' Monday's and Tuesday's Posts. FROM THE PARIS PAPERS. FRONTIERS OF SERVIA, Feb. 28. WE have received news that on the 16th of February the Sultan returned to Constantino- ple from his maritime excursion. He Appeared extremely satisfied with his voyage ; and since his return it was ob- served that the Dragoman of the Porte had more frequent conferences with the Dragomans of the European Lega- tions, and that M. Jaubert went more frequently to the Palace of the Porte. It is inferred from this, that the negotiations respecting Greece continue, and that there is still reason to hope that the Ottoman Porte will enter into the views of the European Powers. MONDAY, MARCH 23. WINDSOR— Sunday.— Yesterday afternoon, at half- past one o'clock, the Duke of Wellington arrived at the Castle. His Grace was immediately introduced to the King, with whom he remained closeted until alter three o'clock, when his Grace took leave of his Majesty, and returned to town. . . This forenoon the Duke of Cumberland arrived at Che Castle, on a visit to his Majesty. His Majesty continues to enjoy good health. A Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign office in Downing- street yesterday at three o'clock. Tins Cabinet sat till half- past five. Lord Kenyan had an interview with his Majesty, Friday, when his Lordship presented a number of petitions against concessions to the Catholics, and praying for the dissolution of Parliament. We understand it has been signified to Sir Charles Wetherell, the Attorney- General, that his Ma- jesty lias no further occasion for his services— Courier. It is rumoured that the young; Queen of Por- tugal will leave this country soon for Rio de Janeiro, New York papers just arrived state that the Congress declared on the 16th of February, " that Andrew Jackson was duly elected President of the United States, for four years, from the 4th day of March next, find J. C. Calhoun was duly elected Vice- President, for the same period." According to intelligence from Poland, the intended visit of the Emperor Nicholas to Warsaw in the spring was no longer expected. The price of corn had risen considerably in that country, as large purchases were making at Dantzic for England and Sweden. It was reported at Odessa that several ships laden with pro visions for the Turkish Goverment, had been captured by Admiral Greig. . Accounts from Vienna, dated 10th inst. state that the campaign against Turkey will immediately com- mence. It was ascertained that the Emperor would not join his troops. • It appears from the Irish papers that the people of Ireland contemplate a very handsome remunera- tion for the public services of Messrs. O'Connell, Law- less, and Shiel. It is said that it is contemplated to sub- scribe one hundred thousand pounds— fifty thousand to be given to the Member for Clare, and the remainder to be divided between Messrs. Lawless and Shiel. A letter from Madrid states that the people of Cadiz have offered to defray the expense of an expe- dition of 8HOO men to Cuba in gratitude for his Majesty's declaring Cadiz a free port. Accounts from Bombay, dated Nov. 10, state that the cholera morbus, which had been so fatal, had entirely subsided. The Pallas, Capt. Fitzclarence, it is under- stood, will convey Lieut. General the Earl of Dalhousie, the new Commander- in- Chief in the East Indies, to Calcutta. . Report says that Rear Admiral Sir T. M. Hardy, will succeed to the Jamaica command. A letter from New York mentions the arrival of the Cambrian, in which Mr. Rowland Stephenson was supposed to have embarked. He was net m her, nor has any intelligence been received respecting him. Letters from Rio de Janeiro agree in stating, that the Count de Sabugal was on the point of setting out for Europe on board a Braxilian frigate. Three other frigates were preparing to follow the Count, and there were great preparations making in the Naval Arsenals to equip other vessels, to be immediately dispatched to Europe, with the Portuguese emigrants then at Rio de Janeiro. ... . The English schooner Exquisite has arrived at West Cowes, in ten days from the island of Terceira, and landed General Diodiciano Leon Cabreira and Thomas Thornton, Esq , with despatches from the Mar- quis Palmella, who reports that the island is in a com- plete state of defence against Don Miguel's forces. There lire upwards of 3000 men determined to defend the island for Don Pedro. His Majesty's ships had all left Terceira. The Bank of France has advanced to the Government the sum of forty millions of francs, for six months, at 4 per cent, per annum. The letters from Italy, as well as from Ger- many, are all of a warlike complexion. According to the reports now in circulation at Naples, where the three Ambassadors now are, no hope is left of peace. LISBON, March 14.— The heads of the five patriots who were murdered by Miguel, remained from Friday to Monday last, on the Caes do Sodre— the evening ' Change of the merchants of Lisbon. On Monday morn- ing, the executioner, with a guard, came, and, by means Of a long pole, tossed 4 of them off; the other ( Moreira's) was fastened so tight, that he was obliged to mount the ladder to loosen it. A gallego ( or porter) was then com- pelled, by dint of blows, to carry the heads in a basket to the next grave yard, into which they were thrown with every indignity. The gallows wa3 removed on Monday right. Oil Friday Miguel came to see the heads, and exult in his cruelty. SURREY COUNTY MEETING.— A public meet- ing was held at Epsoin, on Saturday, to consider of pre- senting a petition to the King against farther concession to tile Catholics. The chair was taken by the High She- rift', P. Ladbroke, Esq. Mr. Carter proposed a petition, praying the King to refuse his assent to any bill that shall make an inroad in the constitution. It was se- conded by Mr. Pownall. Mr. Hunt addressed the as- semblage amidst great confusion. Mr. Denison, Mr- C. N. Pallmer, Lord Grantley, and several other gentle- men addressed the meeting, and the question having been put, the petition was carried by a large majority. It was Supposed there were 1500 persons present, of whom about 30 were dissentients. The Irish Hierarchy will, in the present week, represent to the King, in person, the calamitous results of conceding legislative power, in any degree,, to the Roman Catholics; and it is understood that the Bishop of Bath and Wells will shortly present to his Ma- jesty, himself, various important petitions from the Clergy of this diocese, the object of which is to avert Catholic emancipation. It is remarkable that Sir N. Tindal has not spoken upon the Catholic Question this session. The Duke of Wellington was again grossly insulted by a mob, on quitting the Mouse on Friday night. His Grace was on horseback, but was followed by the mob to his. house in Downing- street, where they were dispersed by the exertions of a large posse of constables placed there in attendance. Newspapers from Sydney, in New South Wales, have been received, via Rio de Janeiro, dated the beginning of October. In consequence of the defici- ency of the last crop, wheat had been selling at 20s. per Winchester bushel. The merchant vessel, the Tiger, had arrived from Valparaiso, with wheat and cattle, which of course met with a ready sale. At these dates Copious rains had fallen, and the coming harvest promised fill abundant produce. The market was filled with Eu- ropean goods, and the demand fur them was heavy in the extreme. Beyond this news, the only event of any im- portance was the robbery of the Australian Bank of 14,000/. in bills and cash. Canton papers have arrived to the 16th of November, which represent the trade in British manu- factures as in a complete state of stagnation from excess of exportation. The expenditure by the Commissioners of the Woods and Forests in forming Regent- street is stated at 1,533,5112/. 16s l0d. The probable revenue is esti- mated at 36,000/. | Catalani is to receive 2.000 guineas for 14 nights performance in Dublin. She intends afterwards to visit London, for the purpose of having a farewell conceit, and taking leave of the British public. Dublin was a scene of serious disturbance on Tuesday last ( St. Patrick's Day); an immense mob paraded the streets, with a pole, on which was placed a cap of liberty ; they broke the windows of the Archbishop of Dublin, also of a dissenting house, and of the houses of numerous Protestants. A detachment of armed police, who were sent to disperse them, were attacked with hatchets, iron bars, stones, and other weapons ; the men composing the detachment were much beaten, deprived of their arms, and forced to retreat. A strong reinforce- ment of mounted policemen fired on the mob, wounded several, and too!: others prisoners, by which means tran- quillity was at length restored. A fine bed of oysters has been recently disco- vered, by a fisherman, about 15 miles off Bognor. The news rapidly spread, and a numerous sail of smacks and boats, from various parts, were dredging, last week with great success, on this new ground. CORN- EXCHANGE, Monday.

MONDAY, March 23 The Royal Assent was given by commission to the Mutiny Bill, the Exchequer Bills Bill, and several private bills. Their Lordships were engaged till a quarter before seven o'clock in receiving petitions on the subject of Catholic emancipation— Adjourned. TUESDAY, March 24— The Marquis of London- derry called their Lordships' attention to the amount of taxes imposed on coals now brought to London. He particularly adverted to a clause introduced into the Bill for making approaches to the New London Bridge, by which the city of London are endeavouring to make a former Act imposing a duty upon Coals, which would expire in 1837, permanent. Of this circumstance his Lordship complained in tbe strongest manner, and sug- gested the propriety of appointing a Committee to take the whole subject of the Coal Trade into consideration. The Duke of WellingtoR expressed himself ready to accede to the suggestion of the Marquis, for a Committee of Inquiry, though he accompanied that expression with a declaration that lie had no intention of giving up any of the duties paid to Government. The Bishop of Bath and Wells presented a petition against the Catholic claims signed by between 600 and 700 of the Under Graduates of the University of Cam bridge. They prayed their Lordships to preserve invio- late the liberties and altars of the country. Numeious other petitions, for and against the claims, were presented by noble Lords.— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY, March 23 Numerous petitions were presented for and against tbe Catholic claims ; amongst these ag liust the claims were one from the Graduates of the University of Dublin with 1,100 signatures, and another from the Graduates and Bachelors of the Uni- versity of Cambridge. The order of the day for the committal of the Catholic Relief Bill being read, Mr. Banket rose to propose an amendment to the clause declaring the eligibility of Catholics to civil ofticc and to seats in Parliament: he maintained that the mo- ment Catholics possessed the power of speaking and voting in Parliament, there was an end to the securities for tile Protestant establishment in Ireland, and ultimately in this country : he would therefore propose the omission of the clause. Mr. Peel agreed ( hat the admission of Catholics into Parliament would be attended with some danger; but he would say.( hat greater ikngcts were to be * t » < prchcnded from the continuance of their exclusion. ( Hear, hear.) Here the Government had but lo decide between a choice of evils, and this provision went to guard against the greater by adopting the lesser danger. Regarding this clause, then, as the principal provision of the Bill, lie ( Mr. Peel) could not bring himself to consent to omit it. The. exercise of priestly influence at the present moment in Ireland in political matters was attended with consi- derable danger; nnd he ( Mr. Peel) could not bring him- self to contemplate any thing more formidable than a general election under existing circumstances— while the Roman Catholics possessed the forty shilling franchise, to be exercised as at present under the absolute control and influence of the Catholic priests. He would adhere to tlie provision which was objected to by the Hon. members, as he was certain that it was of all others cal- culated to satisfy the Catholics, and to promote the esta- blishment of the peace arid tranquility of the country. ( Hear, hear.) Mr. Moore seconded the amendment, convinced that if Roman Catholics were introduced into Parliament, they would exercise eheir power to advance the interests of their own Church, and to oppose and counteract the interests of the Established Religion and Government of the country. The Committee divided— For the amendment, 84 ; against it, 207; majority, 123. After two or three amendments had been withdrawn, a division took place upon an amendment proposed by Mr. Esteokrt, to add after the words " any intention to sub- vert," or " make any attempt to subvert or injure." It was lost by a majority of 262 to 90. Upon the motion of Mr. Peel, the words " So help me God" were added to the Declaration, thereby converting it into an oath— The House then adjourned. TUESDAY, March 24— Lord Encombe presented a petition from the inhabitants of Nasing, in Essex, pray- ing that no further concessions be grunted to the Roman Catholics. This petition was signed by all the male in- habitants of the parish except four. He fully concurred in the prayer of the petitioners, being convinced that no further concessions could be granted to the Roman Ca- tholics with safety to the constitution. He might be pardoned for entertaining that conviction, seeing that he had the authority of the Prime Minister of England to back him, who had publicly declared it to be his opinion, that the Roman Catholics would never rest till they had got more than they asked for by these measures. Numerous other petitions were presented on the subject of the Catholic claims, the great majority of which prayed that the House would not concede the claims. Mr. Robinson presented a petition from 2.7311 operative weavers of Manchester, Salford, and the vicinity, who complained in the most pathetic terms of the state of dis- tress to which they were reduced by the Act of 1826, and praved for a renewal of the prohibition of the importation of French silks, by which their home trade was ruined. Mr. R. Colborne wished to know what was the inten- tion of the Chancellor of the Exchequer respecting the renewal of the Assessed Taxes' Composition Act. It would expire in April 1831, and notice should be given on the fitli of April next, by those who wished to regu- late their establishment according to this Act. The Chancellor of the Exchequer said that the Act, as it stood, would expire in April 1831, but the notices would not be necessary in April, but in October. It was his wish to have consolidated all the Acts respecting Assessed Taxes, but he found he could not accomplish that task in the present session. His intention was to bring in a short Bill to continue the existing Act for one year from April 1831. Mr, Peel presented a petition from the