There is no Tooth Powder ia the present day which maintains so exten- sive a demand as the Amboyna ; it was originally pre- pared by an eminent Dentist, and its excellent qualities have secured it a preference to all other compositions ; " it is a powerful astringent, and in most eases will remove all heats, ulcers, and gum boils from the mouth. Those who experience painful nervous aches in the face, arising from complaints in the gums or teeth, will, iu all probability, lie relieved by a liberal use of the Lotion. Both preparations are purely Vegetable. Sold by E.

THE CELEBRATED MARLE HILL MANSION AND ESTATE, On the Shirts of the Town, immediately fronting Pittville, with a Domain of 124 Acres of Free- hold Land, which completely environs the Man- sion. The Estate exonerated from Land TaXj and exempt from Tithe as it regards ihe larger Portion. BY MR. GEORGE ROBINS, At the Auction Mart, London, on Thursday, June 3, AFREEHOLD" FESTATE of very considerable Value and with such prospect- ive Advantages as are of rare Occurrence. THE MARLE HILL MANSION AND ESTATE has very long been accounted the prominent Feature in the Vicinitv of THE FASHIONABLE WATERING PLACE OF CHELTENHAM* and, in Times long passed away, the Superiority of the Mansion, and the Beauty of the Park Grounds, were alone sufficient to give it a preponderating Influence over any of its Contemporaries; but now that the « MARCH OF IMPROVEMENT" has extended this renowned Watering Place almost to the Lodge Entrance ( Pitville splendid Pavilion, Pump Room, and Grounds, being immediately en face), it surely will not be drawing too largely on Probability to prophecy that Marie Hill, with PARK GROUNDS, PLANTATIONS & SHRUB- BERIES, ALTOGETHER 124 ACRES, will soon be created into THE NEW CHELTENHAM TOWN; since the Water has been pronounced in great Abundance, and of the same Efficacy with the longer established Spas in the Town. The pecuniary Ad- vantages inseparable from this Plan render its Pro- gress certain ; and he must be a bold Arithmetician who can safely place a Limit upon the immense Wealth that will crown the Labours of such au Undertaking. There is a Frontage which progresses nearly a Mile on the Road from Cheltenham, ornamented by Plan- tations and Shrubberies of luxuriant Growth ; in Fact, Nature in its wise Contemplations seems to have suggested this most delightful Spot whereon to realize all ihe Expectations tbe most sanguine Speculator could have indulged in. It is also admirably adapted for the Residence of a FAMILY OF FORTUNE, with corresponding Offices of every Description, and to an East Indian Valetudinarian, besides an Infinity > f other Advantages, if he value Longevity, the genial Air of a Residence protected by an Amphi- Theatre of lofty Hills from the Winter's Wind, and the influential Aid of Cheltenham Water, may add Twentv Years " to his Life. In the Park Grounds are 4 ACRES OF ORNAMENTAL WATER, TERMINATED BY A WATERFALL AND CASCADE, on one Side, a romantic Bridge on the opposite Direction, and a Plantation Walk, extending nearly a Mile, encircles this delightful little Territory. There is a valuable Field approximating upon Mr. Pitt's Estate opposite, w hich will be ere long an in- dispensable and very valuable Appendage to this Property. Also an Ice- House in the Grounds, and a Mill entirely shut out from View, with two Pair of capital Stones, and an inexhaustible Supph' of Water. Particulars may be had, 28 Days prior to the Sale, at the Office <> f Messrs. PRUKN, GRIFFITHS, & PRUBN, Solicitors, Cheltenham ; Angel and Star, Oxford ; York House, Bath ; BOTHAM'S, Salt Hill; the Auc- tion Mart; and at Mr. GEORGE ROKINS'S Offices, London, with Lithographic Drawings of the Mansion and Estaie.

THE KEMPSHOTT PARK ESTATE, Nearly 1000 Acres, with Manors and Privileges, the Road to Southampton passing through the Property, in a fine Sporting Country, within Beach of Three Packs of Hounds. BY MR. GEORGE ROBINS, At the Auction Mart, London, on Thursday, the 3d of June, at Twel ve o'Clock, by Direction of ihe Execu- tors of J. C. Crooke, Esq. lately deceased; Valuable and very eligible FREE- HOLD ESTATE. It comprehends the KEMPSHOTT PARK AND SOUTHWOOD ESTATES, altogether near Nl NE HU NDRED ACRES of LAND, lying exceedingly compact, together with the Manor nnd Rights thereunto appertaining, desirably situate three miles below Basingstoke, tbe turnpike road to Winchester passing through the property. Kempshott Park has so long held a distinguished place in public opinion, that to panegyrise it would partake of the work of supererogation. There is, however, a more conclusive reason to be found in the fact of this far famed seat having been selected from all others as his favourite sporting retreat hy HIS MAJESTY THE KING, when he was Prince of Wales. This single circum- stance, while it at once silences all doubt, speaks volumes iu its favour, for 110 one has had the temerity to doubt the exceedingly fine taste of the Royal possessor. The following brief detail is, therefore, offered: only with a view to illumine those who have not had the good fortune to see it, THE MANSION IS SEATED in a beautifully timbered Park, diversified by much of hill and dale, and has for many a long yearcommanded Ihe commendation of the passing traveller. Amongst its numerous advantages may be accounted one as rare as it is desirable— that with the capability to accomo- date a distinguished family, it is so judiciously con trived, that one of more moderate pretensions may domicile here, without the great annoyance ( lo use a homely phrase) of. being u over- housed." It is, how- ever, conformably with the candour which it is believed is ( conspicuous in this hasty description to add, that although the substantiability of the Mansion cannot be questioned, it needs such ornamental repair, as will give to the new possessor an opportunity of distin- guishing himself for taste- somew hat opposed to that which prevailed in the olden times. THE PLEASURE GROUNDS AND PLANTATIONS are judiciously planned, and of luxuriant Growth. The Kitchen Gardens occupy nearly Five Acres, and for ihe most Part are enclosed by iofiy Brick Walls, clothed with Fruit Trees selected by the 41 Prince of Wales." There are Hot and Forcing Houses, Pinery, and Melon Ground— in fine, every. Thing that is sup- posed essential to contribute to Comfort will be found conspicious here. Connected with this renowned Property are two Farms, very pleasantly situate, and which may claim to be denominated THE TWO PARK FARMS, one of which, verging 011 the Plantations, is in Hand ; the other, containing 390 Acres, is on Lease ( at a very reduced Rent) to Mr. Lavington for Ten Years. Such is a short and necessarily imperfect Description of Kempshott Park, and w hich is respectfully suggested as a most desirable Purchase, either for I nvestment or Occupation, and it is to be offered for Public Compe- tition, unattended by a reserved Price. Particulars may be had 28 days prior to the Sale, at the Park ; Crown, Basingstoke; Hartford Bridge Inn ; King's Arms, Bagshot ; Dolphin, Southampton; York House, Bath ; Nayler's Hotel, Cheltenham ; Botham's, Salt- bill ; of Mr. Barker, Solicitor, Gray's Inn- square; Mr. Glover, Auctioneer, Basingstoke; Mr. Austin, at the Mart; and at Mr GEORGE ROBINS'S, where a plau of the Estaie is to be seen.

