They art- dated Constantinople, the 8th inst.— No accounts had reached Constantinople at that period, of the further advance of the Russians. The Sultan had not quitted the Capital, and the appearance of consternation on the part of the people, and ot' an incipient anxiety for peace on that of the Government, continued the same as before. An express arrived at the North and South Ameri- can Coffee House soon after noon on Saturday, with the following interesting information :— Don. A. de Mello, aid- de- camp of Count Villa Flor, Governor of Tcrceira, arrived yesterday at Exeter, whence he proceeded with dispatchesto the Marquis de Palmella, announcing the complete defeat of the expedition of Don Miguel agiust that island. The invading force lost 1- 200 men in killed, wounded, and prisoners; and among' the killed was the General second in com- mand.— The attempt on the island was made on the 11th instant, and a considerable body of the Miguelite troops were permitted to land. They were attached by the troops of the garrison, while the guns of. the batteries were directed against the division of the expeditionary army which was coming lo their assist- ance. The wind at this time was unfavourable, and coiiftisioii occurred among; the boats, and the fire of the batteries sunk several of ( hem, and did much damage to the remainder. The discomfiture was complete; and the efforts of the survivors were soon directed to save themselves, instead of aiding' their companions on the shore. In the mean lime the body that landed was suffering more severely under the attacks of the troops of Count Villa Flor, and finally the whole who escaped the fire of the Loyalists laid down their arms. The number of prisoners taken is great. Five hundred have already joined the stand- ard of the young Queen. Most of them were for- merly soldiers of the Oporto division. The- loss of the expedition is estimated at 1200 oil shore, and 1300 drowned ; the bcacli was covered with dead bodies, most of them being washed up by the sea, and the wind setting strongly in shore. Count Villa Flor estimates, in a proclamation published after the action, the loss of the enemy at more than half of the whole expeditionary force, including five or six of the principal officers. Amoiig the Loyalists there were three pfficers and nine soldiers killed, and tvvcnU live wnlmifeil. . MR. HUSKISSON IN MANCHESTER. them for punishment. Such we conceive to be the state of the Ministry with respect to Ireland: they have done that which then, at least, cannot recall; and the events arising- feoiij their deed, in necessary and immediate, consequence, proclaim aloud the evil they have done. Would to Heaven that we could prognosticate a speedy extrication from this calami- tous condition : But we 6ee no help at hand ; and if the public difficulties of the empire at large . should increase, we forebode an augmentation of our domes- tic'trmibles as their concomitant. Vpoil'whotft eati Hut Ministry noyj call for aidi There is now, as the Ennii. ii I i;\ t partly remarks, no Government party in Ireland. The Protestants, betrayed as they have been— aud exposed, as they appear to be, to the machinations of Popish hostility— mtist, it is true, stand up in defence of their lives and properties, as long as they are permitted to enjoy them ; but that zeal in the service of the Government which so fre- quently preserved the kingdom, is not to be calculated on, until a change in the national policy has been effected. The Papists are discontented ; they are insurrectionary at this moment; they have in view ulterior objects, inconsistent with the permanency of British connexion, which they will labour to effect, and which the present Cabinet will find it equally hazardous to concede or Withhold. What is to be done? The boasted PANACEA liiis fililed. A change of councils is absolutely required. SALOP INFIRMARY. THE HARVEST.— We regret to state that the we'a' tlier, since our last, has been of the same unsettled description that it has been our duty to notice in previous publications. Saturday and yesterday were, however, dry days ; and we learn that, with a praise- worthy anxiety on the part of the agriculturists, not- withstanding the casual state of the atmosphere, a large portion of the wheat crop has been secured, though in a damp ami soft state, in the intervals of dry weather that have occurred in the fa& t threef weeks.— The fall of rain in the last weeli wa^ veify great in Montgomeryshire ; and on Saturday last the Severn was swollen to a degree not witnessed srt this season for a long series of years, and some corn in loft' grounds was swept away by the flood. : r Committed to our CountyGaol, Eduard Nieholls, charged with breaking open the dwelling house of Evan Jones, and stealing five sovereigns, a silver watch, and other property, belonging to the said Evan Jones ; and George Alhharl, charged with having maliciously cut and wounded John Foulkes, with a sickle, at Albrightlee, in the parish of St. Alkmond. A reprieve has been received for Johv Noderi, capitally convictcd at our late Assizes, and left for execution. NURSE.

SEPTEMBER 1 ST, 182!). % X) z Salopian ' journal. [ From the Manchester, Chronicle.] Mr. Hnskisson, in the course of his Northern Expedition, has visited this town, and made some display of his oratorical powers in our Exchange- Toom. That Mr. Huskissun is a very able and intelli- gent character, we have never doubted or disputed for a moment. Perhaps bis knowledge of the princi- ples of commerce, and his acquaintance with the nature and extent of commercial transactions, are not surpassed by those of any individual in the king- dom,— cet'tainly no one connected with the present Government is equal to him in the discussion of these important subjects. We willingly pay the full tribute of our admiration to his ingenuity and parts, but at the same time we have uniformly looked upon him as an eccentric ge- nius— one, not sufficiently directed by a due regard to existing circumstances, and too much inclined to neglect the useful admonitions of experience. It is, in truth, a very melancholy con- sideration, but nothing is more true, than that highly- talented men, however honest and disinterested they may be, are the very persons whose influence is often most fatal to the true interests of their Country. The reason is obvious : — they are not content to travel in the beaten road of politics j they must needs strike out some new path for themselves, and by the gener- ous temerity of their enterprising conduct they are perpetually involved in a labyrinth of error. Mr. Huskisson is exactly a man of this description— pro- found, sagacious, and honourable as he most undoubt- edly is, his systems are still ruinous in their end. Abilities more moderate than he is gifted with, obe- dient to the suggestions of prudence, would have rendered him, in his political sphere, infinitely more useful. As it is, what has he effected ? What has his luminous and comprehensive mind achieved to- wards the improvement of the physical condition of his countrymen ? Literally nothing— simply because, contemning the experience of past times, he has hitherto attempted to introduce the doubtful expedi- ents, engendered in bis own prolific imagination, in its stead. We admire him as a man ; but we are at a loss to recognise his merits as a practical politician. We begin indeed to suspect that he himself now entertains some distrust with regard to the principles which he has long advocated with such uncommon zeal and confidence. Perhaps, however, the com- paratively chill reception he has met with on our Exchange may have served to mitigate his tone, and to render him more guarded in the expression of his; sentiments. There is nothing very worthy of com- ment in what he said, though we should be little surprised if some of our contemporaries who are partial to his views should dilate upon it with the highest satisfaction. He professes to be in pursuit of information, and we have 110 doubt he wjlj have every facility afforded him in order to obtain it. We only hope that, he will turn it to a good account, and that when lie is fully convinced of the error of his opinions, he will make it his first business, when Parliament shall again assemble, to rise up in his place and publicly retract them. STATE OF IRELAND. [ From the Star of Brunswick The general Assizes, which are now drawing to a close, have developed, with no equivocal signs, the portentous condition to which a long series of impolicy in former Cabinets, anil the fatuitous cowardice of the present, have reduced this unhappy country. Bad as the situation of Ireland was previous to. the enactment of what has been ironically called the " Relief" Bill, it was remediable, had the prOper means been adopted. But statesmen in their panic, and quacks in their ignorance, mistook the prognosis of her disease and, in applying a remedy, have exhibited a medicine which has inflamed and irritated the ancient maladies which were apparent, and drawn others to ( he surface which were before concealed. We venture to say, that except in the actual strife of insurrection, Ireland never manifested a state of society so formidable as the present; and that no insurrection, however deep and deadly, was preceded by symptoms of such acerbity and malevolence. The details elicited from the trials in the North, and in the South, and in several of the Midland Counties are fraught with intelligence of the designs of the disaffected. They develope, in the most striking manner, what, it is the Roman Catholic population meant when they clamoured for Emancipation : they show what our liberal Ministry, and its liberal and enlightened supporters, mistook for Emancipation, is not the thing required— not that which can or will satisfy the claimants; and that either a full and forcible resistance must now be given to the insatiable demands of the discontented, or a further arid rapid relinquishment offered of all that is sacred and valu- able in our institutions, until there remains no more to be yielded, and the ambition of Popery has been glutted with the sacrifice of the British connection itself. We are told that the effect of man's first and most presumptuous sin was, that his eyes were opened, and he saw that he was naked, May we, without levity, imagine a similar result to the daring and presump- tuous follies of mo. lern enlightenment) We may then Con. e. ve our Ministers full of the imaginary b ' i. efits, wh. ch a Protestant empire was to derive from a political alliance with Popery, and of the blessings ensured to our national Church, by an admixture of idolatry in her legislative Government. The deed is done. The intoxication of enthusiasm and popular commotion has subsided: their eyes— if t. h( y be not judicially blinded-— and their ears— if they be not hermetically sealed— are opened, and lo! they per- ceive they are naked : that they have committed the national sin— and that the very objects of their mis WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 2, 1829.

