Secretary PEEL obtained leave to bring in a Mil, ( lie object of which was, " to abolish all fees heretofore payable hy persons on their acquittal br oilier discharge from any criminal charge." At present a person attused of felony or misdemeanour, and uot in the custody of the gaoler, had, on his acquittal, to ( lay a fine of 13s 4d. to the Clerk of the Peace ; 2s. to the Crier of the Court.; and, what was more extraordinary, on every traverse, 12s. to the Jury, ' the proposed bill, the Right Hon. Gentleman stated, Would, do away Willi these tees altogether, ti'Ot'SE OF COMMONS— THURSDAY. Sir JOHN WITOTTI; SLF. Y called the attention of the house ti » the contents of a petition which he had to present from the parish of Bilston, the inhabitants of which were occupied in the iron trade. The peti- tioners stated that the manufacturers were not able to pay their bills; that the masters delayed their settle nients for a period of six weeks ; that the men were ) aid iu goods at an advanced cost of thirty per cent, that other masters gave their own notes for their wages, which was an evasion of the law ; and that 1 radesmen who took those notes for their goods, took them at an exorbitant rate of profit, say from seven to ten per Cent, more than they would for c& sli He was sorry to say that every word of this statement was true, and rattler extenuated than exaggerated. Previous to 1826, the practice of issuing these notes bad prevailed ; but it was the exception, whereas now it was the rule. He could not exactly state the cause; but it should be recollected that it was con teniporaneous with the restriction of the issue of small notes. 1' he Hon. Member concluded by in. sistipg that the payment of labour in goods had been compelled by the existing state of the currency, and the evil would be removed by a return to the measure of 1826. Mr. Hi Rims, on the part ( if Ministers, stated that the subject of the petition was one of great Im- portance, and would receive their best consideration Mr. R. GRANT gave notice, that on Monday next he should submit to the house a motion for removing the- Civil Disabilities of the Jews. Mr. Secretary PKEI, communicated to the house what his intentions were with respect to Uw Reform The extent of the compensation which it wonld be necessary to make to such persons as had vested rights to fees, he proposed should be ascertained by Commissioners. In the course of his speech, the Hon. Member gave the following information :—" In the different communications I have had with the gentlemen composing the Commission for inquiring into the practice and proceedings of Courts of Common Law, I am informed that their second Report will embrace, among many other matters, these important subjects:— First, ihe expediency of entrusting the Courts of Common Law with the process of summary and equitable powers, in order to save time, and prevent an unnecessary resort to any of the Courts of Equity. Secondly, the verification of written docu- ments before trial. Thirdly, compulsory reference trt arbitrators iu all matters of amount. The fourth point, an abridgment nnd simfrlificatian of the forms nnd language of Pleas," Mr. Peil also indicated an intention of reducing the nnmber of Commissioners in Scotland fa one, reducing the number of Judges of the. Court of Session and Barons of Exchequer, and abolishing the Admiralty and Jury Courts, jury trials being transferred to ffci Court of Session. The Marquis of BLANDFORD next brought for-, ward his proposed measure for a gcfictbl Reform in the system of Representation. The Noble Marquis's motion was for leave to bring in a Bill to restore tbe Constitutional influence of the Commons in the Par- liament of England. The motion was seconded by Sir FRANCIS BUR- DETT, and eventually negatived try a division of 160 to 67. The house then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS-^ FRIDAY. Mr. E. DAVENPORT said, on Friday, the 5th Of March, he should bring forward his motion relative to the distressed state of the country. ARMY ESTIMATES.— REDUCTIONS. The ChANcELLor of the EXCHEQUER proceeded, in a Committee of Supply, to state the total reductions which, according to their expressed intention, Minis- ters had made in the estimates about to be submitted fo the Committee— a statement which it was necessary to make upoti that occasion, in order that, before Hon. Gentlemen entered into a committee of supply, they might have before them, in a connected shape, the whole of the reductions adopted in tbe varied estimates of public expenditure fpr the current year. He had, however, one or two preliminary observations to make before stating flic plain and naked facts which he should have to lay before the House. And in the first place he felt extremely anxiofts, that in judging of the extent of tire reductions in the national establishments which it was the object of government to make, the House worth) constantly bear in mind the precise amount of expenditure Upon which those reductions were to be made; and further, that they were not reductions on estimates framed upon a plainly and admittedly extravagant scale of expendi- ture of preceding years; that they were not reduc- tions then for the first time brought forward after jyeurs of lavish and unnecessary expenditure; hut, < in the contrary, that they were submitted to parlia merit after successive periods of reduction, after repeated retrenchments, and after closc examination . ami inquiry. In corroboration of this statement he might observe that the estimates for the year 182ft were less by £ 200,000 than those of the year preced- ing; and that the estimates of 1828 were less than those of flic year before by about £ 500,000 ; making • In the last two years a reduction of nearly £ 700,000 upon the estimates. There was another observation which he was desirous of stating, that was, that in forming an opinion of the value and amount of the reductions, Hon. Gentlemen should hear in mind that they must not consider thern in reference to the whole amount of the estimates for tbe maintenance of mir establishments, ( army, navy, & c.) which were in the last year £ 17,600,1 00; for if the House were jto imagine that to be the sum on which Ihe whole of ( the reductions were made, it woul. l come to a very , eripncous conclusion on the subject of the pitoportion .• and . relative value existing between the reductions ; and th-' vt portion of our expenditure with which it was , in the, power of government to deal in making them. • Of thatsuu of £ 17,600,000 a great part was expendi- ture on account of services long gone by, and not on aaccuiint of pwwnt services; and the claim for pay- ments of this nature were in fact rather in the form of - a demand on the honour and good faith of the country tfcan as a matter connected with existing or future exigencies,- wikh we might regulate according < to our pleasure undef the dictates of expediency. •'. The country could not get rid of sucb demands - without a direct breach of honour and good faith . towards . the parties, and . without departing from that 6trict sPflseof sational justice which should distinguish , the. proceedings of the House of Commons. If, then, we deducted from tiie ;& t7; 000; 000, which constituted • the amount of the estimates fur the preceding year, • tlnit portion of the expenditure wlhlicli was caused by the satisfaction of the daims alluded to, we should ie& ve a suocvlittle more than jfl2,000,000, upon and till reference towhich the reductions of the present year could fairly be calculated. The Right llon-' Gentieuiap then entered upon the • proposed reductions, awmtkig the House that the gnws - reduction was tiie - result of continued, anxious, arid most mature consideration, entered into with the sincere desire of making every diminution in tine pub- lic expenditure which was compatible with Site safety , of rlliefWWtry » fld the maintenance of the . establish- ments Bficessatr. y to the attainment of . that object. ' The first estimate . was thai which formed the subject • of that evening's discussion, and from which a reduc- tion had lieen marie of itlmni £ 213; 000 as. coiRpKrod with tiie expenditure of the preceding y/ a- r. The . amount of the Army Estimates for 1820 was, in rot/ nd numbers, £ 6,390,000; the amount of the usti- nlates for the present year being ( alsoan round , mmi- ; ibers) £ 