BIRMINGHAM AND LONDON JUNCTION CANAL. Mr. F. N SON, in moving that Mr. Thomas Eyre Lee he called lo the bar for the purpose of being reprimanded for his conduct respecting the Birming- ham and London Junction Canal bill, said he had no wish to prevent that individual from being, heard in his defer. ee, according to the application made by the Noble Lord iTlive) in his behalf. On the contrary, he was desirous of affording every facility for that purpose which Ihe forms of the house, allowed, having no personal hostility whatever to Mr. Lee, and being merely actuated l>\ a sense of public duty iu the part, which he had taken; In all great, undertakings of this nature, it was usual in the first instance to con- vene a meeting of the landowners whose property was to be affected by Ihe work intended to be carried on j then, after arranging the plan bf proceeding-, to de- posit iti the private bill office < i list of the subscribers for the new hill, atid liext to proceed with the evi- tlcnce. lii the present case, the landed proprietors Here not cnly unconsulled upon the measure,, but when they heard of it, they ascertained that many of the names of tlie applicants were factitious. Lord CLIVK said, that having presented Mr. Lee's petition to be heard by counsel at. ihe bar, in vindica- tion t> f his conduct from: the imputation cast upon it hy the report of. the committee, and having ascer- tained that il would he informal to hear counsel on such an occasion, though Mr. Lee might be heard in person, according to tho rules Of the house, lie Wished to shape his motion accordingly. He should, therefore move, " that Mr. Thomas Eyre Lee be now called in, and heard at. the bar in his justification." Mr. Lee was accordingly called in, and heard. He disclaimed, in the strongest tcrins, having been a party to any fraud in the progress of this bill. He had strictly complied with the forms prescribed by the house, and if there were any fictitious names on the list, it was not. with his knowledge, for he had taken the names as he found them subscribed to the letters addressed to the bankers for shares. tJpon referring to the report of the committee, he likewise found that names were there in evidence described as fictitious, which he was in a condition to prove were those of highly respectable and substantial persons in many parts of Warwickshire, several of whom he named. If some of the persons w ho had written to the bankers had made false representations, he hoped he should not. he made answerable for the acts of others, of which he had neither knowledge or even suspicion. With respect to the forms of the house, he wished to observe that the lists deposited in the private hill- office were" not always deemed final. He had often known solicitors to alter arid amend them before the second reading of the bill. In this case he repeated his declaration that he had complied with all the forms required by the house, and disclaimed in the most pointed terms his being wilfully a party to any misrepresentations, much less frauds. The work contemplated was on all hands admitted to be a most useful one, and as such he had taken a part in its introduction. As soon as Mr. Lee had withdrawn, Mr. BENSON said that nothing he had heard had changed his mind as to the culpability of Mr. Lee. Lord CI. IVE was convinced that Mr. Lee had erred from ignorance, and not from wilfulness; and that, therefore, and also in consideration of his respectable Character, the house ought to deal leniently with him. Colonel Peel, Mr. Alderman Waithmanj Mr. D. W. Harvey, and Mr. O'Connell thought the conduct of Mr. Lee had been culpable, and that he must have had a guilty know ledge of the character of the per- sons who signed the list.— Sir Robert Peel, Mr. C. W. \ V. Wynn, Mr. J. Williams, and Mr. J. Wood consi- dered Mr. Lee guilty of neglect, but not of any culpa- bility coupled with wilful deception. Sir J. Wrotteslev, Sir H. Parnell, Mr. Brougham, and Mr. Slaney, bore testimony to the high respect- ability of Mr. Lee's character, and expressed their belief that he had 110 guilty knowledge as to the nature of the transaction, but had been imposed upon by Levy and others. The following resolutions were at length agreed ttf• I. That Thomas Eyre Lee, the solicitor to the London and Birmingham Junction Canal petition, did deposit, in the Private- Bill Office of this house, a list of subscribers to the said undertaking, and did afterwards attest fhe truth and correctness of the said list before the committee to whom the said petition was referred, - 2 That it appears, by the tninufes of the evidence taken before the committee to whom the severa petitions complaining of the said subscription list were referred, that the said subscription list is a false and fictitious list. 3. That the said Thomas Eyre Lee, though warned as fo the suspicious character of the said list, did nevertheless, as agent for the Bill, attest its truth without due inquiry into the circumstances to which his attention had. been specially directed 4. That Thomas Eyre Lee be, for his said offence, called to the Bar of this house, and there reprimanded by Mr. Speaker. The SPEAK Ftt then atWrcwpd Mr. I. ee AS follows : " Thomas Eyre Leo, the House, after lengthened and mat nre consideration of the case in w hich you are involved, and having given every attention to the petition which you have presented, have, come to the conclusion that the offence which y on have committed is nf a grave and serious nature, as affecting the dignity and character of this Ilosse, and of the most dangerous consequences lo the property of individuals who may he concerned in the passing of private Bills. It has been proved to the conviction of the House that tlie subscription list which yon deposited, and which you attested before the Committee, was false and fictitious in itself; and, however severe a censure it must be to every honourable mind to receive the reprimand of this House, this House, in justice to the parties concerned in the case to which their attention lias been particularly directed, as well as with a view to prevent the recurrence of any fraud of a similar nature, and to give security to those whose interests may be concerned in private Bills, and furtner to vindicate the honour anil dignity of the House, do diiect that you be reprimanded for this offence, have, in obedience to the command of the Hoase, communicated this reprimand to you, anil I have now to acquaint you that you are discharged.'* HOUSE OF COMMONS— FRIDAY. SAJ. F, OF UFFLT The House having resolved itself into a committee for the second reading; of the Sale of Beer Bill, Mr. MONCK rose for the purpose of introducing a clause, of which he had already given notice. The licensing system which this Bill, if passed, would do away with, was founded on Ihe common law of the land. It was laid down hy all writers on this subject, that public houses were a nuisance, when they were not properly regulated, or were unnecessarily multi- plied, or were erected in improper situations. Ac- cording to this law, the licensing system was intro- duced for the purpose of preventing abuses and a- ccrta ning the character of the persons who occupied public- houses. Now if this Bill were to pass, it wonld alter the common law of the land. This Bill says there could not be too many public houses; whereas the common law said the contrary. They ought not to I c too much multiplied, nor erected in situations which would render them offensive to the public eve. This Bill, however, said they were no nuisance, if the licence duty were paid, and the revenue of the Excise increased. It ought also to be borne in mind, that this was not the first innovation of the trade in beer. Mr. Estcourt had already introduced a Bill which produced considerable alterations, but still a controuling power was vested iu the magistrates. Were this Bill to pass, however, what would be the const quence > Suppose a person of bad character to come before the magistrates, and be refused a Feence, what remedy was there against such a character? He would snap his fingers at the magistrates, aud tell them lie could sell beer without thei? permission. So that this restrictive system, recognised by the com- mon taw, and instituted for the purpose of preventing abuses, would at once be abolished. In addition to this, the good order generally preserved in places of this description was the best proof of the beneficial « ffccts of the present licensing system ; and when they considered the amount, of property vested in public houses, they would fiud that this was fully as important even as the restrictive system, which now- had existed for 3f) 0 years. Each house, at an aver- age, might be said to be increased in value to the amount of £ 500 hy the law as it now stood; and were it to be entirely abrogated, many of the present publicans would be rcduced to a state of insolvency. JMany of those persons too, it ought to be recollected, had been gentlemen's servants, and had embarked their whole property— the savings of years— in the trade. This fact alone, he thought, entitled them to the consideration of the House. The Bill altogether was objectionable, because it carried the principle of competition to a new and unnecessary extent. He was an advocate for free trade in general, even an advocate for free trade in corn, though he would not go^ at present so far on that point as the Honourable Member for Aberdeen, because he was convinced that, owing to our peculiar situation, an artificial system had been established, and it ought to be altered only by degrees; for his part, lie was con- vinced that the principle of competition would be carried into full effect, without the clause which would permit every retailer of beer to erect his house into an ale- shop. If, however, this bill unfortunately should pass, he should move a resolution to the effect that all retailers of beer should be liable, as the pub* Means now are, to have soldiers billetted on them, as well as a clause to protect publicans against vexatious informations The Hon, Member then moved the following clause:—" Provided also, and be it further enacted, that any license which shall be granted by virtue of this Act, shall not authorise the person so licensed to sell beer to be drunk or consumed on the premises so specified in such license, it being the intention of this Act to give encouragement for the sale of beer in shops, hut not to create an unlimited number of ale- hollses. 1' Sir TIIOMAS GOOCH supported the amendment. Mr. SI. ANF. Y vyas of opinion that this question ought not to be taken alOne, but as connected with many others. He admitted that the free sale of beer would bd a disadvantage to the present owners and occupiers of public- houses; but the House of Com- mons was bound to look to the general interests, not to those of any particular class. It was a fact ad- mitted on all hands, that while the consumption of almost every other article had increased, that of malt, alone had decreased. The agriculturists endeavoured to find out the cause, and they discovered that it arose from the numerous restrictions imposed on the manufacture of beer, and the duty paid by the con- sumer These restrictions and the duty did not fall on the landed proprietors, or the rich merchant who brewed his own beer, but on the poor peasant. The restrictions, too, in the licensing of public- houses, increased the price of beer, because they were in consequerlCe limited to a certain number, and not less than a million and li half a year were added to the price. Some of the vexatibus restrictions on the maltsters had already been removed, to the great credit of the Government; and he also gave them credit for the abolition of the beer duty. The Government had a powerful class to contend with in this instance; the landed proprietors, of course, were itnxiolis for fhe removal of the malt duty, but Government had the manliness to resist the proposi- tion. The Chancellor of the Exchequer had this Session removed three millions and a half of taxes: but was this bill not to pass, the relief would do the public little good, and only benefit the great beer monopolists. The two evils apprehended from the adoption of the measure were the probability of its prejudicing the owners of public houses, and inebriety and riot likely to result from the more extensive sale of malt liquors. There was no doubt that in great towns two- thirds of the beer consumed wotild be drunk in public- houses. Now the real matter in issue, in his apprehension, was, whether the Legisla- ture would by this enactment secure, on just and fair terms, a supply to the public of a wholesome, agreeable beverage ; or, by rejecting iff sanction the baneful practice of dram- drinking, ivhich had already gone to so alarming a height. This habit, he re- gretted to say, had been the means of increasing the quantum of ardent spirits drunk, as per returns, from 12 millions Of gallons in 1818, to 24 millions of gal- lons by the latest returns. The number of spirit houses had increased also 11,000, in a similar propor- tion, within that period. He hoped the measure would meet with the support of the House, for life really believed that should it be incumbered with the clause proposed by the Hon. Member for Reading, two thirds of the benefits likely to be produced by the Bill fo the country would be entirely sacrificed. " In making these observations," ( said Mr. S.) " I am aWare much may reasonably be urged on the other side ; the danger of increased facilities for disorder is not to be overlooked ; but I trust that proper regu- latiohs, to be introduced in the committee, may lessen fhe evil, without impairing the principle of the measure; and at all events I prefer some excess in drinking beer to the growing taste for ardent spirits. With regard to what is said on the hardship of the measure towards respectable publicans, no candid man can deny there is much truth in it; and if any reasonable mode can be devised to bring this measure into gradual operation, and to let the publicans and brewers down gently, without an abandonment of the interest of the public, I shall be most happy to support it/' Mr. BARCLAY supported, and Mr. WESTIRN opposed, the amendment. Sir EDWARD KNATCIIRUII. rose to express his anxiety to hear from the Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer something defined arid positive as to the provisions about to be added, and the amend ments likely to be introduced in the Committee on this Bill, so as to render it a palateable and safe measure. Such, at least, would have been the more convenient practice before the House was called on to sanction the principle of a measure so important. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER professed he was always ready to attend to that sort of sug- gestion now made hy the Hon. Baronet, or to afford to the House every species of information which it was in his power as a Member of Government to contribute for their guidance in a matter of such importance. If he had not done so in this instance, where he himself had suggested the expediency of the measure under the consideration of Parliament, he wished his reluctance to be attributed to a desire that the House should, in the first instance, be left at liberty fo decide on the principles recognized by this Bill, for the future regulation of tire beer trade in this country, than that it would be required to express its opinion on the several clauses of the Bill and the amendments about to be proposed to it. He confessed he thought the amendment proposed by the Hon. Member would not but be considered as a direct infraction on the whole principle of the Bill. And he begged to explain to the Hon. Member for Shrewsbury that the objec t of the Bill throughout was to open the trade in beer; and this would be seen, should the Committee, as it had been intended to propose so to fill up the blank in the licensing clause of the Bill, agree to insert the words two guineas; for the effect of this would be to remit a certain proportion of the tax on houses, and render that tax in future two guineas, instead of five guineas. He had witnessed with surprise the assertion of the Hon. Mover of this clause that the beer trade had all along been restricted by the common law of the land. That restraint or restriction alluded to was one established by an Act of Parliament, and by a particular statute or statutes, in opposition to the common Faw of the land. Here he conscientiously felt there was a choice of difficulties between two interests— that of the persons engaged in the trade, and that of the consumers of beer— or, in other words, the great body of the people. Was it not just that the interest of the public should be preferred to that of any class in society, however entitled to consideration that class in s « > ciety might be, as lie certainly admitted the dealers in beer were? The Hon Member opposite thought that his amendment ought to be adopted for the preservation of good order; but that, he thought, would not follow from if. To the Hon1. Member for Kent he would suy, that as long as he could secure free admission for tlie sale of beer, when he got into Committee on the Bill, he would consent to such regulations as might be deemed necessary. His principle, however, was, let the entrance to the trade be free, and afterwards devise your regulations. In deference to Hon. Members that required restrictions, he was content that, first, the new, publicans under tikis Act, should be householders, which would do away one great objection ; and next, that they should find two securities, to be bound in a bond for the payment of any penalties these persons might incur for the breach of any of the regulations prescribed. The proposal of the Hon. Member opposite was a double delusion on the publicans, whom it professed to protect, and upon the public. The second improvement, too, that, had been proposed, he should be curious to see — namely, that none but persons of character should be allowed to become intornaers. The Right Hon Gent, then referred to the resolutions of the publicans of Nottingham, who protested against his intended Bill, on the ground of the immorality superinduced by the small private breweries. Hovrcver, there was this to be said, that the poor man was not able to get his beer at home ; he, perhaps, could stay away from his work but an hour, and if he went to one of these private breweries and drank off his beer on the premises, there was at once an information against the landlord. The consequence was, the poor were driven to the public- house, and to the drinking of spirits, which was so loudly complained of as an evil, breweries, and of the drinking of beer outside the premises, was most prejudicial to morality, and set a bad example to youth, by congregating men in the street, who not merely drank, but expressed them- selves obscenely and coarsely, and it would be better that, a man drank three times more in a house where he was under some control, and set no bad example., than in the way sought by this amendment to be enforced. For these reasons he opposed the present motion, and if, when Hon. Members w ere called on to vote, they would permit the Bill to be gone through, aud then re printed, they could then be much better judges of the subject than was possible at present. Mr. Estcourt, Mr. Cripps, Mr. IMaberley, and Mr. F. Buxton supported the amendment, which was opposed by Mr. Ridley Colborne, Mr. Huskisson, and Mr. Brougham. On a division, the clause proposed by Mr. Monck, was lost by a majority of 143 to 118. HOUSE OF COMMONS— SATURDAY.