On Thursday, August 27th, at Stafford, in the house of his kind and anxious friend, Dr. Somerville, Robert Henry Crockett, Esq. only child of the Rev. lioberi Crockett, Rector of Nailstone and Normanton, Leices- tershire, at the early age of 25 years. It pleased Providence he should endure a lingering and seven* illness of more than leu months' duration, which he bore with pious resignation, unbending fortitude, and almbst super- human patience ; having never permit- ted a single murmur or complaint to escape his pallid lips during the whole period of his distressful trial He was a youth of the greatest promise, being naturally endowed with a fine ' understanding, a teua. cions memory, and first- rate talents, which were carefully cultivated from the earliest dawn of his existence, and matured at Winchester and Oxford ; hence he became a distinguished scholar, a refined gentleman, and a most amiable friend and companion ; and no young man ever sunk into the grave more universally lamented, respected, and beloved Nor had lie neglecied the all- important subject of religion during his literary pursuits; having made himseli intimately acquainted with the contents of the Sacred Volume, he placed his whole trust and confidence iu the merits and mediation of his Saviour and Redeemer, and thus did he exhibit to his weeping relatives and friends the model of a true Christian, both in faith and practice. By constant prayer and meditation, and by repeated celebration of the sacramental rite, he endeavoured to make his calling and eleciion sure : and hence, when he was informed there was no hope of his recovery, and felt assured that death was daily approaching, he awaiied that awful event, unshaken, tranquil, resigned, and ever joyful, being full of humble hope and chastened confidence.— This sketch of him " who was lovely and pleasant in his life, and in his death happy," is drawn not only in justice to his merits aud to honour his name, but as an incentive to others to imitate so amiable and praiseworthy an example.

Thomas Hodges and family, E. Wheeler, Esq. Mrs. Wheeler and family, & c. & c. Perhaps it is not generally known, even amongst sportsmen, that the grouse and the black cock, a. black game, are inveterate enemies; and whenever they come in contact arc sure to wage war against each other; the black cock being much the most powerful bird of the two,. always comes oft' victorious, while the grouse « being game to Ihe bottom," never yields to his antagonist till death compels him. Many gentlemen, especially, we believe, in North Wales, are now encouraging the breed of the black cock as much as possible, but they are surely not aware that, when the black cock is introduced on tbe hills where grouse are plentiful, every year they will find the latter birds rapidly diminishing, till they become quite scarce, or even wholly extinct. Some instances we have beard of, especially in parts of Yorkshire, and other counties, as well as in Scotland, that where these fine birds have been bred on the same ground, the black cock has almost exterminated tbe grouse. Now ( hose gentlemen who enjoy the manly sport of grous- ing, and prefer these birds to the others, will do well in not allowing the black cock lo increase much on their grousing grounds ; if they do, tbey may rely on it that in a few years they will have real cause to re- gret it. FLINTSHIRE GREAT SESSION.— These Assizes commenced on Thursday last, before Mr. Justice Jervis. His Lordship was escorted to church on Friday morning, where a very impressive seripdh was preached by the Rev. C. B. Clongh. Aftcr tfie usual formalities had been gone through, his Lordship briefly charged the Grand Jury : he complimented them on the state of the calendar, there being only two prisoners for trial. The first was Thomas Davies, charged with administering a quantity of poisonous liquid to one Elizabeth Lewis ; about this case he was spared the necessity of making any remark, the prosecutrix not appearing against the prisoner. The other was William Robart, who was charged with assaulting Mary Powell, with intent to murder her. As the evidence would be brought regularly before them, there was no necessity for his making any observations on the case.— After the Grand Jury were sworn, Mr. William Jones, of St. Asaph, author of several Welsh publications, and Honorary Member of the Reyal Cambrian Institution, was admitted an Attorney of the Court of Great Session for the coun- ties of Chester and Flint.— A true bill having been found against William Robart, he wiis tried, con TEETH.

The claims preferred by the subordinates in that office are of that extensive, nay, extravagant descrip- tion, that I take tbe earliest opportunity of impressing upon you the necessity of directing your attention to the subject, rendered now more important, in conse quence of certain non- resident proprietors in Merion cthshire having tacitly submitted to the assumed rights of the Crown, thereby affording these rapacious claimants a pretext for extending their pretensions to lands which ever have been considered private pro- P'rty- 1 call upon you to resist these claims.

The inferior qualities of new and old wheat on hand have also reirograded about 2s., per quarter, and the market is not brisk. Barley remains without any variation at present from the quotation of last market day. The Oat trade wears rather a better appearance, but not sufficiently so as to enable us at present to quote any variation in the price. Beans and peas remain as on last market day, and in no other article of grain can we quote any alteration. [ FROM THB COURIER.] Our supply of new Wheat this morning was indeed immense, and although some of it was rather rou « h, owing to the weather, upon the whole it was capital of its kind, and prices were considerably affected, tbe best samples not being able to obtain within from 6s. to 8s. per quarter of last Monday's prices, with a con- siderable quantity unsold. Foreign Wheat was ex- tremely dull sale, but without any variation in price. Bailey, owing to the small arrival, fully supporied our last quotation. Beans and Peas were 2s. per quarter cheaper, a large quantity of fine new Peas having ap- peared on the stands. Oats were Is. per quarter Sower, the supply being large, and the demand having slackened at this season of the year. In other articles there is no alteration.

Lincolnshire Agricultural Society. -• The anniversary dinner of this Society, on Wed- nesday, » vas attended by 91 members. After the cloth had been removed, & c. the health of Colonel Sibthorpe was given with the warmest applause, in honours. Colonel Sibthorpe replied at considerable length: he expressed tbe gratification he experienced on meeting bis friends on such occasions, though it w- as witb mingled feelings, affected by the state of the cuuntr'y.^ jiid the.. prospects of agriculture ; he had at one time'thoijght of abstaining from the indulgence of the day—- partly from indisposition, and partly from mental anxiety;, but he obeyed a sense of duty iti overcoming stich considerations. ( In mentioning other feelings which had had some weight on bis mind, the Worthy Colpnel received the heartiest cheers' of the company.) He then spoke of the state of tbe country, and- liie blow which had been given to the constitution : the spirit of calunmv and misrepresent- ation of the press, which pursued the consistent few who scorned to follow in the wake of an unprincipled administration. ( Loud applause.) The members oI tire Commons seemed to have put aside all decent regard to the opinions and to tlie interests of their constituents ; turning round with men in power, and voting one way to- day and another to- morrow. He alluded to the deserted benches of the House on the important motion of the member for Cornwall, artd the complete nothingness which had characterised the proceedings of the Commons, after the fatal ovef- throw which had been given to the Protestant bul- warks of tbe constitution : consisting in passing a few of the most insignificant bills, and neglecting all considerations of vital interest to the empire. But he should return to the combat and the struggle; and with tbe blessing of God he would continue to advo- cate, with all tlie power of which he was capable, those, sound principles of policy on which the pro- sperity jof the ' country was based, and on which it must he perpetuated, if we would hope to sustain our greatness^ as a'Commanding empire. The Colonel now alluded ( o the objects of " the meeting, which, he said, were not supported as they ought to be by the members of the county and the aristocracy. He pointed outt. be disastrous effects of the alteration of the currency on the agricultural interest, and the apathy of jhfjgreat land- owners on the subject, when under the consideration of parliament. He did not despair of living to see men convinced of tbe ruinous system which we bad adopted, and of abler and bonester men succeeding the present Cabinet.— Tbe Colonel then proposed the health of the Chairman, in cheers; who ' returned thanks. The health of Mr. Calcraft was next drank, with applause. . Mr. Calcraft, after dulv acknowledging the honour done him, proceeded to a review of the late parlia- mentary Session : asserting that his Majesty's ministers, not content with their neglect of the agricultural interest of the country, had wantonly thrown every obstacle in their power in the way of all improvement, lie particularised 4he wcol question; and how it, was abandoned in tbe House of Lords. He asked bow it coi^ ld be exp'ectetfthc farmers could bear the changes' fron^ wheat,; it 80s. and wool at 35s. to wool at 9d. per lb', and grain'at* tlie price of the present market; wheii their rents had been pitched on the former, ami remained, with sonje partial and paltry exceptions, at nearly'the same'- fcthndard. He noticed the instances of some few returns ; but said it formed no criterion of the merits of the case. Colouel Sibthorp had noticed the delusion of such a plan of abatement, than whom the country had not a more constant, and uncompromising friend, always at his post; and per- forming the duties of the members for the city and for the county, and worth them all put together, or a hundred such. ( Loud applause.) The speaker then alluded to the act for regulating the corn aver- ages; which only promoted forgery and fraud ; there Could be no adequate prevention of false returns, unless it- was the interest of the parties to detect: as it was, the same corn might lie sold seven or eight times in one day : he instanced a late conspired defeat of the law, at the time w hen corn kept rising for a number of successive weeks. If the ministers understood the true interests of the revenue, they might turn it to a more equitable account on this subject The passing events would soon open the eyes of the world to the merits of tbe question.— ( l. oud applause.) Colonel Sibthorp expressed his regret at not being able to attend the meeting at Grantham; he was th' u aCtivcly opposing bis Majesty's ministers ou that ungrateful regulation of the army which so uncere- moniously sent a number of deserving officers in the militia to the right about. He entirely concurred in the opinion expressed of the delusive practice of publishing certain returns on rent days; the true question was how tbe rent stood as to the capability of the tenant to pay. He censured the absentee landlord : and said that money, like manure, should be spread, and spread at home. ( Applause.) His own custom in letting land was to instruct his agent to let it as he would take it himself; with no other guide than a fair remunerating profit. ( Loud cheers.) As his agent was present; he could speak to the same effect. The colonel concluded with saying that he had seen enough of the gaieties and follies of lite; and had now no higher wish than to spend his days among his tenantry and friends; and to do. tl| e most good in this honourable sphere of duty should be his present ambition and his future amusement.

