FROM THE PARIS PAPERS. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 5. AT Pera a great subject of discussion is the proposal of the new cession of territory said to have been made by the Porte to Russia, in return for Whiih th-' latter should remove, in nart or entirely, the inUitsry contribution which the Sultan's treasury would never be able to pay. The cession in question would icompri. se the greater part of Turkish Armenia. Great activity is still observed in the arsenal. Several targes of timber and naval stores have lately arrived. It was said that a famous English naval officer would soon arrive, and that he would be employed, together with the Capitan Pacha, to direct the new organization which the Sultan proposes to Rive to his fbet. SERES, Nov. 3.— No positive information respecting the peace h » vet been transmitted to us : the movements of our troops, the warlike preparations, the purchases of ammunition, & c. are not calculated to persuade the people that peace is really made— Augsburg Gazette. MONDAY, DECEMBER 7- It is said that his Majesty will this day hold a Council at Windsor Castle, when the Recorder will make his report of the felons convicted at the last Old Bailey Sessions; and at the same time it is expected that Parliament will be further prorogued. The Duke of Wellington, Mr. Secretary Peel, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Sir Henry Hardinge, have during the last week paid a visit to Bing- ham Baring, Esq., at Buckenham- house, near Brandon, where they had a grand battu on Friday and Saturday, and the slaughter, wc understand, amounted to about COO head of game. It is announced at the Russian Embassy, that the Emperor Nicholas is convalescent. Lord Tenterden has, by the advice of his medical attendants, retired into the country, where, we trust, his health will be speedily restored. New York papers to the 9th ult have arrived. They contain extracts from Carthagena papers to the 6th of October. These latter contain an account of an insur- rection which broke out about the middle of September, in the province of Antioquis, department of Cundina- jnarca, headed by General Jose Maria Cardova. " De- spair at the " conduct and aims of General Bolivar," who oppresses the whole republic, is stated in Cordova's proclamation, as the cause which induced him to raise the standard of revolt. Troops were marched against the rebels, who were insignificant both in respectability and numbers; and according to the latest accounts the in- surrection had been suppressed. Some striking instances of generous devotion for their country were manifested during the late invasion of Mexico by the Spaniards. When the Governor of Guadanaxuato ordered the second battalion of local mi- litia to march against the enemy, and the battalion was mustering for tile purpose, another set of drums was heard beating to arms throughout the town, which were discovered to be those of the first battalion, of which the men and officers, one and all, claimed " an equal right to defend their country as the second." In the city of Mexico itself the same thing occurred among the volun- teers ; and it is known that when the news of the Spanish invasion was first made public in that capital, while the chief Court of Justice happened to be sitting, every officer of the Court, from the Judge to the crier, came forward at once with a tender of their entire salaries to assist the Government until the crisis of danger should be at an end. The tragedy of Othello was acted at Drury- Lane Theatre on Friday evening. The house was full in every part. The attraction for so great and respect- able an auditory was the rare combination of dramatic talent in the representations of Othello, Iago, Cassio, Desdemona. and Emilia. Mr. Kean, of course, played the first, and sustained the noble, generous, ardent, and unsuspecting character of the unhappy and abused Moor in a manner which raised him above the cold conceptions of criticism. Mr. Young played Iago admirably. Miss Phillips supported the part of the gentle Desdemona with the greatest creilit to her taste and talents. Mrs. Faucit also and Mr. Cooper played the parts of Emilia and Cassio in very good style. On Saturday evening Rossini's Italiana in Algieri was performed by the pupils of the Royal Aca- demy of Music at the King's Theatre. The principal characters devolved on Miss Childe, Miss Tucker, Miss Bromley, Mr. Seguin, Mr. Brizzi, and Mr. C. S. Packer. Miss Childe sustained her part in a manner which would have done credit to many a more experienced prima dunna on the Italian stage. A great improvement has taken place both in the compass and flexibility of her voice; and the progress of her studies has enabled her to do ample justice to the difficult music assigned to Isabella. Miss Tucker evinced great progress of vocal attainment, and holds outgood promise. Miss Bromley distinguished herself as an able vocalist. Mr. Seguin's voice has ac- quired a deeper and fuller tone, and its cultivation has evidently been industriously kept up. Indeed, it is dif- ficult to meet with a bass voice at once so flexible, and of 60 deep a compass in a person of his years. Mr. Brizzi's musical taste and style of singing have undergone great improvement. Mr. Packer filled his part with much comic humour, and to the great amusement of the audience. One of the most remarkable features of this performance was the superior manner ill which the orchestra went through its duties. The following fact is curious:— The Home- office has refused to deposit the engraving representing John Hampden, born at London in 1.194, where lis died in 1643. It is true that Hampden had been guilty of the fault of suffering himself to be prosecuted rather than to pay a moderate capitation tax of 20s. which had been illegally imposed.— Journal du', Commerce. We learn from the Italian newspapers, that a most singular distribution has been made of the mortal remains of the celebrated Canova. The new church erected on his plan, and at hi3 expense, at Possagno, his birth place, is destined to receive his body. His heart had been deposited at the Academy of the Fine Arts at Venice; but it appears that this has given rise to some discussion, and in consequence it has been determined that it should be placed under a cenotaph in the church Dei Frati at Venice. The Academy addressed M. Ca- nova, the brother of the artist at Rome, requesting to have the right hand, with which the sculptor executed so many chefs- d'eenvre. M. Canova has consented, stipu- lating, that in case the Academy of Venice should be suppressed, or removed to another city, it shall restore this deposit to the high priest of the church of Possagno, to be re- united to the rest of tile body. Suicide seems to be making alarming pro- gress in Paris. In 1S! 24 there were 28; in 1825 and l! 12( i, tile numbers had risen successively to 40 and 49. It is the same with deaths arising from accidental violence. For the three years in question, they are 679, 712, and 810. It is not generally known that the old Act, by which journeymen and apprentices only were prohibited from playing at cards in public- houses, has been re- pealed ; and that, as tile law now stands, all gambling or card- playing, is prohibited under any circumstances, and that the respectability of the parties who may be seen playing has no effect on the law of the case. This mistake has been a great source of profit to the informers? The English monarchy completes this year ( 1829) a duration of one thousand years, from the time when Egbert ascended the throne of all England, after uniting the seven kingdoms. By a paragraph in a recent New York paper, it appears that the Methodists are going to follow the example set them by their brethren here, and are to be educated academically. The small town of Navarin, so well known to the public during the last two or three years, has been the scene of a destructive explosion, lightning having fallen on the citadel, set fire to the powder magazine, and blown it up, with all the walls and buildings in the inclosure. The loss of lives among the inmates of the citadel has, we are concerned to add, been considerable. It is imperative upon publicans, under Mr. Estcourt's Act for regulating public houses, to have the bar and tap- room in front of their houses: several, who have expended thousands in the improvement of their premises, have been obliged to re- alter them in confor- mity with the law. A clock, of which the greater part was formed of glass, has been sent to the Society of Arts. No reward, however, was given, as the cost was greater for wheel- work in that material than for a common clock, and the danger from accident would be much greater. The superior powers of the locomotive car- riage, the Rocket, were again exhibited last week near Liverpool; the carriage frequently going at the rate of 23 miles an hour, and averaging, during the excursion, including the inclined plane at Huyton, 22j miles an hour' The Zoological Society have sent out orders for the importation of two young elephants from Ceylon. The Rev. E. Forward, of Axminster, and Rector of Limington, made ( unsolicited) an abatement of 20 per cent, on the tithes in that parish, due Michael- mas last.

CORK- EXCHANGE, Monday, Dec. 7— The arrival of Wheat and Flour during the last week has not been large. This morning we had a fair ariival of Wheat from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk; the trade, however, is extremely dull, and though a few fine parcels realise the prices of this day se'nnight, the middling and secondary descrip- tions are certainly lower. Fine Malting Barley sells on rather better terms, al- though there is no improvement in ordinary sorts. Grey Peas are somewhat lower; and old Beans are also lower.— New Beans fully support our last quotation. We are very barely supplied with Oats at present, and somewhat better prices are obtained, though there is not much briskness in the trade, most of our consumers holding off, in expectation of a supply from Ireland.

