GENTLBMRN, IHAVE frequently regretted that I have not iu times past made that acknowledgement which is justly due for the benefit my . family has derived from your excellent medicine, the Anti- scorbutic Drops. My sou William, when about a year old, wa9 afflicted with the Measles, which left a spot on his leg. This soon ulcerated nnd spread, forming a large wound. The surgeon lo whom we applied, succeeded in healing the ulcer, but almost immediately afterwards an ulcer appeared upon his face, and the boy was dreadfully afflicted with running sores upon his neck and body ; the discharge of matter was so great, that we were obliged daily to change his linen. The physicians and surgeons in ihe neigh- bourhood were applied lo, but their skill was in vain; several oilier remedies we resorted to, proved equally ineffectual, and the sufferer continued a poor and miserable object, almost bent double for near twenty years. At this time I heard of the virtues of your inestimable medicine, and nfter taking six bottles, which I purchased from Mr. Suiton, of Nottingham, an amendment began to take place, and pcr* everance in taking four bottles more, efTecled a perfect cure. It is now six years since this was accomplished, for which I return you my unfeigned thanks, and wish you to make it public, fur the benefit of those who may be similarly afflicted. 1 am, gemlemen, vour obedient servant, JOHN FOULKES. N. B. I know several other instances of extraordinary cures, performed by your Antiscorbutic Drops, iu this village. Those who doubt the truth < » f the above case, may apply personally, or by letter, post- paid, to Mr. Foul tees, or Mr. Sutton, Bookseller, Nottingham. These Drops are sold in moulded Square Bottles, at • 2s. 9d. 4s. 6d. and I Is. each, by Messrs. Lignum St Son, Surgeons, & c. ( 53, Bridge- street, Manchester ; W.& J.

The French papers of SundftV are filled « ilti Hie proceeding^ in Ihe Legislative thainlaTs. The me- thod of pro i'lrtlingy gainst the late ministers occupied the attention of the DephtieS of> the lrkliiY, ami a Commission was appointed to examine the proofs against tlieni. On liie following day a letter was read in tl. e Cliartibef of Peers bearing the signature of Prince PMignac; and a Commission of seven peers was'nominate'!. lo investigate the circumstances of his captnre, and the grounds of the charge against Him. In both Chambers' additional mi- mln- vs have declined taking the oath binding Ihcni to the new dynasty ; a number of y acancics will, in consequence arise among the Deputies. . According to private letters from Paris daied on Monday, the excitement, ngninst Polignal- and the oilier ex minister^ under arrest is less extensive than former iiccounts rcpiesenfcd. The public appear to tit- maud their trial, but wish not to take 1 heir lives j nnd it is thought that they will be lu- avily fluid and imprisoned. The Paris papers received ou Thursday flight contain ir Vft'fjet^ of inleresfliig inti fligence. The Comniittefe of th, e Chamber of Peers to which Prince Polignac's - ease was referred, made on Monday a long report, the result of w hich vvas, a recommendation Hint the Charfibcr of Peers should sanction Ihe arrest of Ihe ex- minister. The report wan adopted — C. siiuir Peiler has resigned the ^' residency of the Chamber of Depii) les, ou the ground that bis health precludes liitti frftifi dis- charging its important functions. M. Lafitte, Vice- President, ptoposed a vole of thankk to Ihe Presi- dent, which was unanimously adopted; In this Chamber M. I. abbey de Ponipiere* brought for. ward the subject of the law by which certnib con- ventionalists aud others were exiled after tiie tccoud restoration of Louis XV1I1. A great part of the time of the sitting was occupied with the ievi& nl of the regulations or orders of the Chamber. A new article was proposed by the Committee which drew up the orders, prohibiting the reading Of written speeches, which was adopted by a large majority. The want of Pthployment has again given oc- casion to some movements among Ihe Parisian workmen. It is slated that a body of five hundred • hiusons went on Monday to the Palais Royal, and insisted upou seeing the King, to inform him that they had no woi- k. These proceedings appear to have uo Cdrthectibll with polities. Some dis- turbances, whith partake however both of a politt- . cal and religious character, have broken out at Nlsmcs. The Catholics of that quarter nre stated to have attacked Ihe Protestants as they did after the Restoration in 1815, tind Some lives have been lost.— Tranquillity, however, was ptrfectly re- stored.— A short dispatch from Admiral Duperre, transmitted by tiie telegraph from Toulon, states that the ti- i- colnured flag had been hoisted on board the fleet, and on the batteries of Algiers. Nothing is said as to resistance having beeu made to this step by General Bourinout. The Mvsiager deS Churnfires of Thursday's date was received at a late hour on Friday afternoon. On Wednesday ( he Chamber of Deputies agreed to a proposition revoking the decreed of I8i6, by . which a great number . of Frenchmen were banished, and appointed M, Lafitte President in ihe room of at. Perier. The French funds experienced a further fllll on Wednesday, and various causes are assigned; but none of them political.