THE SALISBURY AND WINCHESTER JOURNAL, AND GENERAL ADVERTISER OF WILTS, HANTS, DORSET, AND SOMERSET. _ NUMBER 5617__ V0LUMBCIX. MONDAY, APRIL 6, 1829. PRICE SEVEN- PENCE Monday's and Tuesday's Posts. ' _ —- IT*- - FROM THE PARIS PAPERS. PARIS. March 27- IT is affirmed that the treaty concluded I between France, Russia, and England is definitively signed, and that the most perfect harmony exists on the subject between the three Courts. It is said that tins treaty will speedily he made public, and that it has been sent to Constantinople to be notified to the Turkish Go vernment. MONDAY. MARCH 30. On Saturday morning, about half- past ten o'clock the Earl of Eldon arrived at the Kind's Palace, Windsor, from London. The noble Earl notified to the Page in waiting his request to have the honour of an in- terview with his Majesty. His Lordship was admitted to the presence of the King soon after twelve o'clock, the King being particularly engaged at the time of the ar- rival of the noble Earl. This is the first audience the noble and learned Earl has had of his Majesty since his resignation of the office of Lord Chancellor. The interview lasted nearly four hours, during which time tile noble Earl presented to the King sixty petitions against the Bill in Parliament for removing civil disabilities from the Roman Catholics. At 20 minutes past four o'clock the Karl of Eldon left the King's Palace, on his return to London. Lord Eldon, after leaving the Castle- yard, Windsor, proceeded on foot to his carriage, followed by a number of the inhabitants, who testified their respect by plaudits and waving of hats. The public must be prepared to expect that the Roman Catholic Relief Bill will pass the House of Lords and receive the Royal Assent before the adjourn- ment for the Easter holidays— Courier. Private letters from St. Petersburg;!! state that a great addition of cavalry is going to be added to the Russian armies, and that a vast quantity of new ac- coutrements, of the best qualities, have been sent to the head quarters. FLORENCE, March 17.— Prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg arrived here on Thursday last, under the name of Count Henneberg, coming from Naples. Our Sovereign paid, next day, a visit to his Royal Highness, who departs immediately for Bologna. ROME— According to the usual mode of reck- oning Popes, his Holiness, the late deceased Pope Leo XII. is the two hundredth and fifty- second since Peter the Apostle. CONSTANTINOPLE, . MARCH 2.— Not a word trans- pires respecting the mission of M. Jaubert; but it is said that the Porte has received some important information respecting the Internal state of Greece. It is said that the President has encountered many serious obstacles in his measures for the organization of the country, and that some Moreote Chiefs are so dissatisfied with the present Administration of Greece that they have made to the Porte secret offers of submis, ion. Several reports of the late Seraskier, Redschid Pacha, arc said to leave but little doubt on the subject, and they naturally present a great obstacle to the final arrangement of the affairs of Greece. Perfect tranquillity continues to prevail in this capital. The Carnival of Vienna is said to have been unusually gay this year. The fancy balls concluded by one given in the imperial anartments, at which more than 5000 persons were present. Papers from Bombay communicate the death of Sir C. H. Chambers, senior Puisne Judge of the Supreme Court of that Presidency, who died on the 13th of October, aged 39. Canton papers to the 16th of November, re- present the trade in British manufactures as in a com- plete slate of stagnation from excess of exportation. A letter from the Upper Rhine speaks of an intended alliance between Prince William of Baden and the eldest daughter of the Duke of Orleans. An article from Vienna announces that the Emperor has made Venice a free port. Prussia has at length determined to recognise the South American Republics. " The interests of trade and navigation," says an article from Berlin in the Allgemeine Zeitung of the 25th ult., " will not allow of delaying the measure till their recognition by the Mother Country, which will certainly take place at some future time. Consuls for Mexico and Colombia will be immediately appointed." A requisition has been addressed to the High Sheriff of Huntingdonshire, to convene a meeting to ad- dress the King against Catholic emancipation. A similar requisition is in course of signature in Cambridgeshire. A county meeting was held on Saturday last, in the Shire Hall, at Hereford, for the purpose of a " Petition" to the throne against the Catholic Relief Bill. On account of a disturbance which took place, the Sheriff dissolved the meeting. The Hon. Mr. Rodney then took the chair, but no decisive measure was adopted either for or against the Bill, & the freeholders dispersed. The county of Fermanagh met at Enniskillen, on Thursday last. Resolutions, and an address, were proposed by the Marquis of Ely, and unanimously agreed to. The address to his Majesty is to be presented by the Duke of Cumberland. The number of forty- shilling freeholders in Ireland is 451,000: other classes of freeholders, 36,000. CORK, March 24.— There was a meeting to- day at the Chamber of Commerce, for the purpose of furthering the levy of a national fund to requite the ser- vices of Mr O'Connell. It was but poorly attended, there being but 10 or 12 persons present. A Scotch Presbyterian minister near Edin- burgh, who last week ventured from the pulpit to express a favourable opinion of the measure for removing Ca- tholic disabilities, was most unceremoniously turned out of the church by his congregation, when in the midst of his discourse. The Spanish government are adopting the most severe measures, with the view of preventing the extensive smuggling carried on near Gibraltar, Cadiz, and the south of Spain. M. Chateaubriand has lately caused excava- tions to be made in the environs of Torre Vergata, under the directions of the Chevalier Visconti. The remains of an ancient edifice have been discovered, of extraordinary magnificence. The amount of subscriptions received for ( he restoration of York Minster is slated in the York Herald of Saturday to he 38,500/. A rate of 4d. in the pound in the county of York will realize the enormous sum of 100,000/. It appears from the Lancashire papers, that the cotton trade continues in a depressed state. The pur- chasers made by the country buyers are strictly limited to their actual wants; they are on a smaller scale than at the corresponding period last year, and the export trade holds out no temptation to speculators, particularly to South America. Amongst the hand- loom weavers in and near Manchester, particularly among the calico and fus- tian weavers, great distress prevails, though there are not so many people out of employment as in 1828. The Glasgow Chronicle mentions the death of a female infant in that town occasioned by having its face eaten by rats whilst lying in its mother's! arms. At the sitting of the Court at Hereford as- sizes, Mr. Justice Park severely leprehended the conduct of the attorneys of that county, who, it seemed, would not enter their causes for trial till the last moment, be- cause they wished them to stand low in the list, in order that they might be paid for four or five days attendance at the assizes instead of one. His Lordship intimated his intention of mentioning this subject at the next meeting of the 12 Judges, with a view to some regulations being adopted that would make it the interest of parties to enter their causes in good time. Martin Stack was convicted at York, on Friday, of murdering his illegitimate child, by adminis- tering aqua- fortis, and was ordered for execution this morning. Mr. Williams, the solicitor, under sentence of death at Lancaster, for forging a deed, was reprieved before the Judges left the town. At Launceston assizes an action was brought by the Masters, Wardens, & c. of the Apothecaries' Com- pany, to recover from a person named Sergeant certain 1 penalties, in consequence of his having practised as a Nurgeon and apothecary at Carrington, without being a competent person, or having passed the examination re- quired by the act 55 Geo. III. Tile jury returned a ver- dict against the defendant for ( wo penalties of 20/. each. William Kennedy was executed on Saturday morning, the 211th ult., on the new drop in front of Dor- chester Gaol, pursuant to his sentence at the last assiz: s, for wilfully shooting at with an intent to murder the Rev. Mr. Willoughby. His deportment since his trial had been penitent, and previous to his execution he made a full confession of his guilt, stating that his object in at- tempting to murder Mr. Willoughby was plunder. On ascending the platform, lie said, " I am guilty, and deserve to die ; my sentence is just, and I tlie in peace with all mankind; God bless you all!" Kennedy was a native of Tipperary in Ireland.

" Mr. Salmon has compressed into a narrow compass all that can be said upon his subject."— London Medical and Physical Journal. " There are thousands of sufferers from this complaint, showing itself in every variety of symptom, who are ut- terly ignorant of the cause of uneasiness. Mr. Salmon appears to us to have had considerable experience upon the subject, and his method of treatment is ingenious; and ha has conferred a lasting benefit on the Public and the Profession by the publication of his most important Cases."— Atlas. " The symptoms are described in a brief and perspicu- ous manner. The effects of Stricture are well illustrated by a series of instructive Cases. The Cases of Piles, in a satisfactory manner, point out the connexion of the two complaints. The work contains many sound remarks, and is creditable to the Authoi."— Lancet. " It contains many valuable observations, which ap- pear to be the fruit of considerable experience. No professional man can rise from the perusal of this Essay without finding that he has gained an accession of very valuable knowledge."— London Weekly Review " The work of Mr. Salmon is characterized by great surgical experience, much practical ingenuity, and accu- rate reasoning; and is therefore entitled to general com- mendation."— Athenaeum. " With the sanction of no inconsiderable medical authority we affirm; that it is a well arranged, well written, sound, practical book; as such it forms a valuable addition to the stock of surgical knowledge, while, from its operation with the Public, it is likely to prove an extended source of alleviation of human afflic- tion."— Examiner.

TUESDAY, March 3! At a few minutes after five Mr. Peel, accompanied by the Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, Mr. Dawson, Mr. Wynn, Mr. Brownlow, Mr. Slaney, Sir Henry Parnoll, Sir J. Mackintosh, Sir It. Wilson, Mr. H. Grattan, Mr. Heathcote, Lord G. Ben- tinck, Mr. Benett, of Wiltshire, Mr. Spring Rice, and nearly one hundred other' Members of the House of Commons, brought up the Roman Catholic Relief Bill. The announcement of the title of the Bill by the Lord Chancellor was received with cheers. Mr. Peel next brought up the Irish Freeholders' Elec- tion Qualification Bill. The Duke of Wellington moved that the Bill for the Relief of his Majesty's Roman Catholic Subjects be read a first time.— The bill was then read. The Duke of Wellington — l beg to give notice that I shall move the second reading of this Bill on Thursday. Lord Bexley objected to precipitancy with a Bill of such great importance. ( Hear, hear.) He believed that no Bill of such importance had ever before been read a first and second time in so short a period. ( Hear, hear.) In proof of which, his Lordship mentioned several instances in which bills for the relief of the Roman Catholics were brought before their Lordships, but in which cases 2 or 3 • weeks always intervened between the 1st and 2d rending. To restore confidence it was at least necessary that time should be given for discussion ; and the noble Duke would consult neither the dignity of the House nor the feelings of. the country, if he did not allow full time at every stage of the measure for givi g it due deliberation. _ The Duke of Welligton — Respect, my Lords, for the dignity of your Lordships, respect for the important sub- ject itself, respect for the declaration of his Majesty made to the two Houses of Parliament, respect to tile Address your Lordships presented to his Majesty in answer to his most gracious Speech, and respect, my Lords, to my own character, would induce me to avoid any thing that might appear precipitate on this great occasion. But, my Lords, when I consider that since his Majesty's Message nearly two months have elapsed— that the subject has been many times discussed, and that in these two months some strange assertions have been made, which have excited opposition to this Bill— I can but be anxious to state to your Lordships the grounds 011 which I propose this mea- sure, and on which 1 rest that decision to which I hope your Lordships will come in favour of passing this Bill. ( Hear.) I beg your Lordships will recollect that the second reading of the Bill is tin: first stage in which your Lordships enter into any deliberation of the measure. Considering, therefore, how desirable it is that the opi- nion of vour Lordships should be known, if your Lord- ships will allow me, I shall proceed to the second read- ing, as I originally proposed, on Thursday next ( Loud • cheering.) The Earl of Malmesbury proposed that Monday should be substituted for Thursday. Lord Holland said that if any practical inconvenience to the House or to their Lordships were likely to result from fixing so early a day, he should be ready to agree to the proposed alteration. But he did not conceive this to be tlie case. Lord Goderich hoped the noble Duke would not yield to the delay which was now asked. The Earl of Eldon could not consent to the motion for fixing tlie second reading for Thursday. All that was asked by his noble friend WHS, to delay the second read- ing to Monday. Why, if the object of any noble Lord was delay, that object might have been obtained by dis- cussing the subject 01) the presentation . of petitions, but the course had been studiously avoided. He trusted it • was not too much to ask fo » the short time which his no- ble friend had named. Lord Farnham thought that further time ought to be allowed for tile consideration of the Bill, before their Lordships were called upon to discuss tlie question of the second reading. Lord Ellenborough and the Earl of Carnarvon wished the discussion to take place 011 Thursday. Viscount Sidmouth observed that nothing he had heard could diminish the regret lie felt that the second reading of this bill should be fixed for Thursday— a bill than which, viewed with reference to its consequences, none more important had ever been introduced since the period of the Revolution. He deeply deplored this rapidity, for the honour and dignity of the House, for the cha- racter of the Government, by which the Speech of the Commissioners at the opening of the Session had been advised. That Speech, their Lordships would recollect, had recommended that the whole state of Ireland should ba taken into consideration. Would it be contended that their Lordships had followed the advice of the Speech from the Throne ? The Earl of Malmesbury said, tiiat his opinion of the impropriety of pressing the second reading of the Bill re- mained unchanged; he considered that their Lordships would best consult the dignity of their proceedings by not pursuing so precipitous a course. But after what had occurred, he would not press his motion. The Earl of Winchelsea objected to the precipitancy with which their Lordships were now acting. The original motion was then carried. The Disfranchisement Bill was then read a first time. O11 the motion of the Duke of Wellington, the House was ordered to be summoned on Thursday. In answer to a question from a noble Lord, The Duke of Wellington said it was his intention to move the second reading of the Disfranchisement Bill on Friday, if the debate on the other Bill should not be ad- journed. In that case, he would move the second read- ing 011 Monday. Their Lordships were then summoned for Friday. The Ditto of Richmond declared his intention to op- pose the Disfranchisement Bill to the utmost of his power. A number of petitions, for and against the Catholic claims, were then presented.— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY, March 30.