Secular Clergy of the Roman Catholic persuasion in Dublin, praying that no restrictions be introduced into the Catholic Relief Bill, with respect to the monastic orders. The House having resolved itself into a Committee on the Roman Catholic Relief Bill, an amendment was pro- posed by Mr. Peel, relative to Roman Catholics voting at elections, and being elected upon taking the oath. Mr. R. Dundas complained that the Bill infringed the Act of Union with Scotland ; because, by the Act of Union, it was provided, for the security of the Episcopal and Presbyterian religions, that the 16 Peers and 45 Commoners who were to represent Scotland in the Par- liament of the United Kingdom, should be Protestant. Notwithstandrng the weight which Mr. Dundas attached to his argument, it was agreed that no difference should be made in this respect between England and Scotland ; that Roman Catholics, who were ineligible for England before the adoption of this measure, were to be eligible after it. ' I'lie clause was carried by a large majority. In'the clause which excepted certain offices from being held by Roman Catholics, an amendment was proposed hy Mr. Peel and adopted, for inserting the following words " the Offices of Guardians or Justices of the United Kingdom, or Regent of the United Kingdom, during the absence of his Majesty or his Successors from the same, under whatever name, style, or title, such offices may be oinstituted or appointed/' Tlie Marquis of Chandos wished to extend the number of offices excepted, by the insertion before the name of " the Lord Chancellor," of the words, " First Lord Commissioner of his Majesty's Treasury," because, hy the clause as it stood at present, the First Lord, who was considered as the Prime Minister, might be a Roman Catholic. The amendment was opposed upon several grounds: first, that the First Lord of the Treasury was tot necessarily Prime Minister. The Foreign Secretary of State might be, and had been, Prime Minister. Next, that the Church Patronage was not inherent in the office ( if First Lord of the Treasury— And, thirdly, because if a Roman Catholic should become Prime Minister, he was debarred by a special clause in the Bill from inter- fering with the disposal of the Church Patronage. The amendment proposed by the Marquis of Chandos was negatived by a majority of 218 to 08. Sir Ed. Knatchbull proposed an amendment excluding Roman Catholics from the Privy Council, which was re- jected. without a division. Some other amendments of minor importance were also rejected. In the ! lth clause relative to Presentations to Ecclesi- astical Benefices, the exercise of the right of presentation was committed to the Archbishop of Canterbury for the time being, instead of being given to Commissioners. The 16th clause, enacting that Roman Catholics shall not assume, under a penalty of 1001. for each offence, the lilies to Sees or Deaneries which belong to the Arch- bishops, Bishops, and Deans of the Established Church in England or Ireland, was agreed to without much discussion. The 20th clause, relative to the Jesuits and religious orders, occasioned some debate, but no alteration was made in it. A fresh clause was agreed to, upon the motion of Mr. Peel, which provides that no person in holy orders of the Church of Rome shall be capable of being elected a Member ; and that if any Member shall take or receive holy orders from the Church of Rome, his seat shall become void. The House then resumed, and the. report, was ordered to be taken into further consideration on Friday. The further consideration of the report of the Qualifi- cation of Freeholders' Bill was postponed til Thursday. — Adjourned. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25. Duel between the Duke of Wellington and Earl Winchilsea.— On Saturday morning at eiglit o'clock a meeting took place in Battersea fields between these dis- tinguished individuals, in consequence of Lord Winchil- sea having addressed a letter to the Secretary of King's College ( of which mention was made in last week's Jour- nal), containing severe reflections on the noble Duke for his conduct on the Catholic question. A correspondence ensued between the parties, through the medium of Sir Henry Hardinge on the behalf of the Noble Duke, and Earl Falmouth for Earl Winchilsea— the Duke of Wellington having first desired to know if the letter was written by, and published under the athority of, the Noble Eatl. Both^ were admitted : and the Duke demanded a retraction of a passage imputing motives for his conduct which tended to disgrace and criminate him, and also demanding that the Earl should make tbe same acknowledgments to the Duke in writing. This was re- fused, unless the Duke would admit, that, at the time he presided at the meeting for the establishment of the College, jhe did not contemplate the measures now in progress for breaking in npon the Constitution. The Duke, in reply, would not admit that any man had a right to call upon him to justify himself from charges which his fancy might suggest, or to publish a highly offensive opinion that he was actuated by disgraceful and criminal motives; concluding by expressing his opinion that the Noble Earl would give him reparation for so unprovoked an insult. A meeting was consequently decided on, and on Saturday the parties met, the Duke arriving on ' he ground on horseback, accompanied by Sir Henry Hardinge, and followed by Earl Winchilsea, and Earl Falmouth, in a carriage and four. After the neces- sary preliminaries had been settled, the parties took their ground at a distance of 12 paces; the Duke of Welling- ton fired first, passing a bullet through the lappel of Lord W.' s coat on the left side; Earl Winchilsea immediately discharged his pistol in the air. Afier some discussion, the following Memorandum was delivered by Lord Fal- mouth to Sir Henry Hardinge, and accepted by Sir Henry as a satisfactory reparation to the Duke of Wel- lington : — " March 21, 1829— Having given the Duke of Wel- lington the usual satisfaction for the affront he conceived himself to have received from me, through my public letter of Monday last, and having thus placed myself in a different situation from that in which I stood when his Grace communicated with me, through Sir Henry Har- dinge and Lord Falmouth, on the subject of that letter, before the meeting took place, I do not now hesitate to declare, . of my own accord, that, in apology, I regret having unadvissdly published an opinion which the Noble Duke states to have charged him with disgraceful and criminal motives in a certain transaction which took place nearly a year ago. I also declare, that I shall cause this expression of regret to be inserted in the Standard newspaper, ?. s the same channel through which the letter in question was given to the public. ( Signed) " WINCHILSEA & NOTTINGHAM." The Duke wished Lord Winchilsea good morning, and, the compliment being returned, tbe parties left the ground and returned to town. His Grace soon afterwards repaired to Windsor Castle, on a visit to the King. The King is said to have expres* erl to the Duke of Wellington, his perfect approbation of his con. duct in his late affair with the Earl of Winchilsea. It is a fact worthy of remark, that there is nothing in the proposed law to prevent a King of Great Britain from making a Roman Catholic his Queen ; or to prevent a reigningQueen of Great Britain from marrying a Roman Catholic husband. Tire Anti- Catholic Petitions, signed hy the Protestant inhabitants of Cheltenham, have been pre- sented to the two Houses of Parliament. The number of the petitioners amounted to upwards of 4300. It was reported pretty generally in the Court of Chancery, this morning, that Sir James Scarlett is again lo be Attorney- General. A petition from the Ladies of Falmouth is about to be presented to his Majesty against concession to the Roman Catholics. It has received upwards of 200 signatures. It is to be printed on Gatin in gold letters. The Irish Protestant petition presented to the House of Lords on Thursday by the Duke of Cum- berland occupied one thousand eight hundred skins of parchment. A noble Marquess, who has access to the best sources of information, is said to have s. ated, that the majority in the House of Lords on the Catholic Re- lief bill will be certainly 80. The Lord Mayor has invited all his Majesty's Ministers, several Members of both Houses of Parlia- ment, & c. & c., to dine with him on the 8th of April, when Mr. Peel is to receive the gift of the freedom of the city. Lord Dudley is upon . the eve of quitting England for a long continental tour. The establishment of servants, & c. at his seat at Himley. Worcestershire, has been broken up. The gamekeepers have been dis- charged, and the extensive preserves are to be forbidden ground to the neighbouring sportmen. A deputation of fourteen gentlemen, from the different Insurance Offices, headed by Mr. Irving, M. P., Mr. Buxton, M. P., and Mr. Alexander, waited on the Chancellor of the Exchequer on Saturday morning at the Treasury, and had a conference, which lasted about an hour, with that Minister. It is the intention of the inhabitants of Newark lo present Mr. Sergeant Wilde with a piece of plate as a testimony of their sincere regard. Mr. Lawless has published in a letter to Lord Morpeth, some severe reflections on " the Bur- dens and Villiers Stuarts and Tuites and Rices," of the House of Commons, for not opposing the Irish Disfran- chisement Bill; lie says they were " borne into the House on the shoulders of forty shilling freeholders;" and asks, " where are the Reformers of England? Where are the Cobbetts and the Hunts ? this is the time to speak out— the wolf is oithis walk, and will soon reach the shores of England— the foity shilling freeholders of England will be put down." Mr. Lawless, tells. Lord, Morpeth, that " if the Bill of Emancipation passes, with such a condition as the disfranchisement of my poor countrymen, your Act of Parliament will be a proclama- tion of war, and the convulsion in Ireland will be ten times greater and more desperate than ever previously existed." True bills have been found at the Monaghan assizes against Mr- Lawless. THE PORTSMOUTH MURDERS— On Friday last John Stacey the younger, and his father, John Sta- cey the elder, were brought before the mayor ami ma- gistrates of Portsmouth, to have thedepositionsiead over to them relative to the horrid murder of Mr. Langtrey and his housekeeper. A chain of the most satisfactory evidence was adduced, fixing clearly the guilt of the mur- ders upon the son, and strongly implicating the father, who appeared to have been privy to the act after, if not preceding the murder. He acknowledged receiving the money and hiding it in the bank where it was discovered, and that his son had informed him he had murdered the iged couple, and that, the possession of the property, f! 26/. 16*. fir/, was the result of the atrocious deed, in Tact, the old man had, preceding the murders and up to his apprehension, mentioned his expectation of soon pos- sessing property that would enable him to live again as he formerly had done. The mayor and magistrates came to the conclusion, that there was quite sufficient to commit tlie younger to Winchester as principal in the murder, and his father, as ari accessary after the fact; they were accordingly removed to Winchester gaol next morning. When the prisoners were placed in the dock, the father appeared greatly agitated, while the son bore an air of composure, which he maintained during the time that was occupied ( two hours and a half) in reading the depo- sitions : he avoided looking at his father, or meeting tbe glance of any individual; and he averted his eye from a knife which was produced, and which it is supposed he tis- d in committing the murders. On Friday evening a most distressing scene took place in an interview between the younger Stacey and his three sisters. As soon as they entered his cell, he threw him- self on his knees before them, and asked to be forgiven. They instantly fell on theirs in great grief, and sobbed piteously. They enjiftned him not to indulge in any hope that mercy would be extended to him in this world, but to endeavour to tind consolation in prayer, and look to heaven for pardon. On their quitting him, he bade them a last farewell, and said that he should never see them again. The Roman Catholic Relief Bill h^ s passed the Committee; it is to be reported on Friday, and to be read a third time on Monday. An Address to the King was on Monday Id id down for signatures at the Bazaar, Quiet- street, Bath, praying his Majesty to dissolve a Parliament which " misrepresents the feelings, and disregards the petitions, of its constituents." Some surprise has been expressed at Mr. Tierney's total silence during the present Session. The High Sheriff of Herefordshire has, in compliance with a requisition, appointed a county meet- ing for Saturday the 28th instant, to consider the pro- priety of petitioning the King not to give the Royal Assent to the Catholic Bill, and to dissolve Parlioment. Private letters from St. Petersburg, in the German papers, express a doubt whether the Emperor Nicholas will repair to the army, or remain in his capital. The powers with which he has invested General Die bitsch are so extensive, that they supersede the neces- sity of another Commander- in- Chief. He is left to form his own plans, and is said to have taken the whole responsibility of the war upon himself. The confidence placed in him by the Emperor had excited much jea- lousy. He is known, however, to possess great talents, and a spirit of enterprise which must lead to more deci- sive results, whether favourable or unfavourable, than those of the last campaign. Letters from the frontiers of Moldavia say that General Count Diebifsch, immediately upon his arrival from St. Petersburg at Jassy, sent orders to the Commanders of all the corps of the Russian army on t: e left bank of the Dar. ube to concentrate their troops as speedily as possible, in order to be able to commence hos- tilities at the shortest notice. The left bank of the Da- nube is cleared at almost every point from the Turks. In the Brussels papers to the 21st inst. it is said, in an article from the frontiers of Russia, that the Emperor will leave St. Petersburgh on tile 4th of May, that he is to be at Warsaw on the 14th, and that. he is to have an interview with the King of Prussia on the Polish frontiers. The Grand Duke Michael is said. tlie Allgemeine Zeitung of the 17th, to have arriverf'at the theatre of war, for the purpose of re- opening,- tile cam- paign, and important operations were expected to take place immediataly on the banks of the Danube. BERLIN, March 10.— As his Imperial High- ness the Grand Duke Michael has arrived at the theatre of war, we expect that we shall soon hear of important operations on the Danube. PREFERRED.— The Rev. R. Twopeny, B, D. Fellow of St. John's College, Cambridge, to the Vicarage of North Stoke, Oxon ; patrons, the Master and Fellows. — The Rev. John Dymoke, B. A., to the united Rec- tories of Scrivelsby with Dalderby, Lincolnshire; patron, Henry Dymoke, Esq. the Hon. the King's Champion . The Rev. Richard Lee, S. C.

