force it by the weight of majorities, whose sudden creation is among the secrets of the cabinet. They listened with stern and contemptuous incredulity to the promises of the minister and his menials. Nothing could be more lavish than those promises. Where are they now ? The treasury bcuches echoed, night after The Danger of creating Wants. I was bred a linen draper, and went into business with better than a thousand pounds. I married the daughter of a country tradesman, who had received a boarding- school education. When I married I had been in business five years, and was in the way of accumulating a fortune. I was never out of my shop before it was shut up, and was remarked by my friends as being a steady young man with a turn for business. I used to dine in the parlour, where I could have an eye upon the shop ; but my new acquaintances told me this was extremely ungenteel; that if I had no confidence in my men, I should get others ; that a thief would he a thief, watch him bow I would ; and that I was now too forward in the world to become a slave to the shop. From being constantly in my shop from seven in the morning till eight in the evening, 1 lay in bed tilt nine, and took a comfortable breakfast before I made my appearance lielow. Things, however, went on very well— I bowed to my best customers, and attended closely to my business while I was in it— trade went on briskly, and the only effect of this acquaintance was the necessity of letting our friends see that we were getting above the world, by selling some of our old- fashioned furniture, and replacing it with that which was more genteel, and introducing wine at dinner when we had company. As our business increased, our friends told us it would be extremely genteel to take a lodging in summer just at the outskirts of the city, where we might retire in the evening after shop iva shut, and return to it next morning after break- fast; for, as we lived in a close part of the town, fresh air was necessary to our health ; and though, before I bad this airy lodging, I breathed very well in town, yet indulging in the fresh air 1 was soon sensible of all the stench and closeness of the metro- polis ; ami I must own I began to relish a glass of wine after dinner as well when alone as when in com- pany ;— I did not find myself the worse in circum- stances for this lodging, but 1 did not find I grew richer, and we had no money to lay by. We soon found out that a lodging so near town was covered with dust, and smelt too much of London air ; there- fore I took a small house we had seen about five miles from town, near an acquaintance we had made, and thought it imprudent to sleep from home every night, and that it would be better for my business to be in town all the week, and go to this house on Saturday, and continue there until Monday; but one excuse or other often found me there ou Tuesday. Coach- hire backwards and forwards, and carriage of parcels, generally cost us seven or eight shillings a week; and as a one- horse chaise would be attended with very little more expense, and removing to a fur- ther distance, seeing the expense would be saved by not having our house full of company on Sunday, which was always the case, being so near town; besides, the exercise would be beneficial, for I was growing corpulent with good living and idleness. Accordingly we removed to the distance of 15 miles from town, into a better house, because there was a large garden adjoining' it, and a field for the horse. It afforded abundance of fruit, and fruit was good for scorbutic and plethoric habits, our table would be furnished at less expense, and fifteen miles was but an hour's ride more than seven miles. Ail this was plausible, and I soon found myself under the necessity of keeping a gardener; so that every cabbage that I before put on my table for one penny cost me one shilling, and I bought my dessert at the dearest hand ; but I was in it— 1 found myself happy in a profusion of fruit, and a blight was little less than death to me. This new acquired want now introduced all the ex- pensive modes of having fruits in spite of either blasts or blights. 1 built myself a small hot- house, and it was only the addition of a chaldron or two of coals; the gardener was the same, and we had the pride of putting on our table a pine- apple occasionally, when our acquaintance were contented w ith the exhibition of a melon. From this expense we soon got into a fresh one. As we often out- staid Monday in the country, it was thought prudent that I should go to town on Monday by myself, and return in the evening; this being too much for one horse, a second- hand chariot might he purchased for a little more than what the one- horse chaise would sell for; the field was large enough for two horses ; going to town in summer in an open carriage- was choaking ourselves with dust, burning onr faces, and the number of carriages on the road made driving dangerous ; besides, having now a gen teel acquaintance til the neighbourhood, there was no paying a visit in a one- horse chaise. Another horse would be but very little addition in expense; we had a good coach- house, and the gardener would drive. All this seemed true. I fell into the scheme; but soon found that the wheels were so often going that the gardener could not act in both capacities ; whilst he was driving the chariot the liot- house was neg- lected; the consequence was, that I hired a coach- man. The chariot brought on the necessity of a footman— a better acquaintance— wax candles— sherry— Madeira, French wines, & c. I short, I grew so fond of these indulgences they became WANTS, and I was unhappy when in town and out of the reach of them. All this would have done very well if I had not had a business to mind ; but the misfor tune was that it took me off' from trade— unsettled my thoughts — my shopmen were too much left to themselves, they were negligent of my business, and plundered me of my property. I drew too often upon the till— made no reserve for the wholesale dealers and manufacturers— could not answer their demands upon me— and became— bankrupt. Re- duced now to live upon a chop and a draught of porter, 1 feel my wants more than ever; my wife's genteel notions having upset her, she lost her spirits. We do little but upbraid each other, and 1 am des- picable in my own opinion, and ridiculous in that of others. I once was happy, but now am miserable. ! 33s0ccUancou0 Sntellieciue. EMIGRATION AND REMIGRATION.