After a series of experiments, much labour, ud perseverance, he at length produced the PEARL OINTMENT, which, in a long and very extensive practice, he fouud to be almost invariably successful. The present Possessor, the Doctor's Grandson, ha been in the habit of preparing and distributing it gratuitously) t< » the afflicted For many'years with thet same success, until at length the applications for it becaiite so numerous from different parts Of the king- l » m, that lie was compelled either to abandon the preparation of it altogether ( from the great expense which he incurred) or introduce it to the Public on le. At the earnest entreaties of many persons of respectability, who had witnessed its beneficial ef- fects, and after the. most mature consideration on hi own part, the Possessor has decided upon the iatter i » lah. The extraordinary efficacy o'f this Ointment lias been fully proved for forty years ; iu many iuve terate cancerous eases it has effectually cured those who had previously laboured under the agonising apprehensions of surgical operations. It is entirely . free from offensive smell ; and from the harmless nature itif the ingredients, it may be applied to children ' of the most tender years.

SS THAN THREE MINUTES, BY ANN IMG's MALTA EXOTIC.— Nothing can be more deserving of public con- fidence and patronage than the fact ol the proprietor's offering to cure the afflicted gratis, without requiring them to purchase even afler ihe cure is performed. The following is taken from the Weekly Dispatch : — It is a positive fact that when fhe Proprietor called to have the above advertisement inserted the Publisher was labouring severely with the Head- Ache, which had afflicted him two days incessantly ; Mr.' Manning requested him to put the Malta Exotic to the test— this was accordingly done, and in about one minute he declared himself perfectly free from pain, to the great astonishment of several gentlemen then present in the office. The Malta Exotic is prepared solely by Mr. Man- ning, Surry Canal. Wharf, Old Kent Road, and sold Wholesale iit all the London Patent M- edicine Ware- houses, and Retail by Messrs. W. & J.

The reports in circulation this morning respecting his Majesty are certainly very contradictory, hut all imr information leatls us to believe that the last three favourable bulletins arc not to be regarded as indicative of any permanent improvement. In fact, though every body is anxious to discover manifesta- tions of a cheering description, we fear, from our knowledge of the actual state of the King, that there is scarcely a chance of his Majesty's recovery. The immediate danger, however, seems to be re- moved ; and we are glad to stale that the King is more free from pain than he has been during the last week. The Duke of Wellingtoft did hot think it necessary to grt dow n to Windsor this morning.

FOREIGN CURIOSITIES.— We understand the cargo of condemned seizures, now selling, duty free, in St. Julian's Auction Room, in this town, are of the most rare and splendid description ; in fact it may be said, " we shall ne'er look ou their lilte again."— The renowned Captain Johnson, of St Helena memory, we hear is the deputed salesman for this matchless forfeited cargo of Oriental treasure:— See Advert.

THE WEATHER.— The accounts from the High- lands show to what an extremity the cold prevailed the week before last On Friday the Caledonian coach drove upwards of 20 miles of the road between Blair and Inverness through deep snow, and the higher range of the Grampians appeared in the same covering.

Clive The Viscount Clive Henry Clire, Esq. Sir W. W. Wynn, Bart. Major Brown * Mr. George Mr. Newell Mr. Wood Mr. White Tenants. Domestics. Tradesmen^ • It was intended that Major Brown should have been a Pall- Bearer, with Joseph Lrtxdale., Esq..; but the latter gen- tlemau. being in London, alld in consequence unable to attend, Major Brown followed'the Mourners as a Friend. The Body, ill the Procession to Ihe Church, was covered by a Velvet Pall, enriched with ten es- cutcheons, the Coronet on the top. The Service was performed in a most impressive maimer by the Rev. William Clive^ M. A. Vicar of Welsh Pool; and on its conclusion the Cliref Mourner, and the other Mouruers, descended into the Vault, to take a last farewell of those loved remains on which the tomb was about to be closed for ever. An elegant collation for the attendants, & c. to partake of after the Funeral was prepared at Oake- ley Park ; and refreshments for those persons who had the care of the' carriages, & c. were provided at Bromueld ; the whole of fhe ceremony being com- pleted by about half past two o7clock. When fhe Funeral left Wal ot Park, a general exclamation of sorrow burst from the assembled spectators, and from the wholehousehold; and was responded to by the crowds that lined the entire road through the Pafk, the villages of Kempton, Aston, Newton, Oiubury, and Iiromfield.—- The bells at the different churches ftear the line of route tolled during the progress of the Procession; and at Ludlow, as also at the places above- mentioned, the houses and shops were closed*. The order preserved by the prOceSsion on its route from Walcot Park to Bromfield, together with the superior outfit and general arrangement of the Funeral, were much admired ; and the whole re- ceived the high approval of the distinguished par- ties most interested in the solemn and mournful cefemony.

On this point she has little to fear, as few there are, we think, but. must be satisfied, if not with single portraits, at least with the general effect of the tout ensemble— Whilst on this subject we must not omit to mention, that Madame Tussaud has provided a Quadrille Band, which every evening contributes to the amusement of the company.— See Advertisement. BIRMINGHAM.— The income of the Royal Free Gianunar School, in this town, will shortly be in- creased, by the expiration of leases, to an immense extent; ahd in order to prepare for a variety of changes then to be introduced, the Governors of the School have framed a Bill, now before Parliament^ for the future Regulation of its affairs. One of the clauscs of the proposed Bill was, that none but Members of the Church of England should be Governors of the School. This has caused great opposition in the town 5 and in consequence the clause has been withdrawn — What the feeling of those who espouse the one side of the question in this dispute is, may be conjectured from the following extract of a letter published in the course of the controversy :— " I rejoice with yoli, that the Governors of the Free School hav6 consented to abandon, at least for the present, their Bill before Parliament in the ob- noxious state in which it was first introduced y aud I sincerely hope that they will allow the following ten gentlemen to be added to the number of their corpo- ration when they next apply ; for it is not t « Ire expected, that so small a number as twenty persons", Who have nothing on earth to recommend them but their respectability, integrity, and devotion ta 1 things as they arecan possibly manage the affairs of so rhomentous a concern without further assistance. I should recommend, therefore, that there be added to their present number, the following ten ex officio members:— The High and Low Bailiffs, as clerks of the market— the principal flesh and ale conners, as inspectors of provisions^— the chairman of the Political tJnion— the president c^ f the Mechanics' Institution— the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce— the high priest of the JeWs— and tire senior ministers, ( I beg their pardon,) clergymen of the Ebenezer and Shad well- street chapels. Thus will they have pro- vided representatives for the bodily, spiritual, and iempomi'interests of the rising generation of << all sorts and conditions of men and thus, by the constant flnctuation of the ex officio members of the corporation^ they will amply provide for the continual improvement, which is necessary to keep pace with the march of intellect, and the liberality of the day; and they will, moreover, undoubtedly produce that unanimity, harmony, and concord, which is desirable, and effect, as it were, a fresh stimulus, like yeast, ( or cast, if you please,) amongst the present evaporated, unleavened energies of the existing inefficient mass, which certainly requires to be kept in a higher state of fermentation than at present." SHREWSBURY SHOW. ' The ancient Festival of SHREWSBURY SHOW was celebrated, with increased splendour, on Monday- last. The town, at an early hour, began to assume, an appearance of bustle— though the morning was any thing liut fine, several sharp showers occurring, which served to tast a damp over the preliminaries of the day ; for notwithstanding the bells of our seve- ral churches sent forth at intervals their harmonious peals, yet rain it would. — However, the several Com- panies began to assemble at 12 o'clock, in their usual stations of muster; and proceeded at 1 to the Castle ; from whence, with a " little sun" and some " little rain," they passed along Castle Street, High Pave- ment, Pride Hill, and Mardol, towards Kingsland, in the following order, the line of procession being unu- sually thronged with spectators anxious to witness the gradual improvement of the Pageantry : — MASTER CORD W AIM- ItS, Frecedcd by their Beadle bearing a Battle Axe, and CRISPIN and CRISIMMJS, PatrQlls of the " Art, Trade, Mystery.