Parham, to the Vicarage of Holne, Devon The Rev. James Horseman, M. A. Rector of Little Gaddesden, Herts, to the Rectory of Middle Salop. The honorary degree of LL. D. has been con- ferred, by the University of Glasgow, on Mr. R. Hone, of Southgate House, in this city. The country bank notes under fire pounds are gradually disappearing, and gold is substituted. Al- though bankers are allowed till the 5th of April, many firms have ceased to issue them. There is no law to pro- hibit their circulation by the public, but after the 5th of April, if paid into the bank from whence they were issued, the bankers are prohibited by law from re- issuing them. ANATOMY.—( From the Medical Gazette.)— We would ask any one requiring to be cut for the stone, whether he would apply to a surgeon who had learned anatomy practically on the human body, or a dilettante operator, whose knowledge was derived from books and drawings? It is high time that the public should be told the truth. The laws enforce dissection as an indispensable part of the education of medical men— the pablic require it of them ; they must, therefore, either toleiate it, or dispense with medical and surgical responsibility. If natural feelings are outraged by the mode in which a knowledge of anatomy is at present acquired, it is for the legislature and the public to provide a remedy. The pro- fession have long called for one, and are, at this moment, with one voice, entreating parliament to adopt a plan which shall place their profession on the same footing as it is in other countries, or relieve them from obligations which, for inconsistency and oppression, have no parallel. VACCINATION.— The annual report of the National Vaccine Establishment has just been made. The number of persons who have died of small- pox in the course of the last year, within the Bills of Mortality, amounts to 598. More than 10,000 of the poor have been vaccinated in London and its neighbourhood since the last leport. No patient was admitted into the SmAll- Pox Hospital last year under small- pox, after vaccina, tion, who had been vaccinated by an officer at' the esta- blishment. With such facts it is strange tint so many are insensible to the protective process, or careless enough to forego the resourse which the charity of Parliamenl humanely provides for its safety? A few mornings ago. Sir Thomas Lethbridge received a parcel by the Western mail, accompanied by a note from his former adherents at Taunton; and on examination it was found to contain an halter. A cushat, or wood- pigeon, was shot a few days ago in the neighbourhood of Witton- le- Wear, in the stomach of which was found a brass screw, an inch and a half in length, and an inch and a quarter in cir- cumference Durham Advertiser. The bodies of a female and a youth were discovered a few days ago on board a vessel from Lime- rick containing pickled pork. An excise officer sus- pecting the cask in question to contain exciseable liquor, bored the head and tasted the liquor two or three times, which induced him to have the cask opened. The bo- dies were preserved in brine. A hay- tick of 20 tons, belonging to Mr. Rain- bow, grazier, of Neithrop, Banbury, was consumed AVednesday evening, owing to a boy shooting crows in a farm- yard. Execution at the Old Bailey.— Yesterday morning four unhappy criminals underwent the extreme penalty of the law, opposite the debtor's door, Newgate, viz.:— Joseph Redgard, aged 23; Wm, Kelly, aged 21; Thomas Birmingham, aged 21; and Charles Goodlad, aged 22 The first diree culprits were convicted at the last Old Bailey sessions of a highway robbery, attended with great aggravation, on the person of Mr. Munroe, on the night of the 18th of January last- Goodlad was con- victed of robbing his master, Mr. Geddes, of Stafford- row, Pimlico, of plate and other property, to the value of 170/. The following is a copy of a Petition pre- sented on the 19th instant by Mr. Monck, Member for Reading :— To the Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in Parliament assembled. The humble Petition of WILLIAM HALLETT, a Magistrate of Berkshire, SHEWETH,— That your petitioner, without troubling your Honourable House with his own sentiments on the propriety of admitting Roman Catholics into the two Houses of Parliament, begs to observe, that although party men, and those not conversant with the persevering zeal of Papists for their religion, deny the necessity of securities to guard the Protestant Church, your petitioner feels confident that no stone will ever be left unturned by Papists, to endeavour to restore the religion of their ancestors; and meritoriously, their duty to God being paramount to all human laws and restrictions; and be- lieving, as they do, that their creed is the only one which is acceptable in the sight of the Almighty, and that all disbelievers are Heretics, and doomed to perdition : your petitioner, therefore, prays for the most serious attention of your Honourable House, to what he is convinced would be a security, and the only principal one that could be safely relied upon; which is, an effectual Re- form in the Representation of the People, thereby to secure a return to Parliament of Protestant Members, in preference to Roman Catholics ; and to prevent a recur- rence of thc. se disgraceful practices, which were said to be prevalent some years ago, when a Nabob of Arcot purchased seven seats, and a French Minister's mistress one; practices which, if not frustrated, might be resorted to for the purpose of filling some future House of Commons with Papists, to represent this Protestant nation. Your petitioner is well satisfied, that nothing can shake the foundation of the Protestant Church, but the want of a timely reform; and that an immediate reform, under existing circumstances, would be highly beneficial to the establishment; and, perhaps, such a one, as the Bishop of Landaff, Dr. Watson, and several hundreds of cler- gymen, are said to have proposed, for removing the dregs of popery ; and, above all, for remunerating the Ministers of the Church for their services, by some eligible mode, in lieu of that odious and galling custom of tithing the profits which arise out of the husbundman's capital and industry. Your petitioner further prays, that for the peace and welfare of Ireland, your honourable House would, forth- with, establish a lasting provision for the distressed poor of that country; not doubting that you will bear in mind, that as those wretched creatures did not bring themselves into the world, and are lestrained from seeking their food, as their forefathers were wont to do, in days of vore, and as nature would point out, it is the bounden duty of legislators to protect them from hunger and nakedness : your petitioner meaning, that the whole burden and management of the poor should fall upon landlords, and not upon tenants who have their own occupations to attend to; and that absentees should be rated in a higher degree than those who spend their in- come where it is acquired. Your petitioner lastly prays, that your Honourable House will postpone the passing of " A Bill for the relief of his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects," or of any other Bill of a similar tendency, until an effectual Reform in the Representation shall have been effected, for the purpose of emancipating Protestants, as well as Catholics, and other Dissenters; and for permanently securing the rights, and liberties of the people. And your petitioner will ever pray. WILLIAM HALLETT. Candy's, Southampton, 14th March 1829. The Stewards for the next Gloucester Music Meeting are the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of the dio- cese ; the Right Hon. and Rev. Lord Wm. Somerset; the Rev. F. Twisleton, rector of Addlestrop; Harry Waller, Esq. of Farmington; T. B. Estcourt, jun. Esq.; and Thos. Kingscote, Esq. EXETER ' CHANGE.— This ancient Repository is at length doomed to the ordeal of the hammer. There is a project now in agitation for con- structing a Rail Road from London to Fenny Stratford. The distance by such road will be about 43 miles, being three miles nearer than by the turnpike road. It is con- ceived that the accomplishment of such a project would afford the inhabitants of the places near which the line of road is proposed to puss, a means of obtaining all kinds of commodities, and especially coals, at a reduction ef about three- fourths of the present rate of carriage. The newspapers in the United Kingdom amount to 308, of which 89 appear in Scotland and Ire- land In London there are 55, of which 13 issue daily ( 7 of them being morning papers); about 40,000 copies arc daily circulated by these establishments. The copy- right of the Times ( which has the greatest circulation, printing nearly 10,( iOl) daily) is estimated at from 100,000/. to 120.000/.; and it is said that the shareholders have sometimes divided a profit of 24,000/. per annum, al- though the stamp and Excise duties paid to Government amount to 68,000/. per annum.— The daily circulation of the Morning Herald is said to be 8,000, anil that of the Morning Chronicle 4,000. The discovery of Herculaneum was effected by accident. In 1713, the Prince d'Elbeuf settled in the vicinity of Portici, where some remarkable objects were discovered by a man in digging a well at his house, and the Prince was induced to continue tlie excavation. The well, it appears, came directly down upon the theatre; and statues of Hercules and Cleopatra were speedily dis- covered. These induced further excavations, and in time led to the discovery of all the antiquities which have been brought forth from this extraordinary city. SHOWERS OF FROGS.—" As two gentlemen wee sitting conversing on a causeway pillar near Bush- mills, they were very much surprised by ar, unusually heavy shower of frogs, half formed, falling in all direc- tions; some of which are preserved in spirits o(' win;', and are now exhibited to tlie curious by the two resilient apothecaries in Bushmills." ( Belfast Chron.) Can there be any truth in this strange assertion ? When a boy, I remember having heard of young frogs being found at the top of a church steeple.— Magazine of Natural History. A gentleman of Kingsclere, Hants, has had a cow 21 years of age, which has pioduced 21 calves, 300 hogsheads of milk, and 4 tons of butler, altogether amounting in value to 500/. When killed the fat of the cow weighed more than the lean and bones together. Several gentlemen have recently succeeded in relieving themselves from severe fits of gout by covering the parts affected thickly with raw cotton ; the kind called Uplands has been found to answer very well. When a sufficient quantity has been well bound about the hand or foot overnight, all traces of the complaint have, in various instances, been removed before morning Manchester Guardian. Remedy for Chilblains.— Mr. Henry Day, in a letter to the editor of the Lancet, says:—" Being severely afflicted with chilblains, and having had recourse to the various remedies generally recommended, with- out benefit, I made a trial of the tincture of iodine. It answered my fullest expectations, for after two or three applications to the affected parts, it restored them to their natural state." GRAPES.— J. Murray, Esq. F. S. A. F. L. S. F. H. S., & c. savs:—" I saw two parcels of grapes, as dissimilar as could well be imagined; the one seemed equal to foreign, large and rich ; the other, scarcely edible. I was surprised to hear that they were taken from the same tree, the growth of England, and of the open garden. The only difference was, the fine grapes were such bunches as happened to be tied up in black crape, and the others in white gauze, merely done to protect them from the attacks of birds and insects. On the latter information, my surprise subsided." Remedy against the Black Fly in Turnips.— A farmer, who farmed extensively, had his turnips sub- ject, for a good many years, to the attack of the black fly, in common with most of his neighbours. He was advised by some one who had tried with success what he recommended, to rub the turnip- seed among flour of sul- phur, and to let it lie amongst it for some time, and then sow both seed and sulphur together. By persevering in this practice for 15 years, he evaded the attacks of the fly all that time, which was as long as he farmed. TRANSPLANTING TURNIPS.— A correspondent in the Gardener's Magazine says, for many years I have sown turnip seed on any little vacant spot, and, when the plants had two or three leaves, planted them out, by a line, in regular rows. Nothing can succeed better, or produce finer roots; hardly one in twenty dies. Near Seldun, the leaves of the nut and the elm are gathered when in their prime, and ground into powder: in this state they are given to swine, mixed with their customary drink, in the winter; and . ar author was assured that this food fattened them as well as barley- meal— Foreign Review. The Tea Shrub has been naturalized in Java with complete success, so that, sooner or later, the Chinese monopoly will come to an end. USE OF THE DAHLIA.