" G. It." The Noble Duke tbeti moved, tliat an humble ad- dress be presented to his Majesty, to assute his Ma- jesty that, this House laments his Majesty is suffering indisposition, and to assure bis Majesty that they unanimously hope, that by favour of Divine Provi- dence his Majesty's health will be re- established ; that this House will consider, without delay, the means by which his Majesty may be relieved front signing those documents which require the sign manual, with- out detriment to the public service. Earl GIIEY observed that this was a question of the utmost Consequence, for What they were anout to do was nothing less than delegating the Royal au- thority, and they must do it in a way that would not establish a precedent dangerous to tbe future interests of the country. The Address was then agreed to nem. dis.; and His Majesty's message was ordered to be taken into consideration to- morrow. A similar communication and proceeding took place in the House of Commons. It was officially announced in both Houses of Parliament this evening, that Prince Leopold has de- clined accepting the sovereignty of Greece.

HMFHE.— This distinguished nobleman arrived at his seat, Combermcre Abbey, on the 17th instant, after an absence of five years, when the greatest demonstrations of rejoicing were mani- fested. On his arrival at Attdlem the village pre- sented a very gay and animated appearance. The houses were profusely decorated with laurel and other evergreens, and hundreds of banners were floating in the air. Several triumphal arches were erected, composed of garlands of flowers, under which his lordship had to pass. Early in the morning the bells at Whitchurch commenced ringing a merry peal, Hie flag was hoisted on the church steeple, and cannons were fired during the whole of the tlay. The gentlemen ami tradesmen joined in procession with his lordship's tenantry at Bttrleydam, and pro- ceeded some miles on the road, to meet him and welcome his return to his native home. On Tuesday morning, ail ox was roasted at Whitchurch, which, with several sheep, & c. were distributed in the town hall totlie poor; and the rejoicing continued through- out the day.

Hill and others, against the defendant Jebb. The case ItovV made out by Mr. Detimau was, bow- ever, so weak, that Lord Tenterdcn told the Attorney. General ( who appeared for Sir Robert Hill) he did not think it was necessary that lit should address the Court in reply to Mr. Denntan.— His Lordship then staled, that the Court were of opinion the rule against the defendant JeUb must lie made absolute.— The rule was made absolute accordingly. 3To tie ? lrt, WITH IMMEDIATE POSSESSION, AGenteel HOUSE antl GARDEN, at CADOOAN PLACE, ou the Sheltuu Road, now iu the Occupation of the Rev.

It appears that about twentv minutes past teii o'clock, Mr. Robinson was on his way from Cavendish- street, Ghdrlton Row, to Piatt, where his father reside*- and when heanived at that part of the road where there are no houses,^ between Arlington Place and the end of Burlington- street, he saw a man sitting on the rails which separates i he footpath from the adjoin- ing field, but. who, on his approach, stepped into the middle of the footpath, obviously for the purpose of stopping him. The man then held out his hand, towards Mr. Robinson^ and de- manded his money. Mr. Robinson whose sight was a little defective, observed that the man held something iu his hand, but could not distinctly see what it was: he therefore hastily exclaimed, 41 What are you going to do ? What have you got your hand !" lie had no sooner uttered these words than : fellow discharged a pistol, the hall from which entered Mr. Robinson's body, below the breast- bone, carrying with it one of the buttons of the waistcoat. He then, without saying another word, or making the slightest attempt, to plunder his victim, ; prung over the fence, and ran off across the fields towards Plymouth Grove. Mr. Robinson, feeling himself wounded; immediately turned back, with the intention of proceeding to the house of his brother- in- law, Mr. Partington, surgeon, who ives- opposite All Saints' Church ; but what appears extremely ' ngular, he made no alarm or outcry of any kind. Notwith- anding the mortal nature of tbe wound he had received, tbe nfortunate young man walked as far as the end of Grosvenor- street, which is fully half a mile from the place where he was shot. Then, finding bis strength fail him, he communicated his situation to two men, who, at his request, conveyed him to Mr. Partington's house. There he was immediately put to bed, and the wound examined by Mr. Partington, who saw at once the hopeless nature of the case. Further aid was, however, promptly called in, and every thing done which surgical skill could suggest; but it was all in vafn j and the unfortunate' young man, after suffering great agony from his wound,. ex- pired a few minutes past one o'clock on Friday A reward of i>. r> 00 has been offered for the apprehension of the murderer. GUILDHALL LONDON.— On Saturday a young Welsh girl, Anne Roberts, whose appearance was most artless and interesting, was brought before Mr. Alderman Yenables* She described herself to have formed an intimacy with a young man at Birmingham, to whose professions of love she fell a ctim. She was prevailed upon to quit her service for the lrpose of accompanying him to London. They left Birmiiig- iiam on Wednesday, and arrived at the Bull and Mouth Thursday evening. —" When the coach stopped they went Iti to a public- house opposite, the young man carrying a box contain- ing her clothes and a small sum of money belonging to her, to the amount of between three and four pounds. After being a few minutes in the public- house, he left her, under- pretence of getting a lodging, and never returned. She wandered about the streets till nearly exhausted, from mental as well as bodily distress, when she was met by one of the new police, who conveyed her to the station house, where she remained the rest of the night. The alderman ordered her to be sent back to Wales, with a letter directed to the cletgyman at Welsh Pool, requesting him to give her up to her friends. VICE- CHANCELLOR'S COURT. THIS DAY.