The measure lately adopted by the Bank may require a few words of explanation, to those unac- quainted with mercantile matters. In the usual course of business discounts at the Bank are given only to per- sons who have been respectably introduced and have opened an account there, but the accommodation now granted is open to application on the part of persons not so introduced, the Directors looking altogether to the value of the securities which they offer. The object being to lessen or prevent the scarcity of money usual at this season, it follows, that if aid be given to persons holding bills to a considerable amount, an extension of the assistance will be afforded by these persons to others, and all causes of alarm removed— Courier. The following are extracts from the French papers:— ADRIANOPLE, NOV. 15— Our city was evacuated by the Russians on tile 11th of this month. We have been so accustomed for these three months to sec the Russians, that their departure leaves us in a kind of solitude ; the public- houses, taverns, and hotels were so animated, anil so crowded. All is now melancholy, gloomy, anil dull. Besides, we are now certain of having the Pacha of Scutari for our Governor, who has the honour of being cordially detested here. TOULON", Nov. 30.— The Egle brig has just received orders to sail immediately for the Levant, with despatches for Admirable Rigny. It is affirmed that that Admiral is recalled to France, to direct and command the expe- dition against Algiers. The Lisbon Mail received this day, and bear infylate of the 23d November, contains the following article, headed official:— " The Charge d'Affaires of his Majesty in the United States of America announces, in a despatch dated 5th October, that on the 2d of that month he had been pub- licly received by that Government in the above quality, being presented to the President of the United States with tlie usual formalities, after having on the same day deli- vered his credentials to the Minister for Foreign Affairs." The Jamaica Co it rant of the 9th states, that information from a highly respectable source had reached the island, that His Majesty's Government have under their serious consideration the practicability of purchasing the slave- property in the West Indies. To effect this ob- ject, the proposition is said to be, to fund all duties arising from colonial produce for six years, anil to make up the defalcation of the revenue, for the time, by other means. The eases of plague have very much decreased in Wallachia and Moldavia. A Morning Paper, adverting to the long- talked of project of a communication by cartal between the Atlantic and the Pacific, states that the Topogra- phical Commission appointed some time ago by the Co- lombian Government to inquire into the subject, have reported that there is no difference of level between the two oceans. We would wish ( he public, and more parti- cularly our humbler reader-, of whom we hope we have many, to call to mind for a moment the horrible crime of John Stratford, of Norwich, and his execution for murder after the last assizes of that city. He destroyed a poor man in prison, we believe for debt, witli whose wife he had had a crimir. pl connexion, by introducing a bag of poisoned Hour, from which others as well as the unhappy victim suffered, though in a less degree. From a little tract, of which a vast number have been sold, it appears, that his fate was hurried on by conveying into his mind the poison of infidelity. An iniidel publication, long since notorious for its fatal influence over the human mind, became the companion of his private hours, lie read it, and adopted its principles. He rejected the holy Scriptures; looked upon their contents as a cunningly- devised fable; and, to use his own expression, gave up his " faith in our Lord Jesus Christ." No longer was he encouraged in the path of virtue by the prospect of per- fect happiness in a future world, or deterred from the in- dulgence of his vicious inclinations by any abiding ap- prehensions of the " bitter pains of eternal death." The sober, the industrious, ingenious Stratford, under the fatal guidance of false principles— under the pernicious tuition of a Paine and a Carlile— renounced public wor- ship— broke the Sabbath— connected himself with gam- blers— became the companion of sinners, faithless to an exemplary wife, an adulterer, and in the end, a murderer. CAPITAL PUNISHMENTS.—' The Legislature of New York has passed a law, that capital executions in that State shall henceforth ta! r « pi: icc ift piii: u! c, on the ground that public punishments harden the spectators, and lead to the commission of crime. An outline of the regulations proposed by tile Government of the Netherlands has been published ; and we hope that it will effect tile great end for which it appears to be designed— the universal diffusion of useful and scientific knowledge among a shrewd and intelligent people.. The application of ' steam < o river navigation bids fair to have a very beneficial effect on the intercourse of the Netherlands with the interior of Germany, by the Rhine, the Maine, and eventually tlie Neckar. The stream of the Rhine is too strong and too rapid to be ascended by almost any power inferior to- steam. Such is the influx of English at Boulogne, that a fine Church lately erected, capable of containing 1000 people, is found insufficient, and it is in contem- plation to build a second. Madame Sonnenburg, sister of the celebrated Mozart, died on the 31st. of October last, in the ( 10th year of her age. Beautiful and accomplished, she had been caressed by Queens, Princes, and Princesses: neg- lected when tiie rage of novelty had passed away, she spent her letter days in blindness, bedridden, and so poor as to feel grateful upon receiving a present from some English amateurs, who testified their veneration for tlie memory of her illustrious brother by rendering her last moments free from the painful necessity of con tracting debts which she possessed not the slightest ability of discharging. An extraordinary instance of a domestic ani- mal assuming the habits of a wild one has occurred in this neighbourhood. About a year ago a greyhound bitch leaped over the yard dsors at the Crown and Anchor public house, in Fisher- gate, anil took up her abode in the Decoy, which is situated nearl y i. i the centre of the Carr, near this town. The ferocity, shyness, agility, and cun- ning, characteristic of a wild animal, were exemplified by this greyhound; and although she was frequently seen by the labourers in the district in full pursuit of game, and ' numerous efforts were made from time to time to secure her. jffti^ contrived for the space nearly of a year to elude the vigilapce of her pursuers, until a few days ago, when, by, il£ exercise of considerable caution on the part of thc-. keeper, Elvidge, who came within the shot, she Was . killed- Doncaster Gazette. It is ? 6; riewhat remarkable, that about three weeks since, a robin's nest, containing seven eggs, was - in a wheat rick at Great Cheverell! Mr. Dibdin's melodramatic opera of The Slave, was on Monday night pioduced at Sadler's Wells, for the purpose of giving Mr. Keene. the African Ros- cius an opportunity for displaying his ability in the character of Gambia. The house was crowded in every part, and the African was greatly applauded. His enunciation is clear and distinct, his reading sensible, and his action appropriate, lie trod the boards hrmly, and not ungracefully; delivered the text more than correctly, vetv often with strong feeling, and always, with propriety, ami managed his entrances and his exits with considerable skill; but from his colour, and the conformation of his countenance, his efforts must neces- sarily be confined to few characters, unless, indeed, new ones be written for him. The young Egyptians who had been sent to Toulon,' bv the Pacha of Egypt, for the purpose of learn- ing the art of building ships i. f war, have been recalled, and are to return immediately to Alexandria. The anniversary of St. Andrew was last week celebrated with more than usual festivity by the inhabitants of Manchester. At six o'clock a numerous party, including the most wealthy and respectable resi- dents, sat. down, in the York Hotel, King- street, to a most sumptuous dinner, which was served up by the landlord, Mr. Swyer, in a style that would have done honour to the most experienced restaurateur. The even- ing passed off with the greatest hilarity. Seldom has there been exhibited a more pleasing exhibition of social good humour. A box, for the King of the Two Sicilies, containing 75 gold watches, including 45 repeaters, the whole having gold chains, keys, and seals, passed through the Custom- house at Perpignan a few days ago* for Ca- talonia, after the usual duties had been paid. The box also contained 25 or 30 gold snuff- boxes, more or less richly ornamented, and different articles set with dia- monds or precious gems Gulignani's Messenger. The following, extracted from the Gardener's Magazine, we think deserving particular attention at the present time:— " Art. 14 Workhouse Gardens and Gardeners. " One of the greatest evils in the management of the poor of this country is the payment of able- bodied men and women, or at least of men and women who can work, without requiring or obtaining any useful labour from them. In many parishes, the parish poor are set to work at labours of no'real use to society; such as carrying or wheeling stones from one place to another, digging pits and filling them up again, & c., which cannot but be felt by the humblest labourer as an utter degradation of his nature. " In some parishes the labours are of a useful descrip- tion ; but persons who have been accustomed to work at mechanical trades within doors, or who have been ser- vants, perhaps housekeepers, can never do any good at such occupations as breaking stones, mending, watering, or sweeping roads, & c.; on the contrary, they must be disheartened and so broken down, both in body and mind, as to produce very little benefit to their employers, and to injure their own health. " Why should not every parish be obliged to have a parish garden proportionate to the size of the parish workhouse ; say one acre for every four persons, which the workhouse is calculated to maintain ? The work- houses of large towns might have their gardens ill the country, anil if it were situated at a great distance, the paupers might he carried thither in the morning and back in the evening in vans. The great advantage of garden work is its agreeableness to almost all men and women whatever, and whether they have been brought up in the town or country. The produce of these gardens would, in great part, be consumed by the poor themselves, and the remainder might be sold. By growing potatoes, ; wheat, perhaps India corn, peas, and kidney beans, of the kind used in France and America in soups, and by feeding pigs with the refuse, almost the entire subsistence of the poor would be home- made. " A good large garden, and a good gardener as a ma- nager, would always have on hand abundance of work, which would both be suitable and agreeable to every de- scription of paupers, male and female, old and young; and when able- bodied men applied for allowances, or work, they could at once be set to digging oi trenching by the job, or by measurement, which would be much better than employment by the day. Almost every tiling would depend on getting a very superior gardener, and contriving his remuneration in such a way, as to make it depend on the produce and profits of the garden. As scarcely any single parishes in the country could afford to maintain such gardener, half a dozen or a dozen parishes might join and employ a gardener in