P. was inducted a member. The Learned Gentleman delivered a suitable oration, and displayed an intimate acquaintance with the terms and tech- nicalities of the different trades. Amongst other things he advised his newly- acknowledged brethren to " Hammer the treaty of Limerick to pieces." It seems that, by returns made to the French Police, there are at this time nearly 36,000 English domiciled in France, and whose annual expenditure is calculated to amount to little short of £ 4,000,000 per annum. Now, taking the British subjects resident in France to amount to only as many as those that are dispersed over Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Italy, and other parts of Europe, and the expenditure of the latter to be tbe same, it follows that an income of between seven and eight millions a year is drawn from England, Scotland, and Ireland, tbe greater part of which would be expended at home, if the means of living at home would admit of it. Tbe amount, re- duce it how we will, is a frightful one, and sufficient of itself to account for some part of our present national embarrassments. It would not be too much to say that the public revenue loses, in direct and in- direct taxation, full one- half of the expenditure thus withdrawn from the country. Without this enormous draw back, the very increase which is annually taking place in ou* population, houses, & c. would necessarily show an increase in many heads of the public re- sources, which have hitherto exhibited scarcely any. It is no part of the business of a Government to tell its subjects where they shall live; but every Govern- ment has a Tight to say to its subjects—" While you draw your means of living from home, you must con- tribute your share towards the maintenance of the State which protects and insures to you your pro- perty/' Something like this, we are convinced, must LIFE INSURANCE OFFICES, J. ombard- Street Sr Spring Gardens.

Tbe agricultural interest is ill- represenied in Parliament, and the manufacturing still worse. The lords of the House of Commons are the men of office, the money changers, and a few lawyers, and other adventurers, and these have no interest in common with the agricultural population; and however some of them be interested in the general prosperity of manufactures, they have neither inter- est nor spuipathy wilh the manufacturers— a distinc- tion which the political economists have taught us to make, as, they have cruelly acted upon it. Unrepre- sented,, therefore, as the agricultural and manufac- turing interests virtually are, it behoves them to try whether public feeling may not be made tu act upon parliament, so as to extort that consideration for their sufferings which they cannot expect to obtain by any more direct means. And we sec no mode by wbicii this can be so effectually accomplished as a multipli- cation of meeting's like that at Lincoln."] STOURBRIDGE RACES. TUESDAY, AUGUST 25.

A Court Martial is now sitting, on board the Victory, at Portsmouth, to investigate charges made against Capt. Dickenson, of the Genoa, relative to his conduct at the Battle of Navarin :— The Court Martial origin- ated out of the following circumstances :— On Prince Lieven communicating to Sir E. Codrington the desire of the Emperor of Russia to bestow an order upon Capt. Dickenson for his behaviour in the action of Navarin, Sir Edward objected, 011 the ground that no such honours had been proffered to Captains Baynes and Campbell, with whom he was better satisfied than wilh Capt. Dickenson. Tbe latter officer, on hearing that opinion, thought it his duty to clear his conduct of the implied censure contained in the Admiral's answer, and for that purpose demanded to be tried by a Court Martial. The Admiralty prosecutes, and the charges arc grounded on a correspondence with Sir Edward Codrington. NORFOLK.— At these Assizes the interminable question of fixtures was brought before the Court. A pump was the article moved, which a succeeding tenant to the person who put it up had paid him for. The pump was fixed with a screw bolt and a nut. This, it was argued by the counsel for the plaintiff, proved it to belong to the freehold. The counsel on the other side said, if such was to be construed as part of the freehold, no picture or barometer could be re- moved by those who fixed them to the walls. Mr. Baron Garrow, in summing up, told the Jury he was clearly of opinion that tbe pump was a fixture, and belonged, as such, tp the landlord, and the plaintiff must therefore recover. Nor need tiie Jury be alarmed lest their pictures representing the battle of tbe Nile or of Waterloo, or the portrait of the greatest Captain of the age, which adorned their parlours or their draw nj- rooms, should be claimed by their land- . lords as their property, under the name of fixtures; nor were their barometers in more peril—( A laugh)— but if they erected a building on premises of which they were tenants, or put down a pump and fixed it to the walls of their houses, by means of screws and holdfasts, or erected a cider- mill on their premises for the purpose of pressing the juice from their apples for the manufacture of cider, they could not remove all or any of them 011 quitting tbe occupation of the premises, hut were bound to leave them for the land- lord. It w as of the greatest importance that the law on this subject should be understood by tenants.— The Jury found for the plaintiff for the value of the pump. The Rev. Dr. Bagot was consecrated Bishop of Oxford by the Archbishop of Canterbury on Sunday week. The ceremony took place in his Grace's private Chapel at the conclusion of the sermon after the morning service. The Bishops of London, Winchester, and Chester, assisted during the ceremony. This was the first English Bishop his Grace has consecrated since bis promotion to the province of Canterbury. HORSE- POWER.— We every day hear of steam- boats anil manufactories having engines of perhaps 20, 30, or 40 horse- power, but as there probably may be among our readers some who do not precisely com- prehend, what that power means, we beg leave to explain the subject, as it is now understood. The power of a horse is considered to be that which will elevate a weight of 33 000 pounds the height of one foot in a minute of time, equal to about 90 pounds, at the rate of four miles per hour. Another estimate reduces this to only 22.000 pounds raised one foot high In a minute, equivalent to 100 pounds two and a half miles per hour. This is a force greater than that exerted by a common cart- horse, w hich is not estimated at more than 7 § pound ; that is to say, that a horse harnessed to a cart, weighing with its load 40 cwt. or two tons, and drawing on a level road at the rate of four miles an hour, makes use of the same force as if bis traces, instead of being fastened to a cart, were passed over a pulley, and lifted per pendicularly a weight of 7fi pounds. The expression of the power of the steam- engine in horses powers is consequently more practical than scientific. It was introduced when steam- engines first began to super- sede horse- mills, when the manufacturer naturally inquired, how many horses a steam- engine would' dispense with. ANECDOTE OF BURNS.— Being in church one Sunday, and having some difficulty in procuring a seat, a young lady who perceived him kindly made way for hint in her pew. The text was upon tbe terrors of the Gospel, as denounced against sinners, to prove which the preacher referred to several passages of Scripture, to all of which the lady, seemed very attentive, but somewhat agitated. Burns, 011 perceiving this, wrote with a pencil 011 the blank leaf ' of her Bible the following lines; — " Fair maid, you need not take llie hint, Nor idle lexts pursue ; ' Twas only sinufi s thai lie meant— Not angels such lis von *' BANKRUPTS, AUG 27.— Thomas Jenkins, of Mid. dleton- slreet, Montpelier square, Brouiplon, stone, mason.— John llolmaii Revill, of Ratliboae. place, builder.— William Caiman, of Northampton, shoe- uiauufacturer.— Robert Smith, of Preston aud Man; ehester, muslin. manufacturer.— John llolliwell and George llighfield, of Liverpool, merchants.— Henry Holt, of Liverpool, ship- ow ner.