BA « MO( JTH, OMI June, 1830. \ To the Editor of the Salopian Journal. SIR, . ,- . Y' !. Allured by the advertisement hi your last Joi^ ruat, 1 was inducecf to procure a copy of the genuine twopenny edition of Mr. Slaney's speech. The Honourable Member beats Sir Abel Handy hollow the w orthy baronet's chief invention was that of trans- forming deal sawdust into solid oak boards; but the Representative of Shrewsbury is a genius of all- work : for I find in this speech a dissertation on wheat and shoe- buckles— barley and currycombs— steam- engines and Coventry ribbons— population and the river Mis- sissippi— English sheepskins and Mr. Kirkman Fin lay cotton goods and cut- nails— silks and pen- knives— woollens and stove- grates - the combination laws and the river St. Lawrence-^ kid gloves and pocket- knives — wages of labour and the Member for Montrose— edged tools and fenders— saws and carpet- weavers— shoe- ties and the natives of Hindoostan—-^ scissors and the American tariff— files and the truck system— female artizans and the toy- shop of Europe— the riter Ganges and Sheffield razors— cum multis aliis ! I wait with impatience, Mr. Editor, the result of th? deliberations of the Committee that have all these subjects under their consideration ! When they have introduced a Bill that shall prevent the evils arising from fluctuation of employment in manufacturing- districts, do not fail to let all the world kntiw it, that we may be ready to celebrate in due form the ap- proaching Millenium: Do not smile, Sir; for Another great Economist is now in London, preparing the initiated for their anticipated triumph : I mean Mr. Robert Owen, of Lanark. He has addressed a letter to the Editors of the London newspapers, in which he says— 4* It is now my intention to place before all classes, in this metropolis, the whole extent of the change which is absolutely necessary, before any permanent relief can be obtained for the existing distress and increasing evils of society. I will, therefore, give a course of lectures explanatory of an entirely new state of society, iii which there will be no necessity for religion— for individual responsibility— for artificial rewards and punishments— for private property-- for commercial com- petition— for inequality of rank or condition— or for mar- riages on the principles on which marriages have been hitherto solemnized. 44 Aud yet there will be perfect obedience to the immutable laws of nature— no motive created to the existence of any crime— no poverty, or the least apprehension of it— a bene- ficial interchange of commodities— no desire to possess iudi vidual wealth,- honour, or privilege, not common to the human race— no prostitution, but the most pure chastity, and universal good, and kind and charitable feelings. This superior state of society will arise from the application to practice of a knowledge of the laws of human nature, ah'd the experience of the past history of mankind, which will effect an entire change of the existing ignorant and vicious cimim- stauces which are now allowed to form the charactewahd". influence the conduct of all men, for intelligent, virtuous, and altogether superior arrangements, in which it is proposed that all succeeding generations shall be placed from birth to death." There, Sir: what more can be desired ? The Midsummer holidays are at hand : and I trust all the schoolmasters will attend Mr. Slaney's Committee and Mr. Owen's Lectures during the vacation. Let the opportunity be largely embraced, in order that those who have hitherto followed the old system may be the better enabled to grope their way into the influence of the new light. Verily, at present, it appears to me that we are scarcely got into MOONSHINE. THE APPRENTICE PAINTERS. Though last, not least ( in our regard), came the Representa- tive of the Painters' Company, in the Character of SIR PKTEK Paiil RUBINS. [ The illustrious Prince of Design and King of Allegory, whose imagery was as splendid as the dreams of fairy land, and to ga/. e on whose tints was as a feast, of roses, was admirably supported and excellently dressed, being an exact copy of the cost ume, of. the time in which this luminary in the hemisphere of- talent fivetfy and, taking, hnn for all in all, did infinite credit to those who superintended the character, as com ing nearer to the thing intended, anfl possessing in appearance as much of the Knight of Pageants and Tournament, as any exhibited ; iu short, it was such a Figftrc as men and children gaze at with astonishment, and ladies love to look upon.] Four Armorial Banners ( executed in a very superior style). Flags, Music, Stewards, Sec. Thus, indeed, did the several Companies move towards Kingsland, with Music, Flags, and Banners— truly exhibiting " UNION and BROTHERHOOD whilst the whole Procession presented a lively picture of the hearty and vigorous manners of our fore- fathers, and which it may be a mark of wisdom to encourage and support. At two o'clock, the Mayor, attended by about 30 Gentlemen, followed to Kingsland, preceded by the Town- Crier, Marshal, Sergeants at Mace, & c. & c.; where they were entertaiued most hospitably at the different arbours, though the company assembled io greet therii was not so numerous as we have witnessed on former occasions, owing,- no doubt, to the unsettled state of the weather. The Mayor and his friends, on entering the arbour of the Hairdressers, were gieeted by a salute of rockets; and, after partaking of the hospitality of that Company, proceedi'd homewards about half- past nine o'clock. And we may mention with pleasure, that the seasonable hint thrown out in a former Journal was attended to on the present Anniversary, inasmuch as the Chief Magistrate was escorted into town by his predecessor in office, and John Cressett Pelham, Esq. M. P. for the County, followed by a select number of Gentlemen ; whilst the Trades also returned with greater regularity and decorum than has been known on any former occasion; each de- parting to their homes or rendezvous highly gratified with their holiday and recreation; and the town was Speedily as quiet as upon ordinary occasions.

ABERYSTWYTH,— The first stone of the intended New Church in this town was laid on Wednesday last, the 9th instant, in the presence of a vast concourse of persons, inhabitants of the town and its vicinity. The gentlemen and others who were to take a part in the interesting ceremony met at the Town Hall, and from thence proceeded to tbe present Cbur'ch in the following order: — Children of the Charity School. Baud of Music. Clergymen. the Architect ( Mr. Haycock, of Shrewsbury), and llie Contractor ( Mr. James). The Mayor and Body Corporate of Aberystwyth. Tlie'Commitlee. Visitors, Subscribers, & c. & c. Arrived at the sacred edifice, prayers were offered up for the Divine blessing, and an excellent sermon was preached by the Rev. John Hughes; after which, the procession was again formed, and pro- ceeded to the site of the intended structure, where the foundation stone was laid in due form, a selection of the coins of the realm being deposited therein under a plate engraved for that purpose — An appro- priate prayer was then offered up by the Rev. John Hughes, and two anthems were sung ; followed by " God save the King," with an additional verse adapted to His' Majesty's distressing illness.— The procession then returned to the town, where the evening was closed by several public entertainments. — The Architect having preparetl the foundation for a spacious tower to the intended Church, it is hoped the liberality of the inhabitants of Aberystwyth, and of the county of Cardigan, will furnish the means for completing it, with the addition of a peal of bells suited to the commanding situation of tbe intended edifice.

Of English Wheal we have also a fair quantity offered, and we can give no variation in the price from Monday last. Barley is short, but equal to the demand, which is dull. The oat tradfc is steady, and the price has not laried from last week. Great anxiety is expressed by ihe factors with regard to the weather, and should the wet continue, an advance may be looked for. Flour maintains the quotations of this day week, but the market is heavy, and the supply large. Some of the factors are asking Is. lo 2s. more for wheat since writing the above, and the oal trade seems inclining downwards ; we think Is. per qr. under last Monday^ terms would be taken for this grain.

An order has been issued by the Mayor of Hereford, to all persons to confine their dogs, and prevent the animals from wandering about the streets. Tbe floods, at the end of the past week, quite inundated the neighbourhood of Tewkesbury ; anil fhe beautiful crops of grass, which Were just ready for the scythe, in the meadows 011 the banks of the Severn and the Avon, have been rendered of little or no value. The loss to individuals has, in some instances, been very great : we heard of one extensive farmer, who offered t' 2!! 0 to any person who would clear his meadows of tbe grass, besides giving them the crops. — Gloucester Journal. We regret to hear most lamentable accounts of the damage occasioned by the overflowing of the rivers Severn and Avon, last week, from the effects of tbe heavy, rains. Along the banks of the latter particularly, tbe consequences have been most serious. Iii the vicinity of Tewkesbury; hundreds of acres were for several days under water, and the fine crops of grass, which were ready for the scythe, have been rendered almost valueless. At Mitton, we bear of one individual who, it is calculated, will be a sufferer by the calamity to the extent of £ 1000.— fVoreenter Herald. ' The late heavy rains have caused the Lugg and its tributary brooks to overflow their banks, and we regret to learn that in various places a large extent of grass land is tinder water, which will be a serious injury to the occupiers, as the deposit left by the water will materially injure the hay, unless heavy rain should take placc after tbe flood has subsided. Owing to the cold ungenial weather, the hay harvest has not yft commenced, but the crops are very heavy. There is an extensive failure in the orchards, owing to the long and general blight, and we hear a very bad account of the hop- yards, at present, in many situations. The wheat and barley crops are ejstiemely luxuriant, and promise a most abundant produce.— Hereford Journal. V'lt is announced, from authority, to be Mr. Griffiths** positive intention to offer himself for the representation of this city upon a dissolution of Parliament.