— The stalks and leaves make a wholesome food for pigs, sheep, and asses; they are also eaten by deer and cows, and they are, in a dried state, readily eaten by lambs and young goats. When cultivated as cattle food, the stalks may be cut over two or three times in one season. The tubers may be eaten both by men and cattle, but they are neither so agreeable nor so nourishing as the potato.— Gardener's Magazine. Several hundred Almonds ripened last year in the garden of Harviestown, in the county of Clack- mannan, in the open air, upon standard trees". The fruit was quite as large, and said to be as fully flavoured, as the best Jordan almonds. Mr. Bell, farmer, of Heath Hall, raised two good crops of potatoes last year. The first crop was planted on the 12th of April and raised on the 12th of July; the produce was abundant. The moment the ground was cleared, the plough was put in motion, and the whole dunged and planted a second time. This oc- curred on the 14th of July, and on the 23d of October a second crop was raised, larger and in better condition than the first. The land of course, from the dung used, was in such heart, that an excellent crop of wheat was expected to follow.— Dumfries Courier. Thirty thousand mulberry trees are now grow- ing on the estate of Lord Kingston, in the county of Cork, who sends quantities of raw silk to the market. Salt is very serviceable in destroying the grass, weeds, & c. in courts, yards, and approach roads. It is now so cheap as to produce considerable saving, compared with haud- weeding. The potatoe, whence our domestic stock is derived, is an- inhabitant of South America, and is, at this time, thriving without human care or protection in Chile. Mr. Jessop obtains immense crops of potatoes by the following mode of culture :— Double- dig the ground, and, without manuring, plant the potatoes whole, 2 feet apart each way. When the plants rise, hoe and draw the earth up to them, moulding entirely round each plant, by which mode all have room to swell and bring their tubers to perfection. Afterwards pick off the blos- soms, a practice which has been proved by Mr. Knight to add to the produce one ton pet acre. Every building in Amsterdam stands upon enormous piles; and it was in allusion to this forest foundation, that Erasmus, when he first visited this magnificent city, observed, " that lie had reached a place, the inhabitants of which lived like crows upon the tops of trees." There is now in the possession of a person in the parish of Mere, a white blackbird and a black one both hatched in one nest, also a white lark and a coloured one both hatched also in one nest; he has also another blackbird marked like a magpie. The whole of the above are cock birds, and remarkably tame. The body of a man, supposed to have been dead many centuries, was lately found in a state of per- fect preservation in a peat bog in Ireland. 12is dress, which was a cow hide tied round his body, was also well preserved. The cantharides fly is generally collected from tlie olive- trees in Sicily and the south of France. SPONGE FISHERY.— The sponge is abundant in the sea which washes the shores of the Cyclades ; and the inhabitants ( who from practice are excellent divers) derive their maintenance principally from selling it. A party proceeds in a boat furnished with a large stone attached to a rope, which the dive*, takes in his hands, and plunges down heail- foremost from the stern, the stone accelerating his descent; after passing about 2 minutes in detaching the sponge, and becoming exhausted, he makes a signal to his companions, who haul him up quickly. An immensely fat butcher called at St. Bar- tholomew's hospital a few days ago, to inform the super- intending surgeon that he had bequeathed his body to the hospital for dissection, as he wished to " do away with the ivulgar prejudice against cutting people up after they are dead." He said he had " tackled" his wife's demurs by leaving her either his body or his money, which she choosed. The surgeon, in thanking him for his disin- terested display of his love of the science of anatomy, said this would be as fat a legacy as was ever made to the hospital. To extract stains of oil from satins, stuffs, or paper, take the burnt ashes of sheep's bones, and put them warm upon and under the part stained : place there- upon a weight, and let it remain so for one night. If tbe stain be not thoroughly effaced, repeat the operation till it disappears. It is necessary to remark, that this powder, if the weight be left upon the pait too long, will efface the printed characters upon paper. To prevent swallows building in windows, rub the places where they usually build with oil or soft soap, and tiie swallows will not only desist from attempt- ing to build their nests on the unctuous surface, but re frain from doing so long after the oily or soapy matter lias been carried off'. Raffles held in public- houses are illegal, and subject the landlord to 500/. penalty. Mr. Buckingham's lectures on the East India Company's monopoly, have been very favourably received at Bristol. In his concluding lecture there on Saturday, he touched upon the local advantages of Bristol for the shipment of Iron from Wales and Woollen Goods from Gloucestarshire anil Somerset, and referred to a Report published 1812 by the most eminent merchants in Bristol, stating the hardships they expressed in not being able to profit by those local advantages:— he pourtrayed the ad- vantages of a free trade to China ; shewed the great monopoly in the article of Tea; ridiculed the dangers which the India Company pretended would arise from English Sailors being admited to visit the shores of China, whilst their own sailors and those of America were suffered with impunity; he recapitulated the hardships which Englishmen suffered from not being allowed to participate in the benefits of the Trade; he apostrophised the English flag, which he said Boated in every part of the Globe as an ensign of honor, but in India was an ensign of disgrace to an Englishman ; and concluded by calling upon the Citizens of Bristol to come forward when the time of action arrived, and by a long pull, a strong pull, and a pull altogether, put an end to an odious Monopoly, which hud been as injurious to its promoters as it was to the claims of humanity and the interests of the country. The process of Macadamizing proceeds very fast in the parish of Marylebone ; most of the streets ar. d squares having. undergone, or being destined speedily to undergo, the operation. FIGHTS TO COME:— March 31, Redmond and Jones, 100/. a side—- April 7, Neal and Young Dutch Sam, 100/. a side— May 15, Jones and Watson, 50/. a side. WARD the PUGILIST.— It is the opinion of the members of the Fair Play Club, and of many amateuis of pugilism, that Ward was lately bribed not to fight Simon Byrne at Leicester, and that he thereby betrayed his backers. He has, however, just published, a fresh challenge to Byrne, saying lie will fight hinrt or any man come from where he may, for one or two hundred a side. James Cliffe, who was found guilty of the murder of his wife, was executed at Lancaster on Mon- day— John Williams, the attorney, convuied of for,: cry, has been reprieved. The incendiary Martia attempted to make his his escape from York City Jail on Friday night. It having been thought necessary for a person to sleep in the sam- room with him, as a guard, the hospital room wasfixeu upon, in which there were two beds. In this room was a fireplace— and on Friday nierlit, as usual, Martin slept in one bed, and the guard in ihe other. The attendant was awake till half- past 11, and was dis- turbed by a knocking apparently without the room, but not apprehending any thing wrong, he fell asleep, and slept from that time till two in the morning. In the interim Martin arose, and having torn his bed- rug in lengths, tied those together, and thus formed a rope of nine yards long. This he fastened round his ancles, and with only his shirt and drawers on, ascended the chimney. The rope was intended to assist in his descent from the top ( of the prison, but he unexpectedly found an iron grate near the top of the chimney, and was consequently obliged again to descend. This he did, and after having placed the sooty shirt under his bed, and swept the soot also under it, he put on his flannel dress, and retired to rest. About half- past six Martin went down stairs hastily into the yartl of the prison ; the attendant followed him, and found him washing himself— but the dirty state of the room, antl of his person, together with two bricks being laid in the fire- place, proved the fact that an escape had been attempted. Martin was charged with it, and he acknowledged it r he also said, that had he been a less person, he could have effected his purpose— but that it was the " will of God" that he should make the attempt and be frustrated. UNNATURAL CRUELTY.— A man named James Smith and his wife were on Tuesday committed by the Bathforum magistrates, for baibarous cruelty to a son of Smith by a former wife. It appeared from the statement of the child, who exhibited marks of inhuman treat- ment, that his stepmother had for a considerable time past deprived him of sufficient food, and that whenever he asked for more he was refused and beaten by her. Smith's wife has two children by her present husband, who appear to be well treated, being well clothed, and of healthy appearance. This poor child said he had not slept on a bed for many months past, and the detail of the cruelties alleged to have been practised upon him was it is understood, of the most revolting description. The complaints of the child to the neighbours induced them to investigate the affair, and to cause Smith and his wife to be apprehended. On F'riday night Smith kicked the child for several yards in the street, and afterwards took him up in his arms, and dashed him upon the stones, saying, " I'll give him a benefit."— Smith and his wife have been sent to Shepton Mallett, to take their trial at the assizes. CORN- EXCHANGE, March 25.— We had a few country buyers at market this morning, when the mealing trade was tolerably brisk at last Monday's quo- tation. Barley continues nominally as on Monday, there being but little fit for malting. However objectionable the pretended infal- libility of medicines denominated " Patent" may be justly doubted, we cannot, at the same time, withhold our meed of praise from the inventors of those medicines which, in particular complaints, have proved highly bene- ficial to mankind. For asthmatic and consumptive dis- orders, the " CORDIAL HALM OF LIFE," a medicint prepared by Dr. LAMERT, has, we understand, from tilt use of it, produced the most salutary effects, in the re- storation of many individuals ( who had, for years, la- boured undir asthma and consumption) to their original sanity of constitution. [ 6032 LIFE INSURANCE.— This excellent scheme ot domestic economy is now become very generally under- stood, and resorted to, but the public are not sufficiently alive to the great difference which there is in the relative stability and benefits of the Insurance Offices. No less than twenty of them have broken up in about as many years, all of which, in their turn, had boasted of their large capitals and security. More painful disappointments can scarcely be imagined than families suffer, who are thus bereft of the benefits intended to be provided for them through years of economy. An instance of this kind occurred lately, in the case of Gordon, v. the Directors of the National Union Life and fire Office. This concern had failed, and the plaintiff, who had paid 4,500/. into it after a long and expensive litigation, found himself unable to recover a single shilling ! How much then it behoves all persons, about to enter into the lasting engagement of insuring their lives, to examine well into the stability and principles of their office, particularly if it hold out the lure of cheapness. This perilous induce- ment would have no weight, if persons only considered that there is an Office, where the surplus, after paying losses and expenses, is applied to the increase of the sums insured, or the diminution of future premiums. In the PROVIDENT LIFE OFFICE, this advantage has been realized to several thousands of persons, during nearly a quarter of a century, and has amounted to so much as, in some cases, to extinguish the future annual payments. There are other Life Offices which have followed The Provident, in offering a share of the profits lo the in- sured ; but they have failed to realise profits altogether, or they give up only a half or a third ; the Shareholders retaining the rest: but in The Provident, fourteen parts in fifteen are actually divided among the insured. The original members only take a fifteenth part for their gua- rantee of capital, and exoneration of the insured from all risk. These are substantial benefits.