His Honour, after entering very minutely into the circumstance* of the case, said that the question for the court was whether this did or did not fall within the description of bargains that the court coulil not softer to stand. He was decidedly of opinion that it did ; anil he therefore decreed that the sale should be entirely and absolutely set aside, a computation of the monies actually paid to Drayton being made, arid all the conveyances (' anceUeil, and that tiie defendants pay the full costs of the suit.

' On the t'Jlli inst. at his residence, at Angersleluh, near Taunton a"- ed 79, Thomas Smith wood, Esq. Lord of the Manor of ' Taunton Deane.—[ The deceased, independently of Other extensive property, was Lord of the Manor of Taunton Deane which was purchased by him a few years ago of tbe nisboo of Winchester, tile rights and privileges incidental to which Mr. South wood realised with keen solicitude. This gentleman was in many respects of very eccentric habits - his dress was plain, and his domestic arrangements of the most fi'uual character, generally dining, until lately, with hia servants in the kitchen, and insisting throughout his house- hold upon tbe observance of a ( juiet, cheerless, and uniform administration of its duties. His aversion to tbe female sex was as resolute as it was inexplicable, and not a few amusing anecdotes are afloat, illustrative of this unhallowed singularity. It is almost superfluous, therefore, to say that he was never married He had but few relatives, and those of very remote kindred His annual expenditure being slight, compared itb bis magnificent income, the value of his property at his death was unusually great, the larger portion of which would, H was i- ommonfy reported, a few years ago, have been devised to the late Lord Gilford, to whom he » l « , though very distant- ly re| uted By a recent will, however, the hulk of bis free, hold and personal estates, estimated at the lowest sum at One Hundred Thousand Pounds, is bequeathed to Mr. Robert Mattock bis servant, who has been thus splendidly requited for his services of 33 vears, having been placed at an early age in Mr Soutliwood's family by the overseers as a parish ap- prentice— Mr Mattock's vast accession of property he had certainly not contemplated, his whimsical benefactor having merely and very bluntly intimated to him at the time of making his will * BANKRUPTS, MAY 21. - Richard Bulley, sen. of Maldon, Essex, tailor.

SIR,.- Permit me to occupy a small portion of your columns From experience lie could say that the eft'ect of the hi ing that parish have the distribution of a large sum of money, bequeathed lo them as trustees by many pious individuals, for the benefit of tlie poor: t say a large sum, as it amounts to nearly £ 300 per annum. There has lately been a considerable addition to it by the death of the lessee of the Hopton farm, an estate uow worth at least £ 100 a year, lieing upwards of four, score acres; for which the lessees paid only £ 15 during a period of eighty three years. It was purchased in the year 17- 17, by money arising from the savings of different charities, consequently there is no specific manner ill which the annual income is to be expended ; and my object ill troubling you with this is to request the heads of the parish, and such as are likely to fill the office of Churchwarden, to consider whether some better method than to dole it out in bread on Sundays, or iu small sums to those who receive parochial relief, may not be adopted ; particularly as the Parliamentary Commissioners oil their late visit expressed their disapprobation of that mode of relief, except where it was ordered by the will of the donor. I believe it is well known that, from various causes, there is in the present day a greater number of decayed housekeepers, who have paid church and poor rates for many years, than ever was known at any period in the recollection of persons now living. To such cliaracters parochial relief must be always painful, and, from the stnallliess of the sniu, not a little mortifying. Suppose the greater part of tbe rent of the llopton farm was to be distributed in sums of from £ 5 to £ 10, in quarterly payments, to such persons; would it not be a very good way of disposing of it! 1 am aware that the act of one set of Churcliwaril. us w ill not be binding oil their successors; but if tbis plan should have the sanction of a parish meeting ( legally called), and prove to lie satisfactory, I think it would at least be persevered In, until a better could be discovered. By inserting these observations, you will oblige A PARISHIONER. PRINCRSS STREET, SHREWSBURY.

During the past week a beautiful collection of stained glass was placed by Mr. D. Evans, of Shrewsbury, in the eastern window of the . New Church at Stoke- upon- Trent, Staffordshire, which l'or elegance and harmony of design is probacy unri- valled by any modern attempts of the art, as au imitation of the stvle purely after the antique. The principal compartments of the window contain fifteen well proportioned figures, inserted within ovals, of ST JAMES THE GREAT, ST. PHILIP, ST. PAUL, ST. JAMES THE LESS, ST. SIMON, ST. THOMAS, ST. BARTHOLOMEW, ST, ANDREW, ST. JUDE, ST. MATTHIAS, ami the four EVANGELISTS, each bearing their appropriate insignia, and having beneath, mi a label, their respective names inscribed in Latin. In the centre of the Evangelists, at the base of the window, is a bold figure of tile Saint to whom the Church is dedicated— PETER, bear, ing bis symbol of tlie keys, and though loaded with chains, his spirited attitude and countenance seem to bespeak glory, in Loud*, imprisonment, and even death, for the glorious cause in which he was engaged. The arch of tbe window is filled with ornamental designs in brilliant colouring, among which, near the apex, are two quatrefoils, containing the arms of the See of Lichfield, aud those of the Dean. The general effect of this collection of glass is truly great, increased as it is by the peculiar mellowness of the tints, whilst the rich reflexion of tbe storied pane, shedding " The dim blaze of radiance richly clear," has spread an air of new solemnity and inspiration throughout the Kicrcd edifice ; and since the general execution is creditable to the abilities of the Artist, it is'to be desired it may remain a memorial to subsequent generations of the liberality of the Very Reverend the DF.

HOUSE OF COMMONS— TUESDAY, MAY 18. BIRMINGHAM AND LONDON CANAL. Mr. DUG DALE said he rose to move the order of the day for taking the following report of the Committee on the Birmingham and London Junction Canal Company into consideration :•— ItEPOltT. The Committee lo whom the recommitted petition of several owners and occupiers of estates ( voles, page 205, Birmingham and Loudon Junction Canal) was re- ferred, and lo whom ihe petitions of, 1 si, Thomas Wyatl; 2d, John Williams nnd others; 3d, lliehard Palerson and others, complaining of their names hav- ing hern inserted in ihe subscription list; and of, 4th, Thomas Biddle and others; & tli, Martha Lea and olhers, complaining of Iheir names having been enter- ed in Ihe lists as assenting uud lieuter, they being dissenting to the undertaking; and of, 6th, trustees of the mad from Dunchurch lo Slonebridge, complaining of the section, were referred— have, pursuant to ti e order of tbe House, examined and found- That on the 19th of February, an estimate ofthe pro. posed expense of the undertaking, together with an account of tbe monies subscribed anil the names of the subscribers, with Ihe turns by thein subscribed respec. lively, was duly lodged in the Privule Bill Office of this House. That ibe Estimate amounted to the « nm of £ 453,928. 6s. lOd. That the said subscription list represented tbe sur- names of 232 persons to an aggregate sum of £ 394,700. That on ihe 19th of February, a petition was duly presented for leave to bring iu a Bill, and that tbe said petition was referred to a Committee to report thereon. That the said Committee sat on Ihe 22d of February, when Thomas Eyre Lee, of Birmingham, tbe Solicitor to Ibe intended Bill, deposed before ihe said Com- mittee, as recorded in the Minutes of Ihe Committee Clerk, " that the said list, containing the names of the subscribers and the sums subsetibed by them is correct." That Ihe said Committee was adjourned to the 3d of March, w hen the said Thomas Eyre Lee, on the inler- logation nnd caution of nn Hon. Member, again de- posed to the truth and correctness ofthe list. That Ihe Committee, on the 4ih of March, reported that the Standing Orders were complied with, aud leave was given to bring in tbe Bill. Thatjin the 8th day of March, a Bill was brought in nnd rend a first time, and ordered lo he read a second time. That on Ihe lltli day of Mi rch, the said petitions of Thomas Wyalt, of Jolin Williams and others, Richard Paterson aud others, Thomas Biddle and others, aud Martha Lea aud others, were presented to tbe House, complaining thai ibe Standing Orders had not been complied wiih ; that the subscription. list was fallacious and not hnvu fide ; and that ihe list of owners and oc- cupiers of lands on the line nf ihe said projected under- taking, were erroneous as to assents, dissents, and neutrality.