— A number of petitions were presented on the subject of tlie Catholic claims. Mr. Peel having moved the 3d reading of tile Catholic Relief Bill. The Marquis of Chandos moved as an amendment that the bill read a 3d time on that day six months. Mr. Hyde Villiers spoke in favour of the measure. General Gascoyne contended that the sacrifices which the people of England were called upon to make by this measure were far greater than any commensurate good that could be obtained. Mr. W. Bankes dissented from the proposed measure on its principle, and in all its details. He. was sorry, but he must complain that the house had been worse treated bv their friends than by their enemies, ( Hear, hear, and > laughter.) What former occasion was there, 011 which tliey might not have had better terms ? On every former proposal there bad been some talk, some show, some seeming, at least, of real and essential securities. There had, 0: 1 all former occasions, been some talk of inter- ference iu the appointment of the Catholic hierarchy, to • C lim those just ami reasonable apprehensions entertained by the Protestant Establishment, But what had they now before them ? Nothing at all of security— nothing but open, unconditional surrender. But they had heard it argued that tlie Bill had not been the offspring of in- timidation. If lie had never seen any thing of what was passing aiound him— if ho had never heard one word of the Catholic Association— of their fiets, of their speeches, of their publications, and of their menaces— it the name of Daniel O'Connell had never sounded in his cars, lie should yet have seen " Panic" written on the very face of this Bill. What were the signs and symbols, and the proposed effects of this Bill ? Were they net to give up all— to throw everything aside— to run forward heedlessly without looking to the right or to the left? Was it not hard, was it not precipitate, that time was not given even to name a new Law Officer of the Crown ? ( Hear, hear, from Sir C. Wethereil, and laughter from all sides of the House.) " i ke Bill was passing without the name of any legal adviser - of tile Crown to give it authority. Let us ( said the lion, member) look for a moment to the provisions of this great conciliatory measure, and see what crumbs of comfort we may be enabled to pick out of it, ( Cheers and laughter.) I find that a King's Minister may be a Roman Catholic; but then we have the consolation of knowing that that Minister is not to Advise the King upon matters connected with church patronage, or church property. But, Sir, if a Roman Catholic Minister should advise his Majesty upon matters touching church patronage or church property, who is to reveal the fact of his having done so ? Wc all know that from every Catholic country in the world the Jesuits have been expelled; but this conciliatory bill expresses a woid against tlie introduction of Jesuits into these realms; ana the only precaution against their acts is, that their names are to be mustered, and placed in tlie posstsiion of the Secretary f r tlie Home Department, We have been told that we have no right to complain of the conduct of his Majesty's Ministers; ' nut I must say, that w e have in the present instance reason to complain of them. I say that they have stolen upon us in the night—( Cheers and laughter)— they have thrown a fire- brand into the body of the Church, which will soon ex- tand to its rafters and its roof; they have given rise to a flame which will soon leave the edifice a blackened and desolated ruin. ( Cheers.) I say. Sir, that they have done this craftily and cunningly, because they have done it advisedly. ( Cheers.) They have raised a Same which they may depend upon it will not long . smoulder, but will, at the first gust, extend itself to the Church of Ireland. T1 ere the first blow will be struck, but when the wedge shall have entered it will be easily driven home. ( Cheers and laughter.) Honourable members may look upon this as matter of laughter and merriment, but I consider it to be a matter of sorrow and lamentation. ( Cheers.) There may be a difference be- tween the Church Establishment of England and that of Ireland ; but with respect to Church property and Church patronage, ihere is not the slightest. He who assails the one, assails tlie other; and we may depend upon it, that if the Church of Ireland be overturned, the Church Of England will not stand for twenty years after it. ( Hear, hear.) The Solicitor- General— Any one who heard the hon. Member's speech would be led to suppose that the mo- ment this measure was passed the Roman Catholics would upset the Church Establishment, and burn our Churches in one common conflagration. ( Hear, hear, and laughter.) Sir, I am almost tempted to say that such apprehensions are ridiculous. I am inclined to rely more upon the purity and morality of our Protestant faith, the excel- lency of its doctrines, and the mildness and forbearance with which they were inculcated, to dread for a moment any inroad on the part of Roman Catholics. ( Hear, hear.) It should be remembered that when we had a Protestant Monarch, and when the great majority of the people were Catholics, the Protestant Reformed Religion made its way; it went on silently and gradually, to be sure, but still it did progress, and ultimately with the most complete success. ( Cheers.) How then can any man, at the present day, apprehend that that religion will be destroyed, or in any way invaded by the Ca- tholics, merely because some few of them may sit in the one or tlie other House of Parliament? If I believed that these concessions would in the slightest degree weaken the Protestant faith— in which I thank God I have beeii educated which in my manhood and maturer age has been my comfort— in which I hope I shall die, and for which some of my forefathers have suffered—( Cheers)— I should be the last person to advocate the change. ( Cheers.) It is because I felt well assured that without this measure the Irish Church might fall, and that even the English Church was in danger, that I gave my humble assistance in bringing forward this measure. It was on these grounds that I at first gave it my concur- rence, and that I now continue to support it. ( Cheers.) Sir C. Wetherell — Whether I am the late, or whether j I am the existing Attorney- General, I know not ( hear), but I will say that I have acted in perfect sincerity in the construction which I have put upon my oath of office. When I was called 011 to draw this Bill, I critically ex- amined whether I could do so consistently with my oath of office; and whether, if I did draw it, I should not be in effect destroying that Protestant establishment which I was bound by my oath to advise the King not to assail, and which he was equally bound by his oath to preserve. I addressed myself to that strict and pungent question, and I answered it thus:—" I shall be putting mv Sovereign in jeopardy if, in the capacity of first law officer of tlie Crown, I advise him to do an act which I believe will be in effect a subversion of that which he is bound by his oath to maintain." ( Cheers.) Whoever thinks that this Bill does not endanger the maintenance of the Protestant Church may, salva conscientia, be a strong supporter of it; but whoever cannot entertain that opinion must oppose it, in order to support the Con- stitution of 1681), which the King and all his sworn servants arc bound to support and maintain. The oath in this Bill furnishes no security. Who can prove that a Catholic Privy Councillor has given illegal advice to the King? Who can check a Catholic Prime Minister in his attempts against the Church ? ft is said we may have the security of the Home Secretary. But quis custodiet ipsos custodes ? Who will keep the keepers ? Who will stand guard for the Church, and saj; that no man shall eat her bread who'disputes her doctrines and betrays her interests ? ( Cheers.) That no man who writes one day on one side and another day on another— ( Cheers)— shall receive lier support, and that such ter- giversating men shall not be allowed in the Church ? If the Prime Minister recommends an improper appoint- ment, it is said that the Home Secretary will refuse to countersign it. But suppose the Home Secretary is a Catholic, or, if he is not, suppose him to be a friend to the Premier, so that what one does the other will, through sympathy, adopt— then, I say. you have no security. Among other innovations, this bill is to give us the benefit of Catholic Judges. Allybone was a Judge and a Jesuit, the last that graced our Bench, who wore the ermined exterior of a Judge, and scandalised and vilified the ad- ministration of British law by his charge to the Jury in the case of the Seven Bishops. He gave us a sample of what may be expected from a Papist, when elevated to that station. If, therefore, we have Catholic Judges, we shall have Jesuit Allybones. and we shall be able to speak and write nothing against the public authorities without the terrors of excommunication. 1 will notnow trouble tlie House further ; this is a second time I have been called into the field ; and if a third time I must meet my adversaries, I am ready to throw down my gauntlet, and I will not refuse the encounter. Mr". Peel —- According to the doctrine of the hon. gen- tleman, any man who lays down an obnoxious or incor- rect doctrine on the Bench is, by so doing, not 1 ily dis- qualified himself for civil liberty, but his erroneous doctrine is to disqualify, throughout all generations, all persons who may possess the same faith. ( Cheers, and hear, hear.) The argument of the honourable gentle- man is worth nothing, or it tells against the Protestants quite as much as against the Catholics. The hon. gen- tleman has lately informed the House correctly, that a communication was made to him seven days before the meeting of Parliament, of the intentions of the Govern- ment relative to this Bill; and the House would suppose, when this communication was made to the hon. gentle- man, that he had declared that he could not assist to draw the Bill, and that he could not support the principle of the measure; but the hon. gentleman said nothing whatever by which it could be inferred that he did, not acquiesce in the measure. ( Sir C. Wetherell here inter- rupted Mr. Peel.) 1 am bound to add. Sir, that the hon. gentleman did assist in drawing the Bill for the Suppres- sion of the Catholic Association. We thought it was not fair to ask his assistance 111 drawing the Bill to put down the Association, without communicating the whole inten- tions of the Government, as far as the principle of the measure was concerned, l'he hon. gentleman made no objections; lie assisted in drawing the Bill to suppress the Catholic Association. He did more. He assisted us with his legal advice in drawing up the present Bill, both as respects the law of endowments and of ecclesiastical charities. It was not until the 13d of February that the hon. gentleman expressed any opinion against the mea- sure, or any determination not to draw the Bill. But Parliament met on the fith of February. ( Hear, hear.) The intentions of the Government were communicated to the linn, gentleman seven days before the meeting of Par- liament ; he assisted in drawing the Bill for suppressing the Catholic Association ; be assisted us with his advice, namely, on the subjects of the law of endowments, and superstitious usages, and never during that time did he express any doubt of the general policy of the measure. The Hon. Gentleman states as his first objection to this Bill, that it opens and allows an unrestricted intercourse: with the See of Rome. The Bill does no such thing. It does not repeal a single Art which now restrains that in- tercourse. The Bill admits the Roman Catholics to the exercise of equal civil rights with Protestants, and does not recognise the intercourse with the Holy Sec. The exceptions from office in the Bill of 1793 were more nu- merous than by the psesCnt Bill. The Hon. Gentleman says that the Roman Catholics' oaths will not prevent Catholics from attempting to weaken the Protestant Re- ligion. If this argument is well founded, how does he reconcile it with the declaration to admit the Dissenters ? The declaration of a Dissenter when he enters Parlia- ment is, that he shall not use any power or influence he may possess by virtue of any office he holds to weaken the Protestant Church Establishment. The Bill admitted the Roman Catholics into the Privy Council, calling 011 them to take an oath that they will not use their privi- leges for the injury of the Established Church. We are not willing that the Catholics should be excluded, and we are willing to provide for the security of ihe Esta- blished Church. The objection of the Hon. Gentleman is not well founded, when he states that the Church pre- ferment of Scotland is to be placed in the hands of the Archbishop of Caaterbury. The Bill does no such thing, and cither the Hon. Gentleman has not read or has not understood tlie Bill if he supposes that it vests any power over the Church of Scotland in tlie hands of the Arch- bishop. The Hon. Gentleman hail spoken of our Churches being consumed— first, the lighter ornaments are to be the prey of the flames, which are then to extend to the whole edifice, and consume them, as York Mins- ter was consumed. We, however, will not be the incen- diaries— we will not be like Martin, who applied the torch to the building, nor do anything that can warrant the most distant inference that we have any of that ma- niac's hostility. The late speeches of the Members who opposed the measure, left the question where it was be- fore. ( Hear, hear.) Those speeches were full of personal invective, unworthy of notice, and did not convince any person of the impropriety of the present measure, or sug- gest any other which ought to be adopted in the pressing exigency of the state of Ireland. This important part of the subject remains as it was. I have, however, received a letter this morning from the highest authority in Ire- land ; it is a private letter, but I will read one sentence to shew that the measure has already had some good effect. The letter is dated March 27, and it states that the amelioration is visible in all parts of social life, and more particularly in the public peace of the country. ( Cheers.) ( The Right Hon. Gentleman read another passage, in which the people were described as every where burying their animosities, and living in peace.) This information is confirmed from all quarters. All the violent parties in Ireland on both sides, seeing the parties in the Legislature lay aside their differences, bud seconded its efforts in a manner that ditl them the highest honour. This is before the Bill i. ua passed, and already violent men of both aides recal their Violent opinions, and long to bury the animosities that were last year excited. But, should the Bill be rejected, it would not only destroy the effect of conciliation, but also, by raising the disappointed expectations of the Roman Catholics, tend to widen the breach already existing between parties in Ireland. To that consideration alone every man should give its due weight, whatever his opinions may be as to the abstract policy of this measure. Even if he think it decidedly wrong, it may, nevertheless, be perfectly consistent with that opinion, looking to the consequences that will ensue from failure, to argue that the measure, having been brought fosward, and it being impossible ever again to replace matters in their original position, it would be bet- ter to pass the Bill than to risk the effects of its defeat. I do not merely wish to seize the advantages the measure would give us ; but, as we now stand, to avoid the perils its loss would entail upon us. On these grounds 1 earn- estly entreat the House to pause before it contemplates the rejection of the measure. Sir R. Inglis would ask whether this measure was such a one as was calculated to satisfy the Roman . Catho- lics themselves. From the authority of Mr. O'Connell himself, and others equally well known as the supporters of the Catholic Question, it might easily be seen that the answer to that inquiry must be in the negative : and if this were the case, how was it to be hoped that this measure was all that was required to tranqnilize Ireland ? With respect to the Protestant population of the kingdom, he had no hesitation in saying that nine- tenths of it were against this Bill; and he felt it. was the duty of every man to rally round the constitution, and to put forth all bis energies for its preservation. Mr. Sadler I feel it to be a duty which I owe to myself, and which I am sure my constituents will exact of me, to oppose this impolitic, unconstitutional, and ruinous measure, at every stage of its progress. I will repeat what 1 previously asserted, and which I have not heard disproved, namely, that the distresses and dis- turbances in Ireland, like those which prevailed in the manufacturing districts of England a very few years ago, originate in general indigence and distress ; that they have been attributed in the one instance