Thfir Lordships met pursuant to adjournment this tiny, when a long discussion took place on the INTERNAL STATE OF THE COUNTRY. Earl STANHOPE rose for the purpose of moving for a Committee of the w hole House to inquire into the causes of the existing national distress. The Koble Earl drew a very gloomy picture of the condi- tion of Ihe country; it appeared to him, he said, rapidly advancing) owing to the pressure of distress, 1o a national bankruptcy. He cbhsidered, moreover, that it was hastening to a general disorganization, nnd that at no distant period it would end in the totai dissolution of the body politic. His Lordship con- cluded by moving that a general inquiry should take place, and that witnesses should be examined at their Lordship' bar on the subject.— The motion was sup- ported by the Duke of RICHMOND, the Earl of ELDON, and the Karl of ITABNOR. Viscount GODERICH, in opposing the motioni contended that the plan of inquiry which the Noble Earl proposed was not the proper mode for investi gating the subject. He ( Lord Gode. rich) did not think it impossible for him to point out to the house some measures by which relief could he afforded. The Noble Lord thetl entered into a review of the currency question, and subsequently nf the state of taxation. In reference to the formert he maintained that it was totally impossible the Bank Charter should he renewed, unless the Rank of England were ready to admit greater facilities to establishments through- out the country. It was idle to expect that the Bank could supply the w hole currency of such a country ; it could not do it; their plan, therefore, must be eventually altered. The Scotch Banks were much better managed, and, more recently still, the Pro- vincial Bank of Ireland. Were these improvements brought nearer home, the vacuum in the circulating medium would soon be filled up. The Bank of Eng- land, as now existing, knew nothing of the proceed- ings of the other Banks in the supplies of notes. The Country Bankers were likewise ignorant of the general issues, and the government were of course equally in the dark, and obliged to guess upon matters which never could be rightly judged, except upon a strict data of facts. He merely threw out these suggestions at present, for, at' all events, iti a short time, the banking system of the country must he changed and put upon a safe footing for the future, so as, in a great degree, to obviate over issues at one time, and coercive restrictions at another, which were so dan- gerous for the conmiuniity.— With respect to taxation, the Noble Lord expressed his firm belief, from what bad occurred during the time he formed part of the government, that a considerable remission of taxation might take place at this moment without the least permanent risk to the revenue. Taking the contem- plated reductions in the estimates of the year at £ 1,300,000, he would add to it £- 2,471,000, the estimated surplus of receipts over the expenditure, averaged according to the two last years, making a total exceeding £ 3,700,000. Of this amount he would reduce taxes to the extent of £ 1,700,000, and leave £ 2,000,000 as a surplus.— In the remisssion of taxes, his Lordship instanced the Duties on Hops, Printed Cottons, Leather, Sea- borne Coals, Tobacco, and Beer, as those otl which remission ought to be made. The Duke of WELLINGTON admitted that the agriculturists were labouring under great depression; but when a general committee of inquiry was called for, he opposed it as inexpedient and contrary to ( lie usual practice of the house. What remedy had the Noble Earl ( Stanhope) in contemplation when he demanded a Committee of Inquiry! Unless some practical measure of relief could be suggested, it was manifest that such a Committee could never he pro- ductive of benefit or advantage. Did the proposer wish to have a repeal of the Corn Law? If such were his specific, he would at once meet it with unqualified opposition. The system worked well, and the event abundantly justified his anticipations, for the agriculturist received fair value for his labour, while at the same time the importation was greater than it had been before. He was much concerned to hear of the distress which existed among his fellow- subjects, but would feel glad if the Noble Lords who agitated the question would only point out some judicious means of relief. They proposed a com- mittee of the whole house, but it was sufficiently easy to make such a suggestion. That was doing nothing, for it led to no remedy whatever. The Marquis of SALISBURY insisted that distress was felt in every part and by almost every rank, particularly the agricultural classes, thousands of whom were in the lowest state. With respect, how- ever, to a general inquiry at the bar of that house as to the state of the country, he thought it would do more harm than good. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said, that let the bouse pursue what course it would, the country never could arrive at a state of solidity and prosper- ity, tmtil, by meliorating the condition of the lower orders, they made that which was now the rotten part of the state its firm and solid basis, and produced that increase of consumption which could only be effected by raising the lower orders to a different and better condition than they are now in. The Earl of DARNLICY contended that the distress was not so great as bad been supposed by some, and expressed his conviction that the country had arrived at the lowest point of depression, and that both in agricultural and manufacturing affairs, the hofise might even now see cause for sanguine hopes of a return to a la tter state The house then divided on the original motion Content,.. .15 present— Proxies, 10.... 25 Not content, 67 present — Proxies, 51.... 118 Majority against the motion, 93. HOUSE OF COMMONS— FRIDAY. Sir ROWLAND HILL presented a petition signed by about 1200 inhabitants of Shropshire, praying a re- mission or reduction of the tax on Malt. Mr. SLANEY begged to call the attention of the house particularly to this petition. It was signed by 1,200 persons, at the head of whom were the gentle- men in the County, who stated, ill distinct terms, the evils which arose to themselves, to their tenantry, and , to the poor, from a continuancc of the duty upon malt and beer. In the measure which he had brought forward in the course of the last session upon this subject he Inyl proved that the amount of duty upon beer, before it came to the poor man, was 200 per cent- He rejoiced to hear that his majesty's govern- ment bail it in contemplation to give relief to the poorer classes. Be was glad to hear that an alteration was to be made in the retail ol" snuff and beer. As the right honourable the chancellor of the exchequer was now iu his place lie would take the opportunity of asking him when it was his intention to move for the select committee to inquire into the licensing of public- houses, which he had mentioned a few days since. He did not put this question from any idle motive, but because he hail himself had it in contem- plation in the course of a few days to have submitted a motion in which the consideration of this subject would have been included. If, however, it were true that his majesty's ministers meant to take the subject into consideration he should postpone his contemplated motion, antl rejoice that the subject had been taken into so much better hands. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that on Tuesday next it was his intention to move for a select committee to inquire into the laws and regula- tions with respect to the sale of beer, in order to render that sale perfectly open antl free. € l) c Salopian journal.