— The accounts from Itonie state that the Pope has held a Council of Cardinals, at which a resolution was passed to t' e effect Ihut the Court of Rome had witnessed with regret what had just laken place at Paris, but that the Holy Father had no desire to oppose the wishes - of the French nation. The consequence therefore is, that the Pope will recognise the new goveru- 1 ment. The Times of Monday has a long article on Spain, from which we extract the following passages :— " We have no hesitation in affirming it to be un- questionable, that an entire overthrow of tiie tyranny of 4 Ferdinand the perfidiotis' is now on the point of taking plate. Those whtf are not accurately informed with regard to the Spaniards, seem dispbsed to found their. aulicipaiioh of this great and happy occurrence on the refl- ht 1- sliTblishmciit of constitutional liberty on the otfier side of the Pyrenees. They are alto- gethet deceived. The destruction of that horrible system under which Spain has groafied ever since ( with oi e short interval) the restoration of the Bour- bons to the sovereignly of Franfce, was actually pre- pared, amf would, in a very few months, perhaps weeks, have been accomplished, Cven if Charles X. had still kept possession of his throne. " l- roni tiie hour at which the last French division inarched horheward ( we suspect before it) an actii- c and well- managed correspondence has been carried on through all the provinces of the Peninsula ; and the brave a ud distinguished exiles in foreign lands h'ave willingly answered the invitations of tin ir coun- trymen to jun them in striking one more blow for freedom. " It cannot, therefore, he alleged with any justice to the constitutional Spaniards, that they took their cue from France, or that their noble country was but an offshoot from the victory of the French people. The fact is, thai Spain was already ripe. < c It is only fair to acknowledge, nevertheless, that if tbe Spaniards had prepared themselves to act, without Waiting for any impulse from Paris, tbe glorious example which . has been set them in that capital must infinitely facilitate and expedite the success of their own national project. There is now in France a government from which liberty, at home or abroad, has nothing,. we trust, of which to be apprehensive. Vainly will the tyrant appeal to the ' Citizen- King,' who occupies the Palais Royal, for support A single regiment ordered to the Pyrenees on suspicion merely of such a purpose, would hurl Louis- Philip from his yet unsteady eminence." , MUNICH, AUG. 19.— Accounts from Greece, which have been received here by yvay ( it Trieste and leg- horn, give il much more favourable idea of the state of things in that country than tfiose that have been latterly published. The government it is true is embarrassed for want of money, which it has partly caused by an accumulation of places, and is . thus subject to numerous difficulties, but in the interior of the Country there is much activity, aud in thesea- portd commerce is improving The greater par. t of the Peloponnesus was cultivated in the spring. The, plains of Patrasso, and on the Parnisus, in Messenia, were covered with rich harvests, and it was calculated that the crops will be sufficient to supply not only the province itself but part of the islands. At Athens S'imc Turks still occupied the citadel, but. lived on good terms with the Greeks, who possess ihe city and the country. The commission of government which the President had appointed from. Attica was daily expected at Athens at the end of June. The Turks had already begun lo quit Eubcea. Numbers of Hydriots, IpsariotS, and even strangers, had arrived in the towns of the island, to purchase from the Turks their hotises, lands and flocks. Extensive business- was cinrie with considerable profit, and still better prospects for the future. The competition of strangers in thoie purchases was seen with pleasure. The Greeks hope that the latter will introduce with their capitals the European improvements in manufactures, & c. and will give them instructions ill agriculture and tlie establishment, of Manufactories. € t) e Salopian ' iournal.

On Thursday, a most brutal murder was discovered to have been committed on an old man between 70 and ISO years of age, of the name of Cooper, living at Stockton, two miles on the Tenbury road from Leominster, The old man lived by himself, and his neighbour not having seen him in the course of the day, went between two and three o'clock in the after- noon to his cottage, a wall of w hich had been forced down, and on his entering, discovered the corpse of tbe old man on his back in bed, his hands tied behind With a cord, the sheet stuffed as tightly as possible in his mouth, and his head and face bearing the savage marks of the assassin; the scull fractured, and blood protruding from both eyes, nose, and mouth. The body was cold, as no doubt he had been murdered on Wednesday night. It is supposed the deceased was possessed of property to the amount of £- 2000 or £ 3000 Two men were on Friday morning taken up on suspicion, and officers are in search of a third.

LEWIS JONES, Clerk to the Director!. OSWESTRY, 30* H AOol'ST, 1830. According to the articles from Madrid in the Paris papers, the news of the French revolution has al- ready had the effect of producing a change of policy iu the Spanish cabinet. At a council held at St. lldefouso, a division arose in the Cabinet as to the course to be followed in consequence of the events in Fra nee. The King, it is said, concurred with the least violent party, and it was resolved that some sort of compromise with public opinion should be attempted. As a commencement of reform, a few of the apostolical ultras have been removed from official situations, and more moderate men substi- tuted for them. It does not appear, however, that any alteration has been made in the cabinet itself. SHREWSBURY RACES. POSTSCRIPT,. LONDON, Monday Night, August 30, 1830. PRICIS or FUNDS AT THE CLOSE.