Hill's Lane, in-. the township of Bilston, 011 view of the body of Mr. Wm. Edwards ( son of the late Mr. Edwards, bookseller and stationer, Oswestry), who met his death by alighting from the Greyhound coach near Wolverhampton, 011 his way to London, in consequence of tbe axletree breaking. A verdict of accidental death w as return- ed. The coachman and other passengers escaped with little injury; An inquisition was recently taken before H. Smith, I'.. 11 coroner, iu Wolverhampton, on tbe body of Smiii- 1 Leake, a young man who came from Elles- mere, in this county, and for the last fortnigHt had been employed in the Bough Hills Colliery : on the Saturday afternoon, be with others had ascended the shaft of a pit, and just as they had got to the top, Ircfbre the waggon was drawn over the inouth of tlt « shaft, he jumped out of the skip In which they all stood, and alighted upon tbe waggon; but the wind being very boisterous he fell backwards down the shaft, which is between 70 and SO yards deep, and was kilted. Adrianople covers an extent of eight and a half miles in circumference. It is situated 011 the banks of the Mttrissa, w hich empties itself into tbe Arcliipel igo, at the distance of only 137 miles from Constantinople. It is better circumstanced as a mart for extensive commercial transactions than as a military fort. At ( he ilereford Assizes, the principal and most interesting cause was that of Doe (' cm. William Meifler v. Bright.— This was one of those causes in which parties believing, or pretending to believe that they have a claim to some large property, endeavour to wrest it from the lawful proprietor. The estates now sought to be recovered arc situate in Pembroke- shire ; hut, after the case had occupied the attention of the Court two days, the plaintiff elected to be nnn- suited— it being evident that he had not a shadow of a claim to the property in question. EXTENSIVE FAILURE.— Private letters from Edin- burgh bring us intelligence of the failure of John Rennie, Esq. of Phantassie, the most extensive anil enterprising agriculturist in Scotland. His engage- ments are stated by some to amount to £ 100,000 ; by others they are variously estimated, but by none at less than fio0,000. These are, however, only little better than conjecture, and we trust that, although the engagements be very large tbe affairs are not. so bad as represented, for we are credibly informed, that notices have been sent for several gentlemen request- ing their attendance at the meeting of creditors, to whom Mr. Rennie does not owe one farthing. Judging from the sort of persons to whom a large cattle and grain dealer must be indebted, we cannot but foresee that the most disastrous conscquences will ensue from this failure, and we find that it has produced in Scot- land, what the papers, not very properly, call " a lively sensation."-- Manchester Times. CAUTION.— On the 27th ult. a chaise from Wat- ling Street, when near Emstrey Gate, drove against a valuable horse that was leading the team belonging to Dr. Smith, of Upton Magna, inflicting a wound 011 the thigh of tli^ animal nine inchcs deep and eight inches wide.— The waggoner was 011 his proper side, but the chaise was- going at a fast pace down the hill. Inquisitions have beeu recently taken before John Wollaslon, Esq. one of the Coroners for this county— At the Bog Mines, on a child scalded to death ; on Mr. John Brittairr, of Lawton, who died in a fit of apoplexy, in his fold ; at Walcot, on a Welsh harvest- man, who died almost suddenly, supposed to be from an extremely violent inflammation of the bowels; at Long- meadow End, on Thomas Davics, who, on Monday, the 24th ult. was getting stone in Oaker Quarry, when a part thereof fell in upon him and caused his death.— Verdicts accordingly. AN INTELLIGENT JURY. Thousands of our readers we have 110 doubt, have often remarked the awkward predicament of a jury, when unfortunately composed of men unable to dis- criminate the bearings of conflicting evidence pro- duced before them. The following is a very capital illustration, which occurred on the present cirouit, before the Lord Chief Barm. BEADSMORE r. RIOHARDSON. This was an action of trespass, brought by the plaintiff, Elizabeth Beadsmoro, a milliner and dress- maker, at Asliby de la Zouch, against tbe defendant, for breaking and entering her premises, and illegally seizing her goods. The whole question in the cause was, whether or not Ihe plaintiff had become bona fide purchaser of about £ 100 worth of the property of her brother, who had carried on the printing business, and become bankrupt ? The evidence on the one aide went to show that the sister had purchased this pro- perty at a sale of her brother's effects, and paid £ 40 in part payment, which slim she had borrowed for the occasion, and having taken a house for the purpose, she commenced carrying on tbe printing business in her own name. On the other hand evidence was called to show that this was all a concerted scheme between the bankrupt and bis sister to retain the property, and defraud the creditors. The CIIIEF BARON summed up, and the jury col- lected to deliberate. After a few minutes the second man of the jury, who appeared to have been charged with Ihe duty by the Foreman, said, " My Lord, we find that there was a fraud, but we think that she ought to be paid her forty pounds." Mr. DENMAX immediately caught at this.— Oil, yes; a verdict for the plaintiff— damages £ 40. Mr. CLARKE— A verdict for the plaintiff, indeed! — why they find that the plaintiff committed fraud. CHIEF BARON— Mr. Foreman, what is your ver- dict? SECOND JUROR— We foind— FOREMAN— Hush. ASSOCIATE— Gentlemen, what is your verdict? FOREMAN— IVhoy, she ought to be paid her £ 40. Mr. DENMAN— Oh, yes"; verdict for the plaintiff. CHIEF BARON— But do you find that there was a fraud ? SECOND JUROR— WC foind— FoaEMAN ( pushing him)— Be quiet, do. CHIEF BAR& N— if you are of opinion that the goods were really the property of the plaintiff, your verdict ought to be for the plaintiff. FOREMAN— We thinks she ought to have her £ 40. CHIEF BARON— But if you are of opinion, that they were the property of the buikrup', then you ought to find a verdict for the defendant. SECOND JUROR— We foind— CHIEF BARON— And you must leave Miss Beads- more to get her £ 40 the best way she can. FOREMAN— IVhoy to be sure there was a fraud. CHIEF BARON— Gentlemen you had better con- sider your verdict a little longer. Tbe Jury turned together for a moment, and then the Foreman delivered a verdict for the defendant! RIOTS AT BARNSLF. Y.— The Leeds Mercury of Saturday states that the weavers of Barnslcy have hr iken out into acts of riot and outrage, in conse- quence of an intended reduction of wages. A large meeting of the workmen took place on Thursday evening; great dissatisfaction w- as manifested ; and on the meeting being dissolved, a number of men formed themselves into bodies, by which the bouses of three manufacturers were assailed, and the library and furniture of one of them ( Mr. Jackson) burnt. The military and civil power fortunately arrived in sufficient time to prevent further mischief. No lives were lost, and it does not appear that any of the rioters were apprehended. I11 the course of tbe night, however, one of the most prominent speakers at the meeting was arrested, but afterwards bailed. The town remained much agitated during the whole of Friday, but up to seven o'clock that evening no further disturbance took place.