BEER TRADE.— It will he seen, from the Parlia- mentary Report, that another experiment in legis lation is about to be made ; and one w hich, we are « ure, will be of most evil tendency— namely, that of making the Sale of beer " perfectly open and free :" so that, what with dram- shops extending in every quarter, and alcshops to be opened wherever parties choose, society is in a fair way of progressing down- wards with accelerated rapidity— To the numerous individuals who have embarked their property in licensed houses, this measure will be ruinous : a great portion of them, whose property is mortgaged, will be rendered pennyless; while many other proprietors will be irreparably injured, Surely, the brewers' monopoly, as it has been termed, could have been counteracted without having recourse to this objec- tionable project— a scheme, too, which will be the very reverse of a benefit to the working classes. ROLLS COURT.— On Thursday last, his Honour the Master of the Rolls gave judgment in the cause arising out of the construction of the will and codicil of the late John Simpson, Esq. of this town ; and the question in which case was, whether bis heritable property in Scotland, and his copyhold estate together with freehold estates in England, purchased after the date of his will and codicil, passed by them, or descended to Mr. Simpson's daughters and coheiresses at law, Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Newton?— The deci- sion of his Honour was, that the estates in question descended to Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Newton; and that the costs of all parties in this cause must come out of the testator's personal estate.—[ It is said this decision will be appealed against.] Yesterday, Edward Jones, waggoner to Mr. Cross, of Cruck Meole, was fined fifteen shillings and seven shillings costs, for cruelly beating a horse belonging to his master. It will be seen by the advertisement in a subsequent column, that the intended New Market, in this ( own, is to be proceeded with immediately.— This Market is to offer accommodation— 1st, To all persons intitled to a Free Market; — 2dly, To rated Burgesses being Householders;— 3dly, To rated Inhabitants being Householders;— and, lastly, to such other persons willing to occupy the same as may be approved of by the Committee.

B. Mr. Thomas Crane, many years huntsman to the Fifeshire Fox Hounds, sincerely regretted, as he was in his life respected, by his employers. Crane, before his last situation, hunted the Duke of Wellington's hounds on the Continent, until the conclusion of the war; and previous to his coming to Fifeshire, managed Lord Stewart's ( now the Marquis of Londonderry's) establishment at Vienna. Crane was no common soul either with respect to his head or his heart: he was an enthusiast and thorough miister of his profession, both in and out of kennel, and it did one's heart good in living with him over a country, to observe " his quick eye glisten" and " his merry heel play." With a proper and becoming feeling did Capt. VVemyss, M. P. for the County, with the other Gentlemen of the Hunt, pay the last sad tribute to his memory ; and although his will might have been— That not a tear should be shed, Nor hie jacct be cut on his stone ; Still they might have pour'd o'er his coffin a bottle of red, And said a good soul was gone." Crane was a native of Shropshire, a rare example to his equals, and to many moving in a higher grade: and the foxes alone in Fife will rejoice that poor Tom is 110 more.— Sporting Magazine. To the Editor of the Times. SIR,— Your paper of this day states lhat his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland has ar- rived at Paris. This is an error, which I am sure you will readily correct. His Royal Highness is at Kew, aud is slill confined by a severe rheumatic attack to his house. To this I may add, front au almost daily communi- cation with his Royal Highness 011 parochial busi- ness of some charitable nature or other, that so far from his being at Paris, it is now more than a mouth since ( with the exception of some few fine days) he has been able to quit bis room. 1 am, Sir, your obedient servant, R. BURGH BTAM, Vicar of Kew. Kew, Monday, Feb. 22,1830 The very important question relative to,, the pro posed change in the Judicature of Wales, was brought before the House of Lords 011 Thursday last, by Lord Cawdor, who, 011 presenting a petition, advocated the projected alteration.— Lord El. DON then rose, and said he wished to direct the attention of their Lord- ships seriously to what were called the improvements of the Welsh judicature. He was rather induced to do so, because he bail had very great experience with respect to the administration of justice in this country. He believed, then, that it would be a very great grievance to the inhabitants of Wales to take away from them their equity courts. He would mention some facts which would make their Lordships understand how he came to entertain that opinion. The inhabitants of Wales had, if they chose to avail themselves of it, the opportunity of coming to the Court of Chancery of England and instituting their suits there. It would, lie believed, be found on examination, that during the 25 years in which he had had the honour to hold the seal, the inhabitants of Wah s had not thought it expedient to apply very frequently to the English Court of Chancery. They also had the opportunity of appealing to their Lord- ships if they thought the decisions of their own courts wrong ; and lie thought it would be expedient to have an account laid before their Lordships of the number of appeals which had proceeded from the Welsh Courts of equity. How many appeals did their Lord- ships suppose there had been in the course of 35 years? He spoke from memory, which, perhaps, was not so good as it had been some years since, but lie recollected but one appeal during that time, and that was affirmed. As temporary Chancellor for the county of Durham for a short time, he had the same experience in the matter, and he was persuaded that lo destroy the equity courts of Wales, and the coun- ties of Chester and Durham, would be productive of great mischief.