ACCOST 23N, I830J On Ihe subject and relative strength of tiie exist- ing parties in France; the Courier* ays—- " Many persons continue to express a fear thai the present Government of France will not. be able to hold its way, and that convulsions will lake place before a permanent system Can be established. We do not, however, see anj just ground for ap- prehension. There are uow four parties in Fiance, — the moderate Constitutionalists, w ho. approve of ( lie choice of Louis- Philip as King of France, and » Vho desit- e to see the New Constitution respected — the Baomtpartiat*, who are now much reduced in number, aud have scarcely any impoitnner— llie Republicans— and the paitisaus of the Duke of liourdeatix. There is tibl; iii either of the lust three parties, any thing like a nucleus for a successful attempt ut revolution. The BuonapartistA consist almost entirely of soldiers, who, whatever might have been their attachment to Napoleon, really cure very lilllc about his son, who is generally repre- sented iu France to be a young man of weak intellect. The Republicans are kept down by the declai- atious of La Fayette in favour of limited monarchy ; and as that venerable, uud we doubt not sincere man, will iu a short time have uuder his command upwards of 500,000 National Guards throughout ( Vance, it will be utterly impossible, whilst these guards retain affection for their old general, und respect for his principles, that any wild theorists should overthrow the present sys- tem. The partisunS Of Ihe Duke of Bourdeaux are certainly numerous -, they consist of persons who were attached to the family, or whose ideas accord wiih those of the late sovereign. These persons, In a country where bigolrv aud superstition in religious matters have been lately eneonraged, would form a very dangerous cluss if their means of offence coricsponded with their desire to offend. Hut, us the other three parlies are unanimous in their dislike of Ihe Ultra. Royalist*, Ihut of the Duke of Boui'deaux can never gain ground* unless the present government should, by iulpropcr conduct, disgust the mass of the people, and render them anxious to overthrow the existing- System, even though Ihe change should restore to power persons for whose opinions they entertain great contempt, aud in whose character they have little confidence. We are quite sure . that the only real danger lo be apprehended would be from the adoption of an unjust course by those into whose bauds power and authority have fallen." The Prince Polignac's children h. TVe arrived at the Countess of Newbnrgh's residence near Arundel. They came from France with the ex King; accom- panied by a nurse and the Prince's valet, and on landing proceeded directly to Slindon.— The follow- ing narration of the mode of effecting their escape, as delivered by the valet, is interesting. There arc four children, two by a former wife ( who was an English lady) aud two by the present Princess. Their ages are thirteen, ten, aud six ; the youngest is quite an infant. When the disturbances broke out at Paris, tbe children, with their nurse and the valet, were at Ihe Prince's country house about thirty miles from Paris. Hearing lhat the King was on the road to < lie i In ii i tg, they determined on following him. They accordingly left, the h. itise at midnight, habited in fhe garb of poor persons, and hid themselves in an outhouse. At day- break they commenced ( heir ' journey wnlkiug, anil occasionally riding- in carts, Ike. as opportunities presented themselves. The valet and nurse represented themselves as husband and w ife ( as really is the case) and the children as their offspring. The valet had his marriage certificate in his pocket. They were stopped at every town and ' village hy armed men, and strictly examined ; but so well did they sustain the character they had assumed, that they were suffered to proceed without experi- encing any inconvenience, and but lillli- delay. In one town the valet evinced great presence of ( nihil. On the authority before whom they were taken examining the marriage certificate, and observing the date, he looked at the two eldest children and said— " Why this certificate only hears date so and so, and yet your second child cannot be less than ten or eleven years old." The valet immediately replied that lie was sorry lo be under tbe necessity in that instance of speaking the truth ; hut the fact was, that his wife had borne him the two eldest some years before they were marr ed. This explanation was considered satisfactory, and they were passed on They eventually reached Cherbourg one day before the King, in a state of exhaustion. There are now at Slindon the Marquis de Moiitmoienci, bis wife and seven children, and the Prince Polignac's four children. INSURRECTION AT BRUSSELS. The city of Brussels has been the theatre of some serious movements, and some fighting ; but some of the Papers are a little hasty in calling the matter a revolution.—- On the evening of the 2& th, the rabble at one of the theatres, who had previously taken into Ihfcir heads to- be very angry at preparations for celebl- ating the King's birth- day, fancied that they discovered something at which they ought to be affronted in, the performance of 11 The Dumb Girl of Portici;" and as soon as tho representation was over, they hurst into the principal streets, stole arms and every thing else they could lay hold of, destroyed the houses of M. Ljbry Bagnano, editor of a servile newspaper, Mr. Knyff, chief of the gendarmerie, and M. Van Maanen, au apostate liberal lawyer and persecuting prosecutor. These exploits, with a few faint shouts Sgainst the as cendaticy of the Dutch interest, as contradis- tinguished from ihe Flemish, and a few, still fainter; in recommendation of Napoleon the Second, and here and there nn occasional skirmish with the military; vvhiJ appear to have acted with equal temper and fidelity, constituted the whole of the insurrection ; when tbe magistrates very prudently drdvv otf the troops; exhorted ihe respectable in- habitants to incorporate themsfclvcs as a burgber guard, for the protection of the city, aiid bribed the rabble to peace hy the promised abolition of a local tax upon grain, levied by Ihe municipal