MAY- MAKING. The process of hay- making depends so much on circumstances that it is difficult to prescribe any specific rules for practical adoption; the principal one. however, is to give it as little drying as consists with safety— never, if possible, make it into large field- cocks, nor suffer it to heat except in the rick. Arthur Young says, " If succes- sive rains come, so that the hay is damaged, and vou arc fearful of its turning out unprofitably, by all means salt it as you stack it - a peck strewed in layers on the stack lo a load of hay— it will have a great effect in sweetening it, however bad it may be, even'to black- ness ; and it has been found hy experiment that horses and horned cattle will cat damaged hay salted Which they would not touch without that addition." I. OCOMoTIVK ENGINES— Arrangements have re- cently been made by the Monmouthshire Canal Company for adapting their extensive lines of Tram- road, to the use of Locomotive Engines, which arc likely to become general iu that district, anil nearly 1000 tons of tram- plates are now manufacturing tor that purpose, at the Coalbrook Vale anil Nant- v- Glo Iron Works.—.

ASPAIIACIIS.— 111 our report of l! ic Horticultural Meeting, this day fortnight, we noticed 11 specimen of hune a'spardfjits which was shewn, and at the same time expressed a" doubt of its quality, HS nothing was said of its flavour. The grower of this " grass," Mr. Grayson, of Mortlake, has since taken tbe trouble to submit a sample to our examination ; anil we are in justice bound to state, that it is equally superior in tasfe as in size, to the best Battersea plants we ever ale. Indeed, it is a great improvement of the vegetable, and has already been adopted by royalty anil nobility to a considcrab'e extent. Mr. Grayson, himself, cultivates about thirty acres of it; his first tjHsc^ very was accidental, but having observed the specimen, he hail tbe good sense to pursue the advantage, anil has thus succeeded in producing pleads about four times the ordinary size. We believe he has been similarly fortunate with raspberries.— jfiterary Gazette.

Dora alias Dorothea Fenn, was charged on Friday at Marlbgrough- street, with stealing a gold watch, a bandeau set with upwards of 20 diamonds, a gold chain and other articles, the property of Lord lnges- trir, together with three gold orders, of the Bath, St. I. nuis, aiid St. Anne, presented to the noble lord for his distinguished bravery at the battle of Navarin. She was. also charged with stealing a gold musical snuff- box, a £ 50 note, a £ 20 note, and other articles, from the Earl of Cardigan's, anil a gold watch from Henry C harles Stuart, Esq. M. P. The prisoner had been in several families as a monthly nurse, and was hired by Lady Ingestrie. After she had quitted her service, about three weeks since, a large quantity of diamonds, tbe watch, and jewellery were missed. Suspicion attached to the prisoner, and she was apprehended at the house of Air. Currie, in Monta- gue square At her lodging, at a Mr. Cave's in Oxford- street, the watch, a gold chain, and other articles identified by Lord Ingestrie, were found, together with a large quantity of jewellery. The prisoner admitted her guilt. She was fully committed for trial. Tbe following singular illustration of a fact men- tioned in natural history occurred a few days ago. A gentleman connected with tbe Custom House found in a case of sugar, in the London Docks, a small scorpion, measuring about two inches from one ex- tremity to the other. He took it home, and placed it on a cold plate under a glass, where the little reptile appeared to be almost torpid, but 011 warming the glass it became full of life. It was then stated by a gentleman present, that he had heard that the scorpion, if it found itself ill danger of meeting with a painful death, would sting itself, and cause its own immediate destruction. To ascertain the fact, a circle of about 3 inches in diameter was drawn round the scorpion, and covered with cotton dipped in spirits of wine. This being ignited, the scorpion made every possible effort to escape; but finding escape impracticable, and beginning to feci the effects of the fire, it instantly turned Up its tail, and, with considerable force, struck the stitig into its head. It was dead in an instant There was a Majority of Thulefit iii ( lie 1( iiise of Commons 011 Monday evening against the Ministers: — but yet they keep their places _ The ( ruth is* that without even the appearance of an organized Opposi- tion* the Whigs have been fir some time governing the country. Heretofore Parliament might, be described as containing two Classes of the Aristocracy — those adhering to the Administration of the day, and those in Opposition. In tbe present anomalous state of the House there is 110 decide;? Government Party,' nor is there any coni'jSact body working as a recognized Opposition ; and yet Ihe truth cannot be denied, that the Weakness of Ministers has given strength to their opponents. It were worthy of inquiry how tins state of filings arose? After the death of Lord Liverpool the Opposition party endeavoured to gain a fictitious strength by holding themselves up as organs of the popular sentiments of the nation. The British A'd- ministration— and we adopt the opinion of one intimately acquainted w ith the Subject— gave tlfeiil credit for being so; and whatever Opposition pro- posed, Administration ultimately performed. They generally voted down the opposition tnerisures in the first instance, and then in a future Session of Parlia- ment endeavoured to take tbe credit of originating them as beneficial reforms spontaneously granted by themselves. Thus ( hey went on from year to year, , so that substantially the Opposition became the Legislators of the Empire, through the medium of the Ministers of the Crown, who gave way to their measures. Hence, whatever important act of Legis- lation has been performed, originated with the Opposi- tion, whom the Ministers of the Crown attempted to gratify and conciliate, imagining they were thereby securing the good will of the nation and their own permanency of place. With what effect this game has been played, lie who runs nrav read. The demise of the King will not have taken place many hours, when one of the most formidable- Oppositions ever organized in England will be in active existence. STATE OF PARTIES. There is much speculation upon the stale of parties, and many ingenious c jnjectuies hazarded upon the future prospccts of the Ministry, in consequence of the King's precarious state. Our contemporaries are full, to overflowing, with the capabilities and strength of the parties not in power at present, and the proba- bility of their forming a compact and serviceable body, capable of ousting the reigning Cabinet, anil of establishing an Administration of their Own. It appears evident tliat the Duke of Wellington has but one stay, and that a very feeble one, for the permanence of his supremacy— and that is, the delicacy of tin- Opposition in the present state of things* aud tiie unwillingness of its leaders to- aggravate the sufferings of the Royal Patient by a violent disturbance of bis Councils. This embarrassment oncc got over, the " double- potential" Duke may bid " farewell- a long farewell to all his greatness." The fact is, he has 110 party on which he can rely for support. The Royal Family are not his friends— the Tories arc againsi him— tbe Whigs are not with him— the Liberals are not even faint in his favour— the Radicals hate him— the Economists are turned from him—- the Irish Members must vote against him. He has not, in fact, in either House of Par- liament, ten men who hold to him. as a leader, except his own personal staff and the official persons whom' servility to his views has made his own, because nobody else would trow trust them. The staff and the placemen, then, are all that tbe Duke can reckon on for partisans' in case of a lively attack from the Opposition Benches. And' here his adversaries are all powerful.— Lords Grey, Eldon, Lansrfowne, Hol- land, Winchilsea, & c. in the Lords— with Brougham, M'Intosh, Sir J. Graham, Knafchbull, Sadler, & c. & c. in the Commons, are more than a match for his adhe- rents in both Houses. But if may be said thatsut; h a combination against the Duke is not very likclv, amongst elements so different as we have named. Not for any other object than the overturn of the Military Cabinet, we admit; but upon ( his subject, it is said, there is no difference of opinion amongst them, and they would all draw together for so desirable an end ; leaving to ( he current of events to decide what, party should succeed tn the administration nf affairs. Some there are who will fake the long odds that Lord Grey will be Prime Minister of England before three months' are over. His late conduct has, they say, " won him golden opinions from all sorts of men."