WHEN it is considered how many thousands have fallen untimely victims to that most destructive ot all diseases, Phthisis Pulmonale ( Consumption of the Lungs), the value of a Medicine that can arrest in any degree that most fatal malady wi 1 appear, as indeed it is, invaluable.

THE CORDIAL BALM of RAKA- SIRI is intended to relieve those persons who, by an immoderate indulgence of their passions, have ruined their constitutions, or in their way to the consummation of that deplorable state, are affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach, as the va- rious affections of the nervous system, obstinate gleets, involuntary emissions, excesses, irregularity, obstructions of certain evacuations, weaknesses, total impotcncv, bar- renness, & c.

To such as these the CORDIAL BALM of RAKASIRI will afford the most permanent relief, and restore to the enjoyment of the comforts of life. Prepared only by Drs. C. and J.

LETTERS from J assy inform us that J the opening of the campaign is expected to take very shortly, as the weather is so mild that the ice in the Danube has almost entirely disappeared. Though the army has a great number of sick, the soldiers are ani- mated with the greatest zeal. General Diebitsch, the new Commander- in- Chief, who has arrived at Jassy, has had a grand review of the troops. Hopes were still en- tertained ill the army that the Emperor will arrive in a few weeks. . CORFU, Feb. 22 Recent letters from Janina an- nounce that Redschid Pacha had received from Constan- tinople the news of his nomination to the post of Grand Vizir.

WEDNESDAY, March 25— The Militia Ballot Suspension Bill was read a first time. Oil the motion of the Earl of Malmesbury, several re- turns were ordered of the quantity of Foreign Grain im- ported into this country since July last. Numerous petitions were presented praying that no fur- ther concessions may be granted to the Roman Catholics. The Bishop of Winchester presented a similar petition from Horsham, in Sussex. The right Rev. Prelate ob- served, that the petition was respectably signed, but he could not concur in its prayer. With respect to the mea- sures which would soon be before their Lordships, he would observe that they should never have his support if lie thought they tended to tile subversion or injury of the Constitution or the Protestant Establishments l but he would support them because he believed that they would tend to the union of all classes, in support of the constitu- tion. In the measures as they stood, as far as he could be informed of them, he fully approved; for he saw in them nothing inconsistent with the maintenance of Protestant principles, or in any degree calculated to subvert the Protestant Church. Having said thus much, he could not concur in the prayer of tho petition, but he would lav it on their Lordships* table. Petitions in favour of emancipation were presented from Portsmouth by the Earl of Carnarvon ; from Castle Blakeney, Killoran, and other places in Ireland ( 18 pe- titions), by the Marquis of Clanricardo ; from Newcastle- under- Lyme, Stoke- upon- Trent, and other places in Staffordshire, and from several places in Leitrim, Kil- dare, Meath, and other counties in Ireland ( we believe 25 petitions), bv the Marquis of Anglesey. The Duke of Sussex presented a petition from the minister, heritors, and other inhabitants of Kelton, in the Stewarty of Kirkcudbright, praying that their Lord- ships might sanction the measures now before Parliament for the removal of the civil disabilities affecting their Roman Catholic fellow subjects. Several bills were passed through their respective stages ; after which their Lordships adjourned. THURSDAY, March 2( i The Earl of Eldon, in presenting the London and Westminster petition against any further concessions to the Roman Catholics, having read the petition through, observed, that he was in- structed to say that it had 113,0110 signatures attached to it, among which were to be found those of a great number of magistrates, ani of others of great weight. This petition originated at a meeting held at the Crown and Anchor, the usual place for meetings of that kind. The Duke of Sussex said, that although he did not deny that there were many respectable names attached to the petition, yet the most unfair and disgraceful means had been used to procure signatures. Earl Grey said that although he did not wish to throw any discredit upon the petition, he felt convinced that the sense of the country was in favour of Emancipation. A great number of other petitions were presented on ') the subject of the Catholic claims. The Marquis of Londonderry, in moving for the ap- pointment of a Committee to take into consideration all the circumstances connccted with the Coal trade, had no desire to diminish the duty, but he hoped that the result of an enquiry would be a reduction in the price of that article to the consumer. The Duke of Wellington did not object to the mo- tion; but Government would not interpose to deprive tile city of a tax which it deemed necessary for the com- pletion of the object which they had in hand. The motion was then agreed to. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at seven o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS. WEDNESDAY, March 25 Numerous petitions were presented, for and against the Catholic claims. Mr. E. Davenport brought in a Bill to extend the powers of summary conviction of juvenile offenders by Magistrates in certain eases. It was read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time on Friday the 3d of April. Sir J. Mackintosh presented a petition from the students of theology in the University of Oxford, who prayed that further concessions may be granted to Roman Catholics. Sir J. Scarlett presented a petition in favour of Catholic emancipation, signed by 324 gentlemen of the English Bar. They desired the House to adopt measures for the removal of the disabilities affecting the Roman Catholics ; and they stated the lively interest which they take in the consideration of the measures then before the House. He felt it to be a high honour to be the medium of pre- senting such a petition to the House. Mr. Slaney presented petitions from two parishes in the counties of Gloucester and Somerset, in favour of the Bill for altering the Poor Laws. Mr. Peel— I rise to move for leave to bring in a Bill, the object of which will be the consolidation of the laws relative to the qualification and jurisdiction of Justices of the ' Peace in counties. It will be an object of this Bill to facilitate the execution of duties of Magistrates. There are about twenty- three Acts of Parliament now in force relative to the qualification and jurisdiction of Justices of the Peace. I think that it would be productive of great advantage if we were to act as to this subject on the same principle on which we acted as to the Criminal Law, and unite into one Act of Parliament the various provisions to be found in the different enactments now in force. In the course of the proposed consolidation it may be ad- visable to supply some defects that may be found to exist, and make some regulations to which the law does not now apply. It is a question whether it would not be ad- visable to raise the qualification of a Justice of the Peace. Tile question is, whether it would not be advisable to raise the qualification from 100/. to 300/. a year I would sot propose to disqualify those who may not be qualified to that amount, and who are now in the commission of the peace. I do not piopose to alter the qualification of Magistrates possessing local jurisdiction. This bill will abolish the distinction between Justices of the Quorum mid other Justices The Bill will make regulations for holding Petty Sessions throughout the country; and it al:- o contains a general form of conviction in all cases for which the law has not already provided. The Bill will wqufre Magistrates to make a return to the Clerks of the Peace of the amount of all fines and penalties they may have imposed for a certain antecedent period. The Bill will also determine in those cases which are not provided for by law at present, when an appeal shall be allowed ajainst a summary conviction. It also contains a provi- lion of great importance for regulating the fees of Clerks to Justices of the Peace. ( Cheers.) Mr. Hume objected to some parts of the bill, and pro- posed some amendments to it. The Hon. gentleman luggested the propriety of introducing a clause into the Bill to prevent Clergymen from becoming Justices pf the Peace, except in eases where other individuals capable of performing the duties of the office could not be found. After some discussion, in which several other Members joined, the Bill was introduced, read a first, and ordered to be read a second time this day fortnight. Sir A. Grant brought up the Report of the Committee « the Qualification of Freeholders ( Ireland) Bill, which « as agreed to. The Innkeepers' Bill was read a third time and passed. - Adjourned. THURSDAY, March 2 « .- Mr. C. N. Palmer pre- sented a petition from the County of Surrey, against the . iitended alteration of the Constitution in favour of the ! Roman Catholics. A number of other petitions were presented, for and tgitinst the Catholic claims. Sir James . Mackintosh presented a petition in favour of the Claims, from Edinburgh : tt was signed by 7 Peers, 5 Knights of the Bath and Barone. s, 155 gentlemen of landed property, 135 practising barristers, 50 divines, Hi professors of the University of Edinburgh, 21 bankers, IB officers of the army and navy, 1311 physicians, and 250 merchants and traders, and other respectable names, in ' Till amounting to upward? of 7000 persons. Amongst 4iese were the names of Sir Walter Scott, Sir Humphrey < Avy, sad that distinguished divine. Dr. Chalmers. J The Order of the Day being read for going into a Committee on the Irish Disfranchisement Bill, Mr. Moore rose to submit a motion for preserving mtire the rights of the Forty Shilling Protestant Free- holders. He thought that, as a retrospective measure, tliey should not be classed in the list with the Roman Catholic Freeholders, who Were under the controul of their clergy. After some discussion the motion was negatived. Mr. Estcourt entered his protest against the Bill, but he was more decidedly against the great measure of srhich this formed a part. i The House then went into the Committee In the taitse for fixing the price of the qualification, Mr. Moore loposed to substitute the word " twenty" for u ten" ounds. He had information upon this point, which led | « i to believe that the higher sum would be the more jtsirable, for attaining the object which the Legislature vd in view. - Mr. Peel decidedly objected to the amendment. After some discussion, the question for amending the t clause, by inserting the word " Twenty," in lieu of Ten," was put, upon which the Committee divided : For the amendment 10; for the clause as it orignally lod, 112; Majority SIS. The clause, empowering Assistant Barristers to inves- tigate all classes to the right of voting, was then agreed to. Several other clauses were agreed to, with verbal amendments. The other clauses of the Bill having been agreed to, with amendments, the Chairman reported progress ; the report was brought up, and ordered to be received to- morrow— Adjourned. London, FRIDAY, MARCH 27. The Duke of Cambridge lias, it is understood, purchased Cholmondeley House, Piccadilly, of the Mar- quis of Cholmondeley, and entered into negociation for the space of ground at one of tile corners of Belgrave- square, Pimlico. Lord Kenyon, attended by the Duke of Cum- berland, intends presenting an Address to his Majesty at Windsor Castle. In the House of Commons last night, the Bill for disfranchising the forty shilling freeholders went through the Committee. It is generally believed that the Catholic Relief Bill will pass the House of Lords before the Easter recess. It will be brought up from the Commons on Tuesday next, and read a first time ; and the second reading will probably be fixed for Friday. The follow- ing week will be occupied by the Committee and Report, and the third reading may be fixed for Monday the 13th of April; and on the following Thursday the House will adjourn. The Majority is calculated at forty- five, including eight Bishops— Morning Chronicle. The adjournment for the approaching Easter is to be much shorter than usual. The customary ad- journment used to be sometimes a fortnight, never less than ten days ; but now it is to be only from the Thurs- day till the Wednesday following, losing only three days of business— Friday, Monday, and Tuesday. The ob- ject is, to be able to get through the Government affairs of Estimates, Supplies, & c. j which have been much de- layed by the Catholic Bills, so that the Parliament may be prorogued early in June. Accounts from Hamburgh state, that on the 20th there was a great deal of ice in the Elbe. Brussels and Hamburgh papers of a late date have arrived. The Count de Celles, Ambassador from the Netherlands, at Rome, had presented his credentials to the Conclave. That was the first time that the Mi- nister of a Protestant Prince had been admitted to the Sacred College. The re- establishment of the Jury, and a new and more liberal law for regulating the Press, are now occupying the attention of the Belgian Chambers. Letters from Egina, state that Captain Falanga, com- manding the Perseverance steam- boat, had captured four Turkish ships of war m the Gulf of Volo, and delivered 500 unfortunate Greeks, who, to avoid the approach of the enemy from Zeitouni, had taken refuge in caverns, and were in danger of perishing with hunger. It having been stated in the Morning Journal that the Duke of Wellington, after the adoption of the present Bill relative to the