to the wart of Catholic Emancipation, in the other to the want of Par- liamentary Reform ; that you spurned one class of pe- titioners; that you are about to surrender to the other; that you met the commotion in that case with punish- ment, and even bloodshed; in this, with open connivance, , if not with approbation. The remedies I ventured to propose were to be found in " the fair delightful arts of peace"— the encouragement and reward of industry— the relief of misery and sorrow— the diffusion of knowledge — the propagation of truth— the extension to a suffering race of the common rights of humanity— the return of their natural protectors to their several essential and im- portant duties— in a word, the promotion of general prosperity amongst a nation " peel'd and trodden under foot." I leave the civil war to those who cast the impu- tation upon me— theirs be the war against Protestant as- cendancy — against a moderated system of national re- lief— against a fancied redundancy of population, in a country pre- eminently fertile, not two- thirds of which is at present adequately cultivated— or, in other words, a war against true religion, charity, and Providence itself. No, Sir, the contest I recommended was against injus- tice in all its fornhs, and especially when abetted by wealth, and armed with power— against priestly domi- nation, against laical desertion— evils of which the ge- nerous and long suffering people of Ireland have been for ages at once the dupes and the victims— evils which I firmly believe the present measures will go far to per- petuate. ( Hear, hear.) The emancipation I would ask, in behalf of oppressed Ireland, does not affect the few whom this measure contemplates alone to serve, at the expense of the many whose political condition it evi- dently and intentionally degrades. It is not a sentimental emancipation, extending its privileges to the great Ca- tholic proprietors and Peers, the emancipation of the drawing room and the saloon ; it is an emancipation of the mass of the Irish people from the chains of supersti- tion and tyranny— from cruelty and oppression; an emancipation from tlie devastations of unrelieved want— from the desolation of universal wretchedness. By means simple, obvious, and efficacious, which every good man would hail, and which even the bad would fear to oppose — that is, by encouraging and rewarding labour— by pro- moting and extending cultivation— by the reclamation of those bogs and wastes which now freckle over the face of that fair and fertile country— above all, Sir, by the introduction of a moderated national charity— that sa- cred but much insulted system, which would descend upon that bruised and afflicted country, like an angel of mercy, with healing in its wings. It might, indeed, to use the fashionable cant of the day, absorb some of those products which are now unfeelingly wrested from a suffering people; but in so doing, it would fall like the kindly dews of heaven upon a parched and unwatered waste, renewing its beauty, and clothing it with fresh and unfailing verdure. Ireland would then, indeed, absorb what would restore her emaciated form to health, rein- force her wasted energies, and soothe her into peace. I make no apology for thus recalling to the House the subjects to which I previously alluded. I believe myself while so doing to be fulfiling to the very letter the Royal recommendation, and taking into mv consideration, as far as I am able, " the whole condition of Ireland." In taking these views I do not, in relation to that un- happy portion of the Empire, keep tlie word of . promise to the ear, and break it to the sense. Sir, it is out iny intention to fatigue the House by any particular allusion to the various provisions of this nefarious Bill. I re- frained from attending to them in the Committee; ab- horring as I did its principle, I felt little disposed to attend to its various enactments. I believe. Sir, that it affects in its very principle the Royal title; that it is subversive of the British Constitution, or, in other words, of the rights and liberties of the people of England ; that it is introduced on very insufficient, not to say fallacious, grounds; that its securities, whether meant as such or not, are mere delusions, are indifferent in their nature, and will be practically inoperative; that it will instantly introduce a confusion into our institutions, which will perpetually increase till the whole be subverted: that, in establishing a principle of indifference as to the public profession of religion, it will assuredly generate a con- tempt for Christianity itself. Hitherto the Protestant Church has been the true spouse, the faithful helpmate of the State— has followed all itv fortunes— now it is proposed to admit into the do- mestic establishment its meretricious rival; and this, for- sooth, under the assurance that such an association will heal all quarrels, and produce uninterrupted peace. The proposition is folly as well as injustice. But the singular character of this measure is this— its promoters themselves foresee the danger and difficulty which will ultimately attend even their own policy. They themselves are fully aware that futurity is big with danger as to its final con- sequences; but still, with a political cowardice which has been seldom exemplified in the annals of our country ( and which has always met its just recompense of punish- ment and shame whenever it has), it is proposed to trans- mit the momentary difficulties which might be dissipated by dealing with theni with a firm, but kind hand, to another day— to postpone the conflict to your children, whom you are this moment disarming of their constitu- tional rights— and sending to the struggle which awaits them with a foe whose powers you are thus increasing— you are surrendering the vantage ground— dispossessing them of the position in which our ancestors placed us. What then is the apology for this strange course, in which cowardice and apostacy arc the avowed guides ? Mo- mentary expediency ! Expediency, illumined by re- ligion, " and fortified by principle, is indeed, a safe adviser; but what is it when it purposely divests itself of both ? Expediency, Sir, is the ready apologist of the practical intriguer— the excuse of the ambitious slave— the justifica- tion of the inexorable tyrant! In a word, the lip defence of the most unprincipled policy, of the most heinous crimes that have ever disgraced or desolated the earth- Sir, history opens at every page on instances inscribed in the most appalling characters of the just punishment which has ever awaited individuals, or bodies of men, or nations, following so selfish and tortuous a path. Let us turn to the experience of own country, and see the in- evitable consequences of following in the hour of real dif- ficulty such a guide. Let the appropriate appeal be to the previous downfall of your Church and Monarchy here. When first this House thought it expedient to mark out a noble victim, not indeed without his failings, but who bore towards his King and country a faithful and a living heart— I mean the great Strafford—( whose noble descendant I regret to see opposite me 011 this occasion, and whose rebuke I have received)— it was expedient, Sir, that he should be sent to his trial; it was expedient that those by whom he was tried should pronounce him guilty; lastly, it was expedient that his Sovereign should sign the warrant that surrendered the most faithful of his adherents to death, to calm and tranquillize, as it was then pretended, the public mind; all animosity it was promised should be buried in tiie grave of the victim. All this was promised by " large and triumphant majori- ties." The denouement of this tragedy, of which ex- pediency was again the principle, was exhibited ill the front of Whitehall, whose front I see you are now repair- ing. Expediency destroyed the Church— murdered the King—( Continued cheers.) But where might we end in these appeals ? One more shall be made; and— as the matter and cause at issue are, in spite of all assertions to the contrary, plainly sacred— a most appropriate one— It was when a temporising Minister of an ancient people was anticipating the difficulties of their situation, and making in his day his " choice of evils," and appealing to the dangers and difficulties to be apprehended from the interference of foreign power, as do the advocates of the present measure, that he determined that an un- exampled sacrifice was to be made lest the Romans should come and take away their place and nation. " It is ex- pedient," says he, " that this man should perish— that this event should take place." Sir, the present occasion is only less important than that. Protestantism is now the victim— expediency still the priest. ( Hear.) That sacred principle for which our fathers struggled so • long, and which they deemed as cheaply purchased at the expence of life, is about to be surrendered from a cowardly apprehension of dangers, which, however, its very advocates do nfit pretend that it will dissipate, but only change, not remove, buf perhaps postpone. ( Hear, hear.) It is about to be surrendered to expediency ! In a choice of evils it is asserted that its destruction would be the lesser one. Sir, the measure ought not thus to be presented ; it. is a choice of evil in preference . to good. Banish, Sir, this crooked policy— tins disgraceful guide— and the choice will be good— present and permanent good. In the ancient path in which your ancestors so nobly trod there may be indeed difficulties interposed, obstacles to be overcome; but these will but heighten your glory a:: d increase its reward, preserve your Constitution— become the true friend, the real benefactor of Ireland— | succour and save her by safer, kinder, surer methods than I those now proposed— and the patriot attempt will have the approbation of your own consciences, the gratitude of your country, and the applauses of posterity. ( Cheers.) ; But, Sir, I say, this House— this Parliament— has no right to rob the people 0!' England of their privileges as Protestants in the manner no; v contemplated. We are convened by our sovereign— we are sent by our consti tuents for no such purpose. We. are interdicted by the solemn oaths we have taken at that table from pursuing such a course. Majorities, Sir, cannot render that true . which is evidently false— just which is manifestly other- wise. I appeal to the literary father of English liberty on this point, Locke, whose reasonings in the conclusion of his celebrated Treatise on Government are manifestly with me. I appeal to a greater than Locke— one whose warm patriotism, inflexible honesty, inviolate honour, has never been exceeded, rarely equalled— one whose wisdom, genius, eloquence, has never been approached— I mean the immortal Chatham. Exult then over the still faithful band who remain true to their principles and professions ! Boast in your majo- rity ! Carry up your Bill to the other branch of the Legislature, as in a triumphant procession ! Tell us of the honours, the wealth, the influence, you muster in its train ! These, Sir, may be there. But I tell you who will not. Sir. The people of England will not be there : they will not assist you to carry up this nefarious Bill; they stand aloof, and, despised and insulted, they pursue it through every stage of its progress, with curses not loud but deep— but with curses that may still deepen and wax louder, till, as they once did, on a like occa- sion, they break forth in those thunders which shook the very pillars and foundation of the throne. This Bill you will take up; but it will be received by a noble race which had hitherto sent its heroes to the defence of the cause of England ; of a sacred order who have gone to prison and to death fot it. We fix our hopes on them, but even they, Sir, are not our last hope. We trust in our Monarch and our God! Sir, I have done. I am aware my feeble voice can have no influence. I am told none would, however powerful, against the phalanx united in hostility to the Protestant cause. Cemented and influenced as it is, reason, intreaty, remonstrance, are unavailing. All I can do is done. I have laid this last offering upon the altar of my country, humble as it is. My life should lie added, could the sacrifice be availing ! A feeling which I partake with millions ! After some observations from Mr. V. Fitzgerald, the question was loudly called for, when a division took place: For the Amendment 1421 . r- i. iTii For the third reading 320 j ' MaJ0Uty 1/! i- An amendment moved by Col. Sibthorpe having been negatived, Mr. Peel was instructed to carry the Bill up to the House of Lords. All the friends os the measure then rose, cheering, and waving their hats and handkerchiefs; a great number crowded around Mr. Peel, and shook the Right Hon. Gentleman heartily by the hand. The Forty- shilling Freeholders ( Ireland) Bill was also read a third time and passed.— Adjourned. TUESDAY, March 31 Mr. Hume moved an Ad- dress to the King, for a return of the number of persons enrolled in the Commission of the Peace in England and Wales, stating the number who had taken out a dedimus, and were now acting. Mr. C. Grant moved for a series of Returns connected with the Trading Shipping of the country, with the view of ascertaining the number so engaged, their tonnage, and other particulars. Mr. Baring gave notice that he would, on Wednesday, the 8th of April, move for leave to bring in a Bill, to oblige Members of Parliament accepting of Governor- ships in India to vacate their seats. Mr. Lennard moved for an account of the number of causes tried ill the Middlesex County Court, from the time of the appointment of the present County Clerk down to the 25th of March, distinguishing the fees and other charges paid on the same— Ordered. Sir C. Burrell called the attention of the Right Hon. Secretary (. Mr. Peel) to a circumstance of a most shock- ing nature, which appeared this day in a public paper. It appeared that two Irishmen, named O'Donnell and Daly, were charged at Worship- street Office with enticing an unfortunate girl, named Elizabeth Coombs, intoa lone place, and there violently assaulting her; she happily escaped from them, but from the mode of the assault, and circumstances attending it, the magistrate, Mr. Broughton, said he had no doubt but they intended to murder the girl for the purpose of disposing of her body. The Hon. Baronet observed that if surgeons were to take dead bodies into their dissecting- houses without ever once making any inquiries respecting them, as it appeared they had done at Edinburgh, then he must say that they ought to be as much guarded against as those villains and scoun- drels tlie body- stealers. He was persuaded the Right Hon. Gentleman must agree with him that some law for the protection of poor persons was necessary beyond the law as it now stood. ' Mr, Peel said that it would be extremely difficult to make the law stronger than it was at present with respect to offences against the person. It would be recollected that in the course of the last Session an Act was passed to consolidate the laws relating to such offences, ar. d in that Act some necessary and justifiable severity was introduced. The penalty o'f death was adjudged in such a case as that mentioned by the Hon. Baronet; and it would be diffi- cult to affix even to such a crime a more extreme punish- ment than that of death. The Right Hon- Secretary then shewed how the clauses of the late Act bore upon such cases. With respect to the surgical profession, the Hon. Baronet was aware that a measure was at present under the consideration of the House, which had for its object to provide a better supply of subjects for the pur- poses of dissection. In the course of that measure the Hon Baronet would have the opportunity of making such suggestions as he should consider useful. Sir C. Burrell said he wished to suggest, that three ought to be some houses properly licensed and authorized, and under proper inspection and control, where surgeons should be allowed to practise anatomy, and that nothing of the kind should be suffered to be carried 011 in private houses. The House having resolved into a Committee on the Auction Duties Acts, the Chancellor of the Exchequer proposed a resolution to this effect— That it is the opinion of this Committee, that all Duties of Excise 011 public Sales by Auction should cease, and that in their stead the following duties should henceforth be payable. For everv 100/. which shall be given as the highest price for any lot offered for public sale when such highest price shall not exceed 10,000/., 1/. for every hundred. When the price shall excecd 10,000/., and shall not exceed 20,011( 1/., then for every 100/. of the first 10,000/., 1/.; and for every 1IH)/. above that, ten shillings.