Sin— In your report of the debate in the House of Commons on Lord Blandford's motion for reform in parliament, I observe certain expressions attributed lo Sir F. Burdett, which demand my notice aud remark. As li e state of mv health does not admit of my attendance in parliament, where I should have noticed the unwarrantable assertions iu my place, 1 must beg the favour of you to give publicity to this letter by inserting it in your paper. In the report Sir Francis Burdett is represented to have said, that in early life he came into that house : but ill what way ? In defiance of the law of the country he purchased his scat of a notorious boroughmonger— of no less a person than the Duke of Newcastle. But the noble Duke was no patron of his ; be took his money for the seat, but It'll, hinr an independent member, having purchased a right to speak ill the house of representative? with the voice of an Englishman who loverl the liberty of his country." After some flourishing language, which must have been not unlike sounding brass and tinkling cymbals, the Hon. Faronet proceeds to say that, " having been introduced to the house through such a channel of corruption, he could not help feeling for the electors of East Retford, who, in these times of general corruption, had at least the good sense to sell themselves,"& c. & c. Now, with every allowance for tbe utmost free-! dom of speech, this is past endurance. 1 cannot tamely submit to be publicly proclaimed a notorious boroughmonger, a channel of corruption, and, by inference, as contrasted with the Baronet, au enemy to Ihe liberties of the country, without repelling tbe charge with the truest indignation/ Sly hands are tied from entering into detail. The Hon. Baronet accuses me of being a corrupt boroughtnongcr, an elegant and honourable ap- pel'aiion truly, and states that he bought his first seat of me. He knows as well as 1 do that his assertion is not correct. When he first catne into parliament I was quite a boy, and happily ignorant, as 1 wish I was now, of all his practices. This fact will show the Hon. Baronet in his proper colours. Having an object iu view he adopts the unwarrant- able course of endeavouring to prop up his own reputation by tbe ruin of mine. I am to be pro- claimed by name as a corrupt violator of the laws of my country, whilst the Hon. Baronet figures in bright contrasts on the opposite side as the ex- clusively honest man, the only champion of. his country's freedom. I am, in short, to be the com- monest of nobles— the Baronet the noblest of coni- mcn in business arc— I say, sir, that siich men must tee! ashamed to appear in company : they would blush and hang down their beads, and Ihey would think every body in the room was whispering, " That gentleman keeps a huckster's shop— sells bacon, cheese, tinder- boxes, and matches, and every thing else that a poor man, woman, or child ever uses;" and that the finger of scorn was justly pointed at them. ( Believing, Mr. Editor, as I do, that this mean sys- tem is spreading widely in the manufacturing districts, ptoducing low wages, falling markets, ruined shop keepers, and all the baneful consequences, it cannot be too strongly reprobated. Give the labouring classes fair wages, and pay them with money, and you will see that all will soon be right again. A FRIEND TO TIIFE LABOURING CLASSES.

[ From the Standard of Wednesday.] Lord John Russell last night brought forward a motion for conferring upon Manchester, Leeds, and Birmingham, the right to send two members each to parliament. Mr. Wilbruham seconded it. Lord Sandon moved, as an amendment, a more general resolution, affirming the propriety of transferring, to sucb populous places, the franchises hereafter to be forfeited by boroughs convicted of corruption. Mr. Twiss, member for IVootten Basset; Lord Vallctort, member for Lostwithiel ; Mr. Peel mem- ber for Westbury ; Sir George Murray, representa- tive of some score of constructive freeholders iu Perthshire; Mr. Charles Wynn, and a few more of the present and late servants of government, opposed Lord John Rnssel's motion; which was supported, oil the other side, by Dr. Lusliington, Lord Morpeth, General Gascoyne, Mr. Huskisson, Mr. Bright, and Mr. Brougham. On a division, the numbers were— For the motion 140 Against it 188 I . caving a majority small enough to make ministers n little nervous, and which we predict will continue diminishing upon every repetition of a rational inea- • ire of reform. The arguments adduced upon Ihe negative side may be reduced to three: — 1st, That a change iu the constitution of the Commons' House is not called forby any specific grievance;— 2d, and that the roposed addition, amounting to something less than u one- hundredth part, would exorbitantly enlarge the proportion of English members, in violation of the Scotch Union [ so inviolably respected at the Irish Union and in the " great measure" of last veur]; and thirdly, that the British constitution being a Gothic structure, all its anomalies outfit to be preserved as beauties and advantages. To the want of a specific grievance, it may be objected that there are specific grievances enough iu the universal distress out of doors, aud iu ils authors within. The very prnpounder of this notable argument is surely specific grievance enough. Why should Woottcn Basset send to parliament a representative?— and why should such u person as Mr. Twiss be sent lo parliament by any place ? To pass from Worrit en ll. wsrl to Westhury, is not that place a specific grievance!— is not Sir. l'eel a specific grievance? Is it not a monstrous grievance that u man repudiated with the utmost earnestness of scorn by the most intelligent and independent body of electors in England, indeed on the face of tbe earth, on account of his conduct in a particular matter, should be enabled to come back into parliament, at a time when it is notorious that no place iu England having fifty electors would have returned him, and enabled to come back, by the effect of a corrupt bargain with a convicted broker in national rights, to prosecute to a success- ful issue that very course of conduct which had made him so universally obnoxious ? It' this be not u specific grievance, no scandal upon parliament, no insult to the people of England, can be regarded as ' such. For the next objection— the already excessive number of our legislators, ( passing over the opinion of those who think that it wants just 8 to complete its lust year's work, and to accomplish a prophecy) — we will admit that there are qnile enough of them, such as they are; but we could suggest a very summary means of reducing Ihe number, even one half, if sucb reduction be thought advisable,— a means quite conformable to parliamentary usage, and perfectly consistent with justice. Let all who come in dishonestly, be honestly expelled. The House of Commons, we all know, exercises an Inquisitorial authority. It went mice so far us to enforce this authority to extort the secrets of a sworn jury. Now, let it exert i- e this unlhoiity upon itself; let the borough members be told t, ff by some skilful baud— say Sir George Murray ; let the member for Westbury, aud his rear rank man, the member for Woollen Bassett, lake the right of the squad; let them be ordered forward to explain the manner in which Ihey have contrived lo make themselves legislators; if Ihey fail to make that explanation satisfactory," there can be no mistake;" and we have high authority for assuming that such fatal absence of ambiguity is a le- itinm'e passport nut of doors. Sic de cceteris, and Ihe house can soon be made thin enough, without waiting, like Ihe