uulhoritns under tbe title ofmoutulre, multure; or grinding tax Tranrjniiliiy wiis restored ; and here, to all present appearance, terminates what hu4 been designated tho Belgian revolution. W'e have jtist received, hy express, tiie I'aris journals of Satiirday, and private letters of the same dale. The news of the Occurrences in Brussels had reached the French capital, and cxcited much tem- porary triumph in the Jacobin party, hut it Was soon extinguished. The Chainliers had had constant hilt generally teniperate debates- upon Questions Connected with the employment of the population of Paris— the age of jurors— the details of tilt election of de- puties, and similar topics. The King was recom- mending himself lo the people by homage to their favourites, rendered with a degree of display a little beyond the taste of Englishmen. The state of Spain was still anxious, hut no actual movement bad taken place. Tbe Duke de Bourbon, Prince dc Conde, died ( it is surmised by his own hand) on Thursday ; lie was a year yotinger than the last king, Charles X-, with whom he Once fought a duel, on account of an affront offered to his wife, who was aunt to the present King. He tfas better known as father of the celebrated and unfortunate Due d'Engbien. The sudden and Unexpected death of Mr. Harris, the new member for Sotithwark, on Friday last, has thrown the Borough into a: statfe of confusion. The expenses incurred in conducting tiie contested election on the part of the deceased gentleman have not yet been paid, objections having been taken to several of the bills sent in : many of the committee are alarmed lest tliey should be held responsible for the orders thfcy gave, while the different tradesmen employed are apprehensive that they will find some difficulty in gelling their accouh'U satisfactorily settled. The debt incurred, in carrying on the election for Mr. Harris, amounts to £ 8000. The expenses at the King's Head in the Borough alone, were nearly £ 100 per day. Several private meetings have been held by some of the most respectable inhabitants, for the purpose of selecting some fit and proper person to supply Hie vacancy in the representation by the lamented decease of Mr. Harris; but nothing defini- tive has yet been made public. It is reported that Mr. Calvert feels a disposition to solicit the suffrrnges of the electors, provided his friends think that he can consistently, come forward, after the pledges he made upon the hustings, " That he would never more be the representative for Southwark." It is also said that Mr. Potts, Mr. Polhill, Colonel Jones, and Lord John Russell, intend shortly to declare themselves as candidates — Morning Herald. The teccnt death of Mr. Harris, the late member for Southwark, lias occasioned a vacancy in the repre- sentation of that borough. It is rumoured there arc already several candidates in tbe field. Mr. Launce lot Baugh Allen, of Dulwich, it is currently reported, intends lo offer himself on the day of election, and he is spoken of by the boroughonians as likely to stand great chance of success. Placards have been issued by the friends of Mr. Calvert, the late unsuccessful candidate, calling n meeting for Ihe purpose of adopt- ing measures to ensure that gentleman's return in the event of- his consenting again to put up for the borough —' t imes.—[ Mr. Calvert lias since consented to offer himself.] ELECTION F'XPENSES.— It is calculated that to Insure the return of Mr. Miller-, ncphew- of Mr, Christie, the great hat manufacturer, for th? borough of Newcastle, it haB cost " my uncle wot pays for all" not a farthing less than £ 8,000; aud the ex- penses of the other three candidates in proportion. The directors of the Liverpool and Manchester rail road, performed a journey from Liverpool to Manchester on Saturday afteruon. There were three locomotive sten, m engines, with, a long train of car riages in which were between 200- and 300 ladies and gentlemen. The distance between Liverpool and Manchester was traversed in two hours and five mi nutcs; but, in consequence of an accident happening to the boiler of one of tho engines, the journey from Manchester to Liverpool occupied two hours and forty minutes.

SituI WSBLRV RACES— We have much pleasure in noticing the additional subscriptions to the racing fund, as nlso the complete outline of the three days' sport, as advertised iu this day's Journal.— We have also the gratification of stating, that every exertion will be made to ensure an attendance of distinguished company; and we cordially join our own to the general expression of thanks, that is now given to the gentlemen and tradesmen who assembled in the first instance for the purpose of endeavouring lhat re- establishment of the Races which now appears to be so happily accomplished. At Ellcsmere Fair, on Thursday last, there was but a small supply.— Pigs sold at lower prices ; Fat Sheep averaged 4i( l. and Beef about 5tl. per lb. We are happy to hear that Madame Tussaud's exhibition has met with great success ill Oswestry; but, unfortunately for fhe ingenious Artist, she must close sooner than she wishes, in consequence of the commencement of the theatrical season. The Gazette of Friday night contains his Majesty's Proclamation for convening the new Parliament on Tuesday the 26th of October next, then to sit for k the dispatch of divers urgent and important affairs." The business of the first ( lay will consist principally of a formal communication from the King to the House of Commons, through tbe Lord Chancellor, ordering- theSi to procced forthwith to the election of a Speaker. In obedience to his Majesty's command, the liouse, the Clerk presiding at the table, will imme diately go through the necessary proceedings in this respect, on the motion of some member. No other business will be transacted on that day, with the exception only of the necessary formality of informing his Majesty of the result of Ihis preliminary proceed- ing.