His Majesty continues to enjoy good health ; but the constant cold weather has hitherto prevented him from enjoying his usual recreations. The Duke of Cumberland left town yesterday morning for Ills Majesty's Palace at Windsor, where his Royal Highness bad an interview with the King, and afterwards returned to town, to his residence in the King's Palace, St. James's. The Roman Catholic RElief Bill was carried to the House of Lords yesterday evening by Mr. Peel and a large concourse of Members. There was a full at- tendance of Peers, both Spiritual and Temporal. Last night, in the expectation of the Catholic Bills being conveyed to the House of Lords, long before the commencement of business the House was exceed- ingly crowded. The Peers' seats were thronged— every seat on the Bishops' benches was occupied— and before five o'clock, the Duke of Wellington appeared in his place. Beyond the Woolsack, and about the Throne, there were many Members of the Commons ; and several distinguished Ladies occupied the most prominent stations. Amongst them were noticed the Duchess of Richmond, Lady Harrowby and daughters, the Misses Manners, Lady Salisbury, Mrs. Arbuthnot, & c. Heretofore ladies were admitted with the orders of Sir T. Tyrwhitt, Usher of the Black Rod; but now they arc become the wards of the Lord Chancellor. Below the bar was crammed witli strangers, and hundreds applied who could not get admission. Tlie Duke of Wellington, after having an audience of his Majesty 011 Monday afternoon, at his Pa- lace at Windsor, returned to town in the evening. His Grace w,: s visited at the Treasury, yesterday, by the Lord Chancellor, Earl Bathurst, Lord Ellenborough, Mr. Secretary Peel, and Sir George Murray, who all had in- terviews with the Duke. It is expected that Lord Grenville will make an effort to attend in his place in the House of Lords 011 the second reading of the Catholic Relief Bill. A Committee of the House of Commons is now investigating the cause of the high price of coals in London, which, on the authority of tlie Marquis of Lon- donderry, may be purchased at the pit's mouth at lfi to 1U shillings a chaldron. On Sunday afternoon, between two and three o'clock, the metropolis was visited with one of those dense fogs which are not unusual in November and De- cember, but very uncommon at this period of the year. So great was the darkness, that the afternoon service in the Churches could scarcely be proceeded with. It is reported that the Emperor of Brazil is going to send two Commissioners to England, to settle his differences with Portugal, and that the adjustment Kill be left to the mediation of the British Government. Don Miguel, it is added, has proposed to marry the young Queen of Portugal in four or five years, if he is left quietly seated on the throne of Portugal. She is not to proceed to Vienna, but it is inunded to take her back to the Brazils. Tlie Duke of Wellington is remarkably active in his habits, and an early riser. His Grace i generally walking in the interior of St. James's Park by seven o'clock in the morning. Some weeks since his Grace was walking in the new enclosures when it was scarcely light. He returns home to breakfast between nine and ten o'clock, and during the day is occupied in official business, seeing the Cabinet Ministers, who consult him 011 any important occurrence that happens in their dif- ferent departments; also the Foreign Ministers, the Secretaries to the Treasury, & c. His Grace lias very little leisure for walking or riding in the middle of the day. When the Duke goes to Windsor he rides on horseback part of the way ( his travelling open carriage following him), till he feels inclined to dismount and enter the carriage, which has seldom more than a pair of horses to travel with, and only one servant attends. The open carriage in which he travels is a great favourite, being very light; his Grace used it in Russia. The Noble Duke frequently is present at several parties in the course of an evening. He lately presided at the City of London Orphan Establishment, thence to the French play at the Opera House, and from that enter- tainment he went to the party given by the Lady of the Dutch Ambassador, in Bryanston- square. Ilis Grace takes very few hours rest. He sleeps on his favourite camp bedstead. From the Parliamentary returns it appears that the gross sums raised in England and Wales under the general head of poor- rates during the year Uiif), amounted to 7,715,000/. There is an average diminution of expense, as compared with the year preceding, of about 2 per cent, throughout the country, which is a satisfac- tory circumstance, considering the increased price of corn. One of the clauses in the Catholic Relief Bill excludes O'Connell from sitting in Parliament unless he go through another election, EXETER, March 30.— Between thirty and forty thousand signatures have already been appended to the County Address to the Throne, praying his Majesty to withhold his royal assent from the Catholic Relief Bill now before Parliament. BUCHAREST, March 9.— Tt is but very lately that the roads have become passable. Colonial produce and wines in particular are in great request, and at high prices. Last week, however, we received a large supply. which came very opportunely, as a great deal is required tor the troops that daily arrive. The Russian army is ill full march to the Danube, and it is a fine sight to see " the columns pass; the cavalry and artillery are particu- larly excellent, and attract the attention and commenda- tions of all judges of these matters. For some days past a heavy cannonade has been beard in the direction of Giurgivo, and we expect shortly to hear some news from that quarter. I here are various accounts of the points at which the Russian troops will pass the Danube— Ismali, near Giurgivo; Petra, near Tournoul; and Kalefat, op- posite Widdin, are spoken of. Of course nothing positive can be asserted before hand, as the materials ( timber and cordage) requisite for effecting the passage are prepared at all these places, Private letters from St. Petersburg state that the Russian army is to receive a great addition of cavalry ; a vast quantity of accoutrements of the best qualities are forwarded to the armies 011 the Danube. RoME, March 1.').— Most ol the travellers who passed the winter in Rome have deserted it for Naples, which is now, in its turn, so extremely full that lodgings are obtained with the greatest difficulty. The coronation of the new Pope, which is in general a very splendid ceremony, and which takes place a week after his election, will probably be the means of making many of them return. HENRY HASE., ESQ. — The late Chief Cashier of the Bank of England, whose decease occurred 011 Thursday last, in the 67th year of his age, expired in a manner awfully sudden. He had been indisposed for a few days previous to the last evening of lira life, but was then apparently recovering, and expected to have been able to proceed in his carriage to his office on the follow- ing day. He had been sitting ill his drawing room, in company with his now afflicted widow, to whom he was fondly attached, when he rose for the purpose of walking into an adjoining apartment, but on reaching the door lie fell, and instantly breathed his last. He was a gentle- man of extraordinary abilities, and of a social disposition, intimately acquainted with the late Dr. A. Rees, by whom, and by a numerous circle of friends, he w. s highly respected. His attention to business, great arith- metical attainments, and strict integrity of principle, were noticed and duly appreciated by the late Abraham New- land, Esq. at whose recommendation and under whose fostering care he rose gradually from a comparatively humble station to the office of assistant, or second cashier. He was also one of the executors of Mr. Newland, and at his decease was appointed by the Honourable Board of Directors to succeed him in his office. The dying words of Lord William Russell, who was beheaded in Lincoln's- inn- fiields 011 the 21st July 1683, for his opposition to the establishment of the Roman Catholic religion, are preserved in letters of gold at Woburn Abbey. Among the expressions used by him on the scaffold were:—" 1 wish all Protestants may love one another, and not make room for Popery by their animosities. I did believe, and do so still, that Popery is breaking in upon this nation, & that those that advance it will stop at nothing to carry on their design." A large body of lower Irish have offered to form themselves into a guard, to protect the Duke of Wellington in his passage to and from the House of Lords. Some property was sold last week at Brighton for 2000/., which a few years ago might have been pur- chased for 200/. Taunton Theatre opened on Monday last, under the management of Mr. Shatford, who has suc- ceeded Mr. Lee. He has engaged a number of new performers, and Mr. Dowton, from Drury- lane, is en gaged for the Assize week. The 4th Irish Dragoon Guards, ' mm stationed to Exeter barracks are to march for York on the 9th, 10th. and 11th of April. Tlie stock of animals, See. at Exeter Change comes to the hammer in a few days to make room for the projected Strand improvements. The bankruptcy of one of the principal firms of coach proprietors, Messrs. Eames, of the Angel Inn, St. Clement's, has excited a great sensation amongst persons connected with the coach business, both in Lon- don and the country. Their failure is attributed to the unusual opposition that has taken place on almost all the roads out of London during the season. So great has been the recent mortality smong horses, that one great stage- coach owner is said to have lost 100, and another, 160, in the short space of 6 weeks. The fight between Jones and Redmond, for 1001. a- side, took place yesterday at No- man's Land, Herts, Spring and Gaynor seconding the sailor boy, while Peter Crawley and Fishwick picked up Redmond. The latter was beaten in 9 rounds. Mr. Kean is at present in Dublin ; he intends to proceed to Cork, when, after performing a few nights, he will return to Dublin, and appear at the theatre there for a limited number of nights. Mr. Macready is also 111 Dublin. At Tralee assizes the glorious uncertainty of the law may be elicited from One fact. A man named Daly was indicted for stealing eight sheep ; his guilt was undeniable, but a witness came up for the defence to swear that two of the eight sheep were rams. On this le- gislative fiction, the accused was acquitted I— Dublin Paper. Irish Feeling on the Emancipation Question.— An Irish drover, who had the charge of a lot of pigs, called last week at the Castle Inn, in Bath, to learn the residence of a farmer in the neighbourhood; and, on being asked by some gentleman what was the feeling of his countrymen 011 the Catholic Question, briskly replied, " Fait I don't know— How did the big fight come oil'be- tween Paddy Byrne and Ward ?" CAUTION,— By the late Act for licensing public houses, mechanics, labourers, and servants, were prohibited from playing cards, dominos, & c. in public houses— the landlord of the house in wkich they played was also subjected to a penalty ; but the prohibition did not extend to persons of any other description than those mentioned. By the present Act, all persons whatsoever are prohibited from playing at any game of chance in any licensed house, and the landlord of any house where such game is played, is subjected to a penalty of forty shillings. DREADFUL FIRES. — Early on Friday morning a fire broke out at the house of Mr. Bailey, a retired chemist, at Camberwell; and so rapid were ' he flames, ill t a sister of Mr. Bailey, one of his children, and another child staving in his house, fell sacrifices to the devastating element. The other inmates narrowly escaped. The flames communicated to the house of a baker, a straw- bonnet maker, and a shoe- maker, all of which were destroyed. Another fire broke out on Friday morning in the pre- mises of Mr. Skipper, stationer, in St. Dunstan's Hill, winch were totally destroyed, together with the spacious premises of Messrs. Chater and Haywood, glass mer- chants. The progress of the flames was arrested by the fire engines. Happily no lives were lost. HORRIBLE CASE OF INFANTICIDE. — A woman named Barrett, 30 years of age, residing at Stepney- green, was delivered of a child on Friday night; and in the hope of concealing its birth, she put the body on the fire, and burnt it to cinders. As the head did not con- sume rapidly enough, she severed it from the body, and split it in two, putiing the divided portion into two> flower- pots, and covering them with mould and a tulip root to remove all suspicion The unhappy wretch remains in custody at her lodgings, but is too ill to b; removed with safety. VORACITY OF THE COD. — On Thursday after- noon, when a fisherwoman in the market was cutting up a huge cod, to her great surprise she found a marot, or wild duck, in the stomach. It was carefully examined, and no doubt remained that it had been gobbled only a very short time before its destroyer swallowed the hook which brought both to market. — Scotsman.

HAPPINESS " the gay tomorrow of the mind" is ensured by marriage; " the strictest tie of perpetual Friendship," is a gift from Heaven, cementing pleasures with reason, by which, says Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association with celestial intelligence." Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed ob. ligation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to rt- gulate the passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature fr , ni those impurities which the freedom of uniestricttd plea- sure m iy have entailed upon it. To tlie neglect of such attention, are attributable many of those hapless instances, which, while thev excite the commiseration of the bo- holder, should also impress him with the fear of self- reproach. Luxurious habits will effeminize the body— a residence in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre— but more es- pecially does the premature infatuation of youth, ton frequently compromise the natural dignity into a state of inanition, frjni whence the agonized sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief.

SUPPLIES for the Russian army are coming from all quarters ; the roads are covered with them. The inhabitants will be oblige 1 to conduct them to their destination. The Jews are by no means exempt from this service ; 52 drivers of that nation have been ordered from the town of Boltoschan. The pre- sumption that the army will endeavour to penetrate into Servia by way of Orsowa and Widdin daily gains ground, and the Porte seems to expect it; for it is making ar- rangements accordingly. It is generaly thought that about the 27th of March, all the Russian troops which are assembled in the two Principalities will march to the Danube; and, it is affirmed that the operations of the next campaign will begin by the attack of the fortresses of Silistria and Ghiurgevo. , , During die month of February, the Turks attempted several sallies from the latter fortress, but they were always repulsed. HOUSE OF LORDS. WEDNESDAY, April 1.— The Earl of Blessington took the oalhs and his seat. Lord Clifden presented a petition against that clause r, t the Bill for the removal of the disabilities affecting our Roman Catholic fellow- subjects, which gave to the Go- vernment power over the Jesuits and the other monastic institutions in Great Britain. It was signed by several individuals of high character of the Roman Catholic persuasion in Ireland. The petition was from the Catholic Bishop and Clergy of Kildare. The Duke of Leinster said, that Jesuits in Ireland were merely employed in the education of youth ; they were examined by the Fellows of Trinity College, Dub- lin ; and they invited ar, y person who pleased, to inspect thfeir system of education. Petitions ill favour of the Catholic Claims were pre- sented bv the Duke of Leinster and Marquis Camden- The Bishop of Bath and Wells presented several pe- titions from the Clergy and inhabitants of places in Somersetshire, against further Concessions to Roman Catholics. Earl Grey presented two petitions against the Disfran- chisement Bill,— one signed by Lord Killeen and a num- ber of natives of Ireland resident in London; the other from three parishes in Dublin— Adj. THURSDAY, April 2— That part of the House nex1 the Throne was much crowded by Members of the House of Commons, mingled with whom were several ladies. Below the bar a vast number of strangers assembled, who had been admitted by Peers' orders. Petitions aeainst concessions to the Catholics were presented by Lord Boston, the Karl of Kldon, Duke ot Richmond, the Bishop of St. Davids, Lord Howe, Lord Redesdale. Lord Farnham, Lord Kenyon, Earl Brown- low, Archbishop of Armagh, Lord Middleton, and Duke of Newcastle. The Earl of Radnor presented a petition in favour ot concession, from Folkstone. Petitions in favour of the Catholic claims were pre- sented by the Earl of Enniskillen, Earl of Roseberry, ' Lord Maryborough, Marquis of Conyngham, and Lord Melville. , . The Duke of Wellington having moved the second reading of the Catholic Relief Bill, said- My Lords, the point which I shall first bring under your Lordships consideration is the state of Ireland. That country has been disturbed for the last 30 years— but within the last year or two political circumstances have, in no small de- gree, occasioned that agitation. Although I have no positive legal proof of the fact, I have every reason to believe that there has been a considerable organization of the people for the purposes of mischief. ( Hear, hear.) This organization is, it appears to me, to be proved, not only by the declarations of those who formed and ar- ranged it, but likewise by the effects which it has pro- duced in the election of churchwardens throughout the Country ; in the circumstances attending the late election for tile county of Clare; in the circumstances that pre- ceded and followed that election, of a . gentleman who went at the head of a most numerous body ot men to tilt lWrtb of Ireland ; in the simultaneous proceedings ot various bodies of men in the South of Ireland; in the proceedings of another gentleman, of another county; and in the recal of this gentleman fiom the North ot Ireland by the Roman Catholic Association. It is quite obvious to me that, there was an organization and direc- tion of some superior authority, and this organization has produced a state of society in Ireland which we have not heretofore witnessed, and an aggravation ot all the evils which before afflicted that unfortunate country. — His Grace here entered into a description of the state of society in Irelrnd, which was such that the King could not create a Peer, as his Majesty's servants could not venture to recommend the risks of an election; but still, there was no resistance to the law; the magistrates were terrified, and did nothing; the means in possession of Government did not enable- Government to put an end to this state of things ; and when we hear ( said his Grace) noble Lords reproaching the Government for not carrying into execution the law in Ireland, as it was carried into execution in England, the observation shows that they don't understand the state of things in Ireland. _ My Lords, we recollect perfectly well that the opinion of the majority in another place is, that the remedy for til is state of things in Ireland is a repeal of the disabili- ties affecting bis Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects— ( Cheers.) We might have gone and asked Parliament to enable us to put down the Roman Catholic Association ; but what chance had we of prevailing upon Parliament to pass such a Bill, without being prepared to come forward and state that we were ready to consider the whole condition of Ireland ?