It is ( his week our duty to record one of tlie most cold- blooded attempts at the destruction of a family which was ever brought under the attention of the public. We have from time to time had occasion to notice the differences which have arisen and still exist between Mr. Hegiiibotham, the cotton- spinner, and bis servants, by which dispute a feeling has been generated that 111 all probability led to the formation of a plot for the destruction of himself and his household. On Saturday evening a box was taken to the Flying- horse coach- ollice, . Manchester, to be forwarded according ( o the following direction :— " Mr. Wm. Heginbotham, Cotton spinner, ASliton -" under- Lyme. Lancashire, Paid. hiijjland." This box was duly transmitted by a ctriteh belonging to the followers of Johanna Southcote, and from their coach- office was sent ( o Mr. Ileginbotbam's house, where it was received about eleven o'clock: That gentleman refused to open it, not we should intlgine from any apprehension of danger, whereupon his wife took it and applied a hatchet to the lid for some time before she could force it open. She however at length succeeded in doing so, and on looking into it she found that it held nothing lint gunpowder and a pistol. The contents were arranged as follows:— The bottom of ( he box, which measured about ten inches by eigiit and a half, and was eight inches deep, was covered to the depth of three inches or a little more with fine canister- powder, ' there was a pocket- pistol, fastened in an oblique direction on one side of ( he box with tbe muzzle nearly touching the powder. The trigger of the pistol was cut. with a file, and a wire attached to it went under tbe barrel of the pistol along the stock, the butt of which was broken oil', to tbe upper extremity of the box round a small pulley, and was finally fastened to the lid of the box which was firmly nailed down. The opposite end of the box to that at which the pulley was placed opened 011 two new binges, thus apparently rendering it impossible to take oft" the lid without pulling ( he wire and consequently discharging the pistol. Of powder there were nine pounds.— It is impossible to discover by what means the lives of . Mr. Heginbot- ham's family were saved. In opening the box 110 precaution was used; it was turned over several times, and tbe cleaver was used with considerable violence. The wire was cut through, and Mrs. Heginbotham, we understand, states that she heard something snap. This, however, we should hardly consider possible, unless, as is stated, tbe priming bail all been lost by the shaking of the coach, the hammer and pan of the lock not fitting sufficiently close The box, we believe, is like those often used in tbe factories for the conveyance of small portions of ( he machinery, is very strong and rather rudely con- structed of inch- board ; it was lined with what iu factories is termed marble- paper. Directly opposite to the pan of the pistol a small hole was bored, through which it appeared they primed the pist. oi when all was complete, and they afterwards tilled the hole up with putty.— We understand that a man called at the Flying- Horse coach- otfice in this town no less than three times, for the purpose of request- ing that the box might be delivered that night without fail; and the servant who received it at Mr. Heginbothain's afterwards remembered that she saw two men walking about a field opposite her master's house, who, 110 doubt, were watching for its arrival. — At the time the box was opened there were 110 less than nine persons 111 the bouse, all of whom would of course have suffered, if the machine hail answered the expectations of its contrivers.— A gentleman has been dispatchcd to the office of the Home Secretary In London, for the purpose of arranging some means for the discovery of tire abandoned conspirators. Many persons must of necessity have been engaged in the affair, and we have therefore little doubt that in a short time we shall be enabled to announce the apprehension of some of the party.— Since writing tbe above we have learnt that the person who went up to London w ith the box has had an interview with Sir Robert Peel, and that the circumstance has excited considerable attention amongst the nobility and others in the Metropolis. It was intimated that a reward w- ill be offered by ' Government independent of tbe £ 300 already offered.— A London poliee- oflicer is expected at Asliton immediately, to assist in appre- hending the offenders.— Manchester Chronicle.

He complained of not having been treated with much courtesy by ( he Noble Earl at the head of the foreign department. The Noble Marcpiis con/ plained that the Earl of Aberdeen said he could nut produce arty tetter.'? between Prince Leopold and himself prior £ 0 the first communication in' the papers ujitin the table: buty nevertheless, it was clear that something had pnsseef between them; he then proceeded to put some q'Ues. tions to the Duke of Wellington—' Lord AHFRDKEV replied by referring the Marqkiis; to the papers al- ready on the table as supplying the precise iiifOYrrra- tion he required.— The Duke of WELLINGTON observed that, one . of the rtueslion^ put to him by the' Noble Marquis related to the paragraph contained in? the letter of Prince Leopold, i » y which he spoke of a secret influence having beerr exercised. as to the? determination of the Government with respect fof Candia. The Marquis, he saiil, wanted to know what thai influence was? For an answer to that question he must refer him to Prince Leopold, for lie had no answer to gi ve. The Noble Marquis th'ert asked whether he, believed a statement made in the letter of Prince Leopold? He was sure that when the Noble Marquis came calmly to consider that question, lie would see that it was riot, a proper one ttf ' put to him— he felt it, at least, to be improper, and ho' must therefore decline answering it.— Lord DITJRHAMF and the Marquis of LONDONDERRY pressed for the' production of certain papers that, explained tlve course pursued by Austria ai> d Prussia, which led to an animated discussion, in which Lord HotXifW © and the L> uke of WELLINGTON took part.— Lord CALTHORPF enquired of the Noble Earl ( Aberdeen) whether he refused these papers because their pro- duction would be inconvenient and detrimental. to the public service.— The Earl of ABKRDKEN said he had no hesitation in stating mWfe explicitly, that it would be very inconvenient and detrimental to the public service.— The House then cleared, for a divi- sion, but their Lordships did not proceed to a vote.— Lord DURHAM complained- of the Noble Earl re- serving his declaration respecting the inconvenience^ and injury of producing these papers up to the last moment.—- The motvoh was then negatived without a! division.

" The pleasures of memory," so sweetly sung by an elegant modem bard, are indeed great, varied, and manifold. They constitute One of those few human satisfactions which increase as life advances, for as long as the faculty of recollection exists in health aud soundness, its mysterious power of reviv- ing past occurrences, and recalling departed objects, becomes more and more interesting and valuable to us, in proportion as we recede from tbe one, and the mist of time gathers over the forms of the other. It presents us, indeed, not with realities, but clear and beautiful are its visions. They glare not, It is true, with the glory of the meridian sun, but, like the mild touch of his departing ray on the mountain's summit, fhey shed over the soul the chastened warmth, and softened gleam, of a sober, mellowed joy. It must be acknow ledged, however, that memory has its pains as well as its delights. The sigh and pang are often its associates; and when the traveller, who has advanced far on the journey of life, throws it retrospective eye to tbe road which he has tra- - versed, to the incidents which have occurred, and the persons who have appeared on the busy scene, the view will, not unfrequcntly be accompanied with regret, that such events shoohl ever have been ; or, with grief, that such once- living objects can be no more The observation, though a trite one, is not the less depressing— that the lapse, even of a few years, Is sufficient to work a grievous havoc in the number bf those w ith whom we have interchanged confidence or reciprocated kindness, a consideration which ap, plies as well to the young as to the more advanced in life— but what a wreck among his relatives, earlier friends, and former acquaintance, must he behold, who surveys through the telescope of bye- gone time, a space of more than half a century ; and has now buried his grand climacteric " with the years beyond Ihe flood!" I must confess that the feelings associated with my " recollections" of Christ Church School, partake far more of a grave than a cheerful character ; for when 1 take a mental review of the long train of healthy and joyous youths, high in hope and big with pur- pose, with whom 1 consorted, in a five years'con- nexion wilh that place of instruction, linked to some of them by tfie bonds of friendship, and mingling with all in goodwill and cordiality— and recollect that of this number not more ( to my knowledge) than seven or eight are now in existence— a nielan- choly steals over my spirit, which affectingly con- vinces me, that to remember is uot always to enjoy. — From Warner's " Literary Recollections." the Nobility of England, and whilst one great party in the State adopts him positively, a medium party will patronise his pretensions merely as a counterpoise to the interests of another individual The Prince is powerful, as the widower of the recent heiress of the British Throne, aud should the nation experience a misfortune, from which we trust that it will be long preserved, his Highness will be uncle to the Queen of England, and, during her minority, w ill have the support of Iter mother, his sister, as the natural guardian of her rights. " lit the event of any temporary substitution for the functions of Royalty, the influence of the Duchess of Kent, from her Royal Husband's position and claims, must be great in favour of her brother. The zeal with which the Whig Leaders, and the Ultra- Tory Seceders, in the House of Lords, have taken up his Highuess's cause is Very remark- able. The Doke of Wellington's great national services will weigh heavily in the opposite scale, but the people of England of every rank have ever been most jealous of a fellow- subject exercising more than a subject's functions. A speech of Lord Winchilsea, on Thursday night, was sufficiently significant, though it was caviare to the General. His Lordship had no objection to the Sign Manual Bill, as a vdry temporary measure, but he dreaded It as a precedent, which an ambitious Minister might hereafter use for his own aggrandizement, and to the injury of the country. The Duke of Wellington parried this allusion like a Skilful tactician ; lie diverted it into an insinuation- against the state of his Majesty's mind. Lord Luiisdowue denied that there was any such idea contained in the Earl of Winchilsea's speech, and announced the determined opposition of the Whigs to'a renewal of the Bill in its present form.