— Oil the second day, the Commons being sum- moned to attend the House of Lords, the Lord Chan cellor will inform the Speaker in person, of tbe approbation of his Majesty of the choice of the House of Commons in his favour. On th'e return of the Commons the Speaker will inform lliettl of the King's approval of his election to the chair, ami he will proceed immediately to the swearing in of the members. The third and fourth days will be occu- pied in precisely the same way— the swearing in of members. On the fifth day, when a sufficient num- ber of members shall have hern sworn in to enable parliament to proceed to business, a regular commu- nication will be made to his Majesty to that effect. This will be Saturday, October 30. On tlie following Monday, November 1, his Majesty, probably in person and due state, will formally open the biistness of the session with a Speech from the Throne. The neces- sary and pressing business, including Of course the supplies remaining to he granted from the lastsession, will, it is expected, be disposed of in about six weeks ; and both houses will therefore, in all probability, adjourn about the middle of Ditember to the begin- ning of February. Much interest has been excited in I/> ndon by ail inquest now holding to ascertain the cause of the death of a Miss Cashin, who was attended by Mr. St. John Long, who professes lo have discovered a new mode of treating consumption. The object is to ascertain whether Mr. Long treated her properly.— It appears that the mother of the young lady, whose rcsidcnce is in Ireland, having a daughter Ellen, who was in a Consumption, and who had been pronounced incurable by several of ( he medical practitioners in tbe city of Dublin, cafne over with Ihe iiivalid and her sister Catherine to try what the skill of the Lon- don faculty could do towards the recovery of her child. Having heai- d of the success of Mr. Long, who was formerly a painter, and who is deemed an empiric by the regular practitioners, in the treatment of cases of consumption, she put her daughter, who was sixteen years of age, under his care. Mr. Long's systefn is not generally known; in consequence of his enjoining secrecy on his patients. It is understood, however, that part of his plan of treatment consist-! in counter- iiritation; that is, to produce an external illness for the purpose of drawing off an internal disease. Another part of his plan consists in making the patient inhale a vapour. Miss Ellen was accoih. pnnied by her sister, when she made her Visits to Mr. Long, the consumptton- curer. This intercourse ended in Miss Cashin, who was in good health, but whom the death of her brother of consumption and the illness of hef sister had alartned for her oAnfaie, placing herself under the care of Mr. Longj and she allowed herself to be rubbed by him with his mixture. He commenced his treatment by causing a sore on Ihe lady's back, resembling the wound of a burn. How or with what the irritation on the buck was pro- duced does not appear; but the wound caused a fatal result. It produced inflammation on the stomach, pleura, and other internal parts, and, notwithstanding Mr. Brodie, the. celebrated surgeon, was called in at the eleventh hour, terminated in the young lady's death, which was followed, in a day or two, by that of her sister Ellen. Miss Ellen Cashin had, it ap peared, had a similar wound made on her back, though, from the beginning, Mr. Long said he conld not cure her. W'e copy the following from Mr. Justice Park's address to the Grand Jury of the county of Mon- mouth ; and at the same time we feel much pleasure in bearing our testimony to the skill and taste of our townsman, Mr. Edward Haycock, under whose direc- tion the present new Courts of Justice have been formed -.— . " Gentlemen of the Grand Jury— Having for the first time had tlie opportunity of sitting iu the county of Monmouth in so convenient a situation, I should think myself extremely wanting in that respect which I feel due to the county for the very admirable accommodation which has been provided for the administration of justice, if I did not now state my opinion on ( he subject. As far as 1 can discover at present, it is extremely well calculated for the pur- pose for which it is intended. You have done that which, though it is much to yaur honour, it is incum- bent on all men who respect what is due to society to eHi ct; for, to gentlemen of your consideration, I need not state, that next to your religious duties there is nothing of more importance to civil society than the due administration of justice, which cannot be effected unless there is fit and proper accommoda- tion afforded lor those whose ditty it is to adminisler it In the present building and the adjoining one, which 1 looked at yesterday, it seems to me that very great attention has been paid to every thing that is desirable in a court of justice. It is the duty of those who stand in my situation, and of those who are more immediately connected with the legal pro- fession, to point out any objections, or suggest any improvements whictf may occur to us wiih respect to any part of the building. 1 am quite sure also, that every endeavour has been made to accommodate the public ; and as far as my observation has gone, it appears to me there is every tiling that is desirable. In the situation of the jury- box I perceive a very great improvement:— formerly, the jury in the Cri- minal court were so oppressed by people leaning- over them, that it was impossible for them to have those deliberations which are so essential to the proper administration of justice; but now, by the new arrangement, they are guarded from any im- proper interference, which is most desirable, and that accommodation is afforded, which is so essentially necessary in order to guard against any inconvenience vvhich might happen to the due administration of justice: It is most desirable that those who are admitted itilo the courts should be within view of the Judge, that he may see if there is any impropriety or irregularity in their conduct or demeanor, which, if perceived, may be innnediately checked. Nothing Contributes more to silence on the part of an audience than when they have every opportunity of seeing and hearing every thing that is passing within the court. The arrangements seem to me in every respect most admirable; and I repeat my thanks, as well as those of my learned brothers, who in future will reap the benefit of the alterations you have made."—- Mon, mouthshire Merlin.