Inclined up the secluded Valley of the Rhyddol, which for the richness of its foliage, and the graceful meandering of its river, is scarcely rivalled High and abrupt hills form the wooded ravine, titronglu which the water, to the faticiful ear, roils with a sound of triumph over the masses of rock lhat seem vainly striving to oppose its progress. This concise description is applicable only to the upper part of the valley : about the centre it expands, and the river '" toes a more gentle course. On every hand its features are of the mttst pleasing character. Having journicd a sufficient distance, we angled downwards, aud succeeded in catching a handsome dish of trout. In the course of the morning a fish took off one of my artificial flics unfelt, and before the line was out of the water, seized another, with which tic was caught; and on landing him, both flics were in his mouth. A trout's taking a second fly immediately after being hooked by a first, proves some parts of his mouth are callous. Reader! deem not this fact a fiction. A similar instance once occurred to me in a lake. Yet, to show that Anglers, like Shots, can " draw the long bow,'' I present you with the following piscatory flight. « I was fishing," said a Cambrian Munchausen, " in a brook, with three flies to my line. Three " large trout rose at the same instant, alt of which I ,. < f booked; but their united strength and simulta- " neous struggles proved too much for my line, " which broke, anil away went the fish. About a , " quarter of a year afterwards, happening to angle " in the same stream, with " worm, I felt a glorious " bite; and striking, pulled, opt a fine trout, on " handling which I descried something like gut " hanging from his mouth to the, water: 011 drawing " this, lo! another trout appeared, and after him a " third! What were these, but, to my infinite satis- " faction, the three fish which, three mouths previ- " ously, 1 had hooked! for tlicy had my flies in their " ifiouths, which 1 soon disposed in my cane, putting " the fish in mv basket— three noble fellows! The gentry of Shropshire do merrily smite To see a goose and a belt the fish to beguile. When the pike suns himself and a frogoiug doth go The two incli'd Rook is heller 1 know Than the ord'uary snaring. But still | must cry ll'hev the Pike is at home mind the cookery .'" Admirable Barker ! Thy precept is worthy of being recorded, and who can complain of thy poetry ! So excellent is the rhyme of the last couplet, that it was doubtless imitated by the author of a poem styled " A Walk round the Walls of Chester," W ho sang— " Aud as you turn your head awry There you see the liifiriniuy/" ' I am not certain whether or not the alithbr of this musical couplet was a member of the medical pro- fession : if so he probably concluded that if a stiff neck should be the consequence of holding the head 111 so unusual a position, proper aid was at hand : He hud bill with his head awry, To uialk to the Infirmary! Being once ill North Wales, an ingenious friend anil lover of the Angle wrote me a humorous letter, in which the following passages occurred : " When in Scotland, how have I envied Sawney stepping from rock to rock with his uncouth angle md flies Y'our fish about towns are, like the ladies, shy, and must have a tempting bait: shell as gold or silver hackles ; or, like a salmon fly, scarltt and gold, a la militaire: well, God help them, and make them wiser! Would I were following you with the fishing basket ! Perhaps I could not trudge 011 so fast, but I should find the foot of some roaring cascade, with plenty of fishes, and could wait youf return." It was at the foot of such a " roaring cascade," that I to- day enjoyed some enviable diversion.— Standing behind a huge rock, I threw my line unper- coived by the shy fish, and with the little " Sally fly" pulled out a brace of handsome trout, after a stub- born contest. Methouglit of my friend, and his Waltonian description. Reverting to piscatory letters, a gentleman of tbe Principality, on a certain occasion, presented to the Ex- Chancellor Eldon, ( then 011 the Woolsack,) prime sttl. iion, in acknowledging the receipt of which the good- humoured Lawyer and Statesman remarked to this effect: " A portion of the public put me down as a bail Judge; but, be my legal demerits what they may, I am at least a good Judge of fish, and pronounce the salmun excellent.*' Its goodness, it appeared, did not admit " a doubt /'* While amongst the Cambrian wilds and rivers, some years ago amused a vacant hour by writing an epistle iu rhyme, a passage from which, relating to the favourite art, shall I be pardoned for intro- ducing ? which passage may be taken with my former attempted defence of angling. " In yonder mead where winds fair Dove^ s stream In serpent fof- tn, reflecting Phecbus' beam, The silent, nil- attentive Angler sltinds : His pliaiit rod he deXl'roitsly commands. I. o! on the current mimic insects play, Tempting, ' with lively show, the tinny prey. But mark ! a trout lias seized llie frfe'll'- wrought fly ; Ah, hapless victim ! quickly doOni'd lo die : Vainly thiin striv'wt the Contest to endure, The rod too faithful nnd the line secure!—. ( Plitiige follows plunge : now, every effort o'er, flis golden sides adorn the pebbled shore. Pence is the Angler's lot: no wish to swim On trcach'rous waves of pomp intrudes ou hint. All day in solitude he loves to roam, A'nd every humble lull affords a home. Blest Meditation all his hours employs ; Expectant Friendship waits him with her joys. 11 And who can say with false, nlfected moan, Tin1 Angler's bosom doth no feeling own ? Ab t ' lis not so. What rural pport is found TtuiI dffil* not to the prey a deadly wound ?

While all is green beneath aud bright ab6ve, And music swells from valley, hill, and grove? II ' Ti » long, my Friend, and weary days have past, Since we together trod the meadows last; Since happily, beneath enchanting skies. The brooks we sought, to tempt the speckled prize : O days, when Pleasure shone with vivid ray, When hearts were light, when every hour was May! III the afternoon joined a party at rook- shooting— a poor diversion, unless the birds be taken flying. Shooting at them setting is as dull an amusement as the worm and float system of angling. Rookeries, if permitted, extend rapidly. Once a colony is planted, population advances in a ratio sufficient to alarm a modern political economist. A black settlement was lately destroyed at Nanteos at the public expense. It is still a question whether this « black game" is so prejudicial to agriculture as it is supposed ; for it is observable that the craws of the young birds are generally replete with ewry description of small reptile, and consequently are they not beneficial?" On the other hand, the older birds, are observed to damage shooting corn. As Sir Roger de Coverley remarked, on being appealed to in a dispute, " much, probably, " may be said on both sides." [ TO BE CONTINUED.] Londoniana.— Morning— Evening. The sun certainly does not seem to rise in London as it does in the country, unless it be at Midsummer, when he appears about the time the kitchen fires are extinguishing, and the late- sitting inhabitants are betaking themselves to rest. Light breaks, indeed, over the enormous mass of houses, hut there is no brilliant Aurora, no dewy freshness aliout it. The day comes heavily « in clouds," the stin is shorn of his beams, and all the glories of a country niorn are wanting. The watchmen of late years have omitted to cry the stateof the weather, and. the d( t*£- curtnineil l> ed- room tells no tale of the rising sun : j l i*, artificial life, the time- piece alone regulating the getting up of the Londoner, and his descent to th^ breakfast- table, and morning newspaper. The earliest cry is that of the miserable chimney- sweeper, shivering along the chill streets, with an empty stomach, in search of his gloomy employment. No noise « f carriages assails the ear, for they are among the luxuries of the later day. The milk- woman passes with her shrill cry and her sturdy step, her overflowing pails, and her Welsh countenance, bespeaking her peculiar caste, sad the great hardiness of her constitution. Her temperance, and entire difference of physiognomy and accent, 1 irevent her being mistaken for a sister of the Emerald Isle, whose professional avocations, too, are generally of another order; the Irish being for the most part barrow or washer- women. The domestic servants, half asleep, may be heard at the late hour of eight o'clock, even in summer, descending the stairs of the dwelling- house, to clean the rooms and kindle the fires: else all within doors is wrapped iu curtained stillness. 1 In the streets, denuded of a busy population, a lofty laden cart may be seen, dragging along its heavy burthen of garden- produce to some of the great markets. Here and there, a straggling, stag- gering drunkard takes his tortuous course, to the bed, if be possesses one, on which his fevered brow may repose in almost apoplectic sleep. The journeyman mechanic, yawning, proceeds to his place of daily labour; and the muck- covered scavenged is cleaning away the pitchy filth of tbe. preceding day from the almost deserted pavement. Here and there, the slip- shod apprentice appears at his muster's door, opening the shop windows, or preparing for the business of the risen day by cleaning the glass, and exhibiting in neat array the goods which are designed tor en- trapping the eye. of the passenger, labelled to deceive, or priced to deco- y u customer by their surpassing cheapness. Tbe dapper servant- girl, with the slum- bet of the preceding night upon her eyes, is sweeping the steps at the door, coquetting with . the footman in the next area, or looking vacantly up and down the street, leaning upon her besom, and thinking, may- hap, of some far- off lovef. Such is " morning ill London,'* as it strikes the eye of the beholder, and as it is most obvioHs to the senses; but morning carries with it to thousands of bosoms there, 011 every rising still, a very different ispecfe Hmv many are there Who meet it with un- • losed eyes, whom care and misery have made sleep- less, or who see with its return the last dawning of • herished hope expire ! It is the last morn that the man of business w ill be in odour with , tht » ^ » orid ; in a few hours lie must meet bis CRI> dito? i','' aiitt his ruin will lie declared. It is the morning when the criminal must die. It is the period w hen happiness will take leave of a thousand bosoms, and the remainder of life's journey be travelled over, serrated with furrows, and broken up by misery. It is the day- spring of hope to many, who have eagerly looked forward to its dawning a long time previously. New projects await execution by the man of successful enterprise; and the business of the day, displacing sleep, and spurring the sides of his intent, as he leaves his bed, awakens a thousand new schemes. To- day, the virgin will be tbe bride ; the heir come to his pos- sessions; the aiidiUioits man- revel in'the- fruition of his desires, and the gay and giddy enjoy iiew ptea snres. Yet, of all these, ere a few hours, many will be disappoiuted, and many who rejoiced at the inorii, before evening arrives, will be silent in their last, lo^ g sleep! But this is getting serious. Hogarth has given, a capital delineation of " Morning in London," which! is familiar to all lovers of pictures; but then it is satirical. Swift, tot), haS touched upoh it. The cries, which are heard in this part of the day in rapid mul- tiplicity, have long formed a distinguishing character of London with country people. Many o'f them, indeed, are not easily understood, exccpt by the prac- the fish in my basket— three noble fellows As usual, we were obliged to wade the Rhyddol, to reach the best currents, and the sharp shingles get- ting to my feet brought to mind Peter Pindar's tale of the « Pilgrims and the Peas;" one of whom " To walk a little more at ease , Took the liberty to boil his peas." Ingenious rogue! thought I, if you were here, you might invent some method, by boiling or otherwise, lo soften these stones ! Returning homewards, we met a man of whom it is no less true than extraordinary, that though quite blind, one of his chief amusements is coursing; during which diversion a person leads his horse. When the dogs are in pursuit of poor puss, he is as much animated as any of the lookers 011; and learning the various turns and escapes she has made, be will afterwards enter into the detail as though he had been an eye- witness. A rtian returning on horseback intoxicated from a funeral, passed us with the velocity of the " mad tornado." It is notorious that certain classes of the sons of the I eek are unfortunately addicted to: the , too great indulgence of Joliti Barleycorn On these melancholy occasions.