lowest officer of the law, for the inherited suits of convicts. Sir George Murray's picturesque - reasoning in favour of tbe Gothic structure of parliament might . go for something ( though under any t ircuiiistaiicc it could scarcely be considered cm, elusive) if par. liaineut had not, by ils own passion for improvement, taught us lo despise such prejudices iu favour of antiquity. Parliament, however, has not only taught ng this lesson; it has compelled us lo act upon it; the wisdom of the legislature has already new modelled or destroyed the lower courses of the building. The Church — the commercial classes— the agricultural cLissess — those noble clustered columns, those massive buttresses, which gave security » « d symmetry tolhe fabric, are overthrown, or declining from their upright stability; and are we to be told that the ponderous superstructure is to remain still an incongruity and a danger, because it was once homogenous and useful lo those whom it now mocks and menaces with ruin ;— to remain, because, forsooth, half a dozen lords or rich men have a profit iu its preservation. moncrs. However, as I do not deal in hollow professions — as 1 do not say much and mean little— as my reputation is as dear to me as the Baronet's to him — as I desire lo stand well in the good opinion of iny countrymen— so I must clear myself from all imputation or even suspicion of corruption, or of that venality which the Baronet complacently terms venial. I will not shelter myself behind the Hon. Baronet's amnesty— 1 claim no indulgence— I call for his proofs of my venality— and I cull upon him to show any action of my life in which I have been influenced by a base love of gain, or even by a selfish consideration. My name has been handed about by many a spouter iu parliament, and by, perhaps, mauy a pot- house politician, as a corrupt boroughmonger, aud au enemy lo the freedom of my country. Once forall, I utterly deny Ihe very shadow even of such au imputation, and if it were necessary would challenge the most fiery ordeal of public scrutiny. Iu these times of political villainy and immoral depravity, a man possessing a fair name may be a sort of political target for mock patriots and modern liberals to shoot at; but he must feel a conscious pride in tlie possession of that name which will shield him from all wounds, and urge him not to fear tf preserve it. Not only for myself, but for others who nre situated as I am, I have thought it incumbent upon me to vindicate our claims to integrity and patriot- ism. As peers and Englishmen we should be doubly noble, and let it not be supposed by the country at large, that because we are titled we therefore have not the feelings of men, who prize their honour aud love their country as much as any human being who may be blessed by the appellation of Englishmen. I am, Sir, your obedient, NEWCASTLE. Clumber, Feb. 21, 1830. A jury was summoned to ascertain the value of tbe leasehold interest of the claimants, John Walton and John Cochrane Walton, in the premises No. 13, Fish- street- hillj and the compensation to be made to them as occupiers, for good . will,. Improvements, tenants' fixtures, and all loss, injury, or damage, lo be sustained by them for quitting possession thereof on account of the execution of the act of parlia- ment lOth George IV. for improving the approaches to London bridge. The claimants in this case are extensive toy dealers, and one fact came out in the course of the trial which Will be likely to excite much grcatir competition in the toy- trade titan at present exists. Indeed, il would not be to be wondered at if Ihe great capitalists would suddenly embark iu a busi- ness in whici such an enormous per ceutage is received Upon the articles, whether sold by whole- sale or retail. The claimants sell by wholesale and retail, and lifter notice was served upon them to quit under the terms of the act, they sent in to Ihe committee, a long formal account of their demand. In this they state, that 9 years of their lease is yet unexpired, that since 1822, when they took the premise's, which are very extensive and com- modious, their trade had tfebfed, and that if they remained where they were, they might calculate upon double their present business before the expiration of the lease ; that they attributed this increase to the situation being a " complete sign, facing the Monument ;" that it was impossible, through Ihe whole city of London, to find premises equally capacious, commodious, aud commanding; and ( hat to the retail trade of the bouse a forced removal would be complete annihilation — a trade which produced from 100 to 300 per cent, profit. In illustration of this fact, the claimants instanced one article which Ihey imported from Germany ( not however naming it), and sold for ready money at from 160 to 250 per cent, profit. The mode of averaging the profits was lather singular. They judge from the sums drawn out of the trade to support two large establishments, and Ihe increase of property both ill stock and surplus book debts. They state that they are now the most extensive importers in England, of French, German, and Italian fancy goods ; and they conclude » ith a list of items of their demand of Ihree years* profits ou their retail, and one year's profit on their wholesale trade, and a particular detail of Iheir dealings w ith their customers.

SIR, The power and influence of the press are great, and a widely circulated paper, advocating good principles] is a national blessing. You, sir, have done much good in drawing the attention of the public to the general distress, parti- cularly of the labouring classes. Distress certainly exists, but it is difficult to learn the causes which produce this lamentable effect. Men take various views of the subject, some attri- buting it to the change iu the currency, some to high rents, some to over- trading,— by which the late Earl of Liverpool meant manufacturing more goods than the world could take,— some again to low wages, ami snme to tbe w ithdrawing the country bankers'notes from circulation. Perhaps, sir, every one of these supposed causcs act as tributary streams to a river, and altogether produce the pi'- sent flood of distress. The currency question is one difficult to under- stand. High rents are not so great an evil as some imagine, because they are generally spent by the landlord, in the kingdom, and the labouring classes partake largely. Overtrading, as explained by Lord Liverpool, arises greatly from low wages, which oblige the labouring classes to work double tide, and consequently to manufacture au extraordinary quan- tity of goods, which, in course, overstock the markets, throwing down prices and profits. The ramification of this evil is great, and with the other causes has contributed its full stream to the present flood of distress. Every master manufacturer has now to follow a glutted market. Hence various devices to manufac- ture cheaper and cheaper, and thus a falling market has been progressively produced. Every body knows that every shopkeeper and warehouseman is cautious in buying. When this is the case, they will only order scantily, just sufficient to keep on their business. This has an immense effect on the home trade, compared with which, the export trade is but a trifle. The country bankers, also, may not be so able, or so willing, to count out sovereigns to accommodate country shopkeepers, & c. as they were formerly to part with notes of their own creating. This may be another reason why the shopkeepers, See. curtail their orders to the lowest possible quantity. Let us, however, look forward to the turn, of the tide; the streams