GENERAL ELECTION. [ From the Star of Brunsicich.' j The elections for Ireland have terminated ; and the proceedings thereat present art awful lesson fo Statesmen who seek to carry by despotism, measures opposed to the welfare and the liberties of the people. No man dared to offer himself as a Candidate in Ireland upon direct Government influence; and ; vihJpre( Castle support was offered* it was, as a matter [ o? 43ourse, repudiated. Pledges the most unequivocal haVC been' exacted from the two or three Treasury hacks who have heretofore supiported the Duke of Wellington, antl who have been returned— and they do not exceed that number— that tbey will hence- forward be found voting in the ranks of the Opposi tion, and defending the rights of the people. We think that tiie manifestation of public feeling against the present Adrhinistration is more direct and positive iii Ireland than even it has been in England, consider- ing the relative circumstances of either country, and the different materials of which the Constituency is composed. Having glanced at the elections in ii political, We now come to view them in a religious point of view. There are ten Papists returned— not out of a hun- dred, which forms the number of Irish Representatives — but out of sixty- four; for we put aside the Bo- roughs which are under the influence of individuals, and Corporate Cities, where Protestant electors pre- ponderate We consider the number— seeing that Papists neither possess rank nor property in the coun- try— as enormous ; and we have no doubt that Popish influence will increase. Upon this subject we copy the following front" 7 he Standard; — " The Kerry election has concluded, in the return of a Roman Catholic gentleman of the house of Ken- mare, the Hon. Mr Browne, and Mr. Maurice Fitz- gerald, commonly known by the alias of the Knight of Kerry, who has always been faithfully devoted to the cause of the Priests. Clare has returned . two Popish Members; Waterford, Mr. O'Connell, and that eminent prop of Protestantism, Lord George Beresford Mr. Wyse has succeeded, in Tipperary, against, v « f are happy to say, two pro- Popery candi- dates; The contest; in the city of Cork lay between two Popish gentlemen, one of whom i « of course returned. M< ath sends us Lord Killeeu; Kildare, Mr. O'Ferrall; Roscommon, a Romanist gentleman of. the name of Eccles, who chooses to call himself O'Connor Don ; and Galway has returned Sir John Rourke, of the same persuasion We have thus ten Roman Catholics for Ireland, out of one hundred. " But this hundred must, be diminished considerably when we come to compute Papist influence in the last '. election^. There are twenty close boroughs, which return acctrrding as their proprietors, the Duke of Devonshire, and others, pleaseand there is the Protestant University of Dublin, whence it would be hard to expect a Roman Catholic member. In the province of Ulster the Popish population is if)( i> or and scanty, and no one expects that any should be returned from that; yet even there a Mr M'Don- neli contested Antrim, Now, when we consider that out of the thirty or forty open places in the three provinces of Ireland, where the Papists have the maj(;> rit>^ they return ten in a year after their ques- tVni has been carried ; and that Messrs. Sheil and Bellow ( one of whom would probably have been returned) have contested Louth— Mr. M. OVonnell, Drogheda— Mr. M'Donnell, Mayo— and Mr. Lam- bert, Wexford, to say nothing of the buffoon attempts of Messrs, Lawless, Ronayne, and others of that class; it must be admitted that this is very well for a begin- ning. It should also be remembered that the pro- perty of the Roman Catholics in Ireland is about a fiftieth of the property of the island ? but the Popish candidates do not start upon the strength of property, else what are the claims of Messrs O'ConnelI, senior and junior, Messrs Wyse, Sheil, & c. upon the places they have attempted ? Nothing beyond what the superstition of the mob gives them. " In the next Parliament we shall improve. We must take it into account that in this election the Government exerted itself to keep down the reproach of an excessive Popish intrusion as much as possible. " The Morning Chronicle of to- day truly says, that the general result of the Irish elections will IK* anti- Ministerial; it falls into a few mistakes of no moment, such as representing Lord Boyle to have ousted Mr. R. King from the county of Cork, adding, - that this will be an accession to the popular side. Mr. King still sits for Cork, and Lord Boyle, who is a young person of no mark, has merely taken the place of his cousin, the Honourable Mr. Boy le, who goes in for the city of Cork; but. what shall we say to the following paragraph in the Chronicle :— * But, above all, it is pleasant to find these nbble- 6 men invoking fhe assistance of the Priests, without 4 whose spiritual co operation it is found hard, in i these times, to move the Catholic voters. Nothing ' is now heard of the dangerous nature of the inter- 4 ference of the Roman Catholic Clergy ; but it is struly said misfortune makes men acquainted with * strange bedfellows; and we must not, therefore, * wonder to find Lord Downshire importuning the 1 Catholic Bishop of Dromore ' " What Lord Downshire does is very immaterial to us ; but does the Chronicle recollect all the fine articles it used to contain about the total overthrow of priestly power by the i healing measure.' It appears that they still can influence elections.