The Angler's " sinews of war" for this purpose, are nearly all summed up in the following ( JX^ ract : 11 Your poind) must nol fail,, iStufi'M 11s full as a until With wax, silks, hair, furs, und feathers, To make several flies For the several skies, That shall kill in despite of all weathers." COTTON. The London shops are supplied by the nicer hands of females. A gentleman purchasing flies, having expressed a desire to witness the process of imitating Nature, was politely invited to step into an adjoining room, where he found a remarkably beautiful female engaged. Tbe eye of the Angler was immediately cttught, and so rivetted was its owner lo Nature, that Art was entirely disregarded : the rose on the lady's cheek outshone the beauty of the mimic insect, and led the Fisherman ( as he had led many a trout) c iptire; so that on his return he declared he knew as much of fly- making as ever; for " he could not keep his eyes oft' that angelic creature !" I presume it would be impossible for men to learn any art, ( except that of which Ovid professed himself master,) if handsome young women were to be tbe teachers ! It is remarkable, and 1 suppose owing to tbe purity of the waters, that the rivers of these parts of Wales bordering 011 the coast, generally speaking, contain none of those fish commonly called white fisli as roach, dace, chub, & c.; nor are carp or tench found in them. But salmon, trout, and eels are abundant; and salmon and trout fishing are, according to Hawker, the fox- hunting of angling. The trout of the mountain streams are not estimable for either flavour or firmness, owing to the boggy mfure of the foil over which the water, though perfectly clear, flows; but those of the larger rivers, w inding through fertile valleys, are excellent. With respect to tbe lakes, they are for the most part plentifully supplied with trout. Some arc replete with pike, particularly those of Montgomeryshire; and it wou'd appear that the border county of Salop has for centuries been celebrated for that species: for, says the quaint Barker, who flourished in 1661 tised ear. They differ according to the season, and the various wares that happen to be in fashion ;' and some of them have been set to ttiuttii*. Indeed, it is by no means uncommon to hear a solitary hawker of wares sing bis gtkuls in musical cadence; but then he happens to be one of ' ten thousand whose voices' are any thing but harmonious. In anci'iit times, it is probable, they were drawled out with a nicer atten- tion to what was supposed to be harmony. The goods thus sold at different times, or the " cries of the city," are curious, in showing the changes of the fashions. At one-' period, " Toseniary - and bays," " niariboncs ! maid's maribones !"

The following is an extract of a letter addressed by a gentleman in Congleton to a friend in London, dated 5th August, 1829 :• " As tbe Congleton committee are now arranging a plan for the employment of their poor in some Works of public utility, 1 do hope, that if yt> u have any in- fluence in obtaining the serious attention ( if the gentle- men of the London committee, they w ill bestow it in considering the very, wretched state of this once flourishing town. And I do most eam& tly entreat you, on behalf of the distressed inhabitants, knowing the kindness of your disposition towards them, and the exertions you have already made in their behalf, to state to the committee how much a further grant would tend to their relief, in giving employment to the poor at the projected works which I have already alluded to. " I do most truly and sincerely believe, that you could not do a greater service to humanity, than by advocating the claims of the miserable population to further assistance, and you could not do a greater service to your country, than by being the means of that they are wrong ever after." How this poor causing an impression to be made 011 the members of man's hair would have stood on end, could he have the government, as to the necessity of taking the watched for half a day, from the top of the new opinions of experienced and practical men, known in triumphal arch at Hyde Park Corner, the entrance of their own neighbourhood, for the strength of their the hundreds of the dangerous vehicles that pass in understanding, and the soundness of their judgment, that space of time ? How would he have grieved upon the expediency of an immediate return, before over the ruin that must inevitably follow such por- it be too late, to our former and long proved policy tentous innovations! of restriction iu regard to the silk trade.