That Ihe Committee has heard the testimony of 54 witnesses, and received ull the parole and documentary evidence of the petitioners nnd ibe ageuls of tbe Bill, upon which they have determined— Ist. Thai llie Standing Orders have not been com- plied with. 2d. That a great part of the said subscription has been proved lo represent needy und indigent persons of inferior station in life, deeply engaged in bubble companies and gambling transactions, nud Unable to pay the sums affixed to their respective names in tbe • aid list. 3d. That Ihe remainder nf the said subscription list represents many persons of a doubtful character, aud that alt the suited subscribers produced before the Committee as witnesses, proved that lliey were entered in. Ihe said subscription list, and relumed to Parlia- ment us subscribers without their knowledge or con- sent. 4ih. Thai many of the snid witnesses admitted their application, by letter, for shares in tbe said under- taking, to have been made in the months of October, November, December, 1829, nnd January, 1830, lint proved that lliey bud received no reply, paid no de- posit, received no scrip, nnd bad not been otherwise accepted nr committed as subscribers. bill. That the names of 11. ——— Griffiths, Samuel Sloue, and John Bellinghnin, entered in Ihe said sub- scription list as subscribers, representing the gross suifl of £ 7,000, are fictitious names— that such names were fictitiously used by Griffith Henry Todd, a person iu indigent circumstances, in the Rotunda in Ibe City of London, ill letters applying for shares, and set forth in Ihe Minutes of Evidence, and the said Griffith li'enry Todd signed the said lliree fictitious names of Griffiths, Stone, ami Belliughum, in addition to his own name, tu ihe petition of John Williams and others, presented to the House, on llie 1 lib of March, as the same names lie had assumed in his four implications for shares. 6lli. That the names of Benjamin Alison and Nouli Pratt, in Ihe said suhscriplion list, were used in letters applying for shares, but without their privily ; that they had a subsequent knowledge of sueii application, but that they are persons wholly unable lo provide the sums affixed' to their names, or even to pay the first deposits iheieon. 7th. That ibe names of the petitioners Richard Palerson nud William Thompson, respectable and ntHuent members of the Stuck Exchange, appear tu the Committee lo have been forged, or fraudulently used, in letters applying for shares; and thai, uiiqnesiiuii- uhlv, no evidence has been tendered lo the Committee, exeep* Ihe letters entered upon the Minutes, lo prove who Ihe writers of those letters nre, if lliey do not represent the names of the said Richurd Paleison and William Thompson. 8lh. Thai the said subscription list has been culpably so deposited ami allested by ihe said Thomas Eyre Lee, the Solicitor lo the said undertaking, under circumstances developed and recorded in the Minnies of Evidence. 91 h. That a gross violation of the privileges of ( lie House and of the spirit of ils Standing Orders has been committed. INSTRUCTION. Thai Ihe Chairman be instructed to move the House, thai Ihe mi miles of the proceedings nud the evidence taken before Ibe Cnmniillce, be laid before the House, nnd that the said minutes; wiih this report do lie on Ihe table, aud be printed ; and lo move thai tbe report he early taken into consideration, that the House may adopt such measures as it may deem meet tu vindicate ils violated privileges and dignity ; lo protect the public from a repetition of similar fraudulent practices, mid lo devise au amendment of the standing orders. This document ( said Mr. Dugdale) contained a et . lenient of facts which demanded the attention of the House; aud, after the report was received, it was his intention fo propose such an alteration in the Standing Orders as would prevent the recur- rence of such objectionable practices. The House would recollect that in the commencement of the Session a petition was presented which contained a list of the subscribers, and disclosed the object of the proposed undertaking. It was then represented that fhe estimate of the cost of the work was £ 453,000, and that £ 394,000 of that sum was sub- scribed by 232 persons. It was proved that the plan was laid down by Mr. Telford, the engineer, who gave it us his opinion that an undertaking of the nature contemplated might be accomplished. A prospectus was then issued, and two persons, whose names were Moses Levy and J E. Stokes, from the Slock Exchange, combined to set the company into motion, aud to perpetrate a gross fraud on the House and the country. The solicitor lo the concern was Mr. Eyre Lee; but he ( Mr. D.) was bound to say that so far as he and the commit, lee were able to judge, that gentleman, who was a respectable man, did not seem to be aware of the nature of the undertaking he was embarked in, and it was presumed that he had been imposed upon by the other designing people. The standing orders of Ihe House had been evaded, or rather they were iu form complied wiih, inasmuch as a list of the subscriptions was lodged iu the Private- Bill Office. To remedy the defect which permitted so unsatis- factory a document to pass through the House was one ofthe objects of the resolutions with which he meant to follow up the report. It appeared on all sides that Levy was the great planner of the scheme, and that Stokes and his assistants were his agents. Having said thus much to satisfy the House of the necessity of some protection being established in future, he would move, after the report was brought up, that the christian and sir- name, the calling and residence of every subscriber be in future deposited in the Private- Bill Office; and that no Bill should in future be introduced unless one half of the estimated sum w as subscribed for by persons who would consent to bind them- selves by contract to pay the sums respectively subscribed. Mr. BENSON approved of the resolutions so far as they went, but in his opiniou they did not go far enough, and he could not help expressing liis sur- prise that some more decided course had not been taken to meet a case of such vital importance. There could not be a doubt but that a fraud had been contemplated to a great extent on the 19th of February, when the list was lodged. In the Com- mittee, Mr. Eyre Lee, the solicitor, was called on to produce a list, which he did, and which he gave in. There were two Members of the Committee who cautioned him against persevering in the attestation of the list, because they were aware that it was a fabricated and fallacious list. They were also aware that of the assents declared some were fallacious, and letters Were read from several persons to that effect; and he ( Mr. Benson) knew from one Nobleman that his name had been made use of to assent without his sanction, and that his tenants had been induced to assent by the pointing out of his name, and under the idea that their land- lord had assented. The Committee, after a painful investigation, found that the standing orders had not been complied with, aud that, with all the Other circumstances attending the case, induced him lo think it ought to be considered as a question of privilege. In order to put the question in a tangir ble shape, he would move that Mr,. Thomas Eyre Lee, Solicitor to the London and Birmingham Junction Canal Company, be called before the House, for the purpose of being reprimanded. After some conversation, the further discussion of the subject was adjourned to Thursday. WEDNESDAY. The Viscount CLIVE presented a petition from Mr. Thomas Eyre Lee, solicitor to the Birmingham and London Canal Bill, praying that his conduct might receive the fullest investigation, and stating that he was quite unaware of any deceit having been practised on the House. Mr. C. W. W. WYNN presented a petition from fhe Magistrates of the couuty of Moutgomery, praying to be relieved from the duty of hearing the cases of insolvent debtors at Quarter Sessions. Birmingham and London Junction Canal Bubble. thank you, I'll wrile directly, and get my friend to write ; he gets his friend, whom, perhaps, 1 know ns well as liiin, but have not seen him ; these names are generally Ihe regular list thai apply for every com- pany that comes out." About thirty of the mock " Subscribers" and Petitioners were summoned and examined, the majority of whom stated their inability to pay even a deposit of £ l per share, and many admitted their application for shares in fictitious names. Six porters of the Stock Exchange, in their scarlet liveries, subscribers to the bubble, were Suc- cessively examined. Benjamin Alisttn, another witness and subscriber, described himself " in the shell- fish line," keeping an oyster table in Capel- court, aud whose address of No. 8, was frequently given in applications for bubble shares, as denoting a respectable locality". He denied having written himself; but said that when there was " a good thing," the " gentlemen" always wrote in his name, and if the concern turned out good," l used to send directly for the goods." Foreigners, uncertificated bankrupts, many indi- viduals recently u whitewashed," were subscribers, and examined as witnesses to prove their own pecuniary ueediness. The porters aud clerks of some of the brokers, at a weekly salary of 1.2s. and 15 shillings a- week, some of them under age, were also returned in this notable subscription; iu short, the Alley and Rotunda had been drained for " sub- scribers." A respectable stock- bioker, who was examined as to ihe solvency of the Subscription List, deposed as follows " What do you consider their subscriptions are Worth in the pound, from your knowledge of iheir pecuniary circumstances ?— I should be afraid lo make a bidding for them. lt Do ynn believe that if this strip had come out not at a premium, one in ten of these parties could liav paid their deposit ? — Tliey would not, certainly. " Was not their palpable purpose thai of jobbing — Speculation. " Are riot a great number of lliem parties who blew the hubbies of 1824 and 1825 ? — No doubt." The ci- devant Secretary of the Bubble Company, in his examination further developed the plot. He states that on the 9th of February he told the Solicitor, that the List " would not do, and that a great deal of revision must take place; for if it was attempted to be brought out with such a list as that, it could not succeed, unless it was supported by the advance of a large sum of money." The Secretary explained Ihis operation, as follows:— What do you mean by lhal ? — Fire or six thou- sand pounds would he necessary lo set it a- going ; if these shares were brought ollt, iiobody wotild have paid up without they were at a premium. The Report ( given in a preceding column) and Minutes of Evidence on the Birmingham and Lon- don Junction Canal Bill, printed in the Parliament- ary Papers, contain a singularly curious exposure of one of the most impudent and fraudulent" Bubble Companies" ever imposed on the Legislature or Public. The evidence also discloses Ihe secret history of the modesand frauds resorted to in 1824- 5 to infect the public with the" Share- mania," and to realize profit by fhe national insanity or speculation. The scheme in question, for cutting a canal be- tween Birmingham and the Oxford Canal, had been successively attempted for two preceding yeats, and totally failed to obtain any local support. It was, therefore, to be presumed, with the fact of several existing lines of canal navigation between the midland counties and the metropolis, that there were no great merits in the project. It was, however, deemed otherwise by a notori- ous Jew, " Marlborough Levy," of Goodman's- Fields, lately deceased, well- known in the City and West End of the town for usurious loans and post obit speculations. Levy had been long and emi- nently qualified for the business of " subscribing a Company." He had been convicted iu 1812 at the Old Bailey, of" Grand Larceny," for stealing some silver and copper in a baker's shop. It was his habit fo purchase retail articles and tender a one- pound note, and to take an opportunity of bolting with the note, the change, and the goods— a mode of making cent, per cent, disapproved of by the shopkeepers. By similar and more successful arts, Mr. Moses Levy subsequently became a " Capital- ist," added the name of Lyon to his former cog- nomen, and engaged in transactions of a wider and more profitable range; but, to tbe credit of Ihe City, he was not a member of the Stock Exchange, and was discountenanced by all the respectable brokers and merchants even of his own persuasion. Unfortunately, Mr. Levy died immediately before the Session, and Before the salutary discipline of Newgate could be again awarded to him. Mr. Levy's first movements are stated by a sub- agent, Mr. J. E. Stokes, a stock- broker, in the evidence as follows:— " Mr. Moses Lyon Levy came lo rtic ( says the wit- ness) about eight or nine months ago, and said he had a very fine Company coming forward, and knowing tbe interest I had in a great many companies, perhaps as many us 20, in the years 1824, 5, and 6, he wished me to undertake the management of it, so far as re- garded lire Stock Exchange. I met him several limes between six and. eight in the morning at his residence in Great Alie slreet, Goodman's fields ; so early, in order that we should not be seen together, because operations in those things are generally con ducted very privately." An agreement was then made to share the spoil on the equitable principle of moieties. 11 Did lie urge yon,'* the witness was asked, " to write for shares - Daily ; that was the grand object, to get as many as we could. " Did you induce severul to write for shares?— I suppose at least from one to two hundred. " What were the general circumstances of these persons ? — What we call premium- hunters; men who are connected wiih the Slock Exchange aud with Shares of all kinds, who write for every thing without inquiring into the nature of it. I do uot think the whole could have paid on Ihe average a share a piece ; they are generally poor, these sorl of men." " Private Meetings took place once," says the witness Stokes, " by appointment, at the top of Angel- court, Throgmorton- street; it is a private place— seldom any one passes." The witness got every body he could to" write for shares;" notices were stuck up from time to time during Ihe winter upon the Stock Exchange, announcing that the Scrip would be " out" in a short time, and adver- tisements in the Papers announced the prospective benefits of the project. The witness describes the ultimate objects of the concoctors to " rig the shares," aud gave the following simple answer and definition respecting the phrase :— " Explain to the Committee that term ?— Rigging the shares is, if we find the parties seem disposed to go against ihe thing, and to sell for lime under an impression that the thing is not likely lo succeed, we employ others ami ourselves, and purchase up Ihe whole of llie shares, or twice or three times the quail, lily, and make them pay whatever premium we choose, if we can accomplish our object; thai is the one side : the reverse way is, if we find the public disposed to take ihe thing, and over- anxious lo have shares, we knock ihetn up lo as high a premium as we can, uud lei lliein have them all. " Did you understand that ihe countrymen were lo have hurl the shares in this instance?— There win a party who was lo oppose il, who were lo have been made to pay up to as high as twelve. " Did Mr. Levy stale to you that the great object with thein was to buy ( lie shares, aud to terminate ihe opposition ? — Yes ; they would buy up Ibe whole of the shares, and go ns high as twelve, in order to get the vv hole concern into their own bauds." This witness, who admitted his pecuniary ina bility, had £ 27,000 allotted to him iu the List, and owned that he instigated two or three hundred applications for shares, " especially the waiters I told the waiters, you apply for Ihis Company; we give them generally a few Shares as a sort of dou ceur— a sort of compliment for their civility and attention." He spoke to the general character of the Subscription List, previously admitting that the possession of money was no part of the qualification of a Shareholder, and that he would not trust the greater part of theSubscribers he obtained with £ 5 " That was nn pari of the qmdification of a share holder ? — None al all iu these things, on their first coming out; very few apply for shares who really want them. " Pass your eye over that lisl ( banding it to him), and state to the Committee the whole of those whom you influenced to write? — 1 should think at least three fourths. " Look through the list ?— These are all the old regular applicants for shares ; all the old names; I have looked over the list, and I should think, perhaps, nt least about one. third direct, and perhaps one- half indirect, of the applications made through me: for instance, I say to a party conuected with the Stock Exchange, I have got a Company coming out, called the Loudon and Birmingham Canal, you w rite— Oh ' 44 Theshares'were to be got off to the public?— Yes, _ Id the applicants* they were to become the legitimate hold ers, aud unt Tell us what you mean by Ihe application of£ 5000 — is il What is'ealled rigging?— A man would know, when he came into ibe inarkef, that unless the list bore a premium tbey would not go down. " To make them bear a premium, it is necessary to have some money ?