** " 0. R." ( Catholic rector, as the Roman Catholic papers initial the rev. gentleman's " additions,") of Da\ idstoun, in that county, tendered his vote for Mr. Lambert, in right as lie asserted of his freehold, arising, like that of the Protestant rector, out of his chapel- yard, burial, and other fees, in Which he had a life interest, inasmuch as he had been inducted fttiecellancous fmrlUgrnre. We have much pleasure itV ftnnouncing an alliance between the head Of the Cheshire branch of the family of Egerton, and the amiable Lady Charlotte Liftus, eldest daughter fo fhe Marquis of The .. . . - i . . <, | Marchioness, as Miss I> a;. hwood, was Maicf of McmonrJ thereto by his bishop, atnl was not removeable there- ( listi is| ied favm( file with the lafe Queen trom but by his own will, or through his proved mis- - conduct. The asser$ 0r had fhe weakness to Say that he would consider of his reverence's claim, instead of at once declaring it untenable. So much, however, for conciliation and compromise. The decision of Mr. Scott, the assessor, in this case was . against. the priest's most impudent claim, and the reason he gave was because the priest's fees were pa d voluntarily, and were not recoverable by law, should his pa- rishioners demur to the payment. THE WELL BEING OF THE POOR TTIE PRO- PER TEST OF NATIONAL PROSPERITY. In every country the great majority of its inhabit- ants is composed of the labouring class, the hewers of wood and drawers of water, of the men whose daily bread is earned by the sweat of their brow, and whose condition, be it good or bad,. happy or miserable, must always form the first and most important consideration in every estimate that may be drawn of that country's social position. Tried by this test, how stands the British empire at present ? We may be admired and respected as a state by o her powers ; we may coVer the ocean with our vessels of commerce, and our spacious harbours with those of war; we may be acknowledged as at the head of civilization in sci - ence, iii literature, in the arts ; the produce of our industryj and the aggregate of our wealth, may exceed all that imagination yet conceived as possible-; but if that wealth is so ill distributed that the mass of our population receive but an inadequate share of what their labour has produced,— if they are Con- demned to toil, ill- requited, in hopeless indigence, or are barely preserved from famishing by a surly and extorted charity, there is more matter, in such a con- dition, for. regret than pride-— for dismay than exult- ation- Nor is such a condition a source only of grief to those who have at heart the wellrbeing of their poorer fellow- countrymen, but a subject of serious and alarming contemplation to all who are interested in the maintenance of order and security. The mass of a community cannot be, in this age and country at least, long depressed. with impunity. It. cannot be a safe state of things where large bodies of men, in the extreme state of poverty and want, have constantly before their eyes the spectacle of bloated and over- grown wealth ; more particularly where their increas- ing intelligence, and the universal diffusion of political discussion, have taught even the lowest classes to thi^ ic and reason on the subject, to know that this enormous difference of condition is neither natural nor necessary, and to ask themselves how it is to be remedied.. In this picture we cannot allow that there is any exaggeration. True it is, and to this circum- stance is chiefly to be. attributed the security as yet enjoyed by society, in the midst of the elements of disorder, that this country possesses, in a degree perhaps equalled by no other that ever existed, a large and respectable middle classes, owning a very considerable share in the wealth of the Community, arid hence deeply interested in the preservation of tranquillity. But still, with the extreme of riches in the higher classes— the fortunes of many private individuals surpassing the average revenues of Con- tinental Sovereigns— it is certain that the great bulk of the people— the operative classes, manufacturing as well as agricultural— receive but a very small share ofthe produce of their industry, are constantly in a precarious, often in a most miserable condition, scarcely able to maintain themselves on their scanty wages when in employment, and frequently driven, for want of this, to ihe lamentable resources of pau* perism, mendicancy, or crime. Witness the distresses of the manufacturing districts in 1825, in 1827, and again in the crisis of the past dreadful winter ; wit- ness the harrowing statements detailed in the Parlia- mentary Reports of the Committees on Emigration, on the Slate of Ireland, and on the Poor Laws; witness the general increase of crime, the offspring of poverty; and, in Ireland, the struggle that millions are even now maintaining for their potato grounds — that is, for existence— with landlords aud policemen* — Quarterly Review* Charlotte ; and is one pf the Ladies of the Bed- chamber to her present Majesty. Lnd^ fcharlotte Loft us is one of ( he most pleasingf ifbiiitoufea of the present season.—. Court Journal. Arrival of. the ex- Royal Family of Franc's iii. lAihcorth.— Joseph VVeld; Esq. brother of Cardinal? Weld, the owner of J^ rlworth'Castle, . Dorset, Ijuvit- sn- tendered the use of that nolrfe mansion to Charles,. it? case the British Government would permit, him to. land, the fallen Monarch, gkvdfy accepted the offer,' and on the answer of out Government being received,'., allowing him fo resffde iir England as a private indi- vidual, preparations Were made for his departure fi'Otti Cowesy. . Shortly- after three o'c'ock on Monday afterboon, two carriages drove tip the park at Lui- Worth Castle, containing the deposed Monarch, the Duke of Angouleme, the Duke of ? Wtfr# e » ? tjx, the Duke of Luxembourg, and the Gerierjjt B& tori de Damas. The ex King was received af th& Entrance of the castle bv Joseph Weld, Esff. with whom he cordially shook fr mds, arid immediately Entered the Castle. Charles ( who, we belietCj IWYS bears the title of Duke of Milan, tx ing prohibited from residing in England otherwise than as a private individual) is of rather tall stature, but he does hot display his! figure to any advantage, owing fo a rather ungraceful stoop. He hears evident marks of age; find appears somewhat. Weakened, but hot so much as might have been expiected hi a man nearly 73 years of age, after the great anxieties' arid fatigues he has so recently undergone. There is a character of mild graceful- fiess about his countenance, tinned with a cast of melancholy. The Duke of Angouleme, hjs eJdosf son, who is 35 years of age, is MOCH shorter than hw father, and displays in his appearance little firmnes or manliness. He looks nearly rts old as his father. The Duke of Bordeaux, who will be ten years old oil the 29th of next month, is a very fine and interesting child;, he is tall for his age, and possesses a counte- nance beaming with intelligence. The Princesses and the retinue did not arrive until the following day.