Roman Catholics, has it in contemplation to bring in a measure for the " sweeping, unconditional, and non- compensatory Emancipation of the Slaves of all the British Settlements," we venture to contradict this statement in the most positive manner. The Duke of Wellington has no such intention; nor did a policy, so big with peril to life, and ruin to property, even enter into his thoughts. It is of the utmost import- ance that this contradiction should be given without the least delay— and we trust our contemporaries will assist us in giving it the most extensive circulation— in order that the statement, if it should reach our Settlements, should be put down at once by the declaration frbm the most authentic sources, that there is not the slightest foundation for it— Courier. A recent event will not, we trust, and ought not to impede or impair the measures resolved upon for the establishment of the King's College. The Earl of Winchilsea, in his manly apology, has expressed his regret at having unadvisedly published an opinion com- plained of by the Duke of Wellington with respect to his motives in promoting the establishment of the College, Political considerations, therefore, ought not to be per- mitted to interfere to the prejudice of a plan which is cal- culated to be of such eminent service to the cause of teaming, morality, and the established religion Courier. The crowd, collected at the entrance to the Houses of Parliament, followed the Duke of Wellington in his carriage, on Tuesday night, from the House of Lords, along Parliament- street, hooting, yelling, and making discordant noises, to the bottom of Downing- street, where the further progress of the mob was im peded by a large posse of the police, who prevented their following the Duke to his private residence. The Journal of St. Petersburg!) of the 7tli of March contains a long article, announcing that every thing is perfectly tranquil in their late Asiatic acquisi- tions, and that their government and soldiery are very popular. Letters are in town from Gibraltar of the 5th of February, which state that many merchants had left, to establish themselves in Cadiz, in consequence of the late declaration making it a free port. Letters from Oporto state, that intelligence has reached that place from the Brazils, of a very consi- derable force being prepared at Rio, or nearly ready for sailing, for the express purpose of a descent on the coast of Portugal. According to commercial intelligence from Constantinople, the Austrian Internuncio, residing in that capital, had given notice that it had been agreed with the Ottoman Porte, that all vessels laden with corn, under the Austrian flag, might sail from the Black Sea to the Mediterranean with two- thirds of their cargoes, and that the other third shall be paid for ill ready money, at fixed prices, for the supply of Constantinople. It is stated in the Journal de St. Petersburgh, that, in the confident expectation of more arrivals of bars of gold and silver, and the temporary want of coin to give in exchange for bullion, the Government will be obliged to give in return, till more money shall be coined, receipts and promises of payment by degrees. Frankfort letters of the 18th instant state that great armaments are preparing by Austria on the frontiers of Hungary and Servia; and it is reported at Vienna that the Austrian Cabinet will not confine their operations to the defensive, should the Russian armies approach the frontier provinces. Among the reports circulated at Cadiz, on the authority of letters from Mexico, one was, that General Santa Anna had declared in favor of Bravo be- ing named President of the Republic. Accounts from Vienna of the 12th say that a report had been spread that the Ambassadors of France and England had received from their respective Courts orders to leave Naples and repair to Constantinople. ANCONA, March 6.— According to letters from Vloco, Captain Tsavella, who commands the van guard of the Greek corps under Prince Ypsilanti, has defeated a strong division of the Turks at Karpennissi, after a smart action. Tsavella afterwards received from Ypsilanti a reinforcement of fresh troops, and took up a position with ( 1000 men at Fanasi, on Mount Riso, in Thessaly, eight leagues from Tricala. Gen. Denzil, with 6000 men, has occupied Agrafa and Tartana, near Vloco. lie had an interview with Capts. Isco and Gogo, who arc to act in concert with him. Gen. Church has taken the town of Vonizza, and hopes that the citadel will soon surrender. In the town of Vonizza 2000 Greeks were found, who had been made slaves by the Turks. The Greek garrison makes excursions by land towards Arta. Gen. Maison has forbidden the Greek army to advance anv farther than Attica. COPENHAGEN, March 14 — We have two ships of the line, a frigate, and a corvette, on the stocks, which will be completed next year ; we shall then have six ships of the line: there are besides two others on the stocks. From the VISTULA, March 6— Travellers who Come from the interior of Russia ? gree in their accounts of the great traffic on all the roads leading to the south- ern provinces of the empire. They met, in particular, a great many battalions of young soldiers belonging to the last levy of recruits, and which they were informed were on their march to the two principalities, and Bulgaria, to repair the losses suffered in the last campaign. Nume- rous troops of horses for the cavalry ( already broke in) have been sent in the same direction, especially from Volhynia and Podolia. HAMBURGH, March 17.— Her Majesty the Empress of Russia u expected to arrive shortly at Berlin, in order to be present at the marriage of his Royal High- ness Prince William and the Princess of Saxe Weimar. It is reported that a squadron of three ships of the line and two frigates will shortly sail from Cronstadt, to rein- force the Russian squadron in the Mediterranean. A vessel employed in the India trade, called Jane Eliza, together with a most valuable cargo, lias been seized in the river, for a violation of the charter of the East India Company. It seems that the law by which the monopoly of that great trading body is esta- blished, prescribes that no vessel shall make the voyage direct home from China to England, without incurring tile forfeiture both of ship and cargo. The cargo, inde- pendently of the vessel, is valued at 50,000/.; it consists chiefly of silk, nankeens, tortoiseshell, and other articles usually imported from China. It is supposed that both ship and cargo will ultimately be released, but not with- out considerable expense to all concerned. The merchants are highly indignant at the whole proceeding, and will, it is said, avail themselves of it as a striking instance to prove the injurious nature of the Company's monopoly. MODERN MENDICITY— On Saturday last, an old man named Williams was taken before our Ma- gistrates, charged with begging, and with being found with other vagrants on the preceding night— On his ex- amination, it appeared that he was in possession of 451. in gold and notes, and the constables also took from him a pocket pistol charged with ball, which he doubtless kept to guard the hard earnings of his honest industry. After a severe admonition from the Magistrates, his pro- perty was restored to him ; and in consideration of his having been imprisoned the whole of the night, he was suffered to depart. — Cheltenham Chronicle. ILLUMINATED CLOCKS. — A clock of this de- scription was exhibited at the Church of St. Nicholas, Bristol, last week; and it is sjiid to be superior in bril- liancy and distinctness to any in the metropolis. The Gazette of Tuesday night contains his Majesty's order in Council for suspending the training and exercising the Militia in the present year. The Duke of Buckingham is expected in England early in June. Lord and Lady Arundel will accompany his Grace from Rome. Mr. Bankes, the unsuccessful candidate for Cambridge at the last general election, and son of the Member for Dorset, was on Monday elected one of the representatives of the borough of Marlborough, in the room of Lord Brudenell, who has accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. Persons are stationed at all places from which stage- coaches start, distributing Anti- Popery tracts for travellers, to enlighten themselves and their country friends. PREFERRED— The Rev. William Hall, to the Rectory of Tuddenham, Suffolk, vacant by the dentil of the Rev. W. Stocking ; patron, the Marquis of Bristol, WOOL TRADE. — The demand for wools re- mains exceedingly flat. A better state of things is, how- ever, looked for, as it is understood the stock of English wools is much reduced, & the arrivals of foreign limited. We regret to find that the disease whfsh has been already so disastrous among the sheep has not yet ceased its ravages in this neighbourhood : T/ ithin these few weeks one farmer has lost nearly nine hundred, and others have suffered to a considerable extent Sherborne Journal. On Monday a Court of Directors was held at the Fast India House, when Lieutenant- Colonel Sir William Young, Bart, took the oath and his seat as a Director, in the room of Sir George Abercrombie Robin- son, Bart, who had disqualified. Lord Lowther is said to have resigned his office as Chairman of Woods and Forests. It has been asserted that the circulation of bank- notes has been much increased within the last few weeks. From 80 to 100,000 sovereigns arrived on Monday from Paris. We are informed that the clergy of the arch- deaconry of Wells are, from their several deaneries, ad- dressing the King, petitioning his Majesty not to sanction measures which admit Roman Catholics into the Parlia- ment, the privy conncil, or principal executive offices of the Government Bath Chronicle. Several ladies of Hitchin have signed an address to the King, " the first Gentleman as well as the first Monarch in Europe," imploring him not to suffer any Bill for admitting Papists into either House of Par- liament to pass into a law, and to dismiss those evil counsellors who advise a measure fraught with such danger to the rights and liberties of his Protestant people. The following words were addressed by Lord Eldon to George the Third :—> l Sire, To pi event the dangers to arise from letting the Roman Catholics in, the best of all securities is to keep them out." The fact of the dismissal of Sir C. Wetherell from his office of Attorney- General is no longer doubtful. On Tuesday morning the words " Attorney- General," which followed " Sir Charles Wetherell" on the door of Sir Charles's chambers, were effaced bv his orders. It appears, from returns made by order of the House of Commons, that the total number of steam- boats or vessels belongirg to all the ports of Great Britain is 310, and the number of tons 26,374. Vessels belonging to Government are not included in this account Of the number in the return 57 belong to the port of London. It also appears that If! steam- boats are now building. The preparations for the concert at Guild- hall for the Spanish and Italian Refugees are proceeding on a grand scale. Miss Smithson, who was so successful in Paris, has entered into an engagement with the managers of Covent- garden, and will make her first appearance at that theatre in Easter week. Gloucester Assizes will commence on Wed- nesday, the 1st of April. The calendar is very heavy, there being at present 121 prisoners in the county, and 13 in the city gaol. It is in contemplation to establish a Com- mercial Banking Company at Birmingham. DORCHESTER, March 26.— The petition of the Clergy of the Archdeaconry of Dorset, against the proposed innovations on the Constitution, has been pre- pared, and is now in a course of signature. It yesterday received the signatures of many Clergymen of this town and neighbourhood; and will speedily be forwarded to the other towns in the county. Kennedy, who was found guilty at our last assizes of I having shot at the Rev. H. Willoughby, with intent to murder him, is to be executed on Saturday next. Since i his conviction, his demeanour has very much altered; and he has now lost the whole of that hardened appear- ance which he assumed prior to his trial, and maintained j during the whole of the time he was in Court. He en- tertains no hope of being reprieved, but is deeply and properly impressed by the awful situation in which he is placed, and is perfectly resigned to his fate, expressing much contrition for his daring and reckless conduct at his various examinations and during his trial. The Chap- lain of the prison, the Rev. D. Clemetson, has been in- defatigable in his attendance on the wretched man, who has profited much by the instructions of the reverend gentleman, and appears anxious for his visits. Mr. Ashford, the lately elected coroner for Somersetshire, has redeemed the pledge he gave at the time of his election, of residing in a more central situa- tion, and has fixed his residence at Shepton- Mallett. The calendar for the approaching assizes at Taunton is exceedingly heavy, both as to numbers and crimes. There are no less than 171 prisoners for trial. The great fight between Brown and Dobell, took place at Dukesdale, within a few miles of Bridge- north, on Tuesday. Brown was seconded by Spring, and Dobell bv Byrne. The fight was decided in 18 rounds, which lasted 23 minutes. Brown proved himself decidedly superior to his adversary, and won with great ease. Dobell was much beaten; and it is said that lie lost 700/. of his own money on the contest. A dead Rabbit— A Rabbit in Law. — At Not- tingham assizes on Monday, John Moore was indicted for stealing two rabbits. It appeared that the rabbits stolen were dead rabbits. Mr. Williams, on behalf of the prisoner, contended that the indictment was not supported, and relied on the authority of a somewhat celebrated