_( Hear, hear), with a view to apply a proper rtmely to that which Parliament had stated to be the cause of the disease. ( Hear, hear.) The disaffected in Ireland know as well as I do they are not strong enough to wrestle with the King's Government, backed by the law ; they know they would have been the Hirst victims of that resistance; but knowing that, and knowing the materials upon which they have to work, I have not the smallest ioabt that the state of things which I have stated to your Lordships would have continued, and that you would never have had an opportunity of putting it down in the manner some noble Lords imagined. I am one of those who have probably passed a longer period of my life engaged in war than most men, and principally," I may say, in civil war; and I must say this, that if I could avoid, by any sacrifice whatever, even one month of civil war in the country to which I was attached, I would saciilice my life in order to do it. ( Cheers.) I say that there is nothing which destroys property and prosperity, and demoralizes character, to the degree that civil war does ; by it, the hand of man is raised against his neighbour, against his brother, and against Sis father; servant betrays master, and the whole scene ends inconfusion and disorder. I am old enough to remember the rebellion in 1798. I was not employed in Ireland . it the time— I was employed in another part of the dominions; but, my Lords, if I am not mistaken, the Parliament of Ireland at that time walked up to my Lord Lieutenant with a unanimous address, beseeching his Excellency to take every means to put down that unnatural rebellion, and promising their full support in order to carry that measure into execution. The Lord Lieutenant did take those mea- sures, and did succeed in putting down that rebellion. AVell, my Lords, what happened in the very next Session ? The Government proposed to put an end to the Parliament, and to form a Legislative Union between tiie two kingdoms, for the principal purpose of proposing this very measure—( cheers); and, in point of fact, the very first measure that was proposed after this Legislative Union, after those successful endeavours to put down this rebellion, was the very measure with whicli I am now about to trouble your Lordships. His Grace here argued, as a proof of the measure being desirable, that all the leading Protestants of Ireland were favourable to it; and he passed a high eulogium on the Clergy of the established Church in that country, than whom there did nor exist, in his opinion, a more exem- plary, a more pious, and more learned set of men. ( laving thus, my Lords, shown the necessity for some change in the system of Government, 1 shall now pro- ceed briefly to state the general provisions of the Bill. The Bill in itself is very specific and comprehensive. It concedes to the Roman Catholics every office of the State unconnected with the administration of the affairs of the Church. It also concedes to them scats in Parliament, and many other offices and situations from which they had formerly been altogether debarred. The conceding to Roman Catholics the right of sitting in Parliament ] do not conceive can be objected to on any good grounds of policy or reason. It cannot in any manner influence any question that comes before Parliament to the pre- judice of the Church of England. In the time of Charles 11, they had seats in both Houses. By the proposed law they are not required to take the oath of supremacy ; but an oath of allegiance had been framed, in which a great part of tile oath of supremacy has been retained, and which will answer sufficiumly that particular purpose. So far, then, this Act is much better than that of Chas. II. On another subject, I wish to say a few words"' Many in this House, as well as throughout the country— and I confess I was of that opinion myself— have contended that the State ought to have some security for the Protestant Church against the encroachment of the Catholic Clergy; but I confess, on examining the question, and looking more minutely than before at the foundation on which the security of the Church and State tests, I could find no security which would be satisfactory. The Bill, I think, my Lords, as it stands, affords more security than n.' iy that could have been received either from the Catho- lic Clergy or a foreign Potendate. The King has sworn to preserve the Protestant Church, the Bishops and Clergy, and every thing belonging to them. Now, how could he appoint L. Catholic Bishop without giving him a diocese ? These were still other grounds for granting Emanci- pation. There could be no doubt that after the Roman Catholics had been put on the same footing with their Protestant fellow- subjects— after the candid and liberal measure proposed for them— they would have no separate interest!, and could, therefore, have no grounds for con- firming tile suspicions which were entertained against them. They could execute nothing in this or the other House pf Pailiament. Parliament would look to them with the surne eye with which it has watched Scotland ; and I have no doubt that in a short time tile same amity and kindly feeling will prevail. If, however, we should be disappointed of the hopes of tranquillity, and attempts to create dissatisfaction should be renewed, I will without delay come down to lay the state of Affairs before Parliament, in order to enable the Government to meet the danger; and I am very confident, my Lords, that the Government on such an occasion, as well as upon this, meet with your Lord- ships' support and confidence. ( Hear, hear.) Having explained the grounds for the measure, I have nothing further to add than to entreat your Lordships to give a subject of such importance the most full, most partial, and most serious consideration. ( Cheers.) The Archbishop of Canterbury said he always opposed with great pain anv measure brought forward by Go- vernment; but it was with still gi eater pain that he now rose to oppose a Government whose measures he generally approved, and for whom lie had the highest respect. But he could not bring His mind to believe that this measure would be productive of tranquility to Ireland, or allay the animosities which ptevailed there. The Constitution of the country, he conceived, was essentially Protestant; but . f this measure were carried into effect it would cease to be so. The Archbishop concluded with moving, as an amendment, that the bill be read a second time this day six months. The Primate of Ireland said the bill removed all effi- cient securities, and would not make friends of those for whose good it was intended. The Bishop of Oxford supported the bill. The Rev. Prelate said, I think it convenient to grant concession, f. ir I hold it to be a just proposition that whatever action is not sinful may be granted upon the principle of ex- Pe'ri " e Bishop of Salisbury expressed his continued and decided opposition to the measure. His Lordship at the same time stated his desire to support His Majesty s Mi- nister if lie could, and expressed the griat pain lvluch he experenccd in differing from them, as he felt in consci- tr. ee bound to do, upon this question. The Earl of Winchilsea said it was evident by the nunibfi of petitions, that the measure was a most odious one in the eves of the public. Lord Somers maintained that the removal of the Ca- tholic- dis b lities would deprive the Protestants of nothing, and would do nothing to injure their religion. The Earl of Harewood opposed the bill. The Marquis of Lansdowne contended that a power had arisen in Ireland, which could not be put down but bv concession. The Catholics possessed political power ; and it was the object of the bill to bring that power within one that was regular and salutary— the Protestant power, and thereby produce tranquillity. The Bishop of London opposed the bill; as did also the Marquis of Salisbury. Viscount Wicklow spoke in support of the measure; and the Earl of Enniskillen against it. Calls for an adjournment then took place, and their Lordships adjourned at one o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS. WEDNESDAY, April 1— At four o'clock, there being only fifteen Members present, the Speaker ad- journed until to- morrow. THURSDAY, April 2 Mr. Stanley moved, " that leave be given to amend the laws by which leasing powers arc given to Bishops and other Ecclesiastical Cor- porations in Ireland"— Leave given. The Chancellor of the Exchequer obtained leave to bring in a Bill to carry into cff'ect a convention between his Majesty and his Catholic Majesty for the settlement of British and Spanish Claims. The report of the Committee of Supply haying been brought up, the estimates were severally moved and agreed to— Adjourned. London, FRIDAY, APRIL 3. WINDSOR, Wednesday.— At 12o'clockfo- day, the following distinguished personages arrived, in their separate carriages, at Windsor :— the Marquis of Ayles- bury, Earl of Winchilsea, Lord Rolle, and Lord Bexley. At half- past 12 o'clock they proceeded to the Castle, and, it is said, presented a petition to his Majesty, by whom they were graciously received, and each had a private audience of the King; after which they partook of some refreshment provided on the occasion, and at half- past four o'clock left the Castle, on their return to town. Letters from Windsor stale that Sir R. Birnie, attended by some of the principal officers of Bow- street arrived at Windsor Wednesday morning, and that the 2 i battalion of the Third Regiment of Guards, now stitioned in Windsor, were put under marching orders, but d: d not leave the barracks. It is said that these precautions were adopted on ac- count of an expectation that a procession of carriages and pedestrians was intended to proceed to Windsor with petitit n; to the King. No such procession, however, took place. It is said that the Quarter's Revenue to the 5th of April will not be so favourable as the correspond- ing quarter of last year. There is a diminution, it is added, both in the Customs and tile Excise. An address to his Majesty, in favour of Ca- tholic Emancipation, has been signed by the Mayor of Bristol, and lies for signature in that city. An anti- Catholic meeting was held at Cam- bridge on Tuesday, at which it was agreed that a petition against concession should be presented to his Majesty by the Duke of Cumberland. Extract of a letter from Dublin:—" The friends of Mr. O'Connell are very active in following up with becoming spirit their determination in support of that gentleman's claim on the gratitude of tile country. Mr. Lawless has not been forgotten, anil a marked anxi ty among the people has been manifested to include tlia gentleman in the present generous effort for Mr. O'Connell." ' I he French papers of Monday contain nothing; but uninteresting debates on petitions from individuals, some of which dictate to the Chamber and the Ministers the line of policy which France is to adopt in the present critical situation of European affairs. The latest news received from I he seat of war has been through the Berlin papers of the 23d nit. which state that there had been several affairs of posts and re- connaissances, in which the Russians claim the advan- tage. It is assefted in one of the German papers, that the Sultan is not disposed to accede to the proposal of M Jaubert on the subject of Greece ; but an opinion is expressed, at the same time, that if the Allied Powers act decisively in fixing the limits of Greece, and recognising its independence, the Sultan will not venture to resist their decision. GREECE.— A Decree lias been issued hy the President of Greece, by which it is divided into Thirteen Departments, of which the Morea includes seven, and the Islands, which now form part of the territory of the Re- public, six. The departments of the Morea form an extent of territory of 8,439 geographical square miles ( lid to a degree). Their population is at the utmost 300,001) souls; but it is probable that, as soon as peace and a settled Government have exercised their beneficial influence in these countries, the population, partly by natural increase and partly bv immigration, may be augmented in two years to BOO,( 100 or 700,000 souls. In the flourishing times of Greece this country contained no fewer than 205 towns, and about 2,200,000 inhabitants. The six insular departments contain a territory of 1,330 square miles, with 1011,000 inhabitants. Thus the whole thirteen departments contain 7,773 square miles, and 40( 5,000 inhabitants. Accounts from Greece say that the general state of the country is improving. Morea is free from Turks. The French arc quartered at Patras, Modon, and Navarino. They are heartily tired of their expedition, and the Greeks are sick of them. They do not agree at all. Patras has already 15,000 inhabitants from the Ionian Islands and from all parts of Greece. It it is said the French troops are going into Rumelia. Lord Coch- rane has sittled his accounts with the Government, and will return immediately to France. Brussels Papers of the 1st instant have ar- rived. They contain intelligence from Constantinople to the end of February, which neither alludes to military nor to diplomatic operations but only states what measures were adopted for securing the subsistence of the Capital. Amongst these an order issued under Selim III., had bieti enforced, to compel the Greek Clergy to reside in their ri s. iective dio/ es.- s, and numbers of Jews who had settled in Constantinople and could not ( tea satisfactory account of their mode of living, had been sent away, to diminish the number of mouths to feed. ROME, March 17.— IF. is now reported fo be probable that the election to the Papal Chair will fall on Cardinal Castiglione. Though of course nothing positive can be affirmed beforehand on this point, yet this report seem s to merit some attention. BERLIN, Match. 20.— It is reported hero that their Majesties, the Emperor and Empress of Russia, will come here during the summer;' the Empress to go to Pyrmont, the Emperor to accompany his august Con- sort hither. Our Funds arc still high. Letters from Jersey contain accounts of the capture of several English vessels employed in the oyster fishery in that neighbourhood, by French armed cutters, in consequence of the former having dredged for oysters too near the French shore. It is intended to oispalcli a Commissioner to the Island of Ascension, to ascertain its utility as a set- tlement. Country dances are quite la mode at present in Paris; we may therefore expect that in duo course these good old fashioned dances will be revived among the haut ton in England. It appears by accounts from the manufactur- ing districts in France, that the distress there is much greater than that which is felt ill the manufacturing places in England. CAUTION.— On Saturday last a boy, in Hi3 employ of Mr. J. Hayne, of Dorchester, was sent tip to the top of the house to procure some gunpowder; on coining down stairs, he stopped in the sitting room, as he said, to poke the fire, and whilst in the act of so doing, some of the powder fell from the drawer upon some live coals, by which the whole contents of the drawer, about four pounds, exploded. The boy was found on the floor in a shocking state, all the hair bting burnt off' his head, anu his face dreadfully scotched, lie is now, however, recovering. We understand that it is the intention of ( he Government, after the passing of tiie Catholic Bill, to bring forward a measure to compel half- pay officers, and other State pensioners, to reside in England, or to be subjected to a heavy tax. It is well known that a great number of these persons a'e now resident in France, and other j^ arts of the Continent, where they spend the money given them by the nation to the injury of their own country and to the benefit of foreigners— M. Herald. Mr. Buckingham's Lectures.