SEVENTH EDITION OF THE ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNIC A. HOUSE OF COMMONS— MONDAY. Mr. H GRATTAN moved for a return of the ab- sentees from Ireland, and the amount of their property — Mr. O'CONNELL said that tbe sum of four millions nnnually was drained from Ireland by the absentees, who never contributed to the payment of the taxes, or the support of the poor. Whoever could check the tide of absenteeism, would confer great benefit upon Ireland. The House having resolved itself into a Committee of Supply, Mr. DA WSON moved a vote of £ > 8,000 to defray tbe charge of Missions to the New States of South America.— Sir JAMES GRAHAM, after an able speech, in w hich he brought arguments to prove that these charges had been increasing from year to year, moved as an amendment thet a reduction of £ 9191 should be made on the Vote. Upon which a long discussion took place, when the House divided— for the amendment 99, against it 118— majority 10. LAW OE FORGERY. The SPEAKER read- the' order of the day for the third reading of the Forgery Bill. Sir JAMES MACiifTosil moved, as an amendment the repeal of capital punishment in all cases of forgery, with the exception of the forgery of Wills and that the punishment of the crimes of tbis nature, ( with the exception as mentioned,) should not excecd the term of fourteen years either as imprisonment or transportation; but with this proviso— that as it generally happened that persons guilty of this offence were men of education, and consequently fitted for public employments iu the Colonies, instructions should he given to the Governors of such Colonics not fo allow persons of this class to perform any official duties by which their punishment might be lessened; or, if confined in prison at home, they should be kept to hard labour. Mr. Fowell Buxton, in a speech of some length, seconded the amendment.— Messrs. Lennard, Mac aulcy, and others, supported it.— Mr. Cripps, Sir R. Peel, and Sir C. Wetherell, spoke against the amend- ment. The House then divided, when the numberswere — for Sir James Macintosh's clause 151— against it, in favour of Ihe original bill, 138— majority against Ministers 13. On the clause being brought up, Sir R. Peel said he must now bow to the opinion of the House, as expressed on the subject. TUESDAY. Mr. ATWOOD, after a long address, brought for- ward two resolutions upon the subject of the cur- rency. The substance of the first was, that it was expedient, to repeal so much of the Act of the 59th of George III. chapter 58, as went to declare that gold only should be the legal tender. The pnrport of the second resolution was to give gold and silver a concurrent circulation, making silver a legal tender in all money engagements; also to repeal so much of Ihe Act as prohibited the issue of notes under £ 5 After a long discussion, the resolutions were nega- tived without a division. STATE OF THE COUNTRY. [ From the Morning Herald of Wednesday last.} An the recovery of the King ma'v now be unhappily considered out of the q'uestion, we may, without any Violation of proper feeling, advert to what is likely to occur on the demise of the Crown— an event which, in all human probability, will take place in' a few days; perhaps in a few hours. The general opinion among persons of wealth in the City is, that no change of Ministry Will take place on the accession of a new Sovereign. They think, or profess to think, that the Royal Personage, who of right ought to succeed to the Throne, will not endanger the well- being of the State by any change in the Government, or, rather, in tbe persons by whom the Government is administered. In answer to this, however, H is said that the new King may imagine that the well- being of the State requires another description of men to' administer its affairs; and it is added, that if there be any truth in the reports of a plan having been in agitation, which, if carried into effect, Would very materially affect his rights, and which was only not attempted because it was opposed by a party too powerful to be resisted, that that circumstance alone would decide the fate of the present Ministry/ Inde- pendent, however, of any considerations of the de- icriptions here alluded to, it appears to many persons that the Administration is exceedingly weak in Par- liament. They were decidedly beaten on Monday night on the Forgery Bill, and sustained a moral defeat the same evening on the question of fhe South American Missions, the majority in their favour being only 19. It may he said, indeed, that the decisions alluded to are the result of the certainty of an elec- tion being near at hand. But this proves nothing, except that Members apprehend Ministers are not popular with their constituents, and therefore find it necessary to Vote against the Government, in order to show that they are not under its influence. In short, if it be true, as is asserted, that a combination is forming against the Ministry, it is not easy to imagine how they can keep their places; for it is quite clear that they have no friends in the House of Commons, except among those members who are the regular supporters of whatever men may happen to be in power. In the course of the debate on Monday night, on the Forgery Bill, Mr. Peel made use of an expression, from which, if it were not inadvertent, ( antl that does not appear to be the case, it is clear that tbe Right Hon. Gent, calculates upon not long retaining his office. His words on the occasion alluded to, as reported in the Morning Herald, were these:—" If he were to retain the office of Secretary of Stale, nothing could be so agreeable to him as to be relieved from the painful duties which the infliction of this punishment imposed upon hitn." In other Papers, the Right Honourable Gentleman is reported to have said—" If he were to look con- fidently forward to his continuing to hold the office of Secretary of State, he could assure those who ad- vocated the proposition of the Right Honourable and Learned Gentleman, that nothing would be more agreeable to him than to agree to a commutation of punishment." Both sentences express pretty much the same meaning, and both clearly indicate doubts as to the speaker continuing in office. As we have observed on other occasions, there is evidently a soreness in certain quarters with regard to the refusal of the sovereignty of Greece— a soreness which we are informed has arisen from an idea that Prince Leopold's determination was influenced by consider- ations altogether independent of the Greek question, and which had reference only to measures about to be adopted with regard to the future government of this country. Whether Ministers feel persuaded that they are too Weak to offer any effectual opposition to these alleged measures wc do not pretend to say, but the opinion is pretty general that such is the rase. It is said, indeed, that, in order to strengthen their party, they have prevailetl upon the Duke of Cam- bridge to return to England; that Cholmondeley House has been fitted up for him ; and that he is expected home about the first week in July. With regard to Parliament it is asserted, that on the demise of the Crown an adjournment will take place for a fortnight, and that, at the end of this period, the House of Commons will be dissolved, it should be recollected, however, that tbe supplies are not yet voted. These remarks, which we have thrown toge- ther without much attention to order, we give as the political speculations of the day, leaving our readers to form their own opinions respecting them. Jn every country where knowledge has been long and successfully prosecuted, and books extensively multiplied, attempts more or less skilful have been made to reduce the mass of information to a com- pendious and regulated form, and to furnish a ready access to its scattered details by means of the publi- cations called Encyclopaedias. In this department of literary enterprise our own country has tak^ n a. pro- minent part, suggesting the method and furnishing the ground- work of some of tbe most eminent Erfcy- clopfedias on the Continent. The work before us was the first which aspired to embrace all the depart- ments of learning— to render the Alphabet a ready key not only to the Arts and Sciences, but to the multiplied details of History, Biography, Geography, and Miscellaneous Literature. The'utility of the plan, and the talent displayed in its execution, have been sufficiently attested by the sale of Six extensive editions, three of which have appeared within the last twenty years. The