The mails and night- coaches, almost numberless, as the watchmen retire, mark not only the period of the day, but remind the beholder' of the vast intercourse of the country with the metropolis. In 1662, there were only six stage coaches in constant employ throughout the whole kingdom; arid they were greatly opposed by the lovers qf anci< nt-' usages, who wrote against their use, prophesied the ruin they would occasion; and one writer* saiil respecting them, as a great objection to their introduction, " Those stage- coaches make gentlemen come to l » ndoh on very small occasion, which, otherwise, they would not do hut upon urgent necessity ; nay, the conveni- ence of the passage makes their wives often cofiftetup, who, rather than come such long journeys 011 horse- back, would stay at home. Here, when they have come to town, they must presently be in the mode, get fine clothes, go to plays and treats, anil by these means get such a habit of idleness and love of pleasure, wdiose opinions upon an affair of the least moment would not be asked or taken in the neighbourhood where they live. As things now arc, the suicidal act of our own government has destroyed more than half the number of those directly embarked in this branch of our national industry, and an equal number of per- sons immediately dependent upon it; and in the opiuion of every man of understanding engaged in the trade, whom I have heard speak upon the subject, it must inevitably, if persevered in, reduce the present surviving masters to an equal state of misery and wretchedness with the lowest of their workmen. " I hope you will excuse my troubling you at such length upon this afflicting subject, but I am sure you will do justice to the motives which actuate me. I think that 1 have declared my opiuion to you how I considered the people of Congleton entitled to relief beyond those of any other district in the kingdom. It is not because they are silent under their sufferings, and do not follow the examples of other places, in giving vent to their despair by attacking property, abusing the government, and violating the laws, that tlicy arc entitled to relief. Their title to it rests on too heart- rending facts. " With 26 factories still wholly standing, and the remainder working a few days only in the week— with more than 6000 persons, out of a population of 10,000, fed daily by charity, or the poor rates— with the bulk of the shopkeepers, innkeepers, and smaller trades- men, either publicly bankrupt, or privately insolvent — with a nnmber of unoccupied houses and buildings, for which no purchasers can be found, and the prospect of the value of those in occupation being swallowed up by the ever- increasing poor rates— with the best and most enterprising of the workmen, either gone, or awaiting for the means only of being enabled lo emigrate to America.— With such facts as these, I need not assure you farther, how much Ihe town of Congle- ton stands in the very foremost list of claimants for commiseration and relief." city counting- house, over which his frugal fathers lived content with honest gains There was then no Stock Exchange. The counting- house and the rooms of the paternal dwelling, ( now converted into ware- houses,) were then wont, at the early hour of seven o'clock, to witness the wholesome breakfast with its ponderous cold chine. The various stages come in loaded with the inmates of the city warehouses and their employes ; a vast mass through every avenue of London flocks to the rendezvous of bustle and toil, accumulated round the Exchange, and for some hours after changes the late scanty- peopled Cornhill into a hive of busy industry. The immense weight of mer- cantile affairs transacted in the day is generally com- pleted in the morning, and speedily brought to a con- clusion by the admirable method which habit has introduced. But while commerce and traffic have not, neglectcd the more precious part of the day for their concerns, the west end of the town has almost ceased to recognize the existence of such a portion of time in the twenty- four hours. Formerly, even Par- liament met at eight o'clock in the morning. To meet as late as ten was deemed a corruption of man iters, and a debate prolonged until four in the after- noon was deemed a most extraordinary thing, and one which could scarcely have occurred if it had not in- volved in its important issue the, question of a monarch's crown and nation's liberty. How. times are changed! . cu « -••'-. • But the hot water has been brought rip, the operation of shaving has been gone through ; let us descend to the breakfast- room, which in Loudon differs from the country, in many and various ar- rangements, but in none more thau the introduction of the morning newspaper, without which break- fast would be imperfect, and thestock of knowledge required throughout the day be found lamentably deficient. There is nothing more wonderful, nothing that sets in a higher light the power of man's intellect and industry, than the production of a daily morning newspaper at the hour of breakfast. Custom makes it a thing too familiar to many to be wondered at; they who do not think or reason ( and it is astonishing how many among mankind are of this stamp) may judge lightly of it, but not so those who are accustomed to reflection. There is iu such a printed Bheet, a perfect map of society, on which may be found laid down every hue which tinges tbe motley civilization of the country and age. Were a man banished to a solitary island iu the Atlantic, with such a newspaper reaching him, he would not lose his know ledge ef the affairs and business, of the manners and politics, of his native land, but would progress with them. A newspaper of this species brings the Individuals of a country, no matter how scattered, into one centre ; it combines aud keeps fixed to. the land of their birth the affections of wandering thousands; it carries over the world Ihe glory and greatness of the country wlieuce it emanates, in its very form and outline ; it is, iu short, the representative of national intellect; and the great vehicle of general knowledge. But we make a digression from our subject. If the morning star is rarely seen in London, and day comes 011 iu clouds heavily, it brings with it all the enjoyments of artificial life, all the improvements which the intellect of man has accumulated from the experience of ages, to render life agreeable. The picture gallery, the concert, the promenade— Ihe first of intellectual enjoyments await a London morning. Refinement spreads before the Loudouer all the elegance of her charms, and whets the appetite by the new forms she puts oil;, fashion attracts, gay equipages glide along, as the morning call, and the exchange of names on the glazed pasteboard, give au opportunity for compliment, and the pleasant, though perhaps too insiucere, addresses of conventional politeness. Next conies Evening. Thousands of lamps, in long chains of fire, stretch away to enormous distances. The display of the shops, lighted up with peculiar brilliancy, and filled with valuable merchandise, which, to decoy the customer, are rendered oftentimes more brilliant by the reflection of numerous mirrors, is most striking in effecl. The streets are thronged with people, and thousands of elegant equipages roll along to the appointed dinner- hour party, or to listen to the strains of Pasta. The night- watch, too, is going on, headed by some modern Dogberry ; two and two they set out for their beat from the parish watch- house, well- coated, lautered, and cudgelled; big with their brief authority, and full of ferocious deter- mination to keep the King's peace among all peaceable persons, but to avoid hard blows, and not to see a nightly depredatar if he comes " down" to them handsomely. Their rattles— which succeeded the horns anciently carried by watchmen to qbtain assistance or raise an alarm— proudly slung over their shoulders; formidable to friends, valiant only where cause of fear is not; and sage in. their knowledge, and firm in their own interpretation of night- constable law, they go to protect what needs not their protection, and to ueglect all that craves it in sober earnest. The evening, when the bustle of business is over with the tradesman, is the time when he seeks that relaxation which he imagines is necessary after the fatigues of the day. This unbending from the sober duties of life, too often consists in attending the smoking- room, and breathing an atmosphere little calculated to repair the effects of labour. The home is exchanged for the glass of ale and dish of politics, and bed follows before the noon of night. It is to this practice of ( miscalled) " recreation" after daily labour, that so many bloated and apopleptic persons are found in one class of citizens. The habits of the Loudon tradesmen are, after all, sedentary: and active exercise should constitute the counteracting resource to keep him in health, not fat ale and thefumes of tobacco. In the evening, every coffee house aud ale- shop is filled with those whose constitutions are too inflammatory already, aud who lay the foundation of disease by these miscalled enjoyments. In this respect, the higher orders manage better. The dance, even in a crowded ball- room, affords strong exercise, and is, beyond all comparison, more beneficial to the constitution. The theatres, which used to hold out so much attraction on a London evening, have lately fallen off; but they may still be seen with the useless parade of a military guard, and the officious link- boys receiving their quota of the auditors 011 the shut of day. It is incredible how much of vice ir attached to the evening public entertainments of thisiuost religious nation. Our theatres are thronged with degraded women, and the streets filled by them in a way seen in 110 other capital in Europe. While. masquerades iu private houses are deemed immoral.— where, in fact, they might- be made to constitute a very ralioual amusement— public masquerades are permitted, which are followed by tbe tow and infamous only, where unblushing prostitution leads the van, and the most profligate of the other sex congregate. I11 these places boxes are let out to persons, many of them pretending to respectability, who go to see only, . and to contem- plate the scene of profligacy. What effect such sights aud characters must have upon those who only go as spectatrins, it is easy to imagine. .. Ac-* customed to contemplate infamy with horror,' a- . repetition of thd sight lessens the disgust felt, until at last it is tolerated, and ultimately puts on even'ah agreeable aspect. On a fine moonlight evening, London, with the additional splendour of its gas- lamps, ( that is, pro- vided the atmosphere be tolerably free from clouds, which is not often the case,) and the moving crowds in the streets, presents a very charming aspect. Regent- street, in particular, with its different, fronted edifices, avd its ample breadth of pavement, seems almost a fairy scene. Such a street, in a milder and more agreeable climate, where night might be enjoyed with safety, would be deemed one of the most charmiug promeuades in the world ; its fame would be sounded far and uear. As it is the " eomeatability beauty" of the thing— to use! a phrase of Peter Pindar's— prevcuts that admiration, to which, as a moonlight promenade, it is justly entitled. We are accustomed to take little pleasure iri those things which are most within our reach, however worthy they may be in themselves. I fear the reader is by- this time heartily tired of a Loudon " Moruiug arid Evening," but my design is only to catch the general features of things, and not to go into particulars; there is a vast field open, 011a so large that the labour of a life would not be adequate to view all it contains, much less to describe its infinity of object's. Loudon is itself a phenomenon iu size and wealth, with its million and quarter of people. Whether so vast a capital be beueficial or not to an empire like that of Great Britain, whence the country must take its . tone, corrupt or otherwise, is a question which it would be difficult to solve; but it inay be confidently affirmed, that no modern nation of the eartlr but England will leave behind in its decay a city of sueti vastness, connected with associations of greater import, or recollections more proudly linked with the destinies of universal man.— New Monthly Magazine. DEATH or MOSES.— The Jewish lawgiver ascended the loftiest eminence in the neighbourhood, iu order that he might once behold, before his eyes closed for ever, the land of promise. From the top of mount Abirim, or Nebo, the former of which names may perhaps be traced in Djebel Attarous, the highest point in - the district, the lawgiver, whose eyes were not yet dimmed, and who had suffered none of the infirmities of age, might survey a large tract of country. To the right lay the romantic pastures of Gilead, the romantic district of Bashan ; the windings of the Jordan might be traced along its broad and level valley, till, almost beneath his feet, it flowed into the Dead Sea. To the north spread the luxuriant plains of Esdraclon, the more hilly yet fruitful country of Lower Gallilee. Right opposite stood the city of Jericho, embowered in its groves of palms; beyond it the mountains of Jtidea, rising above each other till they reached the sea. Gazing on this mag- nificent prospect, beholding in prophetic anticipation his great and happy commonwealth occupying its numerous towns and blooming fields, Moses breathed his last. The place of his burial was unknown, lest the impious gratitude of his followers might ascribe divine honours to his name, and assemble to worship at his sepulchre.— Family Library. BURNS AND SCALDS.— Amongst the numerous remedies for burns and scalds, the following de- serves to be ranked high, as not only affording im- mediate relief, but effecting a permanent cure, During fourteen years of constant use it has not been known to fail, in a single instance, of doing both:— Soak a piece of linen iu linseed oil, then suspend it from the tongs over a saucer and ignite it at the lower end. The oil which drops from it whilst consuming is to be applied when cold, with a feather to the burn, and a piece of rag steeped in it also laid lightly over. Ill a very few minutes, perhaps seconds, the pain will cease, and never return. The oil so prepared loses none of its efficacy if kept in a bottle, well corked. BRITISH SOLDIERS.— The following remarks of Colonel Napier respecting the qualities of the British soldiers are interesting :—" It has been said that the British soldiers are less intelligent in pro- viding for themselves, and less able to sustain privations of food than the soldiers of any other nation. This is one of many vulgar errors which have been promulgated respecting them. How they should be constantly victorious, and yet in ferior to all other natious ill military qualification, does not at first sight appear a very logical con- clusion: but the truth is, that, with the exception of the Spanish and Portuguese, who are undoubtedly more sober, the English soldiers possess all the valuable military qualities in as high, and many in amucli higher degree, than any other nation. They are as rapid and as intelligent us the French, as obedient as the German, as enduring as the Russian, and more robust than any; and with respect to food, that is sure, that 110 man of any nation, with less than two pouuds of solid food of some kind daily, can do his work well for any length of time." THE HEALTHINESS OF ENGLAND.— In a work recently published by Dr. Hawkins, entitled the " Elements of Medical Statistics," he states that the mortality of Great Britain, its cities, and its hospitals, are greatly inferior to that of any other country in Europe; and that " it is incontestable, that Great Britain is at present the most healthy country with which we are acquainted, and that it has been gradually tending to that point for the last fifty years. It is remarkable that this superior value of life iu Great Britain is not confined to any particular districts or classes of individuals. To whatever point we turn our view, the advantage is still the same: the man of affluence, the pauper- patient of the hospital, the sailor and the soldier in active service, the prisoner of war, the inmate of a jail,-— all enjoy better tenours of existence from this country than from any country of which we have been able to consult the records. It has been long the fashion, both abroad and at home, to exhaust every variety of reproach on the climate of our country, and particularly on the atmosphere of London ; and yet we shall find, that the most favoured spots in Europe— the places which have long been selected as the resort of invalids, and t^ e fountains of health— are far more fatal to life than even this great metropolis.— The country wliieh approaches the nearest to England in salubrity, is the Pays de Vaud, where the mortality is one in forty- nine ; whereas, the annual deaths in England and Wales are only one in sixty." At the Depot de M. eudici. te of St . Dennis, at Paris, the annual deaths are onein three, while in theheart of our metropolis. NOVEL INVENTION.— A gig, calculated to run at the rate of one mile in six minutes, and carry three jiassengers, on a good coach road, drawn by a wooden lorse, by the powerful effects of mechanism, was exhibited at Keighley, last Saturday. Isaac Brown, of East Morton, near Keighley, is the inventor. This extraordinary piece of machinery may be guided'ill any direction, by a single rein attached to the horsed mouth, and gains its power by the force of the hind legs being lifted up exactly in the same manner ris a horse in full trot. If is contrived so that the Weight it' carries will add to its power. Macclesfield Courier. THE HOUSE SPARROW.— We have no bird, I believe, more generally known, thought of, or . men- tioned with greater indifference, perhaps contempt, than the common sparrow ( fringllla domestica) " that sitteth alone on the house- top;" yet it is an animal that nature seems to have endowed with peculiar characteristics, having ordained for it • very riiarked provision, manifested in its increase and maintenance, notwithstanding the hostile attack* to which it is exposed. A dispensation that exists throughout creation is brought more lirinierfiutely to our notice by the domestic habits of this bird. The natural tendency that the sparrow has to increase will often enable one pair of birds to bring up fourteen or more young ones in the season. They build in plases of perfect security from the plunder of larger birds and vermin. Their art and inge- nuity ill commonly attaching their nests beneath that of the rook, high in the elm, a bird whoso habits are perfectly dissimilar, and with which they have no association whatever, making use of their structure only for a defence to which no other bird resorts, manifest their anxiety and contrivance for the safety of their broods. With peculiar perse- verance and boldness they forage and provide for themselves and their offspring; will filch grain from the trough of tbe pig, or contend for its food with the gigantic turkey; and, if scared away, their fears are those of a moment, as they quickly return to their plunder; and they roost protected from all the injuries of weather. These circum- stances tend greatly to iucrease the race, and in some seasons their numbers in our corn fields towards autumn are prodigious; aud did not^ vent* counteract the iucrease of this army of plunderers, the larger portion of our bread corn would be con- sumed by them. But their reduction is as rapidly accomplished as their increase, their love of asso< ciation bringing upon them a destruction which a contrary habit would not tempt. They roost in troops in our ricks, in the ivy ou the wall, & c. and are captured by the net; they cluster on the bush, or crowd on the chaff by the barn- door, and are shot by dozens at a time, or will rush in numbers, one following another, into the trap. These, and other engines of destruction so reduce them in the winter season, that the swarms of autumn gradually diminish, till their numbers in spring are ill no way remarkable. 1 have called them plunderers, and they are so : they are benefactors likewise, seeming to be appointed by nature as one of the agents for keeping from undue increase another race of crea- tures, and by their prolificacy they accomplish U In spring and the early part of the summer, before the corn becomes ripe, they are insectivorous, dud their constantly increasing families require an unceasing supply of food. We see them every minute of tber day in continual progress, flying from the nest for a supply, and returning on rapid wing with a grub, a caterpillar, or some reptile; aud the numbers captured by them in the course of these travels are incredibly numerous, keeping under tho increase of these races, aud making ample restitution for their plunderings and thefts. When the insect race becomes scarce, the corn and seeds of various kinds are ready; their appetite changes, and they feed on these with undiminished eujoymeut. We havo scarcely auother bird tbe appetite of which is so accommodating in all respects as that of the houser sparrow. It is, I believe, the only bird that is a voluntary inhabitant with man, lives In his society, and is bis constant attendant, following him where- ever he fixes bis residence. It becomes immediately an inbahitaut of the new farm house, in • lonely place or recent enclosure, or even in an island ; Will accompauy him into the crowded city', arid build and feed there in content, unmindful of the liiiise, ihe smoke of tbe furnace, or the steam engine, where even the swallow and the martin, that flock around him in the conulry, are scared by the tumuli and leave him : but the sparrow, though begrimed with soot, does not forsake him ; feeds 011 his food, rice, potatoes, or almost any other extraneous sub- of. 3Q0 prisoners received in the Fleet Prison during stance be may find in the Btreet; looks to him foi; R » IL.