— The following observations on the lectures lately delivered at Bristol by Mr. Buckingham, appear in the Bristol Journal of Satur- day:—" Mr. B. rebutted and defeated with considerable tact many of the arguments which have, from time to time, been brought forward by the advocates of the East India Company's monopoly. But the most powerful of those arguments, or at least, that whicli we believe has always been considered as the most powerful, Mr. Buck- ingham, we think, entirely failed in answering. It is maintained on the part of the Company, that if the trade to the East Indies should be thrown open, it would lead to the inevitable separation of those possessions from the mother country, as in tiie case of America. The force of this argument has been admitted on all hands, and it was not denied by Mr. B.; but he attempted to shew, that so far from this separation being an injury to England, it would rather prove a great benefit. He maintained, arguing from the relative situations, natural productions, manufactures, & c. of England and India, that the latter could never become a rival to us, as is at present tiie case with America ( which, by the bye, he considers, and perhaps he is light, as much more Beneficial to England as a friend than as a colony), but must, on the other hand, be dependant upon us for many of the necessary articles of consumption, manufacture, & c. not supplied by its own resources or industry. The applause of the major part of his hearers rewarded Mr. Buckingham for this very specious reasoning, but we fear his hearers forgot what Air. B. certainly did not remember to point out to them, viz. the manifest danger, in case of a separation, that America would supersede us in the East India market. The important question— could any mems be proposed to secure to ourselves the trade with India, in case of its asserting its own independence ?— still remains to be answered." Mr. Buckingham has announced his intention td commence on Monday next, at the City of London tavern, a course of lectures on the past and present state of the Eastern World. It is stated that 15.000 tons of British ship- ping are returning from the Mauritius without freight. SHEPTON MALLET.— This town and neigh- bourhood are about to experience the serious incon veniences which necessarily aiise from the sudden dis- charge of a large number of operatives from their ac- customed employ. In addition to 200 who were lately discharged from one silk factory at Kilverstreet, not less than 400 others were also thrown out of work, on Satur- day se'nnight, at the great silk and crape manufactory at Darshill; and it is currently reported that l-> 0 persons are in daily expectation of being discharged from another silk manufactory in the neighbourhood. VACCINATION.— At the annual ve3try meet- ing at Ilminster last week, an order was made that the inhabitants of the town and parish should be sillowpd the benefit of vaccination on application to a resident medical man, at the expense of tile parish, at any time previous to the 1st of May next, and no longer; and it was also resolved, that the parochial surgeon should not inoculate for the 6mall- pox, which has lately been introduced into the town, occasioning the loss of many lives, and con- siderable alarm to the inhabitants. The measure adopted by the vestry, it is hoped, will have a preventive effect, and check the furtherprogress of this malignant pestilence An extraordinary operation in lithotomy was performed last week by Mr. Lawrence on a very fat man, a butcher, who died the day after the operation. The stone in shape greatly resembled a large lemon, rather flattened oil the side on which it had rested in the blad- der; at one end it had a projecting point, similar in size and appearance to what is sometimes found at the ex- tremity of a lemon, but which projection was afterwards broken off in being handed through the theatre. Mea- suring the long circumference, it was exactly eight inclics and a half, and the shortest six inches. After the pro- jection was broken off, and without the small pieces that were afterwards taken out of the bladder, it weighed 4 ounces 7 drachms; and it exhibited marks of having been adherent to the bladder. TEETH TRANSPLANTED.— A young man in Congleton having suffered much from a carious tooth, and being unwilling to loose it, determined, in case of its extraction becoming ultimately necessary, to have another substituted in its stead. His brother, who had a supernumerary one, voluntarily offered to accommo- date him with it, if he would submit to the removal of the carious one. Having consented to this, both parties waited upon a medical gentleman residing not 100 miles from the post office, who accordingly extracted the cari- ous tooth, and transferred the sound tooth of his brother to its place, which latter operation was performed with comparatively little pain. The transplanted tooth has since become firmly fixed in its new socket, and answers every purpose of articulation and mastication, equally well with the natural one. For the first few weeks it was tied to the adjoining tooth by means of silk, until the gums had sufficiently adhered to it.— Chester Courant The following tragical event happened lately at Horn, in Austria. A butcher, having a large sum of money about his person, arrived at an inn, near Horn. The company he met there appeared to him very unfit to to trust himself amongst with his money— and lie begged the landlord to give him a bed- room on the upper floor. The landlord inquired after his motives, and the butcher acknowledged that he had a great deal of cash about him, T'ne landlord then offered him an inner apartment, be- hind his own, and instantly showed it to the butcher, who approving of the same, the landlord left him there. In the meanwhile the butcher missed his large dog, a circumstance which renewed his suspicion, and he im- mediately went down into the yard to search for his faithful companion. After a deal of trouble he discovered his dog in a cellar, where lie was locked up, and suc- ceeded in liberating him. Relying on this trusty animal, he resolved not to go t » bed for some time. In the mean time the landlord's son returned from a journey, and being fatigued, and somewhat intoxicated, he went to the well- known chamber, and, without any knowledge of what had happened, he laid down on the bed prepared for the stranger. It was now midnight, and the sleepy butcher found himself under the necessity of seeking his resting place. He went up stairs, and, peeping through the door, which was on a jar, he perceived the landlord throwing a thick cloak over the bed, and striking some heavy blows at a man groaning beneath the cloak. He recoiled and shrieked with horror. The landlord turned round, and was thund r- struck on perceiving the butcher. In his despair, he assailed him ; but the dog seized the wretch, and pinned him to the ground. The alarm was given, and the landlord found that he had killed his own son. He hastened that very same night to surrender to the Judge, as the murderer of his own son. FOSSIL TURTLE.— The remains of a sea- turtle have lately been discovered, and are now in the possession of Mr. Deck, of Cambridge. It is embedded in a mass of septaria, weighing upwards of 150 pounds, with two fine specimens of fossil wood; and was obtained in digging for cement stone, about five miles from Har- wich, in three fathoms water, where, as a mass of stone, it had been used as a stcpping- block. SCIATICA.— Oil of turpentine has been em- ployed lately in France in the treatment of sciatica with great benefit to the patient. SLUGS.— The most destructive pest of the garden, during the tender growth of seedlings, is the greyish white slug; it is an almost infallible trap for these depredators, to make small thimble holes, about an inch in depth, near tiie plants attacked ; into these holes the slugs are certain to retreat during the day, where they may be destroyed, by sprinkling a little quicklime into the holes. The commune of Bezas Bajou ( France), in tiie arrondissement of Mirande, has been filled with con- sternation by a terrible event. A young girl named Frances Teuque, has poisoned her father, her mother, one brother, and three sisters, tdl of whom are dead, with the exception of the young brother, who is not ex- pected to be saved. The crime is attributed to covetuus- ness. Frances had a lover, who is said to have induced Iter to commit this crime. The girl is now in prison, as well as the individual who procured the drugs. Her lover has hitherto escaped the search of the gendarmes. This occurrence has made so strong an impression on the inhabitants of Mirande, that, exclusive of the poisoned individuals, two others have died. Ancient Coffins discovered at Sherborne.— A few days since, as some workmen were excavating a cellar, under part of the mansion of the Right Hon. Lord Sher- borne, at Sherborne, in Gloucestershire, they discovered four ancient stone coffins of immense weight. Three of them were without covers, and one was covered with a lid about three- fourths of its length, with a star engraved on the part over the breast. The heads were almost per fect, but there were no inscriptions to record the names and rank of the deceased. Mr. Walter Tonkin, a respectable farmer of the parish of Budock, Cornwall, was removing a calf from one of his cows on Saturday last; the animal be- came enraged and ran furiously after linn, when, in turning to drive it off, it gored him with one of its horns, which entered his cheek and came out at the top of the head, causing instant death. CHILD STEALING.— A woman, giving her name Mary Ann Rand, was committed on Saturday to Portsmouth gaol, for taking away a female child, two vears and a half old, the daughter of Mr. Thos. Tizzard. The child was sent to play in the yard in front of the house, Friday morning, from which she was shortly after missed. The woman was apprehended, and being asked what she intended to have done with the child, she said she was going to sell her tor 8/. 10jt. to Dr.. . She wishes it to be believed that she is deranged. A young farmer named Hayes was executed at Limerick on Monday, having been convicted at the assizes of the murder of his wife. The crime was perpe- trated under circumstances of great aggravation. Great surprise is beginning to lie felt at no tidings having as yet arrived of the place of", retreat of the fugitive rogue Stephenson. The lirst step towards the art of speaking per- suasively is that of reasoning accurately. Lord Redesdale and Lord Kenyon yesterday entered a protest on the Lords' Journals, condemning the haste with which the second reading of the Catholic Relief Bill was urged, after the presentation of the Bill — it being presented to the House on Tuesday, and the second reading named for Thursday. Lords Malmes- bury and Mansfield have also protested against it. The Pallas, 42, Captain Fitzclarence, is to proceed to India with General the Earl of Dalhousie, who is appointed to succeed Lord Combermere as Com mander- in- Chief of the forces. SMYRNA.— It is rumoured that ( he Russians intend to order their ships of war to cruise off tha ports of the Island of Candia. TAUNTON ASSIZES.— On Saturday evening the Judges arrived at Taunton, and opened the commis- • sion for holding the assizes. - On Sunday their Lordships attended divine service, aud on Monday morning the business of the assizes commenced in both Courts.— Sen- tence of death was passed on Mary Jane Hawker, for robbing a dwelling- house; on John Durbin, for stealing a gold ring ; and on Thos. Dyer, for stealing a fat ox Mark Philips, Thos. West and Simon Stickler, for fowl stealing; and H. Shirkey, for a theft, were sentenced to 7 years transportation. A requisition, signed by 123 merchants, tradets, and other inhabitants of Bristol, has been sent to John Cave, Esq. Mayor of that city, requesting him to call a meeting of the inhabitants, for the purpose of taking into consideration the important subject of extend- ing the commercial relations of this country with the East Indies, China, and other countries to the cast* a. d of the Cape of Good Hope.— The Mayor has in conse- quence appointed a meeting to be held at the Guildhall, Bristol, on Wednesday the 15th instant. The inhabitants of Bristol intend to mark their approbation of the conduct of Sir C. Wetherell in Parliament, by some public demonstration of respect when he arrives in that city to discharge his duties as Recorder at the approaching sessions. Bristol- Gaol Delivery is fixed far Saturday the 4th of April, Hop DUTY.— Petitions are in course of sig- nature iri West Kent, praying for tiie postponement of payment of . the hop duty from May to November next. MALT DUTY.— A public meeting was held yesterday at Maidstone, and a petition to the Legislature to take off or lower the malt duty, which tax presses so heavily upon the labouring classes, unanimously agreed to. The comic and musical strength of the Covent Garden Fund Festival, on Friday, April 10, promises to be superior to any former meeting, Matthews, after an absence of three years, will enliven the scene with his unrivalled powers, in addition to several eminent musical gentlemen who intend to honour the board by their exertions; and Miss Hughes will also sing from the ladies' gallery. His Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence litis authorised the stewards to announce his intention of taking the Chair on the occasion. On Monday evening the Bachelors' annual fete took place at the assembly rooms, B. itli. It was at- tended by upwards of 550 persons of rank and fashion. Tha rooms were lighted in a very brilliant manner; and the dresses of the ladies were of the most splendid de- scription., Mr. Reilly provided the banquet, with his accustomed liberality and taste; ar. d the Stewards re- ceived the warmest acknowledgments from the company for their polite assiduities. A volume of poems by the King of Bavaria has just been published at Munich, the profits of which are to be given to an Institution devoted to the Blind. Mr. Sharpe, the proprietor of the Anniver- sary, has announced a new periodical at Midsummer next, on the same plan. A new poem by Mr. Southey is on the eve of publication entitled the Pilgrim of Compostella: the story is said to be founded on all old Spanish legend. To assist the distressed weavers, a number of ladies of Lyme and the neighbourhood have sent to London for a supply of Spitalfield manufactured silk. If this example were generally followed through the country, the distress would be alleviated; and by tiie public becoming acquainted with the superior quality of this silk over either French or Italian, the relief would probably be permanent. ' SILKS.— A further reduction of from 6d. to Is. per lb. h; s taken place on raw and thrown silks, and fiom the many failures occurring in all the silk districts, n.) increase of demand is anticipated. It is a singular fact, that yesterday morning ( Thursday), when the ground was covered with snow, mackarel were crying in the streets. A melancholy instance of burying indivi- duals alive has occurred at Winterthur, in the Canton of Zurich. A man fell sick of a nervous fever, and, being supposed to be dead, was buried on the third day. During the night after the interment the watchman heard some low groans coming from the burial- ground; he immediately informed the clergyman of the place, who ordered the grave to be opened, when the corpse was found turned upside down, with marks on the hands, indicating violent bodily efforts to open the coffin, though the unfortunate person who had been buried alive was now really dead. A frightful occurrence has happened at Nu- remburg. . The menagerie of Van Dinter was stopping at the Post- office, and the keeper was occupied in cleans- ing the lion's cage, when by some accident the grating was opened, and the lion found himself at liberty. In an instant he attacked the keeper, and, commencing at the abdomen, tore the skin from his body, pulling it over the whole of his face towards the scalp, and then left the mangled body lying prostrate. He next jumped on a saddled post- horse, keeping hold of the saddle with one of his fore paws. The horse fell instantly to the ground. Some Soldiers and peasants approached as near as their fears would permit them, but no one dared to meddle with the lion. At that moment the proprietor of the Post- office appeared at the window, and killed the beast by a single shot. His Imperial Highness Arch- duke Rainer, passing in his carriage, ordered the promp- test assistance to be given to the unfortunate man, whose recovery is mucii doubted ; but the Archduke has taken care that his family shall be provided for. A young gentleman, who was residing for his first term at Worcester college, Oxford, wasgunfortu- nately drowned, on Saturday last, by the upseting of his skiff*, whilst entering Radley Lock. BURNING of YORK MINSTER.— The trial of Jonathan Martin, for setting this fabric on fire, took place at York assizes on Tuesday ; and after a long and minute investigation of the circumstances attending the conflagration, and the state of the prisoner's mind, Mr. Baron Hullock charged the Jury. His Lordship said, there were two questions for their consideration. The first was, whether the prisoner had committed the act of setting fire to the Minster, and upon that question there could be no doubt, after the evidence which had been adduced. The second question was, whether, at the time when he committed the act, he was of sane mind, and capable of distinguishing right from wrong. It would be for them to take into consideration the evidence which hud been given on both sides, and then to say whether they thought that, at the time in question, the prisoner was sufficiently sane as to make him, in the eye of the law, accountable for his actions. The learned judge then recapitulated the evidence at length. The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty, on the ground of insanity— The effect of this verdict is, to place the prisoner at the disposal of the Ring, who is authorised by the statutes, " to give such order for the safe custody of such person, in such place, and in such manner, as to his Majesty shall seem tit."

CARRINGTON, Vicar of Berkeley, one of his Majesty's Deputy Lieutenants, & c. for Lhe County of Gloucester. Respected Friends,— As a small tribute of gratitude to the inventor of Carrington's Life Pills, and for the be- nefit of my fellow mortals, I am induced to declare that I have found very great benefit in taking. them. For upwards of twenty- five years 1 have been so afflicted with Rheumarism as occasionally to lose the use of my limbs ; nothing has ever relieved me in the astonishing manner that these Pills have, and though I am now sixty- three years of age, yet one Pill at night carries off'any attack ; my wife has experienced equal benefit from them.