— Yes, to buy them up." " the " natural" and beneficial consequence of this operation the wiluess subsequently staled :— " The advance that you intimated as necessary, was the money necessary iu such operations to take the share9 from that class of people to Ihe public, at a premium ? — It was to take lliein from that class of people when they came into the market. " Is it not thnt operation which is generally termed ' rigging' Oil the Slock Exchange ? — It may have that term, probably ; but it is a very common operation, if shares come out at a premium, which is only done by ceriain parties purchasing them, the public naturally come into it, and purchase thcih afterwards." This operation of rigging is analogous to the cross of the Prize Ring. Scrip of every description, and bubble shares in particular, are " pumped up fo a premium" through the agency and resources of some ° capitalist," whose money til the hands of parties in the secret is temporarily sacrificed to buy up a given scrip in the Share Market, which pur- chases, continued with mock avidity on the part of the buyer, run up to a premium ( which daily rises from the gullibility of the public), ultimately enabling the " riggers" to resell at higher prices, and " bring themselves home" with interest. The whole evidence, occupying 135 folio pages, is extremely valuable and instructive as a complete detection and public exposure of gambling frauds, so destructve of commercial integrity and honest enterprise. MK, COBBETT. " TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING HERALD. Shrewsbury, May 13. Sift, I read, in the London newspapers, fhe Editors of which are imposed upon by such papers as the Mercury of Leeds and Guardian of Manchester, that " we have seen the worst." 1 read,- in a speech of Lord Goderieh, that " there is no room for de- spondency." These two papers, and their like, have been telling us the same thing for these two years; and this Lord, you know, boasted of" our unparalleled prosperity" just 15 months before the " late Panic" came. But, suppose that We have seen the worst ; what is that ?— Judge from the following facts:— The finest Cheshire cheese would not yesterday ( fair day), at this town, sell for more than about thirty- fire shillings, the hundred weight of six score pounds. It was almost all carried away by the farmers, who really Seemed almost in tears. The same cheese is selling in the shops, by the single cheese, at fourpence a pou> d ; that is, for forty shillings the hundred weight of six score pounds. " Seeing is believingand tasting and touching are the " naked truth." So I send you a wedge of cheese, cut out of a single cheese, just now bought by Mr. William Clark, of Charles- street, Wolverhampton, at 4d. the pound, which you will find to be of Ihe very best quality. This cheese, while the small paper- money was abundant, used to sell at from 65s. to 75s. the six score pounds. Judge you, then, of the state of the farmer, who has still the same rent, taxes, and rates to pay, as he bad to pay when the cheese brought the last- mentioned prices ! Judge you of the state of a shopkeeper, who lives by supplying that farmer and his labourers. Judge you of the state of the manufacturer, who has to supply that shopkeeper. In short, all are in one common state of ruin or decay. As the farmers drop, the landowners suffer; and judge of the state of a landlord, who, with insolvent tenants, has the same interest on mortgage, and the same taxes and rates to pay, that he had to pay when he had a solvent and punctual tenantry. The whole of the middle class are in a state of despondency not to be described; and it will, 1 can assure Lord Goderich, require, to revive their spirits, something more distinct and positive than what they find iu his spcech. 1 am, Sir, your most obedient servant, W. COBB ETT. i$ ti0ceUaneottd Intelligence. The Paris papers of Tuesday contain letters from Toulon of the 4th and 5th inst. They describe what is very unusual in France, a Prince of the Blood engaged in a naval review. " Nothing could be finer," says a private letter, « than to see 150 vessels ranged in order of battle, with all their flags out; the crews manning the yards; the shore covered with troops, and an immense crowd of spectators."— The Gazette de Prance says that Port Mahon will be the general entrepot for this formidable armament. It adds, " before the 25th inst. 35,000 Frenchmen will be disembarked on the coast of Africa ; the government of England long since abolished the trade in negroes ; that of France will soon put an end to the captivity of whites." The following speech was made by M. Bourmont to the authorities presented to him at Marseilles, as well as to the Chamber of Commerce :—" Every necessary measure has been taken to render success to the expedition that I am now going to command, and the result will prove particularly advantageous to the town of Marseilles, which has greatly suffered by this war. France will take possession of Algiers, and form establishments for commerce as well as colonies, perhaps governed by a Prince of France. In either case, communications will be opened with the interior of Africa ; and in regard to the reports that the English will oppose us, it is without the least founda- tion. France has strength enough to make herself respected. Besides, have not the English a king in Greece of their own making ?" The Corporation of Dublin have an intention of starting Sir Charles Wetherell as a representative for the Irish metropolis the next vacancy. At an auction of the furniture belonging to the late Mrs. Sunderland, of Langlands Hall, near Carttnel, Cumberland, on Wednesday week, a chest of drawers was among the articles exposed to sale. An old man present, knowing his own workmanship-, proceeded lo show a secret drawer which he had ingeniously placed in the chest, when lo! upon opening it 500 guineas were discovered, which had lain there unknown for many years. Well- executed forgeries of Bank of England jive and ten pound notes arc iu circulation. They are 6o close an imitation of Ihe genuine ones, that it is very difficult to detect them. The principal defect is in the quality of the paper, which bears a rather dark and glossy appearance. TUE HA POD ESTATE, SOUTH WALES.— This splendid seat and demesne of the late Colonel Johnes, M. P. in the most delightful part of South Wales, including a little principality exceeding thirteen thousand acrcs of laud, is announced in our columus to- day by Mr. George Robins. The Castle of Aberystwith, and theadvowson of Eglwys Newydd, form a part of this noble domain. The scenery which encompasses this happy retreat has been compared with the most beautiful part of Switzerland. The river Ystwith pursues its quiet and circuitous course through this vast property, Upon which is the Devil's Bridge ( from which Mr. Arnold's celebrated Opera is taken). It is probably the largest, and certainly the most interesting pro- perty that has been offered to public competition. The advertisement professes only to give a short outline; the intermediate space is to be filled up when Mr. Robins has visited this splendid seat. The Library of the Colonel, which cost more than £ 20,000, includes the celebrated Pesaro Collection, so remarkable for its fertility in the Aldine Editions of the Classics. The Collection of Pictures includes many of rare and estimable qualities. The marble statues are highly eulogized, and if we may credit general report, the sight of this once hospitable and classic abode will amply compensate the tourist aud visitor. FALL OF THE STEEPLE OF ORFORD CHURCH.— On Sunday, between the hours of eight and nine in the morning, the good people af the borough of Orford, in the county of Suffolk, were fearfully alarmed at a shock like that of an earthquake, and finding themselves enveloped in a cloud of dust. When this latter source of wonder had in Some measure cleared away, they discovered that a great portion of the steeple of their parish church, or rather chapel, which had long been in a shattered condition, had fallen to the ground, leaving only the walls to the north and east standing, and the bells, with their heavy frame- work, suspended from them. The sexton, who had been in the belfry tolling the eight o'clock bell, hud providentially left the church some minutes. The fall of the two sides was like that of an avalanche, beginning at the base. It is hourly expected that the remaining Sides will fall, the bells hanging from them ( five in number) being very heavy ; and a fissure in the northern wall, which is gradually increasing, ex cites the greatest fear that nearly the whole of the remaining iuins, bells and all, will fall ou thereof of the body of the church, destroying it and the excellei i organ it coutaius, aud making a fearful wreck of that which has so loug beeu a venerable reljc of the olden times. On Saturday afternoon one of the large Theatres of the London University was crowded to excess, it having been announced that the distribution of prizes to the more successful students in the Medical Classes would be made. There were present the Earl Darnley, Lord Auckland, Lord John Russell, Mr. Fazakerley, M. P. Dr. Birkbeck, and most of the Members of the Council. Sir James Graham, Bart, presided. The chairman having opened the business of the day, the Warden read the explanations as to the order of granting prizes. A gold medal and two silver ones were to be given to each class, and certi- ficates of honour to all the students who had attained a certain degree of excellence in their answers, to questions previously fixed by the Professors. He then read a report of the proceedings of the second session, which was of a favourable nature. In 1828 and 1829 there had been 198 students in the medical Classes, but in the present session they had increased to 288 ; in each class there were double the number of students of last year. The zeal manifested by the students was highly favourable, and it might be expected that safe and able general practitioners would be sent from the University. One gold and two'silver medals were then delivered to the success- ful candidates in the classes of the practice of Medi- cine, Anatomy, Materia Medica-, Physiology, Surgery, Midwifery, Chemistry, Comparative Anatomy, and Demonstrative Anatomy; and honorary certificates to a great many other students. THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE.— The military almanack 6f Russia affirms, that the dominions of this immense empire extend over a surface of 373,174 German square miles, of which 72,361 are comprised in Europe ( independently of 2293, forming the king- dom of Poland); 276,020 are in Asia, to which must be added the recent acquisitions in Turkey; and 24,000 in America. It is remarked on this oc- casion, that the whole surface of Europe does not exceed 156,000 of such miles. The Russian popula- tion is reported fo amount to 60,000,000 of souls; viz. 45,000,000 in Europe ; about 3,700,000 in tbe Polish monarchy ; from 11,000,000 to 12,000,000 in Asia; and 50,000 in America. The empire con- tains 1840 cities and towns, 1210 slobodie and fortresses, and 227,400 villages and hamlets. Among the various races which people it, are 52,000,000 of Slavonians, 3,000,000 of Asiatics, 2,000,000 of Tartars, and 500,000 Armenians. Ac- cording to the last report made up in the statistical section of the ministry of the interior at St. Peters- burgh, fhe number of Hussian Jews paying taxes is 422,140 throughout the empire. Of this number 5,227 are engaged in commerce, 413,607 are me- chanics, shopkeepers, & c. and 3606 only are en- gaged in agricultural pursuits. SIMPLICITY OF COSTUME.— The greatest beauty in dress is that which is most simple, and, at the same time, gracefully adapted to exhibit the natural beauty of the female form. This simplicity should be observed even in colour; a profusion of tawdry and glaring colours bespeaks a tasteless and vulgar mind, even if the wearer were a Duchess. Colour should also always be adapted to complexion. Ladies with delicate rosy complexions bear white and light- blue better tliau dark colours, while, on the contrary, sallow hues of complexion will not bear these colours near them, and imperatively re- quire dark quiet colours to give them beauty ; yel- low is the most trying and dangerous of all, and can only be worn by the rich- toned healthy- looking brunette. ALIMENTARY TUBERCLE OF VAN DIEMEN'S LANI>— A singular substance has been found, at the depth of a foot, or a foot and a half, in that country. It has not yet been described, but is called indigenous bread. It is covercd with a thin skin, has a rounded form, like a potatoe or yam, and is sometimes as large as a man's head. When cut, it appears as if composed of a spongy mass, containing a considerable quantity of alimentary matter. No. root, or fibre, has been found adhering to it, so that sometimes it has been thought to be a sort of terrestrial polypus, possessing a principle of animal life. The only indication of its presence which the natives have, is the occurrence of an ex- ceedingly small leaf, which rises from the earth, and is connected with it by every thin and delicate fibres, that break whenever the tubercle is raised. — Asiatic Journal. TORRINGTON.— At our late fair a wealthy farmer, whose spirits the barley broth had elevated above the level of his understanding, was prevailed upon by a sharper, dressed in the habit of a sailor, to carry dame home a curious present as a fairing, for the purpose of drying her clothes on, which was a piece of cord- age, coloured with all the various hues of the rain- bow, and which the artful knave declared to be a part of the Equinoctial Line, which he had lately brought home from a southern voyage ; and, being the last he had left, was prevailed upon to part with it at the re- duced price of a sovereign. When the fumes of the liquor had subsided in the head of the purchaser, the impostor was sought for ( we scarce need say) in vain ; for, wherever he might have been South, it is evident he had travelled too far North to hazard an examina- tion before the Magistrates.— North Devon Journal. The Frankfort Gazette communicates some pleasing details of the progress of civilization in the frontier provinces on the Danube. The exertions of the Russians in these quarters are deserving of the highest praise; and in a short time the existence of a strong and civilized government may raise Wallachia and Moldavia from the condition of barbarous deserts or oppressed nurseries of the plague, into the rank of members of the European commu Hy. It is a remarkable fact that the clerk of the church at Bawtry, William Deane, has now fulfilled the duties of his office during a period of 63 yeurS, aiid that he can still read without the aid of specta- cles. This venerable character will have com- pleted the 93d year of his age on Ihe 23d of the present month.— Doncasier Gazette. MARRIAGE CERTIFICATES.— It has been stated that marriage certificates must be made on a 5s. stamp, linder a penalty of £ 50, & c. Such paragraph requires, perhaps, some explanation, as to what is deemed a " marriage certificate" within the mean- ing of Ihe Stamp Act. It is quite clear that the Act only applies to certificates granted by and under the hand of the Minister ; but an examined copy of a marriage register, such as is requisite for the proving of marriage in a Court of Law, requires no stamp. ECONOMY AND RETRENCHMENT.— We take the following remarks, the truth of which must come home to every man's conviction and expfcrience, ft- om an article in the last number of" Blackwood's Maga- zine," entitled " The Silent Member:"—" That the government i » not quick- sighted in discovering what reduction can be made, w ithout impairing the efficient discharge of the public duties, we know from experi- ence. The fact is established by this curious evi- dence, that every year, when hard- pushed, they do make reductions, which they declared it impossible to make the preceding year, When they are not so hard pushed. For example— in 1823 further reduc- tions are impossible: in 1824 they take place, in 1825 not another shilling can be saved with a due regard to the efficient discharge of the public service: in 1826 the public service is efficiently discharged upon a reduced expenditure of a million or two. In 1827 they have cut down all salaries to the lowest practicable point: In 1828 the lowest point sinks a little lower. In 1829 the government cannot be carried on if retrenchment is pressed beyond its then limit: In 1830 that limit is reduced, and still the BURSTING OF A STEAM BOILER ON THE RIVER MISSISSIPPI.,- Tlie subjoined is a detail of the blow- ing- up of the Helen Macgregor steam vessel, briefly mentioned in a former paper: — " Sta te of Kentucky, United States, March 10th, 1830.— The following is an outline, but correct state- ment, of an accident, hy the power of steam, which is of truth the most shocking that ever happened on this side of the Atlantic. On the 27th ult. 1 left New Orleans on board one of the first- class of what they term here Steam- Boats, called the Helen Macgrcgor, about 2000 miles up the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. On the morning of the 2d inst. we had accomplished about 1000 miles of the way, when we drew nigh the landing place of the city or rather town of Memphis, in the State of Tennesee, and about 200 miles from the mouth of the latter river •, there being freight to get on board, gave those who chose a little time to go on shore. The bell had rung to announce the departure of the boat, when myself and a Frenchman made our way to get on board; perceiving the crew in the act of loosening the moorings, the Frenchman was very eager, as also myself, to get there ; hut how fatal was this to him ! 1 was now about three yards off terra firma, and my companion had or was in the act of Stepping on the vessel, when, shocking to relate, the boiler burst; the motion threw me by good luck oil a floating raft kept for supplying fuel for the boats. It was some seCotids before my recollection came to enable me to rise : hut in the posture of so doing I tVas again crowded down by the falling of pieces of machinery, timber, & c. with pieces of human bodies, legs, arms, heads, & c. all in a complete mummy. I lay in this situation till the woeful shower was ended ; then with feelings not to be described surveyed the Wreck of human life. Immediately over the boiler- deck was the location for deck passengers ; here a most dreadful havoc wits made ; the number ascer- tained by the books amounted to abbut 300, out of which 45 met instant death ; above 50 were either more or less dreadfully mangled, and five more died government is carried on. This is the history of withirt two hours, making in all about 110 persons ministerial economy.