There can be no doubt that the public will profit in various ways by the abrogation of the restrictions on the tanning trade. All the tan- yards in the- west country, that were lately vacant, are now in full employment. It was lately mentioned that, tanners were at. liberty to carry on the currying also, and a spirited shoemaker, residing hear Hamilton, has resolved to become tanner, currier, and shoemaker to b) ot. As the putting down Of a tanwork in the ordinary way is rather expensive, he has purchased a number of empty hogsheads, and commenced digging in his yard holes sufficient to admit them, and has sunk them in the earth. For th£ purpose of render- ing them water tight* he has surrounded them with C'ay, well moistened, and hard pressed between the earth and the sides of the hogsheads. Thus firmly planted, they will be perfectly well adapted for tan- ning all kinds of light goods. By this ingenious expedient the shoemaker will reap the profits of all the three trades.--— Scotsman.

JOSEPH BOOTH, Esq. was pompously announced in the Ministerial y^ proajUk both here and in London, that the Roman Catholic priests had resolved to preserve perfect neutrality in the proceedings; of the general election just, concluded ; and it was said that they would adopt this line of conduct from a feeling of gratitude, to show that the Relief Bill had reduced them to their proper condition^— from being political belligerents, to their more becoming and congenial station of guides of their flocks. The assertion was unfounded, as the following facts will evince. In the county of Westmeath they exerted themselves to the utmost in support of the candidate ( Mr. Tuite), whom they returned at the last election; but having different materials to work with now they have been defeated. At the close of the election the Rev. Mr. Burke, the priest of Castle- Pollard, addressed the populace then outside the Court House door—" Your friend Mr. Tuite has been thrown put, and I hope you will mark, at both fair and market, all who voted against him." Irt the county of Kildare they also made use of all their influence in favour of Mr, O'Ferrall, and here ihey were more successful than in West neath, for they effected his return. He is one of their own creed. Indeed, so much in dread of the influence of these ghostly fathers was the Duke of Lehister, the proprietor of three- fourths of the county, that in order to neutralize them, and thereby secure his brother's re election, he found it necessary to make the parish priest of Athy, a very short time before the commencement of the election, a present of a house and quantity of land, for his reverence's use at a nominal ren t! In Galway: they have contributed to the rejection of Mr. James Daly, and the return of a Roman Catholic, Sir John Burke. In Tipperary they have been equally active and equally successful in support of Mr. Wyse, one too of the same creed. In Limerick they acted among the most active, and it is hardly necessary to say, the most influential of r. Spring Rice's committee ; and had Mr. Massy Daw- son stood a contest for that county, they wouid have been equally ready to act as they did on the last occasion, by bribing the undecided electors for Col O'Grady, a fact, that was perfectly notorious, and would have been proved against their reverences even by your correspondent, had that question come before a committee of the House of Commons! In Drogheda, Dr. Curtis, the Duke of Wellington's correspondent, was the first freeholder who voted for young Mr. O'Connell, and urged all over whom he and his clergy had any control to imitate his example. In Louth they strained every nerve against the return of Mr. M'Clintock, merely because he was a sup porter of the Bible Society, and in the habit of speak- ing at their meetings, and they would have succeeded only that those over whom they could exercise their holy control were split among themselves about Shiel and Bellew. In Cavan they made use of their in- fluence in inducing Mr. Southwell and Mr. Coote, who were their unsuccessful candidates at the last general election, to retire in favour of Mr. Saundeis > n, against whom a very general feeling of oppo> t o i had b: jen created in consequence of his " ratting" oil the Relief Bill. But it was in the county of VVex- foad that one of them adventured the boldest stroke as yet ever attempted by their reverences, in favour > f Mr. Lambert, the Roman Catholic candidate— a RIOTS AT KIDDERMINSTER. Some riots took place on Tuesday evening, at Kid- derminster, attended with very considerable destruc- tion of property, owing to a dispute having arisen be- tween the weavers and one of the carpet manufac turers. The excitement which had manifested itself in the afternoon having subsided, about half past seven the Magistrates retired to their own residences; but immediately afterwards the populace, consisting of persons of both sexes, assembled in great numbers, and immediately demolished the windows of Mr. William Cooper, Mr. Lea, and Mr. Henry Brinton, carpet- mantifacturers; Messrs. Bestj wool- staplers; Mr. Brinton, solicitor; and Mr. Russell, coal mer- chant; whose families were subjected to much per- sonal risk from the attack. The Bailiff ( George Custance, Esq ) attended by the Town Clerk, pro- ceeded to read the Riot Act, but was prevented by an aitack Upon them by the populace with stones, which drove them into the Black Horse Inn, the windows of which were instantly destroyed, as also the furniture in the front rooms ; the Townhall ; the houses of Mr. Gough, sen. and Mr. Dobson, carpet- manufacturers; Messrs. Boycot and Son, and Mr. John Gough, drapers, in the High- street, shared the same fate j the stock of goods of the latter were pillaged, to a very considerable value, by the mob, and the account books and various other papers connected with his business strewed