6,100,0( 10. Upon the Army Extraorrtinarics it had been found possible, by strict watchfulness and ' careful superintendence, to secure a diminution of . fl'tfOjOOO on the vote of last year. The Militia K* ti- formed the third vote for branches of military j service, aud upon tbcm it was found practicable, by the close and a* rw « ite investigation of the Right Hon. Secretary at War, to effect reductions to the amount of above £ 65.000. In the Commissariat Department it would be found that the reductions amounted to nearly £ 25,000, making the total reductions on . account of the grants for the support of tie army £" 153,146 as compared with the expenditure of 1820 ; < ind leaving the whole sum of our expenditure for the three branches of military force, £ 7,366,000. Tak ng, therefore, Ihe army estimates, extraordinaries, and militia estimates of the year, they would not only pe fo » . » d ' ess Hiao the military expenditure of many preceding years, but even lower in amount than any one estimate of a like kind that had been brought forward since 1794. With reference to the Ordnance Estimates, they had been previously tnost minutely canvassed, and every ingenuity of reduction prac- tised. In consequence, the present amount of reduc- tion was proportionately less than upon other branches of service— it was limited to a sum of £ 29,000. With respect to the expenditure of the Navy, the saving as compared with last year would amount to a sum of £ 273,000, withiii a few pounds. As to the Miscella- neous Estimates, it was more difficult to make large and immediate reductions than upon others, because in them were included public works now in progress, which parliament had already sanctioned, and that we were under the necessity of abandoning those undertakings in an unfinished state or of sustaining the expense of their completion. Besides, in this department reduction was in some degree less prac- ticable, because, in the preceding year, with a view to make every possible saving in point of Expenditure, there wbre balances left on account of tbe miscellane- ous estimates, which must be now paid ; but making allowance for these deductions, the reduction on the miscellaneous estimates this year would amount to £ 276,000. Taking the whole estimates of the year, then, the total amount of reduction that would appear in the estimates was £ 1,031,985. In conclusion, the Right Hon. Gentleman said he hoped the course adopted would afford satisfactory proof of the disposition of government to go heartily to work upon tlutt reduction iir the public expendi- ture, to which Ministers felt themselves pledged from the very first moment of their coming into office, and the tteccssity of which they had acknowledged by calling for a resolution of the house for the appoint- ment of a finance committee, with a view to the diminution of the weight of the various establishments of the country. He had already mentioned the savings upon the several estimates of the present year, and their gross amount; but in estimating the reductions in the expenditure of this as compared with the last year, it was necessary to add that there had been a practical savitig by the reduction of interest, on Exchequer bills and other1 matters con- nected with the management of the public debt) to the extent of £ 180,000, in this year's expenditure. If, in addition to this item, Other reductions made in the Treasury department, to the amount of £ 50,000, were taken into account, it would appear that we had certainly relieved ourselves from a charge ( as regard- ed public expenditure) of little short of £ 1,300,000, in the present as Compared with the last year. As his object in addressing the house was merely to state the facts of the case for general observation, it was not necessary that he should add more, having already mentioned the amount of reduction upon each estimate, and the aggregate saving upon the whole. The items forming the total reduction in round numbers are as follow : Reductions in the Army Estimates... .£ 213,000 Extraordinaries 150,000 Militia Estimates .. 65,000 Commissariat 25,000 Ordnance Estimates 29,000 Navy ditto.... 273, OO0 Miscellaneous ditto BRIDGNORTH.

ISO, 000 . 50,000 £ 1,261,900 Mr. HUME contended thftt a reduction of two millions might easily have been made in the Army and Ordnance Estimates; and he had no doubt by a diligent review of the whole expenditure a saving of £ 6,500( 000 might be made, which; added to the surplus revenue of £ 2,500,000, would leave iitt ample remainder of £ 8,000,000 for the public service. He should certainly propose a reduction of 20,000 men from the army. Lord ALTHORP was of opinion that the propos- tl reductions, though greater than he had expected, were in the present situation of the country far from sufficient, and that they would be of no effectual avail to the people. Without a great diminution of taxation there could be no substantial relief. Sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL expressed himself of the snme opinion; and believed it impossible that the Country could bear its present establishments. Mr. W. HoiifoN contended that the disbanding so large a proportion of the army, and throwing them back upon a population, so many of whom were at the lowest rate of wages, and so many others out of employment altogether, would only increase the evil such a reduction must necessarily add to the pressure upon the labouring classes of the country. Mr. A. BARING feared that these reductions would only serve to cover, the deficiency within the year; he cpuld not therefore look forward with any reasonable hope of an amelioration of the condition of the country from a redaction in the taxation. Mr. MABERLY called upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer to state his opinions on the subject of taxation.- He considered that the contemplated reductions were not carried so far as the exigencies of the country demanded; many of the departments were capable of much further diminution — Mr, FER6USSON and Mr. W SMITH also expressed them selves disappointed in the nature of the reductions proposed. Sir H. HARDINCE then proceeded tobring forward the Army Estimates in detail, and concluded by moving that a force of 88,448 men, exclusive of those employed by the East India Comi> any, be granted. Col. DAVIS moved as an amendment, that the estimates should only be taken for three months, to give time for a committee to inquire further into the subject.— Mr. llomiousE seconded the proposition Tbe CHANCELLOR of the KXCIIKQUKU, in reply to Hon. Members, said, that any statement at that moment Of the particular purpose to which the pro- posed saving tftlght ultimately be applied, wotild tend to aggravate the di- tress it was intended to alleviate by leading to mischievous speculations in the trade and manufactures of the country. He would, how- ever, take the earliest possible opportunity of inform Ing the house on the subject. Lord PALMERSTON was not disposed to think it practicable at present to reduce the military estab- lishment lower thari had been proposed by govern- ment. The house at length divided on Colonel Davis's amendment, which was negatived by 225 to 93. It again divided on a motion by Mr. Hume to reduce the number of men to 76,164, which was rejected by 167 to 57. The original resolution was then agreed to, and the house adjourned.