[ 324 In no one branch of Science is there a more decided advance towards perfection, than in Vegetable Chemistry, and of the many inestimable discoveries of the present day, we believe there is none which surpasses the condensed preparation called Sulphate of Quinine, which, as a Tonic, Dr. Johnson observes, " must sboitly supersede ail others," Many gratifying instances, of important benefit, derived from the short use only of HUGHES's QUININE PILLS, in consumptive affec- tions of every stage, and extreme general debility, are now too well attested to admit of any doubt. We feel, therefore, sincere pleasure in directing the attention of Invalids to this important combination of Vegetable Pro- perties. We would add, that the discovery of this inva- luable Specific affords yet another proof, if' more were wanting,' of the inexhaustible resources of the Vegetable Kingdom, and would operate, we should trust, to the encouragement of additional exertion alikfein the field of nature by the Botanist, and in the Laboratory ( if Medical Science by the Chemist. " [ Oti- i'J Dobell and Brown, for 200?. a side.— firticlos of agreement for a new match between the above parties were last night drawn up and signed at Dobell s, the Mack Bull, Stnithfield, for 20( V. a side, even.

When Dr. James's Powders and Daffy's Elixir were first introduced, the inventors, as also the medicines, were abused and scoffed at. However, time, in its patient progress, did ample justice to both, and proved the_ futility of prejudice, when competed with practical wisdom. We have been credibly informed that a medicine, called the " CORDIAL BALM OF Zura," discovered and prepared by Dr. LAMERT, has been generally approved of, and recommended in all severe attacks of rheumatism and gout, [ 5W72 THE LITERARY GAZETTE. AN Improvement long aimed at 1 y the Literary Gazette has at length been accomplished, and that Journal has throughout the Quarter just finished ( with No. 630, March 2!!), given a complete view of ti e progress of the literature and science of Great Britain, as developed by the Proceedings of ALL the National and Leading Institutions devoted to their cultivation. It was not till the Literary Gazelte had, in consequence of its independent character, and circulation in every direction at. home and abroad, acquired much public influence, and by considerable perseverance in seeking to establish the necessary intercourse, that this important object was attained— the result of which is, that it legularly diffuses throughout the civilized world a knowledge of eve'v tiling interesting which occurs in the following Bodies, by Weekly Reports of their Transactions— viz.

For several Coach Horse Masters it lias removed Cougli3 and Colds from Hoises, and restored their appetites, so that they have stood work and done well after having been before almost useless; indeed many declare it is now almost a person's own fault if he loses any Cattle in any of the said diseases.

FRIDAY, April 3.— The place allotted to strangers, and the enclosures round the throne; were crowded to ezeess, the latter with ladies of rank, and Members of that House of Commons. The Order of the Day being read for resuming the debhte on 2d reading of the Catholic Relief Bill, The Archbishop of York said lie bad hitherto abstained from giving his opinion on the proposed measures, one way or the other; but now that he knew their extent, a: n! was convinced that they contained no securities what- ever for the established Church, he felt himself bound to opoose them. ( Hear, hear.) Ho had carefully and anxiously examined this bill, with the hope of discover- ing •• some security, or ground, upon which he might give has vote in favour of the relief of his fellow Catholic sub- jects ; but after examination, be felt, that as a Protestant Fishop, he could not give the measure his support. The misnamed securities were not at all, in his opinion, Sufficient for the protection of the Church in. Ireland. I1" dwelt particularly on the Chinch establishment of That country, for it would be idle to say that the Church of England had any thing to fear from the encroachments Roman Catholics. In Ireland, the struggle would be I, itween numbers on the one hand, and legal lights on the other ; and he really looked with fear to the result; and the more particularly, when lie saw that agitation and disaffection attained their ends. ( Hear). Such success would only stimulate to fresh efforts and further demands, until a complete triumph was attained—( Hear, hear.) in Ins opinion there was nothing to be feared from the • Cacholic Aristocracy, nor indeed, had he any apprehen- sion from the Catholics of England : but in Ireland the case was different; there the influence of the priests pre- dominated over the people ; they were desirous of getting back that property of which they once had possession; a lid lie had no doubt but their present success would en- conrage them to make increased demands. ' The Bishop of Durkum regretted to be obliged to oppose- bis Majesty's Ministers, but an imperative sense of duty compelled him to oppose the present Bill. This Has a subject which he had investigated with great atten- tion! ; he might say, that for the last year it was scarcely absent from his thoughts ; but he could not persuade himself that the proposed concession could be granted with safety to the State. He maintained that the admis- sion of Catholics to power was contrary to the letter as well as the spirit of the Constitution. The Duke of Sussex contended that his late Majesty's sentiments on this question did not go so far as to mean a vermanent exclusion of Catholics; only, that in the then existing temper of society and state of circumstances, it was not expedient to relax the penal code. His Royal Highness maintained that the present measure was not a violation of the Constitution of 1088, in which his Royal Highness saw nothing to prevent Catholics from becoming Members of the Legislature, nor from being admitted into other civil offices. The Lord Chancellor said lie had daily considered the tenor of the oath which he had taken when appointed to his office, and the result, was his firm conviction, that it was his bounden duty to recommend the present measure to the Throne as the best mode to promote the stability of the empire. His Lordship took an elaborate review of the Constitution of 1688, and maintained that the pre- sent measure was in no respect a violation of it, as it only required that the King and Queen should be Pro- testants, and not that Catholics should be excluded from political power; for Roman Catholics sat in both Houses of Parliament for a century after the Revolution— no other oaths being required of them than the oaths of supremacy, which Catholics did not decline to take in . those days. The Earl of Falmouth said that in his opinion, the Bill was not one calculated to tranquillize Ireland. If the measure was an experimental one, it would be dangerous in the extreme. Lord Goderich was anxious to declare that in his con- science he believed the measure was indispensally neces- sary for the safety and tranquility of Ireland. Burl Mansfield said, that lie should vote for the amendment, if it was only for the purpose of obtaining time to give further consideration to this subject. After some observations from the Marquis of Anglesey, a motion for adjournment was made and discussed The question of adjournment until one o'clock to- morrow ( this day), was then carried, and the House ad- journed at a quarter past two o'clock this morning. HOUSE OF COMMONS. FRIDAY, April 3 The Swan River Settlement Re- gulation Bill was read a first time, and ordered for a second reading on Monday. In a Committee of Supply, various estimates were moved and agreed to,— Adjourned. SATURDAY. APRIL 4. The debate on the 2d reading of the Catholic Emancipation Bill was resumed last night, and at two o'clock this morning the further consideration of the Bill was postponed till one o'clock this day. Letters from Buenos Ayres of the 20th of December, announce the departures of numerous priva- teers intended to cruise against the Spanish flag on the roast of Galicia, the entrance of the straits of Gibraltar, and in the neighborhood of the Canaries: most of them arc quick sailers, and well manned. It is in contemplation to equip a steam vessel to complete a passage to Calcutta in 70 days, under the management of a very deserving young officer of the Company's Marine— Morning Paper. The distress of the Spitalfields weavers re- mains undiminished, and " the funds at the disposal of the Committee are utterly inadequate to meet the nume- rous claims upon them." The sum of 542/. 2s. 6d lias been subscribed at Bath, for the relief of the Spitalfields weavers. The ball at the Guildhall on Thursday, for the benefit of the Spanish and Italian Refugees, was well intended, upwards of 2,000 tickets having been sold. Sir George Smart presided, and the performances gave great satisfaction. A tradesman, recently declared a bankrupt, was brought before Mr. Alderman Scholey, yesterday, upon a warrant, charging him with knowingly uttering a bill of exchange for 201l. l& r. 10d., bearing a counterfeit acceptance, with intent to defraud Steward Marjoribanks, Esq., and Michael Fowler. Between 80 and .90 Counsel appeared in Taunton assizes court on the first day. In the case of Lord Plymouth against the Rev, II. dc Crespigny, which was to have come on at the Leicester assizes, for sending a threatening letter to extort money, the bail has been enlarged till next assizes. A few days since, was sold at Garraway's, the estate of the late Lord Rivers, in Gloucestershire, comprising the manors of Sudley and Wincombe, near Cheltenham, containing about 2800 acres, divided into several farms, and let at a rent of 284Sold in one lot for 74,800/. At Norfolk assizes on Thursday John Wood and Thomas Butler were found guilty of sheep- stealing ; ami having made great resistance when apprehended, stabbing one of the captors in several places and attempt- ing to choke ham, Mr- Baron Vaughan passed the awful sentence of death on both prisoners, and left them no hope of a mitigation to their doom. aw . -' —— -- - PRICE OK STOCKS. | .

At the annual cucumber feast held at the Globe Inn, in this city, on Tuesday se'nnight, the 1st prize was awarded to Lock, gardener to tile Bishop of Winchester; the 2d to Pullenger, Hardener to Ed. Knight, Esq. Chawton House; the 3d to Stanbrook, gardener to J. Waddington, Esq. Shawford. On Tuesday last was married at St. Maurice Church, in this city, by the Rev. Dr. Bailey, Harriet, fourth daughter of A. F. Nunez, Esq. of Basing Park, to the Rev- C. Lyne, curate of Westmeon.

On Monday last died, in Conduit- street, London, in the 41st year of his age, after a long illness, the Rev. Brownlow Poulter, Rector of Buriton, Hants, the eldest son of the Rev". Edmund Poulter, Prebendary of Winchester. On the 26th inst. died at Alton, Elizabeth, vounger daughter of the late Rev. Lancelot Docker, Vicar of Keevil, Wilts. At a court for the relief of Insolvent Debtors held at the Castle of Winchester, on Monday last, before Thomas Barton Bowen, Esq. one of his Majesty's Com- missioners, the following Insolvents were discharged, viz.

James Graham was remanded till the next circuit. On Monday an inquest was taken at the workhouse, Ringwood, by V. Baldwin, gent, coroner, on the body of an infant male child, about a month old. The infant was discovered alive early in the morning of that day, in a rush basket, deposited at the door of the residence of a lady of respectability ; but, from its having been exposed for hours to the night air, and destitute of nou- rishment, the means resorted to to preserve life were unavailing. Verdict, " Died from want of nutriment, and from exposure to the cold air of the night, occa- sioned by the wilful neglect and misconduct of some person or persons unknown." Southampton. SATURDAY, APRIL 4. A Roman Catholic chapel is now being built in Bugle- street, adjoining the house of the Rev. Mr. Watkins, the Catholic priest. On Sunday last a sermon was preached at Holy Rhood Church, by the Rev. Mr. Zillwood, chap- lain to the county bridewell, Winchester, for the benefit of the Religious Tract Society, recently established in this town ; when, after a most impressive discourse, a very liberal collection was made. BIRTH.— The lady of W. C. Thompson, Esq. of Bristol and Southampton, of a daughter. On Tuesday Mr. Bowen, commissioner for the relief of insolvent debtors, held a court in this town, when — Galpin, Wm. May, and Wm. Osman were dis- charged ; Joseph Redward was remanded for two months or until he paid 17/. the amount of the money in his pos- session when he went to gaol) into Court.— Thomas Butt, shoemaker, was opposed by Mr. R. Missing, on the part of Ed. Wilkins, a creditor, and was remanded for 14 months within the walls of the prison, for fraudulently destroying his accompt books, for giving a preference to his brother, and for making away with a quantity of shop goods. On Thursday, J. Brown, ( mate), and 3 of the men of the Eclipse, of Yarmouth, were brought be- fore the County Magistrates at the Guildhall, for having been taken in the act of conveying 90 tubs of foreign spi- rits. It appeared the spirits were in a boat found in the night time so close to the Eclipse as to cause suspicion of its having been towed by that vessel. They were re- manded till Monday. The seizure was made by Mr. Bennett, the chief officer of the Hurst station. On Monday Wm. Patterson, a gentlemanly- looking man, was charged before our mayor and magis- trates with having carried away a horse and gig which had been let to him for the day by Chinnock, the livery- stable keeper.