will diminish aud the flood will decrease. A surprising change will take place as soon as the markets begin steadily to rise; then you will see every one eager to purchase, and the shops and warehouses which have been emptied during a fulling market will be quickly filled on a rising one. Low wages incapacitate immense numbers of Ihe labouring classes from purchasing in one part of the kingdom what is made in . another, and this cause perhaps is one of the greatest which is operating at the present moment. Raise wages, and let this multi- tude, perhaps six or eight millions, have a few shillings per week more to lay out in manufactured articles, and you will sec the distress abate and the revenue improve. But, sir, the labouring classes have not now enough to. procuie fnod, still less raiment; children run naked, and thousands are without, sheets and blankets. Nay, 1 am informed, and In Iheir shame be it spoken, that many master manufacturers absolutely keep hucksters' shops, and compel their workmen to take their wages in goods at from ten to fifty or seventy per cent, more than they would procure the same articles for at the regular shopkeepers; this is oppression with a witness, rendering low wages sliil lower, obliging the masters who pay money agreeably to the law of the land, to reduce them in order to keep up their connexions. This surely is a great and crying sin, for " he who opprcsselh the puor to increase his riches shall surely come to want." it is an illegal and cruel oppression, a disgrace to humanity; and one would think that any man who might wish to be considered in the character of a gentleman, which educated and highly respectable Total 11,823 12 The fixtures to be taken at a valuation. From paitof the evidence, it appeared that the Messrs. Walton and their servants were iu tbe habit of travelling about to fairs, in different parts of Ihe country, with toys ; and that it was immate- rial in what part of the City the trade Was carried on. One witness said tbe profits were enormous, and that they must amount to £ 200 or £ 300 per cent.; this profit was principally upon fancy articles. The house imported very largely, and the business increased greatly. From chance customers they had taken £ 400 or £ 500 a week. During Ihe twelve months from August, 1825, to August, 1826, the returns were £ 25,000 or £ 26,000, of which one- third was in the bill- book, viz. the chance custom described, and what was taken in the retail trade, Tbe trade was likely to suffer by removal, from the small dealers who went round on Saturday uight. The jury after consulting together, reduced the claim, which was made at £ 11,823. 12s. lOd. to £ 2,550. DESCRIPTION OF AN IRISH POTTEEN DISTILLERY. Some time since, being oil a journey amongst the mountains in the most northern parts of Ireland, I learned that there was a potteen distillery then at work ; and, having dispatched an emissary well known to the distiller to procure me admission, 1 was per mittcd to inspect the process. Tbis place was famous for producing good spirit. The distillery was a very small thatched cabin, at one end of which was a large turf fire kindled on the ground, and confined by a semicircle of large stones Resting oil these stones, and over the fire, was a forty- gallon tin vessel, which answered both for heating the water and as the body of the still. Over the fire was an opening in the thatch, with a very low chimney ; and through this was conveyed away the smoke, after traversing the whole of the apartment. The fumes of the burning turf were so acrimonious that my eyes were exceedingly smarted ; on perceiving which, the distiller desired me to sit down as a certain remedy. I did so, and immediately the pain ceased j the fumes occupied the upper stratum only of the air; they consisting chiefly of pyroligncous acid in vapour. The mash- tun was a cask hooped with wood, at the bottom of which, next the chimb, was a hole plugged wiili tow. This vessel had no false bottom : in place of it the bottom was strewed with young heath ; and over this a stratum of oat husks. Here the mash of hot water and ground malt was occasionally mixed up for two hours ; after which time the vent at bottom was opened, and the worts were allowed to filter through the stratum of oat husks and heath. The mashing with hot water on the same grains was then repeated, and the worts were again withdrawn. The two worts being mixed iu another cask, some yeast was added, and the fermentation allowed to proceed until it fell spontaneously, which happened in about three days. It was now ready for distillation, and was transferred into the tin hotly, which was capable of distilling a charge of forty gallons. A piece of soap, weighing about two ounces, was then thrown in to prevent its running foul; and the head, apparently a large tin pot with a tube in its side, was inverted into the rim of the body, antl luted with a paste made of- oatmeal and water. The lateral tube was then lilted into the worm, which was a copper tube of an inch and a half bore, coiled in a barrel for a flake- stand. The tail of the worm where it emerged from the barrel was calked with tow. The wash speedily caine to a boil, and then water was thrown on the fire ; for at this period is the chief danger of boiling over. The spirit almost immediately came over: it was perfectly clear ; and by its head, this first running was inferred to be proof. Its flavour was really ex- cellent; and it might well have passed for a spirit of three months old. As soon as the upper stratum of water in the flakestand became warm, a large pailful of cold water from an adjoining stream was dashetl in with sufficient force, as he said, to make the hot water run over, it being lighter; and this cooling process was continually applied to. In this way, the singlings were drawn off'in about two hours; and the singling? of four distillations made one charge of the still to produce the potteen. The malt was prepared by enclosing the barley in a sack, and soaking the sack and its contents for some time in bog water, which is deemed the best; then withdrawing and draining it. The malt was then made to germinate in the usual manner. When it had gruwn sufficiently, it was conveyed in a sack to the kiln, along with some sacks of raw corn, for the pur- pose of concealment. Tbe raw corn was spread out ou tbe kiln ; hut during the knight, when the kiln - owner had retired to rest, the raw corn was removed, the malt spread on, dried, and replaced by the raw grain before day. The owner of corn, drying. on rr kiln sits up all mghfto watch it. In this way dis- covery was eluded, and the malting completed To describe the conversations which Blake held in prose with demons, and in Verse with angels, would fill volumes, aud an ordinary gallery could not contain all. the heads which he drew of his visionary visitants. That all this was real, he him- self most sincerely believed ; nay, so infections was his enthusiasm, that some acute and sensible per- sons who heard him expatiate shook their heads, and hinted that he was an extraordinary man, and that there might be Something in the thalter. One of his brethren, an artist of some note, employed him frequently in drawing the portraits of those who appeared to him in visions. The most propi- tious time for those " angel- visits" was from nine at night till five in the morning; and so docile were his spiritual sitters, that they appeared at the wish of his friends. Sometimes, however, the shape which he desired to draw was long in appearing, nnd he sat with his pencil antl paper ready and his' eyes idly roaming in vacancy; all at once the vision