In the House of Commons, on Thursday last, Mr; PEEL introduced a Bill to regulate the Law respect- ing the payment of Fees by the public to persons jiolding patent offices ; and in doing so took occasion to announce the intentions of Government as to the future administration of justice in Wales, as follows " The next head to which he wished to direct the notice of the house was one which bad excited great attention both in the house and tlie country. He meant the separate and iocal jurisdiction of the Welsh courts and judges. It was considered that the time had arrived when the judicature of Wales must be assimilated with that of the rest of England. He trusted that" he should be able to satisfy many honourable gentlemen that this measure could be adopted without in any way trenching on the dignity or independence of Wales, or in any way affecting Ihe due administration of justice in that country. He conceived that the time Had now arrived for facilitating the administration of justice by the aboli- tion or amendment of those institutions which it was found did not tend to that object. It was desirable to see whether assimilating the courts in England and Wales would not tend to that end, and whether the people of the latter country would not be bene- fitted by such a change. He iriteridtd to propose { hat the English system sliould be introduced. At present there were four judicial districts in that country; each of which Itblds d separate aiid inde- pendent jurisdiction: There wef£ fiisd eight jiulgei for the administration' of justice in that coiintr'y ; and those courts causes of, all kinds could be deter- mined. The judges tould hold other ( iffices with their judicial appointment, and could practise as barristers in any other courts in the country than those over which they preside, Indeed it is the" custom for each of them to attach himself to a circuit, on which he practises as a barrister, and all of them practise in the courts of Westminster- Hall. Another circumstance attends the present system of Welsh jurisdiction. Each of these judges can have a poli- tical as well as a judicial character. They are the only judges in the united kingdom who can hold seats in the House of Commons. At present, indeed, there is only one Welsh judge in that house, and he ( Mr. Peel) was sure that a more independent and Upright man than that lion, member did not exist, and his observations could not in any way apply to him. But he ( Mr. Peel) was decidedly of opinion that it was much more consistent tvith the dignity and independence of the scat of justice to separate entirely the political from tlie judicial character. He also thought that it would do considerable good to put a stop to the . present system of always going the same circuit. He had no reason to doubt the impartiality and integrity of the gentlemen tvho at present held the offices of Welsh judges ; but he conceived that associations and general attachments would grow upon the minds of most men who were in the habit of presiding at the same circuit without their being at all awSire of it, and without, perhaps, its influencing their minds to an act of injustice which might throw a doubt upon the fair and impartial administration of justice. It was improper that any feeling should be mixed up vfifh the judicial office which Could in any way throw a doubt upon it. It was, therefore, the duty of parliament to adopt, such measures and alterations in the administration of justice in that country as should remote all doubt as to the administration of the taw, as well as uphold ' the dignity and independence of the judicial office. ' He had no reason, as he said before, to doubt the impartiality of the present Welsh judges; but the cihjumstalnces of the times called, he conceived, for the alteration which he had mentioned. There was one point, however, to which it was, perhaps, advis- able to call the attention of the house. The advocates for a separate system of Welsh judicature had ques- tioned whether the present system of civil action in that country was not superior to that at present in force in England. It was stated that the expense was less, and that the plan— and especially that part relative to the recovery of debts— was most excellent. If stich were the case he ( Mr. Peel) would say there could not only be no objection to preserve that system there, but even to adopt it in this country He could have no objection to the preservation those institutions which were found to procure ready and cheap administration of justice. He would say abolish all those institutions which had outgrown the views for which they were intended, but by all means preserve those which really fulfilled the objects for which they were intended. Alt that he wished to procure by any change which might he proposed was the administration of justice more expeditiously and economically than hitherto. He had no wish to deprive them of any advantage which they might at present possess, but, On the contrary, to add to them. It was his wish only to abolish such offices or institutions as prevailed in Various parts of the country, which were not necessary to the due ad- ministration of justice, and to abandon all such cus- toms as were not found useful to that end. The next subject to which he wished to direct the atten- tion of the house was the number of judges in the Courts of law at Westminster. The house Was pro- bably aware of the great increase of business in the courts of law. It was the opinion of the commission- ers appointed to inquire into those courts, that an addition should be made to the number of the judges. They did not think that it would be neces- sary to make any addition to the number of judges generally presiding in those courts. They were of opinion that four judges was the proper number to sit in a court of justice. They had recommended that an addition of one judge in each of the three oourts should take place. Thu9, instead of one of the judges being generally taken out of the court for the purpose of taking bail, & c. one could always attend for that purpose, and at the same time the number to constitute a full court would be present. It would be for the house to say whether any such addition should take place in the number of the judges. This addition to the number of the judges would be amply sufficient for the Welsh circuits in case the abolition of the present system should meet with the approval of parliament. It Was believed that this increase of the number of judges would not be attended with any additional expense, as a great saving would be made by abolishing the office of Welsh judges. The present amount of the salaries paid to the Welsh judges was £ 9800. And it might be well to inform the house that in the last appoint- ments to the Welsh judgeships the persons who received them were informed that, in Case of parlia- ment decreeing it necessary to alter or abolish these appointments, no compensation would be given. He repeated, that a sum of £ 9800 would be saved by this abolition, and this would pay the salaries of two new judges.''

Dis- tress of the Country, NELSON Was the fifth son of the Rev. Edmund Kelson, Rector of Kurnham Thorpe, in Norfolk, by Catherine, daughter of Maurice Suckling, Rector of Barsham, in Suffolk, and was born at Bnrnham Thorpe 011 the 29th of September, 1758. The limits of a newspaper would not admit even the shortest detail of Nelson's splendid achievements; indeed, they are chronicled in the hearts of his countrymen, and will survive as long as the annals of our nation ; and the present lines are extracted from an ably written memoir of our great naval hero in one of the most interesting works of British history. " The constitution of Nelson's mind was peculiarly Adapted to the naval profession. To a love of enter- prise, a zeal for maritime knowledge, and a hardihood of intrepidity, which, even in the honourable service he so highly adorned, has never been surpassed, he joined an integrity of purpose, a disdain of every sordid action, an insatiable thirst for glory, which could hardly fail to raise him to the height of his ambition. Every step of his progress from infancy to age w as marked by some circumstance that gra dually advanced the two great objects for which only ' he seemed to live, and for which lie bravely died : the first Was the love of Ills country ; the second, the attainment of personal distinction. Ar dent in pursuit of knowledge, more ardent still for renown, he was a volunteer for every service of danger or difficulty. He lost no occasion of gain- ing reputation; and his life became 1111 almost con- slant scene of activity and exertion, every exploit being but the prelude to another. Many striking expressions are recorded of Nelson's early years, which shew that he had a settled purpose of out- doing all the achievements of his naval predecessors. The " common notion of sailors, that one Briton is a match for three Frenchmen, was deliberately adopted into his creed, and, calculating upon the advantage as the short and easy road to fame, he resolved upon enterprizes heretofore deemed impracticable. He Cheerfully set his life upon the cast— 1 Victory or Westminster Abbey !' was his favourite war- cry. « Nelson was determined to succeed in whatever he undertook. When he attacked the bear upon the icc, while a youngster, on the Frozen Ocean, and when