That this will be the effect ofthe bill, not arriving, some having come the distance of 2000 will be best explained by my stating my own case. I miles i some came from the interior of several of the Two years ago 1 purchased the lease of a public house, which cost me £ 2500; £ 1000 of this was my own bona fide property which I bad slaved in the same business twelve years to accumulate. The brewtr lent me the rest, and took my lease and a power of attorney as security. My house under this new measure will probably be reduced in value to the £ 1500 the brewer has on it. The deficiency which my trade will experience will prevent me paying off So enormous a loan, add I must either re- sign my house to the brewer, or he will legally take possession of it. Thus the brewer will get all his money in a house which from its construction will, under the " free system," always secure him good interest, but I must be compelled to resign the hard earnings of years, and driven into the world penny- less. Well may the brewers be content. The bill is a positive good to them, by the spoliation of the publican. My case is the case of at least 2000 publicans." ROMANCE IN LAW.— A very curious case came to be tried on Wednesday, in the Vice- Chancellor's Court. It was at the instance of a Mrs. Tyler, to set aside certain deeds of conveyance, which had been executed by her deceased nephew, Griffith Jenkins. Jenkins had been a youug man of disso- lute habits, who had very considerable property ; but his grand. father, an attorney, had kept him in ignorance of the real nature of his interest in his estates— he believed that his mother was tenant in tail, and that his own interest was merely reversion- ary. He ran away from home one day, and enlisted in the 13th Light Dragoons. Here he made the acquaintance of the Quarter- master, who, knowing shmething of his prospects, supplied him with States of the Union, and scarcely two came from the Same place of dwelling. It was impossible to do more than bury those whose bodies were in any way com- pact— and a small grove of trees on the banks of the river marks the last homes of those fell victims to this unrivalled catastrophe. All the dismembered parts were sunk in the middle ofthe river. My companion was the least disfigured ; the cap of the boiler had carried away about one inch and a half from off the crown of his head ; he was interred in the regular grave- yard, he being in a filuent circumstances. The clerk of the boat collected all that appertained to the deceased, making an inventory of the same, and deposited them in the Custom- house in the city. What is more surprising is, that when the boiler flew in pieces, the main pieces passed through the bow of the vessel, and also the berths, where there were seven of the hands asleep, and never injured one of them ! The pilot was blown up with the wheel in his hands, and fell with it into the water, which was the means of keeping him afloat, as both his thighs were broken. The boat was towed up in two days after, during which 1 took the opportunity of writing these few lines, which no doubt you will let be known to those it may interest, it being only one of those acci- dents which happen on those rivers by the high- pressure engines. No blame is attached to tha engineer, he being in part owner; be also met his end. At the time of the explosion there were 450 persons on board, and 600 tons freight; if it had happened in the centre of the river more dreadful would have been the result, as it is very rapid and deep.