catne upon him, aud he began to work like one possessed. He was requested to draw the likeness of Sir William Wallace— the eye of Blake sparkled, for he admired heroes. " William Wallace!" he exclaimed, " 1 see him now— there, ( here, how noble he looks— reach me my things!" Having drawn for some time, with the same care of hand and steadiness of eye as if a living sitter had been before him, Blake stopped suddenly, and said " I cannot finish him — Edward the First has stepped in between him and me." " That's lucky," said his friend, " for I want the portrait of Edward too Blake took another sheet of paper, aud sketched the features of Plantitgenet; upon which his Ma- jesty politely Vanished, and the artist finished the head of Wallace. " And pray, Sir," said a gentle man, who heard Blake's friend tell this story " was Sir William Wallace an heroic- looking man? And what sort of personage was Edward? The answer was—" There they are, Sir, both framed and hanging on the wall behind you, judge for yourself." " I looked ( says my informant), and saw two warlike heads of the size of common- life That of Wallace was noble and heroic,- ( hat o Edward stern and bloody. The first had the front of a god,- the latter the aspect of a demon." The friend who obliged me with these anecdotes, on observing file interest which 1 took on the subject said, " 1 know much about Blake— 1 was his coin, panion nine years. I have sat beside him from ten at night till three rn the morning, sometimes slum bering and sometimes waking, but Blake never slept; be sat with a pencil and paper drawing portraits of those Whom I most desired to see. I will shew you. Sir, some of these Works." H took out a large book filled with drawings, opened it and continued : " Observe the poetic fervour of that face— it is Pindar, as he stood a conqueror in the Olympic games. And this lovely creature is Corinna, who conquered in poetry in the same place. Tiiat lady is Luis, the courtezan— with the impudence which is part of her profession, she stepped in between Blake and Coriuna, and he was obliged to paint her to get her away. There ! that is a face of a different slainp— can you conjecture who he is;" " Some scoundrel, I should think, Sir." " You are right, it is the Devil— he resem- bles, and this is remarkable, two men who shall be nameless; one is a great lawyer, and the other — I wish I durst name him— is a suborner of false witnesses. This other head now ? This speaks for itself— it is the head of Herod; how like ail eminent officer in the army !" He closed the book, and, taking out a small panel from a private drawer, said, " This is the last which I shall shew you; but it is the greatest curiosity of all. Only look at the splendour of the colouring and the original character of the thing!" " 1 see," said I, naked figure with strong body and a short neck— with burning eyes which long for moisture, and a face worthy of a murderer, holding a bloody cup in its clawed hands, out of which it seems eager to drink. I never saw any shape so strange, nor did 1 ever see any colouring so curiously splendid a kind of glistening greeu and dusky gold, beau- tifully varnished. But what in the world is it?" " It is a ghost, Sir— the ghost of a flea— a spi- ritualization of the thing!" " He saw this in a vision then," I said. " I'll tell you all about it, Sir. 1 called on him one evening, and found Blake more than usually excited. He told me he had seen a wonderful thing— theghost of a flea! And did you make a drawing of him? I inquired. No, indeed, said he, 1 wish I had, but 1 shall if he appears again! He looked earnestly into a corner of the room, and then said, here he is— reach tne iny things— I shall keep my eye on him. There he coines! his eager tongue whispiug out of his mouth, a cup in his hand to hold blood, aud covered with a scaly skin of gold and green; and as he described him so he drew him." These stories are scarcely credible, yet there can be no doubt of their accu- racy. Another friend, on whose veracity 1 have ihe fullest dependence, called one evening on Blake, and found him sitting with a pencil and a panel, drawing a portrait with all the seeming aoxiety of a man who is conscious that he has got a fastidious sitter ; he looked and drew, and drew and looked, yet no living soul was visible. " Dis- turb me not," said he, in a whisper, " I have one silting to me," " Sitting to you!" exclaimed his astonished visitor—" where is he, and what is he? I see no one." " But I see him, Sir," answered Blake, haughtily,—" there he is, his name is Lot; you may read of him in Scripture. He is sitting for his portrait."— Family Library, No. X.

The state of Georgia has passed an act to pre- vent any communication between free persons of colour coming from abroad with the negroes on shore, and what seems more extraordinary, all persons teaching either a slave or a free person of colour to read or write, is to be punished with a fine not exceeding 500 dollars, and imprisonment at the discretion of the Court ! This act, let it be remembered, which would be a disgrace to the Turkish Divan, proceeds from the slate of a re- publican government. Wednesday morning Mr. Robert Boast, clerk to Meter*. Cann and Clarke, brewers of Wymondham, Norfolk, was attending one of the servants, Mr. Maystone, in their employ, in apart of the office, when the floor suddenly gave way with about 400 quarters of malt, which broke through another floor beneath, aud precipitated them into a cellar. Mr. John Cross, a respectable butcher, went in respect- ing some business not a minute before, and was buried beneath with them. Assistance was in- stantly procured, but half an hour elapsed before they could be extricated, when Mr. Boast and Mr. Cross were both found dead by suffocation, as no bones were broken. Maystone was taken out alive, and is recovering. Mr. Boast had not re- sided at Wymondham more than three months, is a young man, and was much respected by his em- ployers and bis ueighbonrs. He has left a wife almost frantic, and one child, an infant. Mr. Cross was very much respected by all who knew him. He leaves a wife and six small children in the greatest sorrow imaginable. The lucrative living of St. Sepulchre, Snow- hill, which has been for some weeks vacant, has just been filled up by the appointment of the Rev. Mr. Natt, B. D., to the Rectory. The presentation is vested in St. John's College, Oxford, ill which University Mr. Natt has the reputation of being a very distinguished classical scholar, a writer of no mean eminence, and. as a preacher, gifted with considerable oratorical powers and eloquence. The Rev. Mr. Natt will, it is stated, deliver his introductory sermon on Sunday, the 7lh of March, previous to which he will be inducted, with the usual ceremonies, into his new office. The late Rector of St. Sepulchre ( Dr. Shakle- ford), who held the living many years, was possessed of considerable property at his- death, and being un- married, and dying without issue, bequeathed the greater portion to an aged female ( his housekeeper), who had been a long time in his service, and who; from a state of comparative indigence, has been raised to affluence, and the enjoyment of considerable wealth, by her late master's demise.

The Bank received during the same period £ 14,759,820. 10s. leaving a balance of £ 3,200,591. 10s. From an account of all sovereigns and half- sovereigns issued at the Mint, for other persons than the Bank of England, from the 2d of May, 1828, to ( lie 3lstof December, 1829, both inclusive, it appears that during that period £ 1,638,443. 13s. 9d. were coined for Mr. Rothschild; £ 24,198. 8s.