afterwards, as admiral, lie bore down upon the French squadron at the Nile, this was the loadstar that guided him to conquest. On beholding the gallant ships of the enemy, Captain Berry, in an rcsfacy of delight, exclaimed : ' If w e succeed, what will the world say?' ' There's no if in the case,' replied Nelson : ' that we shall succecd is certain ; who may live to tell Ihe story is a very different question.' His personal valour sometimes rose to enthusiasm, as when, with only his boat's crew, he fought the Spanish commodore hand to hand in Cadiz bay; or when, on St. Valentine's day, he boarded two of their ships of the line ; yet even then it was regulated by a steady sense of duty ; his was flot a blind physical courage: he knew and felt the danger, but his self- possession never deserted hiin. At Copenhagen, during, as lie often declared, the hottest engagement that be had ever witnessed, the ( ire of the Danish batteries was doing terrible execu- tion on hoard our ships, when a shot struck the Elephant's mainmast close to him—' Warm work,' said Nelson to the officer with whom he was pacing fhe deck : ' this day may be the last to many of us in a moment — but mark me,' said he, stopping short at the gangway,—' 1 would not be elsewhere for thousands.' Soon after this, Sir Hyde Parker became exceedingly anxious for Nelson's critical position, and made the recal signal. This being reported, Nelson, humorously putting the glass to his blind eye, said,' I ean't see the signal;' and directed that for close action to be kept flying. Returning to England, worn down by the Unceasing anxiety and fatigue of a two years' cruise and ehase of the French fleet, he had scarcely arrived at Mcrton, his beloved retreat near London, to enjoy a short repose, when he was roused nt five in the morning by Captain Blackwood, on his way to Ihe Admiralty with dis- patches. Nelson instantly exclaimed, ' I am sure you bring me news of the enemy's fleet, and I shall vet give M. Villcneuve a drubbing.' In three weeks from his landing lie was again at Portsmouth; and on resuming the command, Lord Barham, who was then at the head of the Admiralty, presented the navy- lint to him, desiring him to choose his officers. • Choose yourself, my lord,' said Nelson; ' they are all actuated by the same spirit; you cannot choose wrong.' When the day of trial came, 110 commander was ever more promptly obeyed than Nelson ; none more firmly supported, nor more devotedly followed. There was a secret charm in his voicc and manner, which inspired his men with flic same enthusiastic valour that fired his own bosom; and whether they were called upon to endure privation, to struggle with the fury of ( he elements, to pursue a superior enemy, or to engage hiin in fight, the spirit of Nelson seemed to breathe in the hearts of his crew, who regarded hirn with a faith little short of idolatry. O11 the last day of his life, at Trafalgar, his farewell te Captain Blackwood, as well as oilier circumstances of his conduct, shewed a remarkable presentiment that he should receive his death- wound in the approaching conflict; yet, under this foreboding, the cool deliberation witb which he made his dispositions, nnd watched every movement of the enemy, while exposed to a hail- storm of bullets, proved Ihe imper- turbable intrepidity of his heart. When borne from the deck, the grief of his followers served but lo whet their courage: anil as he descended to the cockpit, he seemed to have cast his mantle upon the gallant Hardy, his captain, who conducted the opera- tions of the fleet with such ability, that all were unconscious of Nelson's fate till tlie victory was secured." Chivalry scarcely possesses a more brilliant ex. ample of heroism and self- devotion than stands recorded in the example of the gallant Nelson, whose character forms an inimitable memoir in Mr. Lodge's Collection of the Portraits and Lives of Persons eminent in British History ; and wc refer our readers to the advertisement in Ihe first page of our Journal, for the plan of this great work, which, like Ihe Waverley Novels, is now republishing in the cheap and popular form'of Monthly Numbers, in accordance with the universal expansion of the public mind, which claims, and by its patronage enables, the pub- lication of our greatest works at moderate prices. We alluded, last week, lo the probability that, through a defect iu Sir John Pakington's will, il would he declared invalid. We now understand thai that part of the will which deviseslhe West wood and other estates, ( worth £ 0,000 or £ 7,000 a- ycar) is illegal, and that Sir Julin consequently died intestate as to those estates, which devolve in equal shares to his co- heirs; Miss Pakington, the Baronet's sister, and John Somerset Russell, Esq. of Powiek Court, near Worcester, the son of another sister, who died some yearsago. It is understood, that no opposition will be offered to those legal proceedings which will be necessary upon the occasion. Sir John ( who made his own will) bequeathed the properly lo Mr. Russell's grandson ( not yet in esse), when lie attained Ihe age of twenty- fice, but as the age should have been limited to twenty- one years, the devise was bad in law. Few persons will re- gret that such an error was committed.— IVorcester Journal. The distress of the country increases.— While the " wisdom" of Parliament ranges over the globe to find subjects of debate, and topics of political sym- pathy and excitement, the industrious population at home languish under the pressure of calamity that ought to forestall and engross Ihe attention of our representatives and the anxiety of our rulers. In the mean time accounts of the difficulties and embarrassments which beset the country pour in upon us from all sides, nor have we space for the insertion of one half of them. We are not exelu. sionists in charity, but we do not admire that erratic benevolence which circumnavigates the world to find out materiel for the exercise of the generous feelings of our nature, while our countrymen perish around us, and cry for our protection in vain. We should have thought the first and imperative duty of Parliament when they were, afler too much delay, called together, was to inquire into, and relieve, the distresses of the country. No^- it could not be; for it was discovered within the walls of Parliament that the distress was only partial, and confined to some districts, though every body out- side those walls imagined that it was general. This is the first great discovery which has resulted from the assembling of the " Great Council." What others will follow it is not easy to anticipate. Mr. Hume and Mr. Hobhouse, with other equally cele- brated advocates of the pi^ iular cause, have assisted Ministers in making, this discovery, nod, 110 doubt, the public will evince their grateful sense of the patriotic sagacity which they have displayed. Cer- tainly the Duke of Wellington owes much to the twenty- seven " champions of liberty," who, by rallying round his banners iii the hour of need, saved him from one of the most sudden and signal defeats which the wilful obstinacy of a Minister ever provoked. Perhaps, however, it would have been both more manly and more dignified in his Grace not lo have risked such a crisis at the outset of the Parliamentary campaign, especially as it could have been avoided altogether by making the King's Speech the vehicle of truth—( ruth us lo the distresses of the country arid the sufferings of the people— truth, which is the best substitute for eloquence, or its most enduring ornament. But all true English feeling has not perished from Ihe House of Commons. There is yet within its walls, we trust, what will preserve the vitality of its Representation. As an instance refreshing lo the miud amid more than ordinary complaisance to power and desertion of the people, appears the steady, vigorous, uncompromising conduct of the Marquis of Blaiidl'ord. He was at his post when a subject more important thau ( be vague and illusory statements iu ( he lloyal Speech was to be entered upon. Yes— when the older of the day for the House going into a Committee of Supply was read on Monday night, the Marquis of Blaudford was prepared to perform his duly lo bis country, al- though the Whig benches were nearly deserted, and the Treasury did not thiuk it necessary to retain their forces in the field. It