common, and this man, by keeping a horse, might visit each workhouse- garden two or three times a week. Each garden might have its pauper foreman and forewoman, and the labours, from the least to the greatest, should, as much as pos- sible, be let against time, or at certain rates; and out of every job some small proportion, if it were only a pipe of home- grown tobacco, or the remuneration might be in numbers of a certain value per dozen, should go to the private pocket of the pauper. Now. and then, when superior minded men have directed their attention to the management of the poor, or of prisoners, _ they have effected astonishing ameliorations. A case which presents itself to our mind? at this moment is that of the work- house of Hagenau, where ( iOO females, condemned to labour for limited periods, by the admirable manage- ment of the present governor, actually pay the ex- penses of the establishment, and put something in their own pockets. Let a source of agreeable and pro- ductive labour, such as large gardens afford, be found for the inmates of our workhouses, and let efficient gar- deners be set over them, and we have no doubt the poor in many parishes would nearly or wholly support them- selves. But if they did not support themselves, it would surely be a powerful check on'the able- bodied idle poor to know, that it was utterly impossible for them to get any relief without making a return in labour. Much might be effected in reforming the workhouse system if it were once fairly set about." The following is extracted from one of the monthly records of fashion :—" A man of high fashion carries a thin stick, which is secured round his wrist by a very small chain of gold ;"— and again—" the cane of a fashionable young man is of blackthorn, more or less polished and veined. Among the various kinds of handles mav be distinguished one, which represents a hand closed, holding a key. The hand is of ebony, though one made of the horn o'f a buffalo, with a key of gold, is preferred." ANTIQUITY.— In making some repairs to a well on the Parsonage farm, Faversham, the site of an ancient monastic foundation, a curious stone was taken up bearing a sculptured figure on it, supposed to be a caricature of Henry VIII. The monarch is represented in the act of devouring a man, in allusion, no doubt, to the dissolution of the monasteries and nunneries which took place in his reign. It is in the possession of John Bax, Esq. IM POUT ANT TO LODGERS.— We hear that Mr. Hume intends to move for a repeal of that most unjust and unreasonable law under which a lodger may, on the very day lie comes into his apartments, have all his goods seized to pay one year's rent of the house. It is strange that such an anomaly has so long existed. Sir G. W. Bampfylde, Bart., ahd a party of friends visiting him at Court Hall, bagged the extraor- dinary number of C2. i woodcocks, between the 23d of October and tlie 21st of November. FANCY BREAD.—[ t was decided on Friday at Union Hall, that bakers have no right to sell what they term " fancy bread," without weighing it. If they do so, they subject themsclv s to the penalty of 40/. A short time since a young woman of re- spectable exterior came to the foot of the altar of the Franciscan Chapel, Henry- street, Limerick, and made a public avov.' jil of her conversion to the rules and tenets of the Roman Catholic Church. A priest stood at each side of tlie convett, and the ceremony occupied at least half an hour, in presence of a numerous congregation.— Limerick Chronicle. In America horses' shoes are roughed in fiosty weather, not, as here, by turning up the ends of them, but by inserting two or more steel screws, which can be removed or renewed nt pleasure. Broughton, in his '- Letters from a Mahratta Camp," states that " the Prime Minister himself peram- bulates the bazaars or market places, and if he should happen to detect tradesmen selling goods' by false weight or measure, this great officer breaks the culprit's head with a large wooden mallet, kept especially for that purpose." The clergyman of a village in Leicestershire desired his clerk to give notice that there would be no service in the afternoon, as lie was going to officiate for another clergyman. The clerk, immediately as the sermon was ended, rising up, called out, " I am desired to give notice that there will be no Sarvice this afternoon, as Mr. L ii going a jishiuy With another clergyman." Mr. L., of course, corrected the awkward yet amusing blunder. A ucll- known City Alderman, being told that one of the leading Annuals had sold so as to realise a vast profit to the proprietors, remarked most acutely—" What a pity they do not publish it monthly instead of yearly!*' An Englishman fond of turbot, on going to a restaurateur's at Paris, asked for tierlot. Tlie garcon answered it was not the custom for gentlemen to take off their boots in that place. It was some time before John Hull was convinced that lie had asked for a bout- jack in place of a favourite fish ! One of our party ( says Cowper Rose, in his Four Years in Southern Africa, when relating a conver- sation with a young Kaffer) was attempting to explain to him that the moon shining above us was a world like that on which we stood ; and he listened attentively, and calmly observed, when the speaker had ceascd—'' I will not say tiiat what you have told me is net so ; but has any one been up to see it ?" As Sain Rogers was passing through Smith- field, a friend observed to him, pointing out a well- dressed drover, that lie was worth considerable money. " Nonsense," said Rogers. " Why, do you know him ?" rejoined his friend. " No I do not know the fellow; but how can he be rich or comfortable when he will always be iifknee'd." CONUNDRUMS.— Why is the King of England, when reposing on a sofa, like a tallow candle? Because he is G. R. easy, ( greasy.) Why is that which we hear and do not heed like the Lord Mayor ? Because it goes in one ( car,) and out the other. Extract from a Meteorological Journal, for No- vember, ltli'J, kept at the Observatory of the Royal Academy, Gosport:— " The first part of this month was generally mild and fine ; the latter part was cloudy and humid, with some light rain, frequent strong gales of wind, and compara- tively cold for tile season. " In the morning of the 1st, the ice was one- sixth of an inch thick on the ground, and icy efflorescences ap- peared on the inside of tlie windows, being the first time this autumn. " There was a difference of 17 degrees between the maximum temperature of the 12th and 25th, and a dif- ference of 22 degrees between the minimum temperature of the 12th and 10th ! " A great depression of the mercury in the barometer took place on the 21st and 22d, with a fresh wind from the S. E., succeeded by a S. W. wind. On the 23d, a very heavy gale set in from the N. E., anil occasioned much damage among the ships and vessels in the Downs, and along the eastern shore of the British Channel on the 24th ; it brought on snow here, which continued to fall throughout the night and most of the following day, when there was no variation of temperature at the ground from the freezing point, and the depth was three inches. This was unusually early for the appearance of snow in the immediate vicinity of the sea, as we seldom see any lie on the ground here before Christmas in the coldest win- ters. A rising temperature, with wind and rain in the night, dissolved nearly all the snow on the level ground by the morning of the 2lith. " More favourable weather for getting the seed into the ground last month and the early part of this, could not have been desired ; and even that depth of snow, from its containing and absorbing so much oxygen, has served as the best compost for the neighbouring lands, and softened the ground surprisingly. " The mean temperature of the external air this month is three degrees and three quarters lower than the mean of November for many years past. " The atmospheric and meteoric phenomena that have come within our observation this month, are two meteors, one rainbow, and nine gales of wind, cr days on which they have prevailed, namely, two from the N-, three from the N. E., two from E., one from S. W., and one from the west." The British Almanack for the year 1830, published by the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, contains a great quantity of valuable miscel- laneous information, in which every class of persons may find something important for daily reference. The Com- panion to the Almanack, publish, ed by the same Society, presents powerful claims to public approbation. Its ob- ject is, to illustrate the Almanack, and to condense into a small compass a great body of information essential to be known by every member of the community. Among its contents will be found, The Eras of Ancient and Modem Times explained ; the Jewish and Turkish Ca- lendars for 11130 ; Table of the Progress of Geographical Discovery; List of Conservatory Plants; Natural His- tory of the Weather ; On the Tides; Observations of a Naturalist, & c. & c. BRISTOL COLLEGE.— The subscriptions to this undertaking are gradually increasing, and upwards of 1 fifi shares have already been taken. The projectors are very sanguine of ultimate success. Dr. Sloane, of Cork, has invented a tallow lamp on an entirely new principle. This lamp will burn any kind of tallow, lard, or grease, giving a mire light, and varying in intensity at pleasure, from the dim flame of the chamber rushlight to the broad glare of the finest gas. It may be manufactured for the low price of two shillings; but is at the same time capable of being made an elegant appendage to the drawing- room. When mo- derately lighted, Dr. Sloane's lamp will give the light of eight mould candles of four to the pound, consuming at the same time the tallow of four. The celebrated traveller. Baron Humboldt, arrived at St. Petersburgh on the 13th ult. after having performed a journey of 10,000 English miles. He was graciously received by the Emperor, and presented with the Order of St. Ann of the First Class. About two years ago M. Von Humboldt, from the great resemblance between the mountains of the Ural and those of Brazil, concluded that diamonds might be found in Siberia. Count Von Polier, who accompanied him, was led by his conversation to the same conclusion; and, when M. Humboldt went to Tobolsk, the Count left him to visit the estates of his wife, on the left of the Ural. On his arrival he caused search to be made at a place 250 weists from Perm, where gold is found, and, though there was no machine at hand, the children em- ployed in gold- washing found seven diamonds. The search will be henceforth conducted ir, a regular manner. POTATOE DYE.— Sir John Sinclair has ascer- tained that the flowers of the potatoe dye a most beau- tiful and durable amber or orange colour. It is said that Mr. Mann, surgeon, Falkirk, has discovered a process by which the power of gunpow- der is greatly increased. Mr. Mann has, at the recom- mendation of his grace the Duke of Wellington, made application to the Board of Ordnance, who have given the discovery a very favourable reception. In this season of the year, shopkeepers and others who have lamps in exposed situations, suffer con- siderable loss from the currents of air causing an unequal contraction in the different sides of the Argand lamp glasses. This inconvenience may be very much dimi- nished by cutting the glass in tlie direction of its axis, with a diamond or file, from one end to the other. Prevention of Accidents by Fire.