A steam tug- boat has just been brought into use upon the river Severn between Gloucester and Worcester, by means of which the intercourse between the two ports is very materially facilitated, and a saving of 48 hours accomplished. A trial has been made by Messrs. Bowen and Son's steam- tug, the Sabrina, which towed a vessel laden with from 60 to 70 tons, at Ihe rate of eight miles an hour. The engines are constructed upon a new principle, with horizontal motion. EXPENSIVE JOKE.— Mr. Cawley, of Huntingdon, aving purchased two dogs made of plaster of Paris, to put ou his mantel piece, oue of his neigh- bours, by way of joke, in the presence of the col- lector of taxes, assorted that Mr. Cawley kept trt'o dogs, for which be knew he paid no laS. About a fortnight afterwards, Mr. C. received a supple- mentary charge for two tlogs, and, neglecting to appeal atf the proper time, the charge was con firmed. Very naturally, the aggrieved party for a engtli of time objected to pay, until ( be board in Loudon ( ignorant of tbe merits of the case) by letter hinted that it might prove very unpleasant if tbe charge was not complied with ; and it is a fact, that Mr. Cawley has paid tbe tax for the two plaster dogs, and has again been called upon this" year to make a return of the same.— Stamford Mercury. FUE ORIGIN or GLOVES.— Gloves have obtained by some a very early origin, from the supposition that they are mentioned in the 109th Psalm, where the Royal prophet declares he will cast his " shoe over Etlom." They go still higher, imagining them to be used in Ihe time of the Judges ( Ruth 4— 7), where if is Said, it was tbe custom for a man to take Off his shoe, and to give it to his neighbour, as a token of redeeming or exchanging any thing. W are informed, that the word in these two texts, which is usually translated shoe, is by the Chald paraphrast, in the latter, rendered glove. Xetio- phon, speaking of the manners of the Persians states, as a proof of their effeminacy, that, not Satisfied with covering their heads and their feet, they also guarded their hands against the cold with thick gloves. Homer, sneaking of one at work iu his gftrden; represents him " with gloves on his hands to secure them from the thorns." Varro, an ancient writer, is au evidence in favour of their antiquity among the Romans. He says, that olives gathered with the naked hand, are preferable to those gathered with gloves. Athenseus speaks of a Celebrated glutton who always came to table with gloves on his bands, that he might be able to handle antl eat the meat while hot, and devour more than the rest of th'- company. Knives aud forks at that time were not invented. THE AFRICAN PELICAN.— The grey pelican abounds on the margins of rivers aud streams in Hoiissa ; it isr much less than the white pelican, and the beak, iff particular, is considerably smaller than that of the latter species. Tbe former are found in immense numbers, more especially at a place called Zulamee, and build their nests close at the water's edge, near to which they always stand to feed their yourig. The eggs are esteemed as a delicacy by the natives-: hut the flesh of the bird is of so offensive a flavour that it cannot be eaten. It is somewhat Singular that the opinion of the pelican feeding its young with its blood is as general in Houssa as it is amongst the lower class of people in Europe; and to this belief I must acknowledge myself a proselyte! I have stood for a lung while together by the side of this stupid animal, watching its motions, and seeing it bending its"- head for its offspring to extract their nourishment. The yfmng ones thrust their beaks into a small round aperture at the lower part of the back of the neck of their parent, and they swallow the substance that flows freely through. If it be not blood that issues from the old bird, it is a red liquid so closcly resembling it that the difference cannot be perceived. I took a sketch of a pelican feeding its young in this manner, in Houssa, which is now in my possession ; antl I should not have said SO much On the subject, if inv assertions bad not been questioned by several of my countrymen.— l. andcr's Records of Captain Clapperton's Second Expedition to Africa. On Tuesday, a very numerous Special General Board was held at Bristol Infirmary, Mr. Alderman Goltlney in the Chair. This meeting of the Sub- scribers was convened, for the purpose of taking into consideration a Report of the House Committee, respecting " a very considerable degree of insubordi- nation amongst the Surgeons' Pupils and Apprentices of the Institution, highly detrimental to the Charity.' This conduct led to the suspension for a month of one of the Pupils, ( son of a Surgeon to the House,) who was only to be re- admitted to the discharge of his duties on making a suitable apology for his miscon duct, in the presence of the Committee. In the face of this determination, the father re- admitted his son to the Infirmary, at the termination of the proscribed period, without making any apology whatever; and it was for the support of their authority, that the Committee now appeal to the Special Board. Several gentlemen addressed the Meeting; and it appeared to be the general sense of those present, that nothing but an ample apology ought to be received ; that the Committee deserved the thanks of the General Board, and were entitled to its full support; and in this spirit the following resolution was carried by an im- mense majority, with something like cheers :—" That the report of the Committee be approved; and that this Board decides, that the Pupil be not re- admitted withoutmaking the required apology."— This apology has been subsequently made. The Bury and Suffolk Herald gives the follow- ing copy of a note addressed to Mr. Sainsbury by the Duke of Wellington, and sent to a gentleman in the neighbourhood of Woodbridge :—" ' Ihe Duke of Wellington presents his compliments to Mr. Sainsbury, and has receivetl his letter of the 28th inst. 1 he Dulie assures Mr. Sainsbury that what he reads respecting him in the newspapers is not true. The Duke has no intention of interfering with the Church Establish- ment." A very daring forgery has been discovered in the Consol- ofiice at the Bank, where a person has obtained the dividend on £ 66,000 consols, by personating the real bolder, and counterfeiting his signature. The amount thus obtained was £ 990, and tbe forgery was not discovered until the true claimant presented himself, as usual, to sign for his dividend. The money was chiefly obtained in notes of £ 50 each, of which only one has come back to the hank. Of course the loss falls on the company. GOUT.— About forty years ago, Rinaldo Carli, a gouty subject of Italy, published a treatise ou gout, in which he highly extols the simple decoc- tion of linseed as a powerful corrector of the gouty habit. The simple remedy it seems, proved some- what beneficial iu numerous cases of gout, and tbe work was republished five years after its first ap- pearance by order of the Academy of Udine. A very respectable gentleman residing in this country, who has suffered exceedingly from gout, in a letter to Mr. Wakley, says, " Ever since I have taken this medicine ( decoction of linseed,) three months, 1 have been free from gout, headache, cramp, and from dry hot feet in bed, and I have not for many years been free from these symptoms at any time, particularly at this time of the year; I am now 58 years of age." Oil the mode of using this remedy, Rinaldo Carli observes, " Every morning fasting 1 take the decoction : an ounce of linseed, slightly bruised iu a mortar, is boiled for a few minutes in a pint of water, aud the liquor strained through fine linen whilst warm. A quarter or half a pint to be taken for a dose." This, says the author, is the only remedy I use, and to which 1 am indebted for being free from gout. He states that he has recom- mended it to many gouty subjects who bave derived the same benefit from it. He adds, 11 take no other care, and have no reservation in my food, nor iu my manner of living.' The remedy at any rate has the no small recommendation— simplicity. By quieting the stomach, and correcting the