flattering reception met with by the work itself induced the proprietors to undertake the publi- cation of a Supplement, which appeared under the auspices of Professor Napier, the editor of the edition before us. The popularity of this addition to the work was Such as might have been anticipated from the ability of the contributors, and tbe liberality and I eiltf fprise of the projectors. To its pages we are hide- bled for the Splendid Dissertations of Professors Stewart and Pliiyfair; the one exhibiting a connected outlin'e of the' progress of moral, ethical, and political philosophy, from tbe revival of letters to the 18th century ; and the other a history of the physical and mathematical silences. These Dissertations we do not hesitate to rank amongst the most valuable accessions which the standard fiterature of Great Britain has received during the present century, and we have no doubt that Sif James Mackintosh and Professor I- eslie have continued them in a manner worthy of their distinguished fame. The object of the edition now in progress is to Combine all the available matter of the sixth edition and Supplement with al! the information which the present advancement in science and literature places within the reach of the contributors. So far as it has already proceeded, wc are more than satisfied with the manner in which it is executed, and the continued ability of the work we consider sufficiently guaranteed by the distinguished individuals who contribute to its' support. The external appearance of the book iif now for the first time rendered worthy of its literary celebrity, the paper, printing, and embellishments'' being of the first order; while the price is so much reduced as to place it within the reach of any indi- vidual who feels any desire for either amusement or information.— See Advert. this lady's house, pretending that lie could not utter a sentence of English, he presented to the passers- by the following sentence, written on a scrap of paper:—" Please to direct Captain M. Alexandra to Lady Bold, Forest- street;" and at the house, another scrap, ou which was written, " The poor Spaniards have called for their passport which came by post." Tbe Magistrates committed the barber for one month to the House of Correction, as a rogue and a vagabond, and discharged Mrs. Strap, the lady who accompanied him in his travels. i$ lt0tdlanfous Entelligcncf. CAUTION TO THE BENEVOLENT.- DENT IMPOSTORS. - IMPU- The following remarks on the present and future position of Ihe country are extracted from a recent London Journal i— " The last week has been pregnant of events which may appear almost insignificant, if read superficially, but which must be received us signs of very important consequences. They are indi- cative of the awful state of the country, and are merely forerunners of a very fierce strife between the political parties in the two Houses of Parlia menl. lu very few party contests iu the Legis. Ialiirc have the people of Englaud had such deep interests at stake. The election of the Prince of Saxe Cobourg to the Sovereignty of Greece sufficiently attests his talents, as well as the Interest which the Duke of Wellington has taken iu raising him to one of the highest dignities in Europe, distant froin England. The Prince, how- ever, had thrown every impediment in the way of his being thus disposed of, and although his demands ( unreasonable as they appear to us) were complied with as rapidly as they succeeded each other, the negociation was spun out until the Prince had ascertained certain painful probabilities, when he gave in his positive refusal to accept the distant Sovereignty. His Highness is very popular among ABSENCE OR INCAPACITY OF THE KING. Chamberlayne, in his " Angliae Notitia," 1692, p 76, says—" If the King of England be non compos v. entis, or, by reason of an incurable disease, or weakness, or old age, become incapable of governing, then is made a Regent, Protector, or Guardian, to govern. King Edward III. being at last, aged, sick, and weak, and, by grief, for the death of the Black Prince, sore broken in hotly and mind, did, of his own will, create his fourth son, John, Duke of Lancaster, Guardian, or Regent of England, if the King be absent upon any foreign expedition, or otherwise, the custom was to constitute a Vicegerent, by commission under the Great Seal, giving him several titles and powers, according as tbe necessity of affairs have required; sometimes he hath been called Lord Warden, or Lord Keeper of the Kingdom, and therewith hath had the general power of a King, as was practised during the absence of Edward II. and III. and Henry V.; but Henry VI. to the title of Warden or Guardian, added the style of Protector of the Kingdom, and of the Church of England, and gave him so great a power in his absence that he was tantuni non Rex, swaying the Sceptre, but not wearing the Crown ; executing laws, summoning Parliaments under his own Teste, us King, and giving his assent to Bills in Parliament, whereby they became as binding as any other Acts. Some- times, during the King's absence, the Kingdom hath been committed to the care of several Noblemen, and sometimes of Bishops, as less dangerous for attempt- ing any usurpation of the Crown ; sometimes to one Bishop— as Hubert, Archbishop of Canterbury was Viceroy of England for many years; and when Edward HI. was in Flanders, though his son, then but 9 years old, had the name of Protector, John Stratford, Archbishop of Canterbury, was Governor both of the King's son and of the realm ; so King Henry I. during his absence ( which was sometimes three or four years together), usually constituted Roger, that famous Bishop of Salisbury, sole Governor of the realm— a man excellently qualified for Govern- ment. Lastly, sometimes the Queen, as two several times, during tho absence of Henry VIII. in France. A sturdy looking fellow with a lemon coloured Complexion, calling himself Metro Alexandra, a Spanish captain, and a dapper fat- fair- and- forty- looking female, who travelled with him, were, on Saturday, charged before the Magistrates of Chester, by Mr. Dawson, superiiiteudant of police, with saiFnig under false colours, and ( uot having the fear of the tread- mill before their eyes, and against the statute in that case made and provided) with levy- ing contributions upon the benevolent and humane among ( her king's lieges iu the Principality and elsewhere,- under colour, aud by virtue of certain forged aud counterfeit Letters of Marque, or Letters Dimissory, from " H. Leach," one of his Majesty's justices of the peaee for the county of Pembroke. Mr. Dawson stated that he went on the scent of olher game info Handbfidge, the previous evening, accompanied by Haswetl, the newly- appointed police officer. Htf saw a Crowd, principally women and ragged urchins, round fhe door of a lodging- house, and upon enquiring the cause, he learnt that " all bauds" of the inmates had been forced to " crowd all canvass" and " stand out" for the high- way, the foreign captain having " cleared the decks" with a poker, and demolished eight panes of glass in Ihe w indows ! When Mr. Dawson enter- ed, he found the captain sealed ou a stool, some- thing more than " three sheets iu the wind," the poker still in his hand, and hiccuping some out- landish lingo, which Mr. Dawson supposed to be a Spanish Bolero. To every question put to him, he answered only by a significant shrug, or a vacant stare; and, finally, Mr. Dawson ordered Haswell to take him into custody, and fit him with a pair of ruffles. While this latter operatioo was iu progress, he repeatedly called out in a piteous tone, " Me Spaniola!" Mr. Dawson, however, continued in- exorable, and upon Haswell letting fall some flash expressions, not strictly grammatical according to the thieves' vocabulary, Captain Metro Alexandra, for the moment forgetting himself, or like the cele- brated Miss Mary Campbell, suddenly receiving the gift of tongues," exclaimed, in very good nglish slang, " D— tu your b~— y eyes you beak, you a'nt. fly— you arc but a greenhorn." Upon hearing this, Mr. Dawson searched the Captain ( who bolted a sovereign during the opera- tion) and also his female companion, and fouud upon them the following documents, written iu a ery good hand. " The bearer, Martha Aspinal, is the widow of the late Sergeant Aspinal, of His Majesty's 2d D. G. who was drowned at Sea, while going on Furlough, beg leave to recommend her to the bounty of the itniaue.— J. VVymes, late Col. of H. M. 64 Regt. of Foot — Aberystwyth, April 21st, 1830."