CONGLETON.— As an instance of the ruinous de- preciation which has taken place in the value of silk machinery, at a sale a few days ago, winding engines, which cost £ 72, were sold for £ 2.; 229 dozen spinning and throwing mills, which cost £ 436, fetched only £ 9. 2s.! and an excellent steam- engine of four horses* power, which cost £ 220, was sold for £ 33. The whole of Ihe machinery was of the best construction, and nearly new.— Macclesfield Courier. How TO SELL A HORSE.— At the Guildhall, in Loudon, on Saturday, au old man complained of having been duped iu Smithfield, by a horse- dealer, who had sold him a rank roarer, worth about £ 2, as a sound horse. When he got him home Ite. fouud that, instead of having four black legs, as had ap- peared to his eye, three of them were white, and had been painted the opposite colour; and upon taking off some trappings ( which bad been given him), what he had mistaken for the horse's natural tail and foretop, came off too, having beeu cleverly affixed to them. He understood the horse had travelled over half the kingdom in the hands of this dealer, who would re- purchase it from purchasers, upon making a considerable sacrifice. He produced the false tail, affixed to a linen strap, as a specimen of the dressings he had mentioned. the year ending 9th March, 1828, only four died ; which is a mortality of one in severity- five.— So great was the care taken of prisoners of war in this country, that in, the year 1813 the mortality amongst them was only one in fifty- five— not one half of what occurs to the whofe population of Rome. Our readers may pel- haps remember, that in a repent case in Chancery, arising out of the Fauntle- roy forgeries, li e, counsel, in answer to a question from the Lord Chancellor, admitted that each of the litigating parties had already spent mnch more than the sum originally in dispute. The following three cases, selected from tbe Scotch appeals heard last session at the bar of Ihe House of Lords, afford a lively, and, in one instance at leaBt, a highly laugh- able proof of the extent to which litigation may be carried nttder our system of law, that perfect es- sence ef the . accumulated wisdom of ages. . In the first of these cases the original sum in dispute was under £ 40, and the question, whether a man who had performed,- work and labour to that extent, 011 a canal or some other public work, bad his remedy for payment against tbe person who immediately employed him, or the original contractor. The long and dreary passage through the Scotch courts had already ruined both parties, and they appeared at the bar of the bouse to try their appeal in forma pauperis.— In the second case, the questiou was as to the right of an outgoing tenant to cart away some 100 pouuds worth of manure. The counsel, in answer to a question from the house, admitted that the case involved no point that could be made a precedent of; it was simply and purely a dry question as to who had a right to these loads of wet muck. Vet nothing would satisfy the parties, or their legal advisers, short of the decisiou of the highest tribunal, to get before which they had each spent many times over the value of the disputed dung.— r The third case related to a right of killing game, on certain lands, upon which, according to the oaths of the witnesses, nol a single head of game had been seen within the memory of man.— Risum teneatis? A curious wager was 011 Wednesday decided On Parker's Piece. A countryman engaged to produce a person who would cast a weight of two pounds a distance of 53 yards, once out of three; times. The wager was for £ 10 a- side, and the stakes deposited; the Newmarket gentleman barring the use of tape, siring, or leather ; but lie was quite confounded at the production of a weight, attached to a flexible iron rod about tw o feet long, with a wooden handle, somewhat ill the fashion of a plumber's soldering tool, or Ihe heater of an Italian iron. This Ihe mail swung to and fro several times, until he thought he had gained a sufficient impetus, when he cast it, with apparent ease, the great distance of 63J yards — thus winning at the first throw. An objection was taken by the Newmarket gentleman as to the fashion of the weight; but the terms of the wager being read, the objection was overruled by the company present, and tbe stakes were delivered to the winner.— Cambridge Independent Press. A PROFITABLE TRADE.— A few days since, a fellow was apprehended at Chesham, in Bucking- hamshire, who, by means of a forged pass, stating that he had been shipwrecked aud lost £ 5,000, had contrived to raise from tbe overseers and in- habitants of different parishes through which he had passed, no less than £ 85.

A celebrated opium- eater, of the name of Moustapha Shatyr, lately died at Smyrna, from the gradual effects of the opium which he had acquired the habit of swallowing every day. Whilst under the influence of the drug, the expression of his face was particularly animated, and all his faculties seemed to be in a State of exaltation. He was about 40 years of age when he died, but h. e had the appearance of a much older inan. His complexion was always of a deadly hue, his body bad become emaciated and decrepit, and most of his teeth had fallen out. The quantity of opium he took every day amounted to three drams. Latterly he could not rise from his bed without first stimulating his frame with a dose ot about half a dram. his support, and is maintained almost entirely by the industry and providence of man.