secretion of the kidneys, and probably by diluting Ihe chyle or producing a mild chyle, it may have a very beneficial effect in correcting the gouty habit, or in producing a state of stomach and of the whole system un- favourable for gouty action. The present population of the United States is estimated at 9,688,000 persons. CHIPPENHAM, FEB. 18—' 1 his town, like Frome, Bradford, Trowbridge, and all other manufacturing towns I know of, renders the Duke Of Wellington's speech, about our traffic on canals and rail- roads, a paradox ; here were, a few years since, eleven fac- tories, giving employment to from two to three hun- dred hands each, & here are the factories now, but the busy hum of industry no more resounds within their walls; their machinery is rusting in prosperous silence, excepting one silk factory, aud that has still enough business to keep its wheels in motion. What a dread- ful change then does this town present! is this like over- production ? Htiw long will the incompetent statesmen of this country continue to impose on the credulity of the people by the absurd assertion that their distresses are occasioned by over production? and that, too, while no one in any part of the king- dom can fail to see around him the thousands of starving peasantry without food or clothing. Would our half- employed machinery create an over- produc- tion, if the millions, receiving the pay of paupers throughout the country, were enabled to gain by their industry a comfortable home, a neatly furnished cottage, and plenty of good English wool clothing 1 Those proinulgers of the over- production evil tacitly confess that the country lacks hot abundance of all things. Then is not the conclusion obvious that there is something radically wrong in the Government, which prevents an equitable distribution of that abundance ? All that the people want is the means of comfortable existence; we bave these means within our reach, why is it they are not allowed to enjoy it? The rates in this parish amount to 4s. in the pound. The parish contains about 4000 acres, and the tithes have amounted to the sum of £ 1700 a- year— not for the payment of the clergyman, he is separately pro- vided for— they belong to a lay impropriator.— Ruth Journal. EXTREME DESTITUTION.— Amongst the numerous complaints of distress in all parts of the country, we have heard of few instance- which appear to have so large a claim on tbe commiseration and assistance of a benevolent piiblic, as the state of the poor in the parish of Coaley, in this county. A gentleman who Occupies a considerable tract of land in an adjoining parish, in going over his farm in the late deep snow, found that a hedge that surrounded one of his ricks had been very lately carried away ; and the track of the depredators being left in the snow, he followed them, with tbe intention of making their conduct a public example to others. He soon came to a cot- tage, if it deserves the name, where part, of the wood had evidently gone. Here he found a woman and three children, the eldest a boy about eight year* old, who was not even deCently clothed ; the poor woman very little better, and none of the family having either shoes or stockings! The cottage, or rather the hut, consisted of only one room on the ground- floor, the roof in such a state that, in wet weather, it was as dirty in the habitation as out of it; the chimney so low, yet so open, that it offered but little obstruction to the entrance of the piercing Winds and weather ; and there being only a door way; without any door whatever, to this miserable abode, we leave our readers to judge what these poor creatures must have suffered during the severe cold we have this winter experienced. To atld to their sufferings, too, they had no bed, blankets, or even bedstead, to lie on ; so that all they could do at night was to wrap themselves in their miserable scanty clothing, and lie down in the most sheltered part of this wretched habitation. This statement may pro- bably appear overdrawn; but our readers may depend on its veracity ; nor will they be at much loss to account for such misery, when they learn that the poor are almost all unemployed; that the greatest allowance to any one in the parish is Is. 3d. per week ; and that there are no respectable persons living within its limits, to render them assistance, except the Curate, ( who does far more than prudence would dictate,) and the farmers, who are so oppressed themselves hy the state of the times, and the enormous burden of tbe pOOr- Tates, that they can of course do nothing for the poor and destitute around them. But to proceed to the cottage, little better than the last, to which the rest of the wood has evidently found its way: here a poor old man, one of its in- habitants, came out to. meet the visitor, well know- ing, as he said, why he was come ; and invited him in to witness the distress which had driven him to steal the wood. The wife of the old man, it appeared, was so far mentally deranged, as to be obliged to be tied in the house. His son, 30 years of age, was an idiot; and his daughter, who completed tbe family, and who hy her work at some neighbouring factory had supported the re- t, lav so ill of a violent fever, that he did not expect she could survive an hour! The old man himself had no work; and the only allowance he had had from the parish was Is. per week. The gentleman observed, that that could not possibly maintain them. The poor man replied, that tho* they did manage to support life, yet they had often been obliged to go for a whole day together without food ! The old man's cheeks were marked by the channels his tears had made ; antl we think many of our readers will be almost ready to shed the tear of sympathy over his melancholy destitute situation! The gentleman, on returning home, very kindly sent the poor sick daughter such sustenance as was adapted to her state of health ; but, alas! it was too late, for she is ntiw released from all her accumulated sufferings. Her illness was no doubt induced by tbe real want of the common necessaries of life; antl there is every reason to fear the fever will spread further amongst the poor inhabitants of tbe parish— Let not our readers suppose, that these are solitary instances of distress. We cannot pretend to state the extent of misery that exists in the neigh- bourhood ; but the touching cases we have related, which were discovered as by accident, and are given without exaggeration, may form a good criterion by which to judge of the state in which many of our fellow creatures are to be found, in and about the parish we have mentioned.— We are happy to learn, that Ihe gentleman who intended to expose the wickedness of these suffering depredators, has gener- ously undertaken to collect a subscription for the relief of the parish, which we conceive is far more needed than those which have been made in towns and cities,- where personal suffering is comparatively unknow n.— Gloucester Journal. There are at present at Frome, says the Sherborne Mercury, no fewer than 5000 paupers receiving regular weekly pay, which, reckoning tin an average at only Is each, amounts to £ 250 weekly, or £ 13,000 yearly. The weekly payments to the casual poor, at, the close of the last year, amounted to £ 89. 15s. 1 - fI. or £ 4667. 6s. 6d. yearly, since which time there has been a considerable increase. Tbis class of pau- pers consists of able- bodied men, driven from their usual employ through the great stagnation of trade, many of whom were not long since rate- payers and considerable manufacturers, but are now subsisting on parochial relief at the rate of 4s. each, Is. for each child In the amount of six children, and Is. fid. for their wives, weekly. The parish contains about 5200 acre's of land, which pay about 24s. per arm poor- rates; the remainder is levied upon houses and the property of manufacturers, many of whom are quite unable to pay. There arc from 20 to 30 han'. i trucks daily drawn from Frome to the coal- pits, a distance of about nine miles, by men and their wives; these return the same evening with from 300 to 500 weight of coals, which they dispose of ( if they can) at lOd. per cwt.