was the custom of our ancestors, previously to voting supplies, to demand a redress of grievances. This custom had become nearly obsolete— the courtesy of modern days had superseded the stern virtue of antiquity. It was perhaps the barbarism of our forefathers that made them exercise a jealous vigilance over the public purse, and refuse the voting supplies upon either the solicitations or threats of a Minister until grievances were redressed. I11 their simplicity they believed that the power of the purse conferred all other power, and therefore they were rude and unaccommodating enough to refuse to fill the coffers of Government until they vindicated the rights of the people, lu modern times this ' vantage ground of tbe public cause has been generally surrendered without a struggle, in consequence of soma cour- teous " arrangement" in accordance with the tem- per of an age of polished innovation. The Marquis of Blaudford, who, as a Member of the House of Commons, appears to be more conversant with the ancient history of Parliament than its modern code of manners, remained, as we have stated, at his post, to move an amendment on the House going into a Committee of Supply. I11 doing so, lie used the old- fashioned but very expressive language, that " he- felt himself called upon in duty to oppose in limine the granting of one shilling of supply to his Majesty." Why ? His reasons were—" the distresses of Ihe country were so great— the cries of the people for relief so loud, and the promises of his Majesty's Ministers so unsatisfactory." This language was certainly lucre energetic than polite; and, in a spirit equally congenial with Ihe character of our ancient " gotliic"" institutions, he moved, as an amendment, " that this House will not vote any supply or estimate until the grievances of the people be taken into consideration, and relief for their distress be granted." A proposition so contrary to modern practice, and built on such obsolete pre- cedents— precedents only to be found in the " old almanack" of history, and not jit all admitted among the " rules and regulations" of Ihe refined patriot- ism of modern days, absolutely astonished the Chancellor of fhe Exchequer. He gave utterance to that astonishment by saying, " he did not come to the House prepared for any such amendment as the present. The Noble Lord had certainly adopted a novel course towards the House, and one which was not likely to produce a very favourable effect on the public generally." Now, when the Chancellor of the Exchequer called this a novel course, he must have meant it as such, in the sense in which it has been said that " all novelty is but oblivion"— for it was so ancient, and so long disused, that it had pretty well gone out of Parliamentary remembrance, and, like a revived old fashion iu dress, returned upon us with all the freshness and originality of invention. The Chancellor of the Exchequer bad, however, a more secure protection -. than in the " novelty" of the practice against the constitutional rudeness of such a proceeding. What, was that?— Ihe paucity of numbers in the House! Will it be believed here- after, that, at such a crisis. as this— a crisis of un- exampled national suffering and calamity— the desertion of their posts by the Representatives of the people was the best security of the Minister? The Chancellor of the Exchequer met the amend- ment, when argument was wanting— when appeals to polite usages and complaisant customs failed.— by declaring that no division could take place, there were not sufficient Members io constitute a House. Yet there were enough to make a Com- mittee of Supply and to rote away the money of the people! and often have millions been voted, and the most important business of the country trans- acted, by as small a number as were then present. The reply of the Marquis of Blandford to the ob- servations of the Minister of Finance deserves to be remembered, and, at the next general election, it ought to be recalled to the particular attention of every Member of Parliament by his constituents. The Chancellor of fhe Exchequer had alluded to an arrangement respecting an amendment which the Ministers had received notice would be moved in ihe Committee of Supply on Friday. " I ain no party," said the Noble Marquis, " to any arrange- ment of business on Friday. If Hon. Gentlemen are not ill their places it is their fault, not miue. Here 1 am, and here 1 am determined to remain, and do my duty." This was an answer worthy of the spirit of the best days of the English House of Commons— those days associated- with Ihe proudest recollections — when stern, unyielding, and intrepid public in- tegrity, laid the foundation of that national grandeur and prosperity which the courteous and suppliant patriotism of later times had not the virtue to pre- serve— those days when the dread of being sup- posed to " embarrass Ihe measures of Government" did not shake from its firm purpose the honest reso- lution of the Representatives of the people. emplary weaver, enacting wise laws for the pro- tection of bis commerce, keeping ( like a faithful sentinel) his door shut against foreign interlopers, and rendering his children as happy as the day is long, and free as ihe rippling wave ou the Atlantic. When Congress passed the lasl tariff, there was a cvv against it from east to wesi, and from north to south, in this country. The iliiberality of our brother was the song of all the liberals. The measure was lamented in strains chaunted among Ihe potteries of Staffordshire, and re- echoed among the blanket- weavers of Yorkshire. The knife- grinders of Sheffield passed a vote of censure against the President, and calico- printers auathe- inatiied Congress. From Manchester to Paisley, DISCOVERED HOARD OF A GANG OF COINERS , t\" EXETER.— On Friday, James Jones and Margaret, his wife, were remanded for further examination, under the following circumstances:— In consequence of some information they received our active city bfiiccrs, Howard and Taylor, together with the captain- constable, proceeded yesterday ( Thursday) to a house in Garden square, North- street, where they broke open the door of a room inhabited by the prisoners, and found an iron saucepan, in which a white metal had been melted, and other materials used for casting metal; also a box, which, upon forcing it open, they found to contain, amongst several articles of wearing apparel, a quantity of counterfeit coin, in crowns, half- crowns, and shillings, nothing was heard hut tbe loud curse or the deep | to the amount of £ 47, some handkerchiefs filled with wail. We were told that the republic would be disorganized if the tariff should continue in; force only for a single year. Its longer duration was considered- a matter of impossibility. There was occasionally a laugh indulged iu by some free- trade blockhead, intended to be at the expense of the Americans, but it always evinced a sufficiency of spleen to prove that the fellow was more iu anger than i: i mirth. We kut'w from the first that the liberals were wrong and our neighbours right; therefore we had little fear of any repeal taking place merely lo gratify the manufacturers of Euglaud. Time has established the correctness of our views, and con- vinced even the opponents of the measure in the southern states that their paternal Government acted 011 wise and well- considered principles. In short, it is plain that Congress, pursuing a safe and nurturing policy, have only followed those golden rules which the Solons of this country have recently abandoned. America is rising by adhering to our former system— thai system under which the trade of Great Britain was extended and our cotton- manufactures started into existence— while we have dissipated 11 large portion of our wealth, lost a large portion of our most valuable commerce, injured our agricultural, colonial, and mining inter- ests, and reduced our artisans and labourers to beggary uud slavery under the directions of an ignorant, presuming, ami arrogant set of rogues called political economists. All our thoughts seem to have been employed in discovering new outlets for our rotten cottons at reduced prices. The question of trade has been neither more nor less than a quesliou of calico and stuff. We never bestowed a moment's consideration 011 our suffering interests at home. The Parliament appears to have been