— Rinsing the clothes, after washing, in alam water. This would ef- fectually hinder their blazing up and enveloping the un- happy sufferer in flames, as the liability of the clothes taking tire would be considerably diminished, or, even should this happen, they would only consume and moulder away; consequently the ease with which the fire could be extinguished becomes manifest. A few days ago an elegant ring was manu- factured in Exeter from the beautiful gems lately disco- vered by Mr. Shirley Woolmer in the vicinity of Dart- moor, being tile first of the kind that has been produced in this island. A few days since, Mr. Adams, grocer, of Fowey, purchased at a sale, at that place, an old book for twopence, intending, we believe, to use it tor waste paper. In examining it, previously to its being torn up for use, he discovered in the lining of the cover several gold coins of the reigns of James I. and Charles I.— West Briton. A salmon, with two heads and two tails, was lately caught in the river Towy, Carmarthenshire. A man was apprehended the other day by one of the police, for carrying a hare through the streets; he would not say who had given it him, was the efore fined ten shillings; and the hare was sent to the work- house for the second course of the paupers' dinners. This case appears to he extremely hard, because v e, ourselves, saw a barber carrying Mr. Justice Littledale s full- bottom down to Westminster Hall the very same day, and nobody interfered with him ; a proof that in these times, it is infinitely safer for a man to carry another man's wig, than his own hare— John Bull. A publican named Lendrum, residing at Castlebar, absolutely burnt his wife to death last week : her remains were found under the kitchen grate. The monster has been committed for trial. PENALTY FOR SWEARING.— It is perhaps not, generally known that a day labourer, common soldier, or sailor, is liable to a fine of Is., a tradesman of 2s., and a gentleman, & c. of 5s. for every profane oath ; for a second offence the fine is doubled, and for a third offence trebled. THE MICROSCOPF.— Scholt tells an amusing story in his Magic of Nature, of a Bavarian traveller, who travelling in the Tyrol ( early in the 17tli century) with one of the newly- invented microscopes about him, he was taken ill on the road and died. The authorities of the village took possession of his baggage, and were proceeding to perform the last duties to his body, when, on examining the little glass instrument in his pocket, which chanced to contain a flea, they were struck with the greatest astonishment and terror, and the poor Ba- varian, condemned by acclamation as a sorcerer, who was in the habit of using a portable familiar, was de- clared unworthy of Christian burial. Fortunately for his character, some bold sceptic ventured to open the instru- ment, and discovered the true nature of the imprisoned fiend. A most atrocious murder has been committed on the body of a young woman, named Turner, who had been for some time past engaged in the lace manu- factory at Chard. It appears that on Monday evening, after leaving her work, she visited an individual of her acquaintance, who has recently undergone the amputa- tion of a icg— She left his residence for the purpose of, returning home about half- past eight, since which time she was not heard of until the following morning, when her body was found lying in the Ilminster- road, about half a mile from Chard, in a horribly mangled state. The head was almost severed from the body; a deep wound, which was inflicted on the breast, passed nearly through the body, penetrating to the very back; and one of her breasts was nearly severed from her body, to which il was found attached merely by the skin. Strong sus- picions have been excited against a man who lately as- saulted the deceased with a criminal intention, and for which she had summoned him before the Bench of Ma gistrates ; he has been apprehended, and in his lodgings >. handkerchief and pair of stockings have been found, upon which the marks of blood are evident. He is therefore detained in custody until the decision of the coroner's in- quest shall be known. The deceased was a native of Marshalsea, Dorset.— Somersetshire Gazette. SUPPOSED MURDER.— On Wednesday last an inquest was held at Walcot poor- house, Bath, on the body of Mary Broom ( wife of Mark Anthony Broom, a retail brewer, living at the top of Mark's- hill) who was found on Sunday afternoon lying on the floor of her bed- room, with a piece of tape firmly twisted about four times round her neck, and life extinct. The jury, after a minute examination which lasted nearly 8 hours, re- turned the following verdict:—" That Mary Broom, on the twenty- ninth day of November, was found dead, but whether by her own hands, or by the hands of another person or persons, for want of evidence, the jury cannot determine; but they strongly suspect, and are unani- mous in opinion, that it had been committed by others, and not herself."— It is understood that the Magistrates intend to institute a fnrther inquiry into the aftair. An ofiicial order lias been issued, permitting maltsters to sprinkle their grain in operation, at the expiration of eight days from the time of iu being emptied fiom the cistern, by giving twcnty- four. hours' notice to the surveying officer. ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.— On Sunday morning last, as two men were proceeding along the Deptford- road, near New- cross, they heard the moans of a person, as it in distress, within the palings. Tliey immediately gof over into the shrubbery, and were very much shocked on seeing an aged man lying down on the bare ground, close to some low- stunted trees, which precluded tiie possibility of seeing him without going up quite close to the place where be was found. He was dreadfully emaciated, and the blood issued from a wound that appeared to have been recently inflicted in his neck. They immediately went for a constable, who lost no time in rendering his assist- ance, and the wounded man was forthwith carried to the Five Bells, where his wound was sewed up, and after some nourishing things were administered to him, he became so far recovered as to be enabled to give some account of the circumstances which led to his deplorable condition. On being asked how the wound in his neck was inflicted, he admitted that lie had drawn aknife across his throat with the intention of ending his miserable life, but hail not effected bis purpose, owing to the bluntness of the blade. He then stated that be had been a sailor on board a man- of- war the greater part of his life, and that when he was no longer fit for service, he became an in- pensionet of ( Greenwich- hospital. Having some relations in Norfolk, he set out on the journey to see them without making known his intention, and when he returned back to Greenwich they refused to admit him, on the ground that he had broken through one of the re- gulations of the hospital. He tried every effort to obtain admission once more to a place that he considered he was entitled to from his long servitude in the Navy ; but ail his endeavours were fruitless, and he was thus in his old age thrown upon the world, without friends who would assist him. Ever since his expulsion from the College lie had been wandering about, haying no place or habi-' tation, and, b: ing beyond labcar, on account of his age, he had suffered the most dreadful privations, going often for days without victuals, and sleeping in the open air, having nowhere else to lay his lioait The unfortunate man's emaciated and starved abearance, when found in the situation above described, verified the truth of his statement: the poor old man, who is upwards of 70 years of age, was conveyed to Deptford workhouse, where every care is taken of him, and hopes are entertained of his recovery. MURAT.— It was said of Murat, by Napoleon, that when he advanced to the charge he resembled a paladin of old more than a modern soldier. In his cos- tume he imitated the ancient knight; his noble port showed majestically under the chivalric garb; add to this his more than mortal daring, and we shall not won- der that the very Cossacks raised a shout of admiration when he approached tliem. A striking example of this occurred September 4th. The King with a few squadrons, had left Gratz, followed at some distance by the grand army ; in his march he was much annoyed by clouds of Cossacks, who hovered about the heads of his columns, and from time to time compelled them to deploy. This troublesome series of interruptions at length incensed him to such a degree, that he galloped up to them unat- tended, and in an authoritative voice, cried out, " Clear the -. cay, vermin." It is a fact equally extraordinary and incontestable, that these wild sons of the desert were so awed by his manner, as involuntarily to obey the com- mand ; nor did they again block up the way during the whole cf that day's march. EXTREME TENUITY.— Tiie thinnest substance ever observed is the aqueous film of the soap bubble previous to its bursting; yet it is capable of reflecting a faint image of a candle or the sun. Hence its thickness must correspond with what Sir Isaac Newton calls the beginning of black, which appears in water at a thickness of the 1- 750,000th part of an inch Monthly Mag. AN AMERICAN STORY.— An Irishman arrived at Boston last summer, and sought employment as a labourer, and finally obtained an engagement on one of the islands in our harbour. Pat had never seen a duck in his life. Shortly after his entering upon the discharge of his new duties, a brood of chickens and another of ducks were hatched, both by hens. The owner put both broods to one hen, in order to save the services of the other, and told Pat, as he was short of meal, to be very sparing in his allowance in feeding them. Pat made a small dish of dough, and commenced feeding his mixed flock, when he was struck with the fact, that about half had broad shovels for beaks, and shovelled up the dough very fast, while the others had quite small sharp beaks, and got but little of the allowance. " Arragh! my dar- lings," says Pat, " fair play is a jewel; I'll just be after putting you upon aqual futting." He started for the house, got a pair of shears, caught them of the shovel beak, and sheared them down to the calibre of those of the sharp beak ; put them down, and said, wag away, you spalpeens; I am told this is a free country, where every man, baste, and bird, are equal; no exclusive privileges, my darlings, if you please."— Providence Advertiser. THE WILD HORSE.— All travellers who have crossed the plains extending from the shores of La Plata to Patagonia have spoken of numerous droves of wild horses. Some affirm tljat they have seen 10,000 in one troop. They appear to be under the command of a leader, the strongest and boldest of the herd, and which they implicitly obey. A secret instinct teaches them that their safety consists in their union, and in a principle of subordination. The lion, the tiger, and the leopard, are their principal enemies. At some signal, intelligible to them all, they either close into a dense mass, and trample their enemy to death, or placing the mares and foals in the centre, they form themselves into a circle, and welcome him with their heels. In the attack, their leader is the first to face the danger, and, when prudence demands a retreat, they follow his rapid flight. An amended police bill for Ireland is to be brought forward by Lord Leveson Gower.— Times. The quantity of counterfeit silver coin now in circula- tion, is believed to be greater than for many years past. CORN- EXCHANGE, Dec. 9. The mealing trade was far from being brisk this morning; still fine samples of Wheat obtained Monday's prices. Malting Barley was extremely lively, and fully supported Mon- day's improvement, but the middling and inferior quali- ties were unsaleable. Oats, owing to the shortness of tile supply, maintained their currency.