Leach, one of His Majesty's Justices for the Co. of Pembroke." To this official passport, or passe partout, was affixed a large seal with a lion's head couped, and it bore the names of the following individuals ( ap- parently in their own hand- writing) who had been humbugged by this captain out of the sums attached to their names, respectively: A. Stokes, £ 2; J. Dabiue, R. N. £ 1; Mrs. General Blunt, 10s. ; Thomas Bowen, ( Cardigan,) 10s.; J Edwards, ( Dolgelley,) £ 1; the Overseers of Bangor, ( by order of the Magistrates!) 10s.; H. W.

Napier, £ 1; Madame Bold, ( Chester,) 10s. When before the Bench, Don Metro Alexandra made a virtue of necessity, aud frankly acknow- ledged that he was no Spaniard, but a barber, by name Frederick Clarkson, late of Kimburn, in Berk- shire; and as trade was bad in that quarter ( the people being so poor that they could not afford to be shaved above once a mouth) he thought he would try his hand on the Welshmen. Moreover as a re- nowned Spaniard, the far- famed Knight of La Manclia, had not disdained to employ a barber's basin for his head armour, he ( the barber) made no scruple of shaving, wherever lie could find a green crop, armed with a Spanish passport, especially, as it fell very opportunely in his way, " lying on the high road!" Evidence was then given of various acts of vagrancy committed by the Don during the four days of his sojourn in Chester. His plau w as to ad- dress letters to individuals through the post- office, inclosing his " Spanish passport," and stating that " Captain Metro Alexandra" would give them a call. The following is a copy of oue sent to Madame Bold :— " Honrd. Lady,— Those poor Spaniards are iu great distress, they have no English, one of them are now detained with a bad foot ill consequence of their hard travelling. I am a well- wisher to poor Foreigners in a strange country. The captain will call for this passport.— Chester, June 3, 1830." As he pabscd through the streets, on his way to The will of the late Sir Robert Peel was not proved — although several of our contemporaries contained paragraphs to that effect ten days ago— till last Tuesday. The personalty was sworn at what is called « upper value," that is, as exceeding nine hun- dred thousand pounds, the largest sum, we believe, that any will has ever been proved under. The landed estates of the testator were, besides, very con- siderable. The will mentions various sums, amount- ing in all to about £ 240,000 ( besides an annuity of £ 9,000 per annum to the present Baronet), which Sir Robert had at various times advanced to or settled upon his children, and bequeaths them near £ 600,000 more, making the provision for his five younger sons £ 106,000, and that of his three daughters £ 53,000 each. £ 6,000 are left to a school which Sir Robert had established at Fazelcy, in Staffordshire; and small legacies to some of the hospitals at Manchester and Salford. By a codicil, dated in 1825, the for- tunes of the younger sons are increased to £ 135,000 each, and the residue, which will in all likelihood be nearly half a million, to be divided into ninths, four shares to the present Baronet, and one to each of his five brothers. Government will get about £ 25,000, fifteen being the probate stamp, and the legacy duty will hardly fall much short of ten. A correspondent of the Gardener's Magazine states, that a new variety of wheat has been re- ceived from China. It is considered as more pro- ductive, and of better quality, than the common wheat grown iu Europe, and the flour which it gives is much whiter. A most daring burglary was committed on Monday night, at the house of Mr. Wray, No. 15, Basing- place, Waterloo bridge- road, directly opposite to the New Police station. The thieves entered the premises by boring out one of the panels of the back window shutters with a centre- bit; then they proceeded to fasten the servants and children's bed- room door with the linen- lines, which were cut down in the garden'; after tfhifch they proceeded to plunder the house, taking with tftem, among other things, a new hat belonging t6 a gentleman sleeping ill the house, leaving in exchange an old one, on examination of which a letter was fonutl in the lining from a felon under sentence of death* in Newgate, most urgently soliciting the party to whom it was addressed, to get as ntany signatures as possible fa a petition, to prevent the last sentence of the lavv being carried into execu- tion upiin hinr. The letter is now in the hands of the police, from whose exertions it is hoped some clew may be found to the perpetrators' </ f the burglary. It is a little singular that a private watchman, who had hitherto been cotisidet'ed jr most active man, and whose business it was fa' Watch the back of these premises, together with the police iri front, should have been so unfortunate as to miss" these robbers oil a night nearly as light as the day. The falling of a silver bell from a lady's writing desk in' the drawing- room, which was found on the carpet, is s'V'p- iu- H'd to have alarmed the thieves, and saved much valuable property. On Monday week the pigeon cote of Major Yai;- burgh, of Heslington, near this city was broken open. The thieves, previous to entering, had procured a ladder, and stopped up the top of tlie cote with straw, to prevent the pigeons from escaping, and then en- tered by breaking open tbe door. They carried off about half the birds. Information was given to Mr. Pardoc, police- officer, who, with his usual activity, instantly commenced an investigation ; and, from information which he obtaiued, he was convinced they had been sent to Hull. He consequently ac- quainted the police there with the circumstance, and directed them to search the house of a man named Hawden, where they found 123 pigeons, which are believed to be those stolen from Major Yarburgh. Hawden stated that he had purchased them of a man named Hanby, a resident of York, who was taken into custody with his two sons. The sons, we understand, took the birds to the Robin Hood coach- office, York, to be sent by coach to Selby, and from that place to Hull by packet. Had not Mr. Pardoe used the greatest promptitude it would have been too late, as they were going to be forwarded the following morn- ing by a steamer to London. Hanby and his sons underwent an examination before the Rev. D. R. Currer, at the Castle, on Friday, and were remanded for further examination. The pigeons were on Friday let out of their cages, near Heslington, when they every one challenged their home, by flying direct to the cotc, and taking possession of it, apparently well pleased with their escape.— York Courant. FATAL PUGILISTIC ENCOUNTER.— On Tuesday se'nuight a fight took place at Apperley, Glou- cestershire, between two men named Wm. Palmer and Thomas Wintle, which, we are sorry to say, terminated in the death of the latter. An inquest was held on Thursday, before John Cooke, Esq. Coroner, when a verdict of manslaughter was re- fumed against Palmer, who has been thereupon committed to Gloucester Gaol. One day last week a mau was fishing in a pond, near Chichester, when the owner of it came up to him and ordered him off; theinan, playing the deaf ear, answered iu return, that the d— d fish would liot bite, and he did not think there was any thing ill the pond but carp. The owner was so enraged at the fellow's answer, that he threatened to throw him into the poud t upon this, the intruder offered to lend Ititn one of his rods to fish with. Uuable to suppress his anger, the proprietor ran up to him for the purpose of giving him a ducking; but at that moment the deaf man bobbed his head down, and the incensed gentleman's foot slipping, he fell head- long into the water— a depth of six feet— and was obliged lo call upon the deaf man to assist him iu getting out; who told him he did not expect to catch such a large fish in that pond, or he would have brought a stronger line.— Brighton Herald. We have been informed, from very accurate sources, that since 1824, no less a sum than twenty millions of dollars have been absolutely lost in attempts to erect manufacturing establishments in the eastern states— particularly in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.— American Paper. TREES.— A tree eats neither clover nor corn; it sucks nourishing moisture from the earth as quietly as a babe sucks its mother's milk ; it receives warm life from the sun, and freshness from the air, and shakes its hair in fhe storm. A cow might happen to die ; but a tree lives and bears its blossoms, its bird's- nests, and its blessings, for our children and our children's children. Trees would be the happiest of beings if they knew how free and gay they are, how beautiful they look in spring— what a protection they afford when clothed in the full- leafed glory of summer— how men stop to admire them, and thank God for the pleasure they afford— how gratefully the weary traveller rests beneath their shade, to smoke his pipe or eat his crust of bread— in short, how they deal out benefits to all around them, and confer happiness on young and old. Even in winter, trees give us no trouble, for they do not require to be housed ; no, they brave the chilling blast, and guide the traveller on his Way, when roads and paths are buried beneath the snow; directing him first to the right, then to the left— now a little more to the left, and over the hill. I would advise you to en- courage the growth of trees and religion. In no way could your influence be belter employed for the benefit of man-, for, though a tree when planted costs little or nothing, it grows at last into a capital, which yields good interest: and piety secures the promise of happiness here and hereafter. TREASURE TROVE.— On Monday last, as some carpenters were taking up an old floor in the draw- iftg- rOom of Mr. Ferris, grocer, Soulh^ ate- street, thejr discovered a concealed treasure of, it is said, fppr hundred guineas, of the coinage of George the Second. The money, we understand, was found ill two tin cases, in a place which appeared to have once formed a cupboard, and where it had no doubt been put for safety. Mr. F. it is stated, behaved with the greatest liberality both to the master car- penter and his workmen, giving to the latter five guincias a- piece, aud a still larger sum to the former. This is one of the oldest houses iu the street, and was formerly a public- house, known by the name of the Crown Leek.— Bath Herald. We are now arrived at the beginning of June, and the financial measures of the government, which they have had the whole of the last autumn, winter, and spring, to concoct and arrange, seem to be in as in- complete a state as if a change of administration had taken place, and a new set of ministers had oiily a few weeks to prepare and consolidate their measures. Witness the new Beer Bill, and that relative to the stamps; in both which cases nothing so crude and indefinite was ever presented to the legislature. In the first case— that of the Beer Bill, the Chancellor of the Exchequer and his advisers ( if he consults any body) do not appear to have had the least knowledge of what they were about; and, in the shape of a boon to the public by way of remission in taxation, it is now doubled whether the proposed measure would confer any. The truth is that the details and pro- bable consequences of the proposed measure do not appear to have been at all conceived or anticipated. — Morning Herald, June 3. It cannot be doubted that England is on the eve of one of the most momentous eras that ever occurrcd in the course of its varied and eventful annals. The peculiar state of the succession to the throne of these realms, the resignation of Prince Leopold, and the tone which has been suddenly assumed by a certain political party, both within and without the legislative assemblies, may furnish a key to the Pandora's box which we behold at no great distance ready to be opened, and to let forth upon the people and the prospects of England, a host of those ills which, at intervals, ever have been, and ever must be, mixed up with the manifold benefits attending a form of government like that under which we live. The position of circumstances is such at the present moment, that no public writer can with any safety make up his mind to tell his readers what may or may not be expected, in the event of that happening which, we verily believe, all parties look forward to, with a feeling little short of consternation.