decision of Mr. Jus- tice Littledale,. by which that learned Judge had ruled that an indictment for stealing a duck was not supported by proving that the prisoner had stolen a dead duck. That is, that a dead duck was not a duck. Mr. Sergeant Adams overruled the objections, after which the prisoner was found Guilty. On Saturday evening, as a person, named Barnett, was proceeding from Kensington to Brompton, through a narrow lane leading to the latter place, he stumbled over the body of a man who was extended across the road. Mr. Barnett was proceeding on his way when the fellow whistled, and two other ruffians instantly came up. when the whole party knocked Mr. Barnett down, rifled his pockets of 30s., and beat him in a most brutal manner. A few nights ago, a fellow attempted to enter the shop of Mr. Smith, silk mercer, corner of Half- Moon- street, Piccadilly. He had broken the fan- light and introduced his hand to withdraw the bolt, when the noise alarmed a man in the shop ; who getting out of bed, seized a sword, and chopped off three of his fingers. On Monday James Cliffe underwent the awful sentence of the law at Lancaster, for the murder of his wife at Manchester, on the 2d of January last. CHARGE OF MURDER. — John Butler, a pri- vate in the second battalion of Foot Guards, was charged at Marylebone Office yesterday on suspicion of having robbed and murdered Mr. H. Neale, of Great Castle- street, Regent- street. Itappeared thaton Tuesday night Mr. Neale was taken home in a state of intoxication by the prisoner, when Mr. Neale insisted on his partaking of wine, and they drank two bottles. The soldier, then appearing drunk, attempted to carry Mr. Neale up stairs to bed, but both fell down. The servant then brought some bed clothes down, and after placing her master's head upon a pillow, and making him as comfortable as Circumstances would admit, left the room, with a deter- mination to sit up. She heard the snoring of a person as late as half- past five, and she believed it was her master. She then fell asleep, and when she awoke, a little after six, she found her master was dead; his body was co- vered with a sheet, which was not upon him when she left him, and he had been robbed of his coat, waistcoat, hat, and stock; the soldier was gone, and the street door was wide open. Her master's nose was bent on one side as if it had been sat upon, and there were marks upon it as if caused by the pressure of fingers. A minute de- scription of the soldier having been given, he was appre- hended. and a memorandum- book, found upon the pri- soner, was identified as the deceased's property. The apparel in which the prisoner was attired when taken into custody was produced and identified as the property of Mr. Neale. — The prisoner, in his defence, declared that he had not in any manner injured the deceased. He v, as remanded until the Coroner's inquest has been held. FORGERY. — Wm. Carr, a young man of res- pectable appearance, was fully committed to Newgate on Tuesday from the Mansion House, charged with forging a cheque on the house of Curtis, Robarts, and Co. for 97/. purporting to be drawn by Messrs. Barclay, merchants. Trinity- square. Two 20L notes, given in change for the cheque, were traced to the prisoner's possession. He had formerly been a clerk in Messrs. Barclay's house, and had lived there for eight years. SUSSEX ASSIZES. — On Wednesday Augustus Fitzhardinge Berkeley, Esq. was indicted for threatening language to Henry John Hounson, Esq. with intent to incite him to fight a duel. Both parties lived at Fun. tingdon ; and there had been some differences between them, Mr. Hounson having told the defendant he should serve him with a notice not trespass on his land. An explanation was demanded by Lord George Lenox on beliulfof the defendant for thj insult which he allsged had been put on his friend; and Mr. Hounson wrote a letter to Capt. Berkeley, declaring that he meant nothing offensive. This letter he sent by hif attorney, accompa- nied with a formal notice to the Captain not to tres- pass on his land. The Captain afterwards threatened to horsewhip him. The case was clearly proved, and the Jury returned a verdict of guilty. DR. JOHNSON AND THE POPERY BILL For the Salisbury and Winchester Journal. IF Dr. Johnson, whose opinions are quoted in the last week's Journal, had lived to this time, he would have formed a different view of the miseries of Ireland and of the Irish Papists, from those reported by Boswell in his Life of Johnson, who died in 17! U. He did not live to see the concessions of Parliament to the Irish Papists by the grant of the elective franchise, nor had he seen their ungrateful return for this and other concessions by the rebellion of 1798, or their scandalous abuse of the elective franchise in the late elections in Ireland. He who wrote an elaborate tract to prove that " Taxation" by law was " no Tyranny," would not now have called the disabilities which Papists make for themselves ( by their defective allegiance to the King, by their subjection to a Foreign Power, and their own non- conformity to the Laws") " a detestable persecution," if Johnson ever used such language, which we are inclined to think he never did in the terms reported by Mr. Bos- well ( Life, vol. ii. p. 123) not from his own knowledge, but communicated to him with other incredible anec- dotes, by another person. Dr. Johnson's opinion of the condition of Ireland and the Irish Papists are too remote from the present state of that country to be of any value, being prior to the repeal of the penal laws, and to the union of Ireland with England. In 1773, Dr. Johnson said,—" The Irish are in a most unnatural state, the mi- nority prevailing over the majority." This opinion also he must have abandoned, if he had lived to see the establishment of the Union, by which Ireland became a part of the empire, and by which the Irish Papists, com- pared with the Protestants of the whole empire, became the minority ( instead of the majority), and therefore not entitled to privileges destructive of the interests of the majority. To the Editor of the Salisbury and Winchester Journal. OXFORD, March 27, 11129. SIR,— I have observed this week with some surprize a paragraph in your excellent Journal, copied inadvertently perhaps from a London print, containing certain opinions ascribed to Dr. Johnson on the authority of his bio- grapher ( Boswell.) I have examined the four volumes of his Life very care- fully, and looked at all the references in the index ; and the result has been a conviction, which I had before an- ticipated, that the name of this great man has been used for the worst of party purposes— to mislead the ignorant and unwary. I trust to your well- known impartiality to correct this mis- statement. I am, Sir, your very obedient faithful servant, J. INGRAM. The Dean and Chapter of Exeter are about to forward an address to his Majesty praying that no further concession be made to the Roman Catholics. It is said that the Clergy of the Diocese of Exeter will forthwith proceed to London in a body, for the purpose of representing to the Duke of Wellington the danger to the Protestant Church which cannot fail to result from the present measure of admitting Catho- lics to political power. The Devon County Address to the Throne, praying his Majesty not to give his Royal Assent to the proposed measure for removing the Roman Cathloic dis- abilities, has already received between thirty and forty thousand signatures. The petitions from Edinburgh in favour of the measures of Government for a settlement of the Catholic question were forwarded on Sunday to the Earl of Haddington, Lord Melville, and Sir James Macin- tosh. They were open for signatures for only six days and within that period they were signed by above 7,( 100 of the inhabitants.

There are collections of nearly all the pieces, larger and smaller, of a number of the distinguished literary, philosophical, and ecclesias- tical polemics of tl at former age, whose works were never printed In collective editions. The first volume is con- fined, with small exception, to English literature.

FRIDAY, March 27— Lord Holland, in presenting 60 petitions in favour of the Catholic claims, from dif- ferent parts of Great Britain and Ireland, felt it his duty to make an observation on their merits, which was, that the greater number of the petitions were Protestant dis- senters, than whom there was no class of his Majesty's subjects more jealous of any encroachments from Popery. The Earl of Haddington, in presenting a petition from Edinburgh, in favour of the Catholic Claims, observed, that this petition came from the most Protestant kingdom in Europe, and originated at a meeting convened by ad- vertisement, and attended by 20110 of the most respectable persons in that city of all political principles; for all parties had joined in recommending to their Lordships the adoption of the proposed great measure. The Bishop of Litchfield and Coventry presented a petition from the Clergy and Archdeaconry of his diocese against further concessions. Several other petitions, for and against the Catholic claims, were presented— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. FRIDAY, March 27 — Numerous petitions were pre- sented on the subject of Catholic emancipation. Mr. Peel having moved the order of the day for the further consideration of the Roman Catholic Relief Bill, Sir G. Rose said he considered the present question as a religious, and not a political one, and in this light was it looked upon by the country at large. The constitution would Certainly be endangered by the admission into power, of 60 powerful and so united a body as the Ro- man Catholics. He was the more confirmed in this opi- nion when he recollected the connection which they still maintained with foreign countries; and he could never consent to give any power to a body of men, who ac- knowledged the supremacy of a foreign Potentate, although it was merely a spiritual supremacy, which he thought the most dangerous, because it was exercised over the minds of the people who acknowledge it. Mr. Bradshaw expressed himself favourable to the Relief Bill, which he considered a matter of justice, as well as to the Disfranchisement Bill which he considered a matter of expediency. Mr. O'Neil thought the argument of expediency a very dangerous one, and should not be admitted unless a clear case was made out. He contended that after the passing of the present law a still more dangerous Catho- lic question would remain unsettled. ( Hear, hear.) Mr. Ewart thought the laws against Roman Catholics were subversive of the spirit of Christianity ; anil there- fore he was disposed to support the measures of relief. The Marquis of Blandford observed that he did not find any guards for the protection of the Protestant esta- blishments, which these laws were framed to support. What was there to secure them against the domination of the Romish Church ? ( Hear, hear.) It had been said, " if you do not like these measures what have you to propose." He would say in answer, let these measures be sent to every town in the kingdom, and read from the hustings, and then you would soon be told that they were odious to the nation ( Cheers.) The measures are the consequence of the proceedings of daring agitators and a controling priesthood ( Cheers.) The further consideration ,' of the Report was then moved, when a discussion took place, and several pro- posed amendments were rejected. On the motion that the Report be engrossed, the House divided, when there appeared— For the motion, 233— Against it, 106— Majority, 127. The Bill was ordered to be engrossed, and read a 3d time on Monday next. On the motion of Mr. Hume, a return was ordered of the number of persons now in gaol in London and Mid- dlesex, on account of prison fees, and by what authority they are kept in prison.— Adjourned. London. SATURDAY. MARCH SO. A Cabinet Council assembled yesterday, at the Foreign Office, which was attended by the' Lord Chancellor, the Duke of Wellington, Earls Bathurst and Aberdeen, Lord Ellenborough, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Viscount Melville, Mr. Peel, Sir George Murray, Mr. Vesey Fitagerald, and Mr. Herries. Letters have been received from Sydney, New South Wales, to the 7th, with papers to the 4th October. They state the arrival of his Majesty's ship from a voyage of discovery. The accounts from New South Wales are unfavourable Wheat had again ad- vanced ; it is stated at 20*. per bushel, but favourable rains had commenced. Letters and papers have been received from Van Diemen's Land to the 11th of October, which de- scribe that interesting colony in a very flourishing condi- tion, generally speaking, though a partial scarcity of grain had raised the price of wheat to 11s. per bushel. A letter from Alexandria, dated the 14th ult. states that the Pacha of Egypt had made himself this year the exclusive disposer of the cotton crop, with the view of speculating in the article in the European mar- kets, or selling it to the exporting merchants residing at Alexandria. Mr. Halcomb, Chairman to the late Meeting of the inhabitants of London and Westminster, held at the Crown and Anchor, to petition Parliament against the Catholic Relief Bill, has announced his intention and that of his friends to call a public meeting in Hyde Park on the 7th of April, to petition the Lords not to sanction a measure so fraught with danger to the Protes- tant Church. The Rev. Archibald Alison, Vicar of High Ercall, Salop, made an abatement on the 5th inst. of 20/. per cent, on his tithes on the last year. Stephen Moore, Esq. at his late audit, re- turned to his respective tenantry, 10 per cent, upon the year's rental of his estates in the Lordship of Sulby and Guilsborough, Northamptonshire.