composed of a parcel of cotton- spinners, cotton- importers, and steam- loom weavers. It has been colton within and without— cotton at fhe head, ul the heart, over the eyes, and in the ears. All other interests have been sacri- ficed to the cotton interests. For this the land- owner was compelled to pay higher poor- rates and higher taxes out of diminished reuts. Ai, d ou the same principle fh^. wool- grower at home was sacri- ficed to the wooUgrotter abroad. The British ship- owner, for the same reason, was placed at llie mercy of the foreign ship- owner; and various other interests, involving a vast amount of, property invested, and the comforts of thousands of labour- ers, were reduced to a state of ruin. The liberals never for a moment considered that while they were '* expanding their views" ( for ftlis is the caul) they were robbing their own industrious country* men and doing themselves no good. They uever considered, that if one portion of the community suffered, the consequences would bear upon all ' he others ; nor did they reflect that it was better to keep up prices of home produce, even though the quartern loaf should be nominally dear, than reduce them at the hazard of losing the best market for their muslins, calicoes, and stuffs. Nothing of this kind was deemed worthy of consideration, and the consequences are, that one iutercst has declined after another— low prices have produced beggary, doubled the pressure ol the poor- rates, aud made the taxes much more onerous than they were in 1812.— Morning Journal. AMERICAN jPOIIICT. It is impossible to refrain from admiring the political wisdom of the legislators of the United Slates of America. Truly it may be said that the wisdom of Hie sire has descended to his illegitimate children, when lie himself is a dotard and his free sons born in lawful wedlock are a parcel of fools. In every treaty for the last ten years the Americans have overreached us; and while wc have been dreaming over theories, and wasting our substance in wild political speculations, lo the disgrace of ourselves and the ruin of our families, brother Jonathan has been watering his plants like a good husbandman, according to the usages of his ances- tors, nursing his rising manufactures, like un ex- fHisjceluimeous intelligent?. COAL SPECULATIONS IN AMERICA.— The coal mines in the United States have risen immensely in value, on account of their abundance and the convenience of the rail- ways in conveying the produce to the places of consumption on Ihe Atlantic coast. The value of the caual shares has also risen greatly. A11 excellent sort of bituminous coal is obtained at Lick Run, near the New Jersey shore. The Americans foresee that with so cheap and large a supply of coals, they will be able to manufacture bar- iron to an extent quite equal to their wants. A Grace was passed by the University of Cam- bridge, 011 Wednesday, for presenting petitions to Parliament against the clause added last Session to the Act for building and promoting the building of parish churches, which enacts, that any person who shall permanently endow a new chapel, with the approbation of the Commissioners appointed under the Act, shall have the power of nominating a Minister to the said chapel, and that the same right shall descend to his heirs and assigns for ever. A very learned and witty lady, conversing with a friend on the recent extreme severity of tiie wea- ther, with great naivete said, she " supposed the North Pole had come to return Captain Parry's visit." LONGEVITY.— The united ages of the last seven members of the Old Beuc6t Society, New port, who have paid the debt of nature, amount to llie. uiiusual number of 606 years, being an average of something more than 865 years each ; such a succession of long life in one society is somewhat rare. The following are llie names, ages, & c. of these patriarchs: Win. Felton, gardener, aged 99; John Whitmorc, hair- dresser, 92; John Owen, labourer, 86 ; Robt. Bates, wheelwright, 85; Ralph Story, gardener, 84 ; VVm Ilancox, miller, 82; Joseph Rogers, halter, 78. THE HADDINGTON MURDERS— The trial of Robert Emonil, for the murder of Mrs. Franks, and her daughter Madelina, on the 25th of October last, took place before ihe High Court of Justiciary, Edin- burgh, on Monday. The crime was clearly brought home to the prisoner. O11 the Jury returning their verdict of guilty, a checr burst from the auditory, whilst the wretched man remained unmoved. He was ordered for execution 011 Wednesday, March 17, and his body to be given over to be publicly dis- sected and anatomized. Emond is stated to be 35 years of age only. He was related by marriage to his unfortunate victims, and in his confession of his crime to a fellow prisoner shortly after his appre- hension, he assigned as his only reason for its perpe- tration that Mrs. Franks had been the means of creating feuds and quarrelling between him aud his wife. BEGGING EXTRAORDINARY.— An old woman, a native of the town of Crail, of the name of Ross, ss lio had, during tile space of at least thirty yeais, exercised her talents us a strolling beggar, and ranged the country in that capacity " from Tweed to Spey," and sometimes made excursions, in the way of business, across the border, returned lo her native place a few days ago, completely worn out with the fatigues of her long and active peregrina- tions, but with a competency which not only secures the means of comfort to herself for the rest of life, as far as she is capable of enjoying it, but with a sum of money which, at her decease, will raise the condition of a natural sou ( in whose house she now resides, to comparative wealth and independence. She executed a will some years ago in favour of her two natural sons, who were, in terms thereof, lo share the fruits of her industry betwixt them ; but, not being satisfied with the conduct of her youngest son, she cancelled that document, and executed another a few days ago in favour of Hunter, her eldest son, whereby she bequeathed to him nearly seven hundred pounds, all which she had accumulated by dint of skill and industry as a common beggar. To her other son, who resides in Dundee, she has al different times given upwards of three hundred pounds, who, without those indus. trious and parsimonious habits which so strikingly mark the character of his mother, squandered llie money, and consequently incurred her displeasure to that degree, that she has by her late will cut liini off from any share of her property. Thus it appears that the old woman has actually realised nearly a thousand pounds sterling, entirely by begging., and it is not known that she ever employed any dis- honest means to acquire it. When she arrived at her son's house in Crail, a comfortable bed and w holesome food were provided for her, of neither of which she knows the use or value. She prefers, and actually reposes her worn out weather- beaten frame 011 a quantity of straw in a distant corner of the room, and no entreaties can prevail upon her tyi renounce it.— Correspondent to rife Herald. sand, and a quantity of plaister of Paris. Securing their prize the officers immediately set oift in search of Jones and his wife, whom they found at the Oat Sheaf public- house. Taylor immediately took the I woman into custody, and held her whilst the land- lady, Mrs. Holmes, searched her and took from her pocket a packet containing four crowns, seventeen half- crowns, and seventy shillings. The other two apprehended Jones himself, but nothing of conse- quence was found upon bis person. A shopman of Mr. Kingdon proved having frequently sold Britan- nia- metal spoons to the female prisoner, and a female servant of Mr. Rowe having supplied her at different times, from the month of October last, with plaister of Paris, which she said a little boy used to make orna- ments with. Jones is the man who was detained in custody last sessions for assaulting Mr. Turner, the captain- constable, during the trial of one William Powell, better known by the Homme de guerre of " Captain Carrots," and who was then transported for a robbery from the person. Mrs. Jones was nn evi- dence in the same case for the prisoner. During their search the officers found a letter from the Convict Powell, thanking them for She ineffectual services rendered him at his trial.