— Court Journal. ALLOYED IRON PLATE.— A manufacture of pre- pared iron has been practised, aud the'substance produced used to a considerable degree iu Paris. The object has been to prepare iron in large plates and other forms, so that il will not rust; and this has been effected by cooling it with an alloy of tin and much lead, so as to form an imitation of tin plate. T he trials made with this article have been favourable; it very well resists the action of certain fluids that would rapidly corrode iron alone, and can be prepared of any size, and at a low price. Its use in the manufacture of sugar pans and boilers, in the construction of roofs aud gutters, is expected to' be very considerable. In au appeal case lately decided by the Lord Chancellor, it appeared that a worthy member of the legal profession iu the sister country, being appointed executor to the will of a client, who died in 1821, commenced his executorial duties by bring- ing eighty actions at law and fifteen chancery suits. It may easily be conceived how much of the estates would remain for the legatees, A short time since, a young man, who happened to be a member of a Benefit Society in this town, and being about to leave this part of the country, attempted to avail himself of one of the provisions iu their code of laws, which entitles the nearest relative of a deceased member to a sum of money to defray the expenses of decent interment. In the most sanguine anticipation of his certain demise he waited upon the stewards of the club, and, with a countenance solemn as the grave, informed them that he was come for his funeral- money, as he was going to take his departure from this neighbour- hood ; and it not being his intention to trouble them iii casi of sickness, he wished himself to be consi- dered as a dead man, and he would accept the money upon those terms." The stewards smiled at tlitis sociable corpse, and informed liitti that, accord- ing to the tenor and letter of their laws, good and substantial testimony must be brought that he had ceased to brea! he, and not till then could a farthing; be received. The simpleton scratched his head, and walked awav,- writhing under evident disap- pointment.— Htris Mercury. INGENUITY OF B< RDS.— In no quarter of the world are birds more ingenious than iu India. It is necessity that makc4 them so, for nowhere have they so many and 30ch vigilant enemies. The unceasing persecution of the snakes in particular has been the means of producing, among the winged community, a perfection in fhe architecture of their abodes which is truly surprising.- " To guard against that enemy, a little featheved inhabitant of the neighbourhood of Bombay,—: a tiling uot much bigger than a cockchafer,— fixes its tiny nest to the pointed leaves of the palmyra palm^ which the suake cannot reach, aud there rears its brood in safety. But of all the winged architects of India, or, per- haps, of any other country, the Indian grossbeak floxia pkilippinaj is one of the most ingenious. The bird is rather bigger than the one last- men- tioned. Ill bulk it exceeds the common sparrow of our gardens, and, therefore, its neBt would weigh down the tip of a leaf till it came in contact with others, aud consequently brings the treasures which that contained within reach of the enemy. To prevent this, it has recourse to a very ingeuious contrivance. It builds in a variety of trees, but it prefers the Indian fig; and making choice of a very sleuder twig, it plaits a rope of grass and vegetable fibres, at least a foot and half in length, aud to the end of that it fastens its snug and very ingeniously constructed nest. Externally that nest is formed of the same materials as the cord by which it is sus- pended, and plaited in the manner of a basket. Internally, it differs from most nests, in containing a suite of three apartments, which are partially separated from each other, and yet have one com- mon entrance, and a communication with each other. The first apartment is for the male, who keeps watch there, while the female is performing her incubation, and, as his beak is powerful ill pro- portion to his size, lie offers a bold defence against ordinary winged foes, while the rope by which the nest is suspended is a sufficient protectiou against the snake. The second apartment is for the female; and the third, aud most secure, for the young. This nest is, in itself, most abundantly ingenious, but those who are fond of heightening nature with their own fancies render it a good deal more so The male has, generally, a light in bis apartment; aud thus it is easy for fancy to endow him with the lantern as well as the vigilance of a watchman. In one corner of his apartment there is generally a little bit of moist clay, upon which there are fas- tened one or more glow- worms, which partially illuminate the little apartment. These insects use them in preference to any others, simply because their light betrays them, and they can be caught iu the twilight, and they are a supply of food for the young grossbeaks in the nursery behind : but there are, iu all departments of natural history, more violent and improbable strainings of the fact than the supposition that they are placed there for the purpose of giving light; and certainly there would be something very wonderful iu a bird lighting up its apartment, as it would be au instance without a parallel in animal history."— Picture of India. LORD ERSKIN E— Upon the motion made by Mr. Fox, in 1792, for the appointment of a Minister to treat with the persous exercising the functions of the Executive Government in France, Mr. Erskiue supported Ihe motion with more energy and elo- quence than were usually displayed in his par- liamentary harangues. He painted in strong colours the fortune of the Soldier, and contrasted them wilh those of the persons who profitted at home by the calamities of war. " The life of the modern Soldier is ill represented by heroic fiction. War has means of destruction more formidable than the cannon and the sword. Of the thousands and tens of thousands that perished in our late contests with France and Spain, a very small part ever felt the stroke of au enemy; the rest languished in tents and ships, amidst damps and putrefaction— pale, torpid, spiritless, and helpless; gasping and groaning unpitied among men, made obdurate by long continuance of hopeless misery, and were at last whelmed into pits, or heaved into the ocean without notice, without remembrance." " But at the conclusion of a ten years' war, how are we recompensed for the death of multitudes, and the expense of millions, but by contemplating the sudden glories of paymasters and agents, con- tractors and commissaries, whose equipages shine like meteors, aud whose palaces rise like ex- halations ? These are the men who, without virtue, labour, or hazard, are growing rich as their country is impoverished ; they rejoice when obstinacy or ambition adds another year to slaugh- ter and devastation; and laugh from their desks at bravery and science, while they are adding figure to figure, aud cypher to cypher, hoping for a new contract from a new armament, and computing the profits of a siege or a tempest." We are desirous of drawing the attention of oilr school readers to an advertisement in our paper 3f this day, containing a complete list of Mr. Guy's very superior School Books ; we believe there is ttv> instance on record of works having attained shell popularity within the Sa'riie space of time; his " Gtrferal School Question Book," though duly published six mouths ago, is already established in nearly all the best schools of the empire, and litany thousand copies have been sold, new editions having been called for quicker, than the press could pro- duce them His " British Expositor'' is now the uuiversally adopted work to succeed all spelling books; his " School Geography" has oUt- stripp'ed every other book on the. same subject ; and his " Elements of Astronomy" is the most perfect book of the kind that schools were ever presented with ; the " British Spelling Book," " Primer," " Reader," " Cyphering Book," and " Scholar's Arithmetic," are so well known, and so generally used, that it would be superfluous to do more than name them. A new edition of his first publication, the " Pocket . Cyclopaedia," has lately appeared, beautifully printed, and very extensively improved, with the addition also of many very useful wood cuts. WONDEREUL INSTINCT.— Historians are loud in the praise of the instinct of those Indians in America who possess, in such a wonderful degree, the faculty of identifying and distinguishing the traces 6f footsteps. The AMbs are quite as remarkable for this pow er ; but, as it appears fo us to be more difficult to mark the impression which is made on grass than that ou sand, the merit of the American is infinitely greater. " The Arab, who has applied himself diligently to the study of footsteps, can generally ascertain, from inspecting the impression, to what individual ol' his own, or of some neigh- bouring tribe, the footstep belongs; and, therefore, is able to judge whether if Was a stranger who passed, or a friend. He likewise knows, from the slightness or depth of the impression, whether the man who made it carried a load or not. From the strength or faintness' of t'- e trace,- he can also tell whether the man passed on the same day, or one day or two days before. From a certain regularity of intervals between the steps, a Bedouin can judge whether the man Whose feel left the impression was fatigued or not'; as, after fatigue, the pace becomes more irregular, and fhe intervals unequal. Hence, lie can calculate- the chance of overtaking the man. Besides all this, every Arab knows tlie printed footsteps of his own camels, and of those belonging lo his immediate neighbours. He knows by the depth or slightuess offthe impression whether a camel was pasturing, and therefore not carrying uny load, or mounted' by one pet'sou only, or heavily loaded. If the mark- s of the two fore feet appear to be deeper in tlie sand than those of the hind feet, he concludes that the camel had" a weak breast, and this serves him as a clue to ascertain the owner. In fact, a Bedouin, froth the impressions of a camel's or of his driver's footsteps, draws so many conclusions, that he always leai'us something con- cerning the beast - or its owner; and iu some cases this mode of acquiring know ledge appears almost supernatural. The Bedouin's sagacity in this respect is wonderful, and becomes particularly useful in the pursuit of fugitives, or in searching after cattle. I have seen a man discover and trace tbe footsteps of his camel iu a sandy valley, where thousands of other footsteps crossed the road in every direction; and this person could tell the name of every one who' had passed there in the course of that morning. I, myself, found it often useful to know the impression made by the feet of my own companions and camels; as, from circum- stances which inevitably occur in the desert, travellers sometimes are separated from their friends. In passing through dangerous districts, the Bedouin guides will seldom permit a townsman or stranger to walk by the side of his camel. If he wears shoes, every Bedouin who passes wilt know by the impression that some townsman has travelled that way ; and, if he walks barefooted, the mark of his step, less full than that of a Bedouin, imme diately betrays the foot of a townsman, little ac customed to walk. It is, therefore, to be appre- hended, that the Bedouins, who regard every townsman as a rich man, might suppose him loaded with valuable property, aud accordingly set out in pursuit of him. A keen Bedouin guide is constantly and exclusively occupied during his march in examining footsteps, and frequently alights from his camel to acquire certainty respecting their nature. I have known instances of camels being- traced by their masters, during a distance of six days'journey, to the dwellings of the man who bad stolen them. Many secret transactions are brought to light by this knowledge of the Atlir, or ' foot- steps ;* and a Bedouin can scarcely hope to escape detection in any clandestine proceeding, as his passage is recorded upon the road in characters that every one of his Arabian neighbours can rea<\."— Burchhardt's Notes on the Bedouins and Wahabys. .