THE reports of a change of Ministry are more and more confirmed. This evening it was the general opinion in all the salons, where the news from the Court circulates. ' FRONTIERS OF SERVIA, NOV. 20— The accounts from Constantinople are pretty satisfactory, but there seems to be a general fermentation in all the provinces. Adrianople was evacuated by the Russians on the 11th; only the sick, and a small body of troops for their pro- tection, remain in the city. Mustapha Pacha, of Scutari, began to approach Adri- anople on the 10th, in order to take possession of it im- mediately after the departure of the Russians. It is said he has published a proclamation, exhorting all Mussul- mans to concord, and also promising a general amnesty to all the subjects of the Sultan who have taken part m the political events of the late war. TRIESTE, Nov. 2fi It is believed at Corfu, that England, notwithstanding the peace between Russia and Turkey, intends to augment rather than diminish its naval force. - . , , ... ... FRANKFORT, Dec. 2 It is asserted that Sir Wm. A'Court is recalled from St. Petersburg, where he is to be replaced by Lord Somerset. The Emperor Nicholas is said to have demanded this change. London, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11. The House of Lords met yesterday pursuant to prorogation, when the Lords Commissioners . farther prorogued Parliament in the usual form till the 4th of 1 February. . , It is said that his Majesty lias intimated a wish that the whole of the eastern wing of Somerset House may be devoted to the establishment of King s College, in addition to the building now in progress. The Duchesses of Wellington and Buckingham icmains at Strathfieldsay and Avington, gladdening the hearts of the poor at this inclement season, and are not expected to join the festivities at Stowe. It is conjectured that the health of the pre- sent Recorder of London so frequently interrupting his public duties, and especially preventing his attendance on the King in Council, must necessarily lead to his very soon retiring from office, in which we are happy to hear Mr. Denman will ccrtainly be his successor. The accounts from Orleans state, that much sickness prevails on the coast; an epidemic raged with greater violence than recollected for some some time past, and manv had fallen victims to it. A change in the weather had occurred, and it was hoped that the ravages of the malady would be checked. The Mansion- house Committee have agreed to a report, making a strong and emphatic call upon the Legislature to extend to this country a modihcd system of poor laws. One of the committee proposed the intro- duction of a clause condemnatory of the free trade system, but the proposition was rejected— Dublin paper. The present Lord Lieutenant of Ireland is said to have made it a condition, at the time of his ap- pointment, that his Viceregal reign should last but one year. Lord Jersey is now spoken of as the most proba- ble successor to his Grace. Canada papers to the. 15th nit. have been received. They continue to afford evidence of the rapid improvement in British America; they are filled with the ptogress of the new settlements on two small rivers ; the improvement of the navigation by steam- boats; the making of roads, and exploring parties sent into the interior. There is still no precise intelligence as to the nature or probable issue of the disorder of the Emperor of Russia. Up to the date of the latest advices he was very ill. The disease, whatever it was, had not given way ; and as he is at that age when nature, and the art and care bestowed on him, would speedily subdue any disease not very deep- rooted and powerful, this fact alone justifies some apprehensions concerning the result, though Emperors, like other men, are sometimes very ill without dying,— Globe. A Guernsey paper, just arrived, says that the French Government, in order to encourage the brandy distilleries, have laid a heavy duty on foreign spirits, particularly on British rum ; and that they also strictly prohibit tlie importation of foreign tobacco, in order to encourage the culture of their own in Normandy and Britanny. The ex officio informations filed by his Ma- jesty's Attorney- General against The Morning Journal, The Atlas, and The Age newspapers, for libels on the Lord Chancellor, have been just set down for trial at the Nisi Prius sittings in Middlesex, in the course of the present month. It is generally rumoured that Michael Angelo Taylor, Esq., M. P., will shortly resign his seat for the City of Durham, in consequence of ill health,— Tyne Mercury. Smithfield Prize- Cattle Club.— Yesterday, the judges appointed to distribute the prizes founded by the Club, met at the Castle and Falcon.— The number of cattle sent in to the Show ( his year far exceeds that of any year since the Club was established ; and, without excep- tion, ( he specimens of fine breeding fnr surpass all the previous exertions of the fenders, assisted ns they have been by the season. The number of line beasts in the yard occasioned some difficulty among the judges as to where the greatest prize should be given. If an abundance of fat is any proof of superior breeding, the cattle sent in this year are beyond praise. Indeed, two oxen were unable, after reaching the yard, to support themselves, and sunk under the burthen. They were killed— Some beautiful specimens of sheep- breeding were exhibited, as well as some pigs. The number of charitable establishments in the city of Dublin nlone, which are under the superinten- dence of ( he Catholic clergy, and of which the object i. « the instruction of the poor, conveys a complete refutation of the most unwarrantable charge that the Roman Catho- lic Church of Ireland is hostile to education. Scarcely a single Sunday goes by without n solemn adjuration by the priest from his pulpit, to feed the poor with intellectual aliment, and to invest their minds with instruction,— Globe. DRURY- LANE.— Mr. Kean's representation of Sir Giles Overreach on Wednesday evening attracted a most numerous audience. He depicted, with consum- mate skill, the various passions which agitate the breast of this " bold bad man," and was loudly applauded throughout his performance. Marall was admirably personated by Mr. W. Karren. The subordinate cha- racters of Wellborn and Justice Greedy were effectively filled by Mr. Cooper and Mr. Webster, and the play was received in the best possible manner. COVENT- GARDENTHEATRE— Theappcarance of Miss Kemble ns Belvidera on Wednesday evening, before one ot the fullest and most enthusiastic house s ever remembered, may be looked on as the most memorable a> ra that the stage has known since the debut of Miss O'Neill. Miss Kemble's performance was triumphant to a degree seldom witnessed on the stage.— The secret of her success is easily told. It is its perfect truth nnd freedom from the too often depressing trammels of art. She ha* stutlied in the comprehensive school of Nature, who, in return, hns been no niggard in her instructions. Thut qualified, she has but to " go on and ' prosper." For so Jong as the Blandusian fountain of true healthy feeling still preserves its freshness in her heart, purifying and strengthening all within the range of its sweet influence, so longwill Miss Kemble continue herextrnordinarycareer, the pride, the ornament of the modern stage. A young man named Edward Lovesy, a sawyer, residing at Rotherhithe, died last Friday from hydrophobia, occasioncd by the bite of a little dog so long ago as July, 11128. Ilis health hnd never been affected by it till last Thursday, when he was seized with the fatal symptoms. He has left a wife and three children. Upon Friday last, the Manchester steam- vessel, which hnd, during the late storm, received con- siderable injury in the bay of Dublin, was towing to- wards Liverpool, for the purpose of being repaired. The vessel in company with her was the Ballinasloe steam- boat. When the crew of the Manchester had proceeded some way they perccived that she had sprung a leak, and gave instant alarm to those in the Ballinasloe, who took them on board. A short time after her crew, amounting in all to near forty persons, had left the Manchester, she went down in the Channel, atsome distance from Skerries. The Manchester was, it is said, worth 18,000/.— Dublin Register of Monday. During the late gales, a rare and very large bird, the Bassanus, Gannel or Solan Goose, was taken alive upon the beach at Bacton. These birds abound in the northern regions, particularly in Pass Island, in the Frith of Forth. It has been preserved by Mr. Ransome, of North Walsham, in whose possession it remains— Norfolk Chronicle. Silver aiid Gold Mine discovered in Devonshire. — A correspondent in the Morning Herald informs us, that " while working a recently- opened mine— copper having been the object of search— there has been dis- covered a large and regular lode of silver and gold in the Wigford Mine, which is situated not far from Loddis- well, near Kingsbridge. The ore that contains the pre- cious metals discovered in this mine may be considered a new production in this country, it being different both in appeaiance and produce from any heretofore discovered in England. In some particulars it bears great similarity to the copper ore of the Hartz Mountains, in Germany. The ore of the Wigford Mine is of a dark- gray colour, approaching to black, with a metallic lustre; and upon analysis it is found to consist of iron, antimony, copper, silver, and gold. The lode is of considerable width, and the accompanying minerals are a white fluor spar, spatose iron ore, and carbonate of lime. The mine has been worked, and the discovery made, by some private in- dividuals." It is strange that, after a fall * f nearly every thing else, house- rents in most parts of the metropolis should stiil retain their war prices. Were we as eloquent as angels, yet should we please some men, some women, and some children, lnuch more by listening than by talking. EASTERN EXPEDITION.