— Exeter Gazette. A comparative estimate is given in a Belgic paper of the quantity of meat consumed in Loudon, Paris, ar. d Brussels, in the course of the year, and of the relation of that quantity to the amount of population in these capitals respectively. The total quantity consumed in London is stated to be 189,710,0001bs. and the population being 1,225,000, each individual would consume on an average 155lbs. This is probably a greater relative consumption of animal food than is known in any other part of the world. In Paris the consumption is perhaps more accurately known than in London, and is estimated in the reports of M. de Chabrol at 61,927,444lhs. which, supposing the population to be 715,000, would allow to each individual 861bs. Two- thirds of ( his is in beef, one- sixth in mutton, a ninth in veal, afttl a fourth in pork. In Brussels the quantity of meat consumed in 1828 was 8,88S, 924lbs. which, estimating the inhabitants at 100,000, would give to each person on an average 891 lis. This would be three pounds more than in Paris, but would fall short of London by nearly a half. Gold abounds in Celebes.— The Transactions of tic Society of Batavia contain a particular memoir on the mines of gold in this island, by a functionary who examined its mountains for the purpose. A geologist would probably make many more disco- veries. But tjiere are, at least near the coasts, districts inhabited by ferocious tribes, who would throw invincible obstacles in the way of scientific research. The quantity of gold in Celebes is prob- ably prodigious. Europeans would soon explore the riches of the mountains: the islanders do not fail partially to benefit by them ; but they proceed with- out art, and never commence a mining operation without having consulted a taleaga, or diviner, who in his turn consults fhe singing of birds, and makes a sacrifice. CEMENT FOR CHINA, & C— The Journal des Connaissances Usuellcs publishes the following re- cipe as one of the best cemeuts for china, glass, & c. j Put an ounce of mastic in a sufficient quantity of spirits of wine to dissolve it; then take an ounce of isinglass, soak it in water until it is soft, and dissolve it iu brandy till it is become a strong jelly, adding afterwards an ounce of well- powdered gum ammo- niac. Put the two mixtures together in an earthen pipkin, and expose them to a gentle heat; when they are well mixed pour them into a bottle, which is to be well corked. To use fhe cement, the bottle is to be placed in hot water until it is sufficiently fluid— it is then to be applied to the fractures in the usual way In twelve hours it will set, and the mended part will becomc as hard as any other. LAMP GLASSES.— A very simple but effective pre caution is employed in Paris to prevent the breaking of lamp glasses by the sudden application of heat Before they are used, a glazier cuts or scratches the base of the glass with a diamond, and afterwards sudden heat may be applied without danger.— Literary Gazette. Last week, an old woman died at Carluke, at the advanced age of 86, who, during the last twenty years of her life, had, by a number of respectable individuals, been considered a fit object of charity, so that when coals, & c. were distributed among the poor of the village, her share was never neglected Shortly after her interment, however, a rather un expected discovery was made. The relations of the deceased, in overturning an old bed, stumbled 011 a bag, carefully rolled up in rags, which, to their astonishment, contained a bill for one hundred pounds, £ 17. 15s. 6d. in silver, as perfect as if il had been newly brought from Ihe Mint, and £ 76 in Bank notes— in all £ 193.15s. 6d. The following, among several other articles, were also discovered: 17 pieces of shirting, two pieces of fine linen, 27 pairs of stockings, 64 muslin caps, 31 handkerchiefs, a parcel of cotton cloth, a silver watch, a stone trough filled with pins, a bag full of lead bullets, several bags full of nails, besides qunntities of children's marbles, hand- balls, & c. It is needless to add, that Ihe heirs were uot more deeply amazed than highly satisfied at Iheir good fortune.— Glasgow Courier. ' ihe amount of dividends due and not demanded on the 5th of January, 1830, was £ 1,296,240. 6s 6d. and that of lottery prizes not claimed £ 1,939, mak- ing £ 1,298,179 6s.; of which there has been ad- vanced to government £ 1,193,872. 8s. leaviug iu the hands of the bank £ 104,306.18s. 6d. The amount of properly locked up in the Court of Chancery appears by a return of the Accountant- General to be as follows:— Cash, £ 1,496,337.4s. 2d.; invested in securities, £ 37,719,985. 15s. lid. arising from 9,007 accounts. Rowland Stephenson, the notorious English banker, has purchased a farm of Dr. W. Shippen, uear Bristol, on Ihe river Delaware, and entered into possession.— The purchase money, we under- stand, is 15,000 dollars. ROBBING A SCOT — A native of Scotland ( from Stirling, we believe,) not overburdened with the caution for which his countrymen are remarkable, was picked up 011 Friday, at Manchester, by a party of four megsmen ; one of whom, after having artfully drawn out of him sufficient information to form Ihe ground- work of a plot, suddenly pretended to be a countryman of his, and gave such an accouut of his family and couuexious, as convinced the canny Scot that his new acquaintance was no im- postor. The whole party, therefore, adjourned to the Balloon public- house, where they druuk pretty freely totheir betteracquaiutance, aiidsubsequently went to the Windmill, in Port- street, when the liquor the Scotchman had drank, or as he supposed some narcotic infused in it, so far overcame him, that be fell asleep; and on waking, found himself deserted by his four late friends, and also by five other friends of considerably greater sterling value, to wit, five sovereigns, which he had deposited in the pocket of his trowsers, but which had, no doubt, gone off in the company of his new acquaintances. —[ After this feat, these megstiien inay be justly- considered to be at the very top of their profession.] STATE OF THE FARMER IN 1775 AND 1830.— The following extracts are from an old pocket- book for the year 1775, in which had been entered the payments and receipts, for that year, upon a farm in an adjoining county, held under a noble duke, consi- dered as highly favouring his tenantry by a very low rental.—" The annual rent of the farm was then £ 65 ; it is now £ 200. Tithe £ 3. 10s.; now £ 20. Two poor assessments at 1 Is. 3d. each ; now eight at £ 3. 6s. 8d. each. Church assessment 7s. 6d.; now £ 3. 6s 8d. For the produce of the farm, the tenant appears to have received after the rate of from 5s. to 7s. per bushel for wheat— the price is now about the same. For oats, from 15s. to 19s. per quarter — the price is not now so high.— Beans 4s. 4d. the bushel— the same now. Hay- seeds 6s. per quarter— many were sold last spring at 5s. Wool 8s. 6d. the stone— now unsaleable at any price. Labouring man 8d. and lOd. a day, and in corn harvest a shilling— now he must have two shillings a day or he goes to the parish. DUKE OF WELLINGTON'S SPEECH.— The choicest morceau of the noble and " decided" Premier's speech is reserved for " the retail dealers"— the shop- keeping part of the nation. " Arc they in dis- tress?" 1 exclaims the Duke, in ecstacy,—" tbeywho fill every totvn, and almost Cvery village,— they are ABLE to pay large rents for fine new houses ; or is it a sign of distress, that fine new houses are built in every part of the town." Here we find this states- man adducing the greatest evil of which the people complain next to the TAXFS, and which is weighing them to the earth, as a corroboration of the prosperity of the country, namely, HIGH RENTS, and which he says too, tliey lire ABLE to pay. Has he never heard that the finest trading street in London is known by the cognomen of Banhrupt- row ? Docs it never occur to him to examine the Gazette, with its average ot forty bankrupts per week for years past? Has he never by any chance seen, 01' been informed of j the increasing and unparalleled number of insol- vencies and compromises which are, day after day, occurring in every part of the country.