— We inserted) some months since, a paragraph, in which we gavd an account of an eccentric being from this neigh bourhood, who bad sailed for America, providid with the wherewithal to pay charges, in the shape of a stove and a half of sovereigns ! This adven- turer has returned to " Old England" within these few days, and is at present sojourning at Beverley, if not much wiser than when he left Yorkshire, at least better reconciled to his native country. The reason of hii re appearance in this quarter will he found in the following anecdoie :— Ou his arrival at New York, he walked through the streets of that opulent city, scantling every novelty with a curious, eye, with the intention of devising the means of employing most profitably his talents aud his sove- reigns. After viewing many rarities, he was struck by the sinlit of a large building which professed td be a " coffin warehouse." ( It seems that the Ameri- cans, who are large dealers in ready made goods of all sorts, are accustomed to keep a supply eveit of such lugubrious articles on baud.) The York- i aliireman went in, and observing a very large quantity of those narrow tenements of the dead, of shapes aud sizes to suit all customers, heaped up on every side, waiting for tenants, he shrewdly re- marked, that " people must die a great deal fastet- there than they did iu England, or there could be no occasion for such numbers of coffins." He im- mediately returned to his inn, inquired for the next vessel for his native land, took his passage, and actually sailed on his return home, after having re- mained in America only four days!— Hull Packet. YORKSHIRE PRODIGIES.— The York Herald, on the authority of a traveller from Leeds to that city, relates some extraordinary freaks of the mooti^ which the informant says himself and others wit- nessed about eleven o'clock on the night of Thurs- day w eek. " The moon," says the narrative, " had just risen, and was shining clearly; when it suddenly seemed to part iu two, its disc seperating down the centre, and leaving an apparent space of about one yard between the two hemispheres, in which the distant and deep azure of the sky was visible; Whilst in this state, from the northern limb'of the lunar orb a bright appearance darted forth,- in form like the head of a spear, and surrounded with brilliant stars. Ou a sudden, it seemed to be with- drawn, and iu its place appeared the distinct form of two human figures, which were visible to the! waist, and one arm aud the hand of one of them was extended on the surface of that half of the disc from which it emerged. A deep red girdle was round the head of one of them. The appearance remained for some time, wheu a cloud obscured the moon altogether frotn view. Ou its having passed away, the same occurrence was renewed, and our inform- ant states that the whole time, during which he had an uninterrupted view of these strange phenomena, was above an hour." The York journalist gravely refers these wondrous phenomena to those' who are' able to give a more scientific description. THE STORMY PETREL.— This little creature^ scarcely as'big again as a swallow, and the smallest of all our web- footed birds, has, like all the others of its genus, that extraordinary tube on its upper inaudible, through which it spirts out au oily matter when irritated; but the real object of this singular provision seems unknown. Our seamen amuse themselves during a monotony of a voyage with the vagaries of " mother Gary's chickens," as they havfi from very early times called this bird. The petrels seem to repose in a common breeze, but upon the approach, or during the continuation of a gale, they surround a ship, and catch up the smali animals which the agitated ocean brings near the surface, or any food that may be dropped from the vessel. Whisking with the celerity of an arrow through the deep valleys of the abyss, aud darting away over the foaming crest of some mountain wave, they at- tend the labouring bark in all her perilous course. When the storm subsides they retire to rest, and are no more seen. The presence of this petrel was thought iu times past to predict a storm, aud it was consequently looked upon as an unwelcome visitant. DR. MACULLOCH'S THEORY OF THE ORIGIN OK A TOWN.— In the case of country towns, where a Highland laird or a speculating society, has not in- terfered, it is matter of analysis, for the fashionable science of political economy, to discover how one of them has grown or by what cement it is united. There is a church ; that is the ordinary foundation. Where there is a church there must be a parson, a clerk, a sexton, and a mid wile. Thus we account for four houses. An inn is required on the road. This produces a smith, a saddler, a butcher, and a brewer. The parson, the clerk, the sexton, the midwife, the butcher, the smith, the saddler, and the brewer, require a baker, a tailor, a shoemaker, and a carpenter. They soon learn to eat plum- puddings, and a grocer follows. The grocer's wife and parson's wife coutend for superiority in dress, whence flows a milliner, and with the milliner a mantiia. maker. A barber is introduced to curl tlie parson's wig, and shave the smith on Saturday nights, and a stationer to furnish the ladies with paper for their sentimental correspondences; an exciseman is sent to guage the casks, and a school- master discovers that the ladies cannot spell. A butter, a hosier, and a linen draper, follow by degrees; and as children come into the world, they begin to cry out for rattles and gingerbread. The parson becomes idle and gouty aud gets a curate^ and the curate gets twenty children aud a wife and thus it becomes necessary to- have more shoe- makers, and tailors, and grocers. Alas J too happy people I for in the mean time a neighbouring apo- thecary, hearing with indignation that there is a community living without physic, places three blue bottles iu a window, when ou a sudden, the parson, the butcher, the innkeeper, the parson's wife, and the grocer's wife, become bilious aud find that they have got nerves, and their children get water in the head, teeth, and convulsions. They are bled and blistered till a physician finds it convenient to settle; the inhabitants become worse and worse every day, and an undertaker is established. The butcher having called the tailor pricklouse over a pot of ale, Snip, to prove his manhood, knocks him down with the goose. Upon this plea an action of assault is brought at the next sessions. An attorney sends his clerk over to take depositions aud collect evidence; the clerk, finding a good opening, sets all the peopl^ by the ears, becomes a pettifogging attorney, and peace flies the village for ever. But the village becomes a town, acquires a bank, a mechanics' institute, a circulating library, and a coterie of old maids; and should it have existed iu happier days, might have gained a corporation, a mayor, a mace, a quarter sessions of its own, a country assembly, the assizes, aud the gallows.