— Dr. Gerard has just visited the valley of Sulej, and made some curious ob- servations at that place, which is the highest inhabited spot on the globe. The principal object of his journey was the introduction of vaccina'tion into Thibet; but it appears that the prejudices of the Rajah prevented him from succceding in that humane enterprise. One of the villages where lie stopped was proved to be 14,700 feet above the level of the sea. At this place, in the month of October, the thermometer, in the morning, marked 8° 33' centigrades below zero; and during the day the rays of the sun were so hot as to be inconvenient, and yet the waters in the lakes and rivers were frozen during the night, but were free from ice at two o'clock in the afternoon. By means of artificial irrigation, and the action of solar heat, large quantities of rye were raised at this immense height, some of the fields being at 14,900 feet. Dr. Gerard gives his opinion, that cultiva- tion, might be carried as high as from 18 to 17.000 feet. The goats bred in this region are the finest in the coun- try, and are of that species whose wool is used for the manufacture of shawls At a height of 13,500 feet, quantities of fossil shells are found on calcareous rocks, upon strata of granite and pulverised schyst: they con- sist of muscle, and others of various forms and dimen- sions. To the north of the frontier of Konnaour, Dr. Gerard attained a height of more than 20,000 feet, with- out crossing the perpetual snow. In these regions, which for a long time were inaccessible, M. Gerard met with one of the most intrepid philologists known in Hungaria, named Csoma de Koros. This traveller, after advancing towards the centre of Asia, arrived at Konnaour, in Thibet, where he fixed himself in the monastery of Kanum, and lived amongst the monks of the Laniaic religion. Aided by a learned Lama, he made great pro- gress in the study of the literature of Thibet, and dis- covered an encyclopaedia in forty- four volumes, which treated of the arts and sciences. The medical part of this large work forms five volumes. The art of litho- graphy has been practised at the principal city of Thibet from time immemorial, and it has been used to display the anatomy of the different parts of the human body. It appears that science and letters, flying from the tyranny of tlie caste of the Brahmins, abandoned tile plains of Hindostan, and took refuge on the mountains of Thibet, where, until the present time, they remained totally un- known to the rest of the world— Le Globe. At a meeting of the Societe d'Emulation of Rouen, a few days ago, M. Brunel, the engineer, an- nounced that, his " plan for the execution of the Thames Tunnel was not to be changed, and that the works would be resumed in March. Tic DOULOUREUX. — Mr. T. B. Cooper, of Guy's Hospital, has lately communicated to the medical profession a case of Tic Douloureux, in which carbonate of iron succeeded in effecting a cure. The patient com- menced with 20 grains, mixed with treacle, four times a day, and gradually added five grains to each dose till she arrived to 40 grains. After taking it a fortnight, the stomach became reconciled to it, and the pain, which had been daily decreasing, entirely ceased, with an im- provement of lier general health. She then began to de- crease the dose gradually till it came to four grains, when she discontinued it. Poisonous Mushrooms.— In cooking mush- rooms for the table, always boil with them an onion stripped of its outer skin. If in the process the onion becomes either black or blue, do not use the mushrooms ; if thev are harmless, the onion will remain white, Gamesters defined.— Needy adventurers— demi- sharps— half- and- half- gentlemen, who are obliged to seek at the gaming- table the means of keeping up appearances. Would any man of sense, or proper feeling, commit the happiness of a beloved daughter to a gamester ? A professional gentleman in Somersetshire lately received the following note:—" Mr I ohers you not to gow on wie the Bisbins of min no firther— of the giting Polizey, that I un Plid you about to get the muny—" The literal translation of which is—" I autho- rize vou not to proceed with the business of getting the Policy for me which I employed you to raise money on." BATH AND WEST OF ENGLAND SOCIETY. The General Meeting of this Society was held on Monday at Hetling House, Dr. Parry, Vice President, in the chair. The appointment of judges of Live Stock was the first business which came before the Meeting. On the presentation of a specimen of " Cob- bett's Corn," grown by Mr. Mitchell, of Trowbridge, an interesting conversation took place between several members on the probable advantage to be derived from the cultivation of Indian Corn in this country. The Rev. Mr. Phelps was of opinion that it would never grow in England without a great quantity of manure, and said that even in France its cultivation was chiefly confined to the southern provinces. Dr. Wilkinson said that Indian corn, even when brought to perfection, would not of itself serve the purposes of wheat. The Rev. Mr. Smithies thought the " Cobbett corn" mania was one of the humbugs of the day which would soon die a natural death Dr. Parry stated that his crop of Indian corn had this year entirely failed— Mr. Webb Hall observed, that it appeared to be the general opinion that Indian corn was not fit for field culture in this country, and that this Society ought not to recom- mend it. G. W. Hall, Esq. gave notice of his intention to propose to the Society that the Annual Meeting of the Society be held every alternate year at Bristol. Mr. Webb Hall gave notice of his intention to propose that their General Meeting be in future held in the second week in February. It was proposed and agreed that the Annual Plough- ing Match for 1030 should be holden within 5 miles of Warminster, in the month of July ; and the following gentlemen were appointed judges: T. Davis, Esq. of Warminster; R. Hughes, Esq. of Devizes; G. W. Hall, Esq. of Sneed Park; Captain Edgell, R. N. of Standerwick Court; J. Benett, Esq. M. P. of Pyt House. The Annual Meeting was held on Tuesday, when, in the absence of the Marquess of Lansdowne, W. Dickinson, Esq. was called to the chair. The election of the Society's officers then took place. A letter was read from the Right Hon. H. Goulburn, in answer to a communication from Mr, Dickinson, relative to the removal of the prohibition against the culture of tobacco. The Right Hon. Gent, regrets that he cannot concur in the views of the Society; the duties now received from the importation of tobacco being too considerable to be abandoned, and doubts whether the growth of tobacco in this country would answer the pur- pose of the cultivator. The Report of the Committee of Superintendence, read I by Dr. Parry, stated, that the funds of the Society were i in an unfavourable condition, the number of subscribers I having greatly diminished. The Report concluded by I alluding to the proposition about to be brought forward; for removing the annual meetings of the Society alter, nately to Bristol. The Marquess of Lansdowne ( who arrived shortly before twelve o'clock, and took the chair,) observed, that he thought it would be advisable, that so important a measure as that referred to in the Report of the Com- mittee of Superintendence should be brought forward without delay. George Webb Hall, Esq. said, that, in pursuance of the notice he had given, it became his duty to state to the meeting a most important proposition ; it was no less than that the annual meeting of the members of this So- c: ety, and the exhibition of stock, should be removed. We had in the neighbourhood of Bath a city containing 100.000 inhabitants, which was, in fact, the capital of the West of England; closely connected also with the prin- cipality of Wales, and now brought within 30 hours dis- tance of the kingdom of Ireland. The measure would have the advantage of bringing into closer union the ma- nufacturing, agricultural, and commercial interests of the community. He said, that among other advantages of the plan he proposed, it would excite a spirit of emulation between the two cities of Bath and Bristol which would materially benefit the Society; and concluded by moving that the future meetings be held alternately at Bath and Bristol. F. Ellis, Esq. observed, that this proposition required great deliberation. Dr. Parry said, this was a startling proposition, and there were many, he feared, who would| notconnectthem- sclves with the society if its place of meeting was re- moved ; but nevertheless he did certainly wish that the trial should be made. With regard to the advantages to be derived from removing the meetings alternately to Bristol, he regarded the intimate connection of that city with the arts, manufactures, and commerce as an addi- tional argument in its favour. The Rev. Mr. Smithies regretted having heard this proposition made, as he considered it the first symptom of disease, which might end in dissolution. The Marquess of Lansdowne observed, it would be ma- terial, in a financial point of view, to ascertain whether the removal of the annual meetings and exhibition of stock would be attended with any expence. The Rev. W. L. Bowles supported the proposed change of tlie place of meeting. Mr. Allen strongly opposed Mr. Hall's motion, and moved as an amendment, that the question be considered this time next year. Mr. Webb Hall replied to the objections which had been started against his measure. A show of hands took place on Mr. Allen's amend- ment, when the majority was declared against it. Mr. Hall then withdrew his motion, and the question consequently stands over till next year. Dr. Wilkinson was callcd upon to read a paper on the bane in sheep. He would now merely state the heads of it, and if the meeting thought proper to adjourn to the following day, he would then read the whole. Ho re- presented it to be a most excellent essay on the subject, by a person in an humble station in life. It was agreed that at the close of the business of the day the meeting should adjourn to the next day ( Wednesday) to hear the treatise. In revising the premiums for rewarding industry and good behaviour, Mr. Webb Hall callcd tile attention of the meeting to the practicability of relieving to a certain extent the immense amount of idleness, degradation, and vice, so lamentably prevalent amongst our agricultural labourers. He was satisfied that much good might be done by facilitating the letting, to any labourers desirous of obtaining it, a very few perches of land, to be culti- vated by themselves, for their own use: he wished this to b; granted by the larger occupier of land. No sub- ject could be better worthy of reward, from the Society. The premium, to consist of the Bedfordean gold medal' was carried unanimously— The meeting then adjourned. A dreadful accident occurred in the neigh- bourhood of Sligo last week. A poor woman left her child in the cradle while she went out for die purpose of procuring water. She returned in the course of ten mi- nutes, and found the cradle surrounded by seven pigs, and some of the limbs of the child scattered about the floor. The child wasdevoured by these ravenous animals. Great Mortality among the Admirals.— The piping time of peace ( loes not seem to agree with our gal- lant Admirals, for a most unaccountable mortality has occurred among them since the settling blow was struck on " Waterloo's ensanguined field." The flag- officers who have died since 1816 amount to the incredible num- ber of 188 ! Even since the first of last January, ten of the noble veterans have struck their flags to tile grim monarch, who, soon or late, conquers all. At a meeting in one of the Western towns of Massachusetts, tor the purpose of foiming a Temperance Society, a gentleman occupied the floor for a time, advo- cating'the suppression of gross drunkenness; but at the same time disapproving of the principles of entire absti- nence. and pleading tlie necessity of temperate use, i. e. a little every day, in the case of some persons. When he took his seat, i man more than half intoxicated, ragged, filthy, with a long beard, started up in a dis- tant part of the house, and exclaimed, " Mr. Moderator ! ' Squire has ' spressed my mind ' xactly." This short speech overset the gravity of the assembly, and the argument of ' Squire , both together; and a Society was foimed, without further difficulty, on the principles of entire abstinence.