—" Large, fine, and high- rented houses." Aye, and high taxed too. Bur where would the most noble Duke have them reside? If they are to pay those enormous taxes which are exacted of them, they must seek those genteel situations, in this genteel age, for the sale of Iheir goods, which is most likely to effect that object, even though tbey live, like the Irish farmers, 011 butter- milk and potatoes. High- rented houses are, however, 110 proof of prosperity ; and this I be- lieve to be the first time that the trading portion of the people of England have ever been told in so many words, that their not living in such stews as those of St. Giles's and Wapping affords a manifesta- tion of their general prosperity.— liath Journal. Our legal friends will be glad to see with what spirit and regularity the publishers of " Petersdorff's Abridgment of Cases argued and determined in the King's Bench, Common Pleas, & c.'* bring out new volumes of this great work. They have just com- menced the publication of the twelfth, with an intimation that the whole will certainly be completed early in the year, and they confidently believe that the work will not exceed fourteen volumes. Philip Perry, Esq. who died the other day at the house of his sister, in Lower Berkeley- street, left behind him personal property to the amount of £ 250," 000, for which probate has been granted in the Prerogative Court 1 » his executor. Mr. Perry's freehold estates are estimated at nearly £ 100,000, in addition to the above. He was a branch of the great ship- builders at Blackwall. Mr. .11KVT. L.— Colioan, in his" Random Records," gives the following anecdote of the witty barrister, whom he numbers among his early friends:— One day, Jekyll observed a squirrell in Column's cham- bers iu the usual round cage, performing the same operation as a man iu the treadmill, and looking at it for a minute, exclaimed " Ah, poor devil, he is going the Home Circuit.'" JOHN BULL'S GULLIBILITY.— The most extra- ordinary instance perhaps 011 record of the gullibi- lity of Londoners,- is to be found in the famous story of the Bottle Conjuror. A fellow gave out that be would creep into a quart bottle. Tile feat was to be performed on a public theatre, without trick or sleight, in an honest bona fide way. It might have been supposed that the extravagance of the absurdity would create a laugh, bof ill what country under beaten could sueh a proposal have been taken in earnest? Long before the hour for the curtain's rising; the house was crammed to suffocation. At length the hoaxer made his appear- ance. F^ very eye was opened, every month was shut—" Ladies and gentlemen," said the wag, " I have searched all the taverns in London for a quart bottle, but to no purpose ; however to console yon for your disappointment, if you* ll come back to- morrow night, I'll go into a pint bottle." The fellow of course bolted immediately 011 finishing his address; and the audience, instead of laughing at themselves aud one another, actually destroyed the whole of the interior of the theatre, because a man five feet ten in his stockings had promised them that he would creep into a quart bottle, and had not kept his word ! PLEASURE OF BEING A BOROUGIIMONGER.— After all, then, there is nothing like one's own rotten borough! How enviable is the situation of him who is elected in the servants' hall by his own domestics! He has 110 long preliminary toil and trouble to undergo, in personally soliciting hundreds of vulgar persons for their patronage, and haggling with them about the price, or endeavouring to overcome their surliness, and adapt himself to their opinions. He has not to encounter, perhaps for a fortnight toge- ther, and that, too, with an unruffled placidity of temper, the insults of the " rank- scented many," and the no less vexatious badgering of other candidates. When he gets to town, be is not annoyed by tbe jealous surveillance of his constituency, nor bored by the visits of his country friends, their importuni- ties, requests, and discontents. He is not obliged to spend whole mornings on stupid committees, nor to forego his dinner by attending the House to present petitions or superintend county bills. Neither must lie of necessity quit a pleasant party, or break in upon his rest, in order to be present at the division, lest he should be called over the coals, when he gets home, for neglecting the duty. lastly, he is not in continual dread lest ministers should dissolve, and send him back again, to go over the same labour, misery, and expense. Very different, indeed, is the situation of him who is the representative of half a dozen of his own dependents. On the day of election, after breakfast, he sends for his steward, who is the returning officer, and gives him instructions; by dinner time he is a member of Parliament. He enters the House as free as air, and is the most independent gentleman in it; for he is neither ham- pered by pledges, nor haunted by visions of county meetings and hustings' retribution.— Sydenham. WELLS OF SALT AND OF FIRE IN CHINA.— A French Missionary, M. Imbert, has forwarded to Europe a description of certain wells of salt and fire, at Ou- Tong- Kiao Kialingfou, and at Ise- Lieou- Tsing, in China, which rank among the most singu- lar natural phenomena 011 record. ' I'lie wells are perforations about five or six inches in diameter, extending to the depth of as much, in one case, us 3,000 feet, ordinarily from 15 to 1,800, in solid rock; from which, in the one ease, water is drawn bymeans of a hollow bamboo and the labour of oxen, which yields from one fifth to one fourth of its weight of salt, aud iu the other, an inflammable gas is dis- charged in large quantities, which serves to boil the pans iu which the salt is prepared, as well as to supply the means'of illumination. The method by which these wells or cylinders are made in the rock is by attaching a steel head, weighing about three or four hundred pounds, by acord, to a beam, which has a motion 011 a horizontal axis, when, by depress- ing the opposite end of the beam, and suddenly dismissing it, the steel head, which moves up and down in a stone cylinder, pounds the rock beneath, and the perforation so made being properlymoisten- ed, the pulverized rock, in the shape of mud, lodges above the steel head, and is, when necessary, drawn out and rejected. At least three years are required fo make one of these wells, though sometimes when the rock is good, the workmen can perforate 2 feet in 2t hours.— Monthly Magazine. The nightingale's visit to this country is of such short duration, that his habits are but little known, except by those few persons who have succeeded in their attempt to keep them in a state of confine- ment. It appears, however, that a moderate degree of heat is sufficient for them ; and that their song is not impeded bytherigoursof winter. A nightingale eats his weight in a day, which consists of chopped egg and undressed meat cut very fine, but his great- est peculiarity is, that at the usual periods of his migration lo and from this country, ( although in confinement) the instinctive impulse prevails, and his endeavours to lake wing are unceasing. But this restlessness continues only for a short period, the time probably, which in a wild state would be occupied in preparing for, and performing his journey: after this, he subsides into his former state of ease, and apparent happiness, and resumes his song. The nightingale is a shy and retiring- bird, but peculiarly light and graceful in his move- ments. Notwithstanding the extraordinary in- clemency of tbe season, there are now at Wilton House, near Taunton, two beautiful male birds, who begin warbling Iheir wild notes before tbe break ol day, and continue singing- at intervals until the family retire to rest. George. Keith, the man who robbed the Mint a short time since, has been apprehended and brought to town. He is stated to have been captured at Calais. A LONG DIP.— An accident lately happened to a commercial gentleman, who, in the course of his business, had occasion to enter a soap and candle manufactory in Change Alley— which, as it has been unattended with serious consequences, may he re; peated for amusement. The gentleman alluded to was descending some steps adjoining the melting vat, when his foot unluckily slipped, and he was precipitated into the agreeable liquid. A workman, who was by, seized him as he arose, but, from the unctuous nature of his covering, he was again con- signed to the vat. A second pull extricated the sufferer in the shape of a tremendous candle, the whole outward man being encased with tallow.