The Rev. George Augustus Biedermann, M. A. Chaplain to the Earl of Liverpool, 1ms been instituted by the Lord Bishop of this Diocese, to the Rectory of Dauntsey, Wilts, on the presentation of Sir Coutts Trotter, Bart, and the Rev. Maurice George Fenwick, void by the death of the Rev. George Bisset. We are enabled, on undoubted authority, to contradict a rumour that it is the intention of the Ministers to discontinue the Composition of Assessed Taxes; and we can state, that the Act which will expire on the 5th April, 1830, will be continued for one year longer, without any new regulations. Newtown Park, the hospitable mansion of W. Moffatt, Esq. was the scene of great gaiety or- Mon- day evening last, in consequence of a ball and supper, given in honor of his daughter's birth- day, at which were present most of the leading families of Lymington and the neighbourhood. Dancing was kept up with great spirit till a late hour; and it is but justice to Mr. Klitz and his sons, who formed the quadrille band, to say, that the quadrilles and waltzes were performed in a manner that might have done credit to even Weippert himself. Wilkins v. Tanswell.— In the report of this case, which appeared in our Journal of the 16th of March, it was incorrectly stated that a verdict was taken for the plaintiff for 1001. subject to a reference; the fact was, that a verdict was not taken, but the case was left to Mr. Moody, the counsel, who gave his award at Dorches- ter, which was a verdict for the defendant. WAREHAM, March 27.— We understand the arrangements towards the contemplated Musical Festival on the opening of the new organ in St. Mary's Church, are in such a state of forwardness as to warrant the ex- pectation of its taking place about the 22d of April. The delay is attributed partly to the determination of the Committee to obtain such assistance, amateur and profes- sional, as shall ensure its being of the very first descrip- tion ; and, to the difficulty of making an arrangement of so extensive a nature, on so short a notice, it having been originally objected to, and that objection only removed on the organ being completed about three weeks since. On the 19th inst. a match of pigeon shooting took place at the Boot Inn, Tisbury, for a subscription purse. Some excellent shots appeared in the field. The prize was won by Mr. Hinton, of Chittern. At the conclusion of the sport, a most excellent dinner was served up to the party by Mr. Macey; the wines were excellent, and the greatest harmony and conviviality pre- vailed throughout the evening. DR. DARWIN.— We are glad this Gentleman has been further prevailed on to extend his stay with us for a few days longer; his cures of deafness arc truly surprising. It appears he has made this branch of prac- tice his peculiar study, and we congratulate the public on his success, as no diseases are more afflicting than those of the important organ of hearing. We are re- quested to state, that his departure being fixed for Wed- nesday the 8th of April, attendance will be given till then only, at Mrs. Miller's, Castle Street, previous to which, letters post- paid, or personal applications from any of his patients residing at a distance, requiring further assistance, will be atended to.

Mrs. Poore, in early life, was no less celebrated for her talents than for her extreme beauty. Notwithstanding her ad- vanced age, she retained her faculties to the last, and until a very short period, still possessed all the Conversa- tional powers and the fund of anecdote which rendered her society delightful to all who had the saistfaction of knowing her. She died in her ninetieth year. On Thursday the 19th instant died at bis father's house, in London, of a rapid decline, in the 17th year of his age, Richard, eldest son of Richard Gat- combe, Esq. late of Seaton, in Devonshire. To minister consolation to parental bosoms, mourning for the de- privation of such a son, is, indeed, a most difficult task; but it is, surely, delightful to reflect that, if amiability of disposition, filial duty and brotherly affection, mingled with a mind of the purest and most religious cast, can purchase, through Christ, a mansion in the seats of bliss, the object of their long solicitude and deep regret has left for ever this vale of tears, to partake of those spiritual and eternal joys reserved for the reception of the pure in heart. On the 21st inst. died at Sherborne, Mr. Daniel Penny, aged 93. He had six wives; the last of whom died about 18 months since. Died, Edward Barnard, aged 91, and Ann Barton, aged 99; both of Chippenham. Died on Tuesday 24th inst. aged 50 years, much respected and regretted, Elizabeth, wife of Mr. Philip Glass, Bartholomew Coffee House, Smithfield. Died on the 19th instant, after a short illness borne with Christian fortitude, Mr. Thomas Johnson, builder, Shaftesbury, in his 51st year: his character was that of an honest and upright man. Died lately, Mrs. Anna Gould, of St. Giles's, Dorset. On the 19th inst. died at Burcombe, aged 75. John Abram, many years a faithful and honest servant to Mr. Lush. Committed to Fisherton Gaol:— Wm. Staples and George Bowles, charged with stealing a quantity of fat, the property of John Cusses, grocer, of Salisbury. SALISBURY INFIRMARY.

Robert Wright Clerk; James Rickman, William Anthony, Stephen Evamy, and George Goddard, four young men of Mottisfont, were charged by Mrs. Elizabeth Barter with assaulting her under the following circumstances. It appeared that the prosecutrix was in the habit of at- tending a place recently opened at Mottisfont for religi- ous worship by the Baptists, and that the congregation was frequently disturbed by the riotous conduct of several young men, and particularly so on Sunday last; that in consequence of the prosecutrix having pointed out the defendants to the minister as being some of the dis- turbers, they followed her home on Sunday afternoon, abused her very much, and committed the assault by throwing dirt and stones at her. The Magistrates se- verely censured the conduct of the defendants, and ob- served that they had been brought before them on a charge for disturbing the congregation, they should have certainly sent them to take their trial at the sessions for the offence. The defendants were ordered to pay a fine of 21. and costs Thos. Bucksey, Chas. Sillence, Jas. Dunnings, and Richard Elkins, of Nursling, for having on Saturday night last, torn down and damaged the gates and palings of Mrs. Middleton, of Grove- place, were fined 1Z. each, beside the damages and costs— Henry Bell, for poaching, at Romsey Extra, was com- mitted to the house of correction for three months. .

It was an information ex- hibited by Thomas Hastings, Esq. the Collector of the Customs, against Richard Webb, of Yarmouth, charging him with having on the 2d of February last offered and promised to give to James Squire Rice, a commissioned boatman belonging to the Customs, a bribe of a sum of money, to induce him to neglect his duty, by conniving at the unlawful landing of a quantity of tea, whereby he, Webb, had incurred the penalty of 500/. After a hear- ing of upwards of three hours, the Magistrates found him guilty, but mitigated the penalty to 125/.

BOSWELL, " What do you think of the Idolatry of the Mass ?" JOHN SON, " Sir, there is no Idolatry, they believe God to be there, and adore him !" Boswell's Life of Johnson, Vol. 1., page 501, 2d Ed. TO THE LOUD BISHOP OF SALISBURY. MY LORD, It is with infinite regret that I address your Lordship on the subject of your letters to his Grace the Duke of Wellington. The respect I bear for your Lordship's dig- nified situation, and the sincere and most respectful re- gard I bear towards very many of the Clergy of the Es- tablished Church, would prevent my obtruding myself on any occasion of common import; but the charges con- tained in the letters above alluded to are not of a common kind, as, in addition to being idolaters and blasphemers, your Lordship has been pleased to denounce Roman Ca- tholics as traitors to their King and country. In what language, my Lord, can I ( consistent with the respect I wish to show towards the sacred character with which your Lordship is invested) mark my indignant refutation of this vile and unfounded calumny ? I can only lament that your Lordship has stopped at the second command- ment, in your examination of the decalogue; had you proceeded you would have found it to have been one of the divine commandments, " Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour;" which, whether or not you have violated on the present occasion, I shall leave to an impartial public to decide. I have neither space nor inclination, my Lord, to enter here on the subject of the Catholic belief of the real Pre- sence, preferring to affix the opinion of no mean authority in the brief quotation above; nor do I mean to follow your Lordship through the various statements ( I might call them mis- statements) connected with your political view of the question, little doubting but that your Lord- ship's eminent station will induce an answer, from some one more able than myself, to mark the futility of those arguments, that emanating from a meaner source would have been considered too contemptible for notice. My Lord, I do not wish to disguise that I feel highly excited and highly indignant at your Lordship's attempt to hold up your Catholic fellow- subjects ( for such we are in spite of your renunciation) as objects> ef public repro- bation, anil I proudly ask of your Lordship to mark at what period of our lives have we shown a divided alle- giance to our beloved Monarch, or failed in our duties towards the State. From the Catholic noble to the humble individual who now addresses you, it will be found, that we have never shrunk from performing in our respective spheres, such duties as the common weal demanded, even when we were denied the privileges with which our happier brethren of the Establishment were endowed We have disavowed in the strongest language that can bind man to man ( ratified by the most solemn oaths that can bind man to his God) that we owe any allegiance to other than our lawful Sovereign, and that the spiritual obedience we owe the Pope, as the head of the Catholic Church, neither directly nor indirectly impugns, or interferes with, the allegiance we owe our King. How, my Lord, can you abuse the words " Duty" and " Conscience" in ascribing to us doctrines and sen- timents, which from our souls we abhor, and how re- concile to yourself " attachment" to men who are traitors to their King and blasphemers of their God ? For I have the most unquestionable authority for stating, that in a conversation you held with a Catholic gentleman, you used the following expressions ( which were hailed at the time with the greatest pleasure, and often re- peated as proofs of your Lordship's candour and liberality), " God forbid, Sir, that a difference of religious senti- ments should occasion a breach of Christian charity one towards another— some of my nearest and dearest friends are Roman Catholics, and many of Mrs. Burgess's rela- tions profess the same faith." [ 6593 I confess, my Lord, I am at a loss to conceive how you can reconcile the two letters recently addressed to his Grace the Duke of Wellington, with the Christian charity you here speak of; how connect them with the divine or- dinance of " doing as you would be done unto," and how contemplate, as a Christian Pastor, or even as a man pos- sessed of the common feelings of humanity, the conse- quences that would be likely to accrue, could your infu- riated recommendations be carried into effect. My Lord, I am fully aware, the foregoing remarks contain many expressions, that under common circum- stances would be highly improper to address to your Lordship ; but your Lordship has voluntarily descended from the high station on which you have been placed, to attack by violence a body of men every way as loyal and perhaps more disinterested than yourself; still, my Lord, I am anxious to discriminate between the respect I wish to shew to your Lordship's dignified rank, and the re- sentment I cannot but ." eel at the unwarrantable and un- christian charges made against myself & fellow Catholics. Under this mixed feeling, I subscribe myself, My Loan, Your Lordship's obedient Servant, SALISBURY. CATHOLICUS. THEATRE, SALISBURY.