[ 3340 CHILBLAINS, RHEUMATISM. SPRAINS, & c. BUTLER'S CAJEPUT OPODEL- DOC Cajeput Oil, which is the hasis of this Opodeldoc, has been long esteemed on the Continent, as a reftiedy for Chronic Rheumatism, Spasmodic Affec- tions, Chilblains, Palsy, Stiffness, and Enlargement of tlie Joints, Sprains, Bruises, and Deafness; and the ex- perience of late years, in England, proves that it merits the high character given of it by the most eminent of the profession, in those obstinate complaints. Being com- bined in the form of Opodeldoc, it is rendered n: ore penetrating, and consequently much more efficacious as an external application.

CAUTION.— The Public ate respect- fully cautioned against the numerous counterfeits of the above article: some of them say ATKINS instead of ATKINSON, others WILLIAM, THOMAS, & C. in- stead of JAMES ; and being generally got up for cheap- ness are mostly rancid fats mixed with pungent essential oils, and are very deleterious. The genuine may be dis- tinguished from the counterfeits by attending to the fol- lowing particulars. The counterfeits have a printed label ! on the top of the pot; the Genuine is not printed but engraved on the pot, and burnt in like all other delph | or china ware when the pot is made. It is a Bear with the words ' Atkinson's Bears' Grease for the Hair.' The Genuine has also a small address label pasted on the edge of the pot, with the words Atkinson, 41, Gerrard- street, London,' this is in a circle, and much resembles a stamp, and is vtry difficult to imitate, At- kinson's Bears' Grease is now well known for promoting the growth of the Hair. It is warranted Genuine with- out any admixture, except a little perfume to keep it sweet; and, independent of regenerating the Hair, it is very pleasant for dressing it, making it beautifully soft anil glossy.

SATURDAY. DECEMBER 12. The Duke of Wellington arrived in Town on Thursday evening from the seat of the Duke of Buck- ingham, at Slowe. r _ Lord Tenterden sat asrain in the Court ot King's bench on Thursday ; but his Lordship appeared very weak in voice, and much indisposed. The Paris papers of Wednesday contain a report to the King hv the Minister of Finance, on a pro- position for negotiating a new loan, by funding a part of the Government floating debt, and borrowing on the vote of credit passed in the last session of the Chambers. The extraordinary expenses incurred in the departments of Foreign Affairs, of War, and Marine, during the years 1827, 111211, 18211, have rendered this measure necessary. The whole amount to be provided for by the new, loan will he nearly 4,000,000;. sterling. It is generally believed to be the intention of Government to reduce the interest on the Four per Cents. Accounts from the frontiers of Russia, to the 20th ult. state that in the interior of the Russian empire the peace does not excite any great enthu- siasm, since the conditions of the trcaiy of Adrianople have become known. Ever, the caution with which officers coming from the army express themselves re- specting thejresult of the glorious war, gives some reason to conjecture that they endeavour to conceal a certain dissatisfaction. Letters from Gibraltar, of the 5th November, say, that not only the lines of St. Roch are going to be re- eitablished, but the fortifications of Tarifa are to be repaired, and the Green Island and Algesiras; also the batteries all along the coast of Cadiz. They write from the borders of the Danube, of the 26th of November, that a report prevailed of an exchange of territory between two great Powers, Russia and Austria. An article in the German papers, dated War- saw, Nov. 17, says, " It is reported here that the Porte has offered to Russia completely to give up the Prin- cipalities, in return for an entire release from the pay- ment of the sums stipulated by the Treaty of Adrianople, as ail indemnity for the expences of the war; but it seems that Russia is not inclined to keep for itself Wal- lachia and Moldavia; and that in case this arrangement should be brought about, it would cede them to Austria, which would on its side give up the whole, or part of its Polish provinces, to be incorporated with the kingdom of Poland." From the same source we learn that letters from St. Petersburg!), of the 26th of November, bring the highly pleasing intelligence that his Majesty the Em- peror is in full convalcscence. On the 22d a favourable crisis took place in the august patient, and a profuse per- spiration had a most beneficial effect. The fever had en- tirely disappeared on the 21st in the evening, and hi « Majesty does not even keep in bed. The Rood people of Hamburgh, in order to prevent the unwelcome visit of 500 Portuguese emigrants, who were said to intend to come to that city, have pub- lished an ancient ordinance, by which strangers who travel in companies are prohibited from entering their territory. Commissioners have been appointed, as well in Norway as in Sweden, to draw up a new penal code. Some Members of both Commissions are to meet in Stockholm, and to confer together in order to draw up the new codes for both kingdoms, as nearly as possible on the same principles. A ship from Alexandria, in Egypt, arrived at Marseilles, has brought the following news, dnled the SOIh of October:—" That a great inundation of the Nile lind taken place on the 25th of October ; that two villages, with their inhabitants, had been swept away; that 250,000 nrdebs of provisions, and n quantity of indigo and cotton had been carried away by the wnters, which would hnvc inundated Alexandria, if the engineers had not turned them into another ehnnnel.— That the squadron of the Pncha was to sail for Constantinople, in consequence of orders from tile Sultan." Next year, besides the two steam- boats be- longing to the Company nt London, there is to be a third in opposition to them, to ply constantly between London and Hamburg. The trapedy of Venice Preserved was re- peated last night with increased success. The HOUSE was full in every part, and the applause bestowed on the heroine was long and loud, particularly after her farewell with Jaffier, and the concluding scene of the tragedy. Pascoe Grenfell, Esq. has been elected Go- vernor of the Corporation of the Royal Exchange As- surance, in the room of William Vaughan, Esq. resigned. The late General Garth's will was proved on Thursday; the personalty sworn under lfi, 000/. He gives to his son. Thomas Garth, the moiety of an annuity of 3,000/. payable out of the Duchy of Cornwall. We hear that the Lord Bishop of Bath and Wells intends to hold aq Ordination at Wells on the 20th j. istant. The biennial distribution of prizes took place on Thursday evening at the Royal Academy, Somerset- house. The candidates were greater in number on this occasion than in any preceding year. The medals were 0> varded by the President, Sir Thomas Lawrence, who, iii conclusion, delivered an eloquent nnd appropriate dis- course ou the subject of painting, which elicited the warmest applause. On Thursday the 3d inst. the general annual meeting and cattle show of the Bruton Agricultural Society were held in that town, at which there was a large and superior show of stock, fully maintaining the character of the former annual exhibitions of the society. At tile meeting there was a numerous andvervrespectable attendance of members, the Right Hon. Henry Hob- house, president of the society, filling the chair, supported by T. S.