WILSOM COLLINS. master left the regiment at this time, and bought a INTERCOURSE WITH INDIA.— The intercourse public house of an auctioneer of the name of Drayton, between Liverpool, Bombay, and Calcutta is now Drayton took Jenkins's debt of £ 265 in part payment, becoming quick as well as regular. Vessels sail bought Jenkins's discharge from the regiment for 75 guineas, and purchased the Quarter- master's rever- sionary interest for £ 700. This happened in 1808. Jenkins went abroad immediately afterwards, as a common sailor ; and returned in 1816, worn out, and a cripple. During his absence, Drayton had disco- vered that Jenkins was the tenant in tail of the estates in Wales, and consequently that his purchase of the reversionary interest was good for nothing. He sought him out, therefore, and induced him to exe- cute in due form, a conveyance of the whole estate. In consideration of this, Jenkins was allowed 30s. a- week. He died in 1819. The estates are now sup posed to he worth £ 100,000. The sum paid for them in all amounted to £ 1,400. The proceedings were against Drayton, and against Mr. Sergeant Wilde ( then an attorney), and his partner, who had not only acted as Drayton's attorney, but had em- barked in the speculation, by advancing one- half of the purchase money. The defence was, that the purchase in question was attended with great risk— that the value of the estates was unknown— that in truth it was a pure speculation. The pleadings have closed, but judgment has not been given. BURSTING OF THE READING WATER WORKS TANK.—' Ihis morning, about two o'clock, the water- tank on Castle Hill, calculated to hold 7000 barrels, having been half- filled, and the pumps continuing at work, the pressure became too heavy for the foundation, and about thirty feet of the north- east side burst open. Such was the force of ihe water, that masses of the brick- work ( some pieces full four feet by- three) were carried a dis- tance of 23 yards; the door and windows of Mr. Monck's lodge, at the entrance of Coley- Walk, were forced in, and tbe water ( which rose to the height of four or live inches above. Ihe window- sill) rushed into Ihe room, when the inmates awoke, and found Iheir beds floating ; and it was with difficulty a child was saved from being drowned. It was for- tunate for the cottagers that the wafer in the tank had only reached to about six inches up the iron- work ; for had it been full, their dwelling must inevitably have been swept away. The water overflowed the meadow and land adjoining. From tbe top of Castle- street to Coley- street there was a perfect stream, and many of the cellars were flooded. We are happy to say no other material damage was effected. The whole must be taken down and rebuilt, there being hardly a brick remaining in the fabric which is uot displaced from its original position. The loss to the Water Com- pany, we hear, will be between £ 1000 and £ 2000. It is rather surprising that the parties engaged should have been so much out in their calculation as to have placed the iron- work ou a foundation from this port for the East Indies at stated periods, and the voyage hence is generally performed in a shorter time than by ships sailing from other ports. Thus the frigate- built ship St. George, Capt.