To the Editor of the Salisbury and Winchester Journal. LETTER OF CATHOLICUS. -—— And Pistol's cock is up And flashing- fire will follow. For oaths ate straws, men's faiths are wafer- cakes. King Henry 5, Act 2, Sc 1 & 3 SIR,— I have noticed with regret, in your last Journal, a violent and angry personal attack upon our venerable Diocesan, on the subject of his Lordship's able and un- answerable letters to bis Grace the Duke of Wellington, and bearing the signature of ' Cutholious.' The author candidly admits that he writes under highly excited and highly indignant" feelings. Some indulgence, therefore, may be claimed for him— an in- dulgence which the amiable and benevolent Prelate, who is the object of unmerited abuse, will, I am sure, be the first to extend. But. Sir, has not the semblance of in- dignation been sometimes assumed for the purpose of vilifying and misrepresenting an opponent? Or, has it in the instance before us, clothed itself in the garb of vague and inflated declamation for the purpose of recall- ing to our recollection the character of ancient Pistol, of Falstaff's loyal corps of volunteers, in the play ? Catholicus has endeavoured to produce an impression that the charges of a divided allegiance against his fellow Papists, and of Idolatry against his Church, were en- tirely new and originated with the Bishop of Salisbury. One or two observations only will be necessary to remove this impression, and to correct some of the mis- statements contained in his letter. In the first place, he has asserted what is not true in charging the Bishop " with denouncing Hainan Catholics" ill general, and '' his neighbour" who may happen to be of that persuasion, " as Traitors to their King and Country." His Lordship used no such words; his letters contained nothing personal; he argued on general principles only, and had a right in the way of argument to pursue principles to their consequences. He does indeed say, and I for one agree with him in thinking, that " as a measure merely of civil^ olity it would be " unjust to give the subjects of a foreign power, who are " only half subjects to the King, and therefore notour " fellow subjects, equal political privileges with their " Protestant fellow countrymen." But surely this is something very different from " denouncing them as " Traitors to their King and Country." The Bishop too had several very high authorities ( among others Lord Clarendon, Sir William Blackstone, and the late Lord Liverpool) for arguing as he argued. Black- stone's words are " The Romish Clergy, when they " take orders, renounce their allegiance to the Tem. " poral Sovereign, that being inconsistent with their " canonical obedience to the See of Rome." And Claren- don says, that " it is vain to legislate concerning the " Roman Catholic Laity, unless you bind that clergy: " for they turn things civil into spiritual at their plea- " sure, and holding in servitude the consciences, they do " therefore govern also the actions of the laity." I admit that the Bishop pointed at the Catholic Association in Ireland, and characterized it as " a lawless association," actuated by a " seditious and treasonable spirit." But was not that its true character ? Will any person in his senses attempt to deny that it was " a lawless Associa- tion," and that it was actuated by " a seditious and treasonable spirit ?" I think not, and I challenge even " the highly excited and highly indignant" feelings of Catholicus to the bold adventure of so audacious denial. With the respect to the idolatries and blasphemies of the Romish Church, was Catholicus aware, when he so fu- riously reviled the Bishop of Salisbury, that every Mem- ber of the Legislature has, in the presence of Almighty God, solemnly sworn or declared his full persuasion and belief that the worship of the host and the adoration of the Saints are superstitious and idolatrous ? Why then all this calumnious invective against a Prelate who is still faithful to the principles which he has sworn to maintain and defend ? faithful found Among the faithless Unshaken, unseduced, unterrified ! Catholicus next alludes to some conversation which he says he has the most unquestionable authority for stating took place between the Bishop and a Catholic Gentleman. Sir, I know the Bishop and Mrs. Burgess well; and I firmly believe that the expressions attributed to the Bishop never could have been used by him, because his Lordship has not among the Roman Catholics, any very near or dear friends, nor Mrs. Burgess any relations; though the latter may indeed have two or three friends who profess that faith. But even supposing the fact, as related by Catholicus, to be true to the extent stated ( which it is not), what would it prove ?— I answer in the words of Mr. Peel, who is probably of the very highest authority, at the present moment, in the opinion of Catholicus, and I claim for the Bishop the benefit of the sentiment contained in them ; " What would these per- " sonal observations prove? Why only this; that in lt thus sacrificing his peace and resigning his dearest con- " nexions he acted from a permanent and well considered " sense of public duty, by disregarding all personal attachments in pursuit of a great and important object." The last charge which Catholicus brings against the Bishop is that of " voluntarily descending from the high station on which he has been placed to attack by vto- " lence;" & c. & c. Here " the violence, the infuriated recommendations, the unwarrantable and unchristian u charges," and similar expressions may be taken as vox ct praeterea nihil;" and I am really quite at a loss to conceive how the Right Rev. Prelate descended from his high station by doing what he did. But, Sir, pity in truth it is, that Catholicus should have been so blinded by his " highly excited and highly indignant" feelings, as not to perceive the situation to which he has reduced himself. The Bishop had determined, with a manliness and consistency every way worthy of himself, to make a public and explicit declaration of his sentiments on a Question vitally affecting that Church and Protestant Form of Faith which he is bound to maintain and de- fend, even with the sacrifice of his life, if necessary. lie feared that he might not have an opportunity of express- ing his sentiments in his own proper place, as a Peer of Parliament; he therefore addressed a calm, dignified, able, and unanswerable Letter ( for such it lias been pronounced to be) to the highest and most influential of the King's Ministers; not perhaps without some little hope of inducing him to pause in the execution of his rash and fatal resolves. The Bishop had nothing to conceal, no sinister purpose to serve; he, therefore, openly affixed his name to the letter, and I happen to know that it was courteously received and acknowledged. How, on the contrary, has Catholicus acted ? With the expression of an indignation and excitement which he would fain have us suppose to be honest, he has united ( however inconsistently) the coolness of the prac- tised libeller, and with an affectation of superior senti- ment and a profusion of impassioned words he has con- descended to shelter himself under the shadow of a name, and must bear the imputation of being the secret Calum- niator of talents and virtues which he has not the gene- rosity to appreciate, at the same time that he has endea- voured thus covertly to vilify them. In conclusion, Catholicus will, I hope, take in good part a little advice, conveyed in the words of his own congenial Pistol, to whom I have before alluded in this letter. I would say to him, with all due gravity, " Abate thy rage, abate thy manly rage 1 " Abate thy rage, great Duke ! " Good Bawcock, ' bate thy rage ; use lenity, sweet chuck ! " Pauca 1 there's enough !" I remain, Sir, your humble Servant, A PROTESTANT. To the Editor of the Salisbury and Winchester Journal. Silt,— In your highly respectable Journal of March 30, appeared a letter signed Catholicus, purporting to be a reply to the two letters of the amiable and learned Bishop of Salisbury to the Duke of Wellington, in re- ference to the " Atrocious Bill" now pending in Parlia- ment. Execrated ' as this Bill is from one end of England to the other, as a measure conceived in fear, nurtured by duplicity and treachery, and fraught in its consequences, ( should it ever arrive at maturity, which God in Heaven forbid) with the most pernicious effects to the Church and Throne of England, it has already, however, prema- turely, begun to shew itself in the exulting and insulting language even of English Papists. In the composition of low bred and vulgar impertinence, above alluded to, as void of argument as it is replete with insolence, Catholicus " slanderously reports" the Bishop of Salisbury to have denounced Papists as " Traitors to their King and Coun- try," and consequently declares him to be guilty of the violation of the Ninth Commandment. That the Bishop has denounced Papists as traitors to their King and country, is a gratuitous and nefarious falsehood, as will clearly appear to any one who will take the trouble ( and he will be amply repaid the trouble) of reading those two valuable and important documents, which, not- withstanding the learned labours of the erudite Catholicus, perhaps I should say Catholicus and Co. remain unim- peached because unimpeachable. But the Bishop has said, and well said, and truly said, that it would be unjust to give " to the subjects of a " foreign power, i. e. Papists, who are only half subjects " of the King, and therefore not our fellow subjects, " equal political privileges with their fellow country- " men." Was this the first time that Catholicus had heard of Papists bearing only a half allegiance to their King ? Has he never heard of King James I. answer to an Irish Deputation, You that are but half subjects, " should have but half privileges. You have but one " eye. to me one way, and to the Pope another way The Pope is your Father in spirityalibus, tir. il I in tempore- " libus only, and so have your bodies turned one -. cay and " your souls drawn another WAY. Strive henceforth to be " good subjects, that you may have cor unum et viam " unam, and THEN I shall respect you all alike, but " your Irish ( qy. also English) Priests teach you such " grounds of doctrine as yon cannot follow them with a " safe conscience, hit yon must cast off your loyalty to your King?" Has Catholicus ever read Blackstone's Commentaries ? There lie will find that if Papists " once could be brought to renounce the supremacy of " the Pope, they might quietly enjoy their seven Sacra- " ments, their purgatory and auricular confession, their u worship of relics and images, nay even their transubstan- " tiation. But while they acknowledge a foreign power " superior to the sovereignty if the kingdom, they can- " rot complain of the laws of that kingdom which will " not treat them upon the footing of good. 1 jects" I add only one other no mean authority tor charging Catholieus and all - other P;: pists with a divided allegiance, in the words of Lord Liverpool, Spoken V • 17 1825 " My Lords, the ditterence is this-, i - stared in a u moment— the Protcstant gives an entire uiic„...:. r!' to " his Sovereign, the Roman Catholic a divided one. The " service of the former is complete, that of the latter " only qualified, and unless it can be proved to me that the man who works for half a day is entitled to as " much wages as the man who works the whole day, or " in other words that the half is equal to the whole, I " cannot admit that the Roman Catholic, whose allegiance " is divided between a temporal and a spiritual master, is " entitled to the enjoyment of the same civil rights '' and privileges as a Protestant, whose allegiance is " undivided, and who acknowledges but one ruler." The Bishop then was not the first to assert the undeni- able incontrovertable truth of the only half allegiance of Papists to their King; but in placing it before the Prime Minister of Great Britain, and ill warning him of the sin, and consequent danger to the country, of recognizing and encouraging v. hal LORD WILLIAM RUSSEL. when on the scaffold, called " a bloody and idolatrous religion," he has again shewn himself an UNCOMPROMISING, CONSISTENT, PROTESTANT BISHOP. His long life of piety and benevolence attract universal admiration, and his continued and eminently successful exertions in the cause of Christianity in general, and of the Church of England in particular, against the detestable doc- trines of Popery and Unitarianism, have raised him to a pinnacle of glory, far beyond the reach of demolition or diminution, from the malicious falsehoods and insi- dious calumnies of even " more able" slanderers than Catholicus and Co. As to the conversation said to have passed between the Bishop and " a Catholic Gentleman"! 1 it is so utterly improbable that the Bishop should have given a compte rendu of his family and friends to the " Catholic Gentle- man"!! ( I am indeed credibly informed that it is in its totality untrue) that it can be attributed only to a pious fraud on the part of the " Catholic Gentleman"!! One word more, and I have done— Catholicus talks of being charged with " sentiments and doctrines which " from our souls we ( Papists) abhor." Now, on Holy Thursday in every year, the Pope, the Vicar of Christ, the Spiritual King of Catholicus and all Papists, curses ex cathedra in his most solemn and Popish manner all heretics and Protestants of every denomination whatever, and ( merciful God !) decrees them to the pains of eternal damnation. This inhuman, unchristian, and uncharita- ble " sentiment and doctrine," Catholicus, if he pos- sesses the feelings of a man, must from his soul abhor : as a true Papist, a member of that Church whose " tender mercies arc cruel," is he not bound with the rest of the people to give his assent to this inhuman, unchristian, and uncharitable curse, ( though it should include his wife and children,) by a hearty Amen ? " Wherefore, come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean " thing; and I will receive you, and will be a father " unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty." A PROTESTANT. TO CATHOLICUS. SIR,— You state yourself to be highly excited, and highly indignant, and are therefore entitled to the pri- vileges of an angry man. Due allowance shall be made, for the warmth of your feelings, and the vehemence of your language. If your indignation were to be directed against any one, it should be pointed against Dr. Johnson, to whose questionable authority you triumphantly refer. You well know that you do not worship GOD, under the form of a consecrated wafer. You should attend to that article of the Decalogue, which you rather unaptly quote. The Bishop has neither called you traitors, nor held you up to public reprobation. As candidates for political Power, in a free country, you must expect your principles to be rigorously scrutinised; and you have no great right to complain, even if that scrutiny should turn on points, to which a reference may be unpleasant. Suffer us to enjoy this privilege now : no one can tell how soon it may be dangerous. You admit the charge of divided allegiance, by speak- ing of the spiritual obedience you owe to the Pope.— You may perhaps need to be told, that this darling attri- bute of the Papacy is not sanctioned by Scripture, or by the opinions anil practice of the early Christians. It arose from the voluntary, though not general precedence, yielded in the third Century to the Bishops of Rome, as holding the Metropolitan See- The title of Universal Bishop was then coveted, and first obtained by Boniface III. from Phocas, the tyrant and Usurper, in the 7th Century. During the succeeding dark ages, the pre- rogatives supposed to be attached to this title, were ex- tended and established, by means which you cannot wish me to describe. As long, however, as the Popes were able to inforce their tyrannical decrees, they claimed and exercised this Supremacy, not only in Spiritual but in Temporal affairs. Fortunately for you, as well as for us, this usurpation was circumscribed by the efforts of the great Reformers; and no upright man, who knows the: misery it has entailed on the Christian world, can wish to see it even partially restored. The Bishop has adopted the language of our Laws, and of his Oath, as a Peer, in speaking of your adora- tion of the Eucharist. According to his principles, as a Protestant, he could use no term more appropriate. You are perhaps not aware, that this is still less warranted by the sentiments and practice of antiquity, than the claim to Supremacy. The opinion held by your Church, con- cerning the Real Presence, was first promulgated in the 9th Century ; was long and strenuously opposed, by many able and learned men ; and not finally established, till the fourth Lateran Council, in the beginning of the 13th Century. Your Church has seldom gained much by discussion, when it had no other resources than reason and argument. Without meaning any offence to your feelings, permit me to add, that you are yourself not fitted for controversy. If, however, you will engage in the war of words, let me above all tilings advise you, to master your subject, and govern your temper. X. Z. At an Ordination held in the Chapel in the Palace, on Sunday the 29th ult., the Lord Bishop of Salisbury ordained the following persons : DEACONS. Benjamin Morland, B. A. Trinity College, Dublin. Frederick Edward Arney, B. A. Queen's College, Oxford. PRIESTS. Charles Desborough Stewart, B. A. University College, Oxford. Francis Henchman Buckerfield, B. A. Magdalen Hall, Oxford. Robert David Cartwright. B. A. Queen's College, Oxford. John Henry Arnold Walsh, M. A. Baliol College, Oxford. Augustus James Brine, B. A. Exeter College, Oxford. The election of a coroner for this county in the room of the late Mr. Whitmarsh, is to take place in Devizes on Monday the 13th instant. The sum of 50/. has lately been paid to the Treasurer of the Salisbury Infirmary by the Executrix of the late Mrs. Susannah Budden, of Donhead St. Mary, ] being the amount of a legacy bequeathed by that lady to i this institution. The executrix, Mrs. Anne Rogers, has | been so liberal as not to deduct the legacy duty. THE FINE ARTS.— An account of a picture, I painted by the immortal Raphael, and valued at several thousand pounds, appeared in a recent Salisbury Journal, and other papers ; cut out, and surreptitiously removed from its frame in the Louvre, and brought to this country ; a close copy having been substituted in lieu of the estimable original Another picture of similar di- mensions, and probably by the same great master, was purchased at Genoa, and brought to Salisbury, not very long since, by a gentleman of fortune and graphic taste in Dorsetshire, and is now in the possession of an amateur near this city. The subject of the painting is Christ crowned with thorns, and mocked by the Jews. The painting was much obscured by accumulated dirt, and many a stratum super strata of varnishes, or rather tar- nishes ; but is now, by a peculiar process, and unre- mitted application, divested of its manifold incumbent resinous incrustations, and restored to a state as pure as when first removed from the painter's easel; which at- tempt towards restoration appeared not only difficult, but utterly hopeless to its original possessor. The design and drawing are admirably correct, the expression striking, the tone of coloring adapted to the solemnity of the subject; and is, agreeably to the genuine productions of Raphael, the more admired, the more it is inspected; " decks repetita placebit;" the genius and hand of Raphael are discernible in various parts of the figures, particularly in the articular parts; and it may be sub- joined " par excellence," as the crowning perfection of all, that the well- known portrait of Raphael himself is introduced over the head of the Saviour in this matchless production. Our very excellent and favourite comedian, Mr. J. Penson, takes his benefit at our theatre on Friday, with a strong bill of fare, in which will be represented a grand nautical melo drama, got up in a style unpara- lleled on our boards.