Todd on Wednesday last, at Ly- mington, on the body of Harry Bran, aged ( i years, who was burnt to death in consequence of his clothes catching fire. The deceased had been locked in a room with two young children during the temporary absence of their parents, who were horror- struck, on their return, at the discovery of this, their eldest boy, reduced almost to a cinder; his dress being entirely consumed, and his bodv frightfully disfigured. Verdict, " Accidental Death." Another accident of the same description happened in the above parish a few days before, and the sufferer is in great danger. The frequent occurrence of this dreadful calamity appears to excite too little attention from those who are intrusted with the care of young children, whereas the life of many a child might be saved by a simple contrivance to keep them from the grate, by intrusting them for a time to the care of some neighbour, or lif they must be left without protection) by the extinction of fire before leaving home. On Thursday night the shop of Mr. Whitchell, of London House, Fordingbridge, was broken open and robbed of a quantity of ready- made clothes. Committed to the County Gaol:— Thomas Ed- wards and William Whitmarsh, for stealing at Romsey Infra a great coat, the property of John Jackman. Southampton. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12. It is our melancholy duty to record the death, at the age of 88, of W. Chamberlayne, Esq. \ iur late worthy Representative in Parliament, who, on Wednes- day morning, was discovered dead in his bed. Any eulogy we could pass on the deceased would be weak; suffice it to say, his death will be long felt and regretted by the inhabitants. A muffled peal was rung on Wed- nesday evening— Two candidates have already declared themselves to fill the vacancy in the Representation occa- sioned by his death. J. Barlow Hoy, Esq. of Miden- bury, Hants, who comes forward on perfectly independent principles, and who pledges himself to be a strenuous supporter of the Constitution; and J. Story Penleaze, Esq. who has contented himself with saving that he will hereafter state his principles. An active canvass has been commenced, and there appears every probability of a sharp contest. Light, who was last week stated to have been in custody on suspicion of having been concerned in the robbery at Mr. Underwood's, has been discharged for want of evidence. Died at Bursledon, on the 3d inst., aged 65, Mrs. M. Wallis, relict of the late Captain Wallis, of the same place.

Tinney, Esq. who had resigned that office, which he had held, with high credit to himself, for neaily fourteen years. It is understood that bis Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence intends honouring Mr. Watson Taylor with a visit at Erie Stoke Park during the present month. The Duke of Somerset, at his late audit at Maiden Bradley, again generously returned a. liberal sum to his numerous tenants in Wilts and Somerset. We have read vvitli more than usual interest the late critiques in the metropolitan prints on the per- formances of the pupils of the Royal Academy of Music, in which most flattering mention is made of Miss Childe and Mr. Seguin, whose vocal abilities, joined to the acknowledged excellence of the various solo instrumen- talists engaged by Mr. Lucas for his concert on Tuesday tiie 22d instant, fully warrant the anticipation of a performance that will possess great and novel attractions , to tbc uinatcuu of Salisbury and us neighbourhood. The Dorset county hall at Blandford, on Friday evening was attended by about 120 of the elite of the neighbourhood. Weippert's Band, as is always the case, wherever they play, added to the attraction of the evening. Quadrilles and Gallopades succeeded each other, nor did the votaries of Terpsichore leave their delightful amusement till an early hour. Amongst the company we observed. Lady Elizabeth and the Miss Bakers, Lady Emma and Mr. Portman, Mrs. and Miss Portman, Lady Hyde Parker, Sir J. W. Smith, and Miss Smith, Hon. Major, Mrs. and Miss Murray, Hon. and Rev. S.

Our theatre opens for the season on Wed- nesday evening, with Charles Kemble's play of Tile Point of Honour, atrfl other entertainments. The Annuals for the ensuing year are by no means of that fugitive character which such a denomina- tion imports; for they contain essays by the first literary characters of the day, while the embellishments with which they arc ornamented, present for the most part unequalled specimens of the graphic art. These elegant little works will long adorn the libraries of all persons of taste. A descriptive list of them appears in the preceding page. We can confidently affirm, that of all the annual publications sent forth at this season of the year, not one embraces, in a small compass, so much useful information as that cheap, and at the same time neatly printed work, Moon's Western Almanack. Besides the usual Calendar, it contains correct lists of the Sovereigns of Europe, English Royal Family, Cabinets Ministers, Archbishops and Bishops, Houses of Lords and Com- mons, Judges, London and Country Bankers, and Stamp List It also presents a variety of information peculiarly useful to Men of Business resident in the West of Eng- land, there being lists of all persons holding public offices in the counties of Wilts, Hants, Dorset, Somerset, Devon, and Cornwall; the times and places of holding the Assizes and Quarter Sessions; a List of the Counsel on the Western Circuit; a correct List of the Fairs and Market Days, & c. & c. & c. The cabinet of wax- work now exhibiting in Castle- street has been very much admired | by numerous parties who have visited it.

To the Editor of the Salisbury and Winchester Journal. Sin,— I feel that some apology is due o your readerst for thus obtruding myself on their notice. It is with re- luctance that I make the following statement; but it will be obvious that I have no other alternative. I am, Sir, very respectfully yours. JOHN CUNNINGTON. TO MRS. ANNE LEE. I do not hesitate to assert that the letter in the Salis- bury Journal of the 7th, is not the production of your pen. I will charitably believe, that you do not under- stand the document to which you have affixed your sig- nature, becauoe it is scarcely possible, that you can be guilty of the ingratitude, with which, as the author of that letter, you would be justly chargeable. It is a false and most malicious attack on the best and steadiest friend you have ever known since the death of your father. I now call on you to say, if, from that hour, yoit have not almost uninterruptedly received greater kindness from me than from any other human being. You know that the clothes which your husband, yourself, and your chil- dren have worn for years; the beds on which you have slept; the furniture around you, have been for the most part given to you by me, or purchased with my money. Will you point out the man, who has alleviated your distresses, supplied your wants, contributed to your sup- port, as I have done ? If you will do this, I can produce your letters, and those of your husband, down to tbc 13th November last, expressing your obligations to me in the strongest terms, and acknowledging that I have " loaded you with kindness, \ cliich you shall never be able to repay." Your whole family will also confirm this statement, every one of whom ( with the exception of my wife) has cen- sured me for my " imprudent liberality towards you. The letter to which I am replying, notwithstanding its bitterness, is another confirmation of the same. What else mean its expressions of thanks to, your sisters ? You know there are no concealed proceedings in my house, and that every act of kindness from your elder sister has either emanated from me, or has received my full and entire concurrence. I repeat, with these facts in your recollection, it is impossible that you can have written a lettei, charging me with inhumanity. The public are told that your husband wrote to me, detailing the dis- tressing particulars of the seizure of your goods. The letter itself shall refute this atrocious falsehood. It is, with your other letters, open to public inspection. Mr. Lee begins by saying, his motive for writing, is to apo- logise for his rudeness, when last at my house. He next expresses his gratitude for a recent act of kindness; he goes on to state the manner in which he is employing his time, and by and bye, in the most indifferent way, he writes thus: Three men entered our house on ' Tuesday night, and '. could have carried off the two beds and every thing else, if 1 had not put two watches and sbme other things into their hands to hold as security." lie then asks if I will send him a few pounds, knowing that, from his recent conduct towards me, I must refuse it. I did so. I knew that two wa ches would pay more than a rent of three pounds; I also knew that he had other re- sources ; but, ajjave all, I knew that you had repeatedly brought the same distresses on yourselves, by your im- prudent opposition to the wishes of your friends. When is this syste\ u to have an end ? You KNOW mc to be the last man on eaith to " arrest and paralyse the arm of benevolence." My letter in the Salisbury journal is orly a statement of facts, which every member of our family thought necessary, as well to vindicate themselves, as to preserve you from the disgrace of endeavouring to obtain money by f. rlse pretences. You appear before the public as my accuser, charging me with the most revolting inhumanity. 1 tell you us publicly, that if I wished lo establish my character for humanity, for bsacvolencc, for kindness, and forbearance, your letters and those of your husband, furnish me with the most ample means of doing so. To conclude: in the name and by the desire of all your family, I beseech you to subsist no longer on charity, but to eat the bread of industry, and of honesty ; you will then possess that comfort to which you are now a stranger, and you may possibly iegain among your relatives the esteem which you have so totally and so justly forfeited. 1 am still Your well wisher, JOHN CUNNINGTON. WARMINSTER, Dec. 10, 1829. P. S— I will take this opportunity of stating publicly, that I have received Mr. Button's explanation, which is highly creditable to him. I am satisfied that he has been actuated by the best of motives, although I regret that he was not better informed. HOME MARKETS, ( Weekly Comparative Return.)

I will take the earliest opportunity of waiting on the Electors individually, to solicit the favour of their Votes. I have the honour to he, Gentlemen, Your faithful and obedient Servant, J. BARLOW HOY'. MIDENBURY, Dec. llrt, 1829. [ 2348 To the Independent Electors of the Town and County of the Town of SOUTHAMPTON. GENTLEMEN, THE lamented Death of your late excel- lent Member, Mr. CHAMBERLAYNE, forms the most important epoch in my life, since it has decided me on offering myself to your notice, to represent you in Parliament.— Violent professions of zeal, superior talent, or purity, would ill become you and myself. I am rot altogether unknown either in the Town or County ; and the many kind expressions of interest in my favour which I have already received, induce me to hope, that I am not presumptuous in offering myself to your notice. Should I have the happiness of succeeding, I only ask to be judged of by my actions, when I trust I shall be able to meet you again fearlessly at the next General Election. I shall take the earliest opportunity of presenting myself to you individually to solicit your Votes, when I shall be very ready to state the principles on which I have acted ; and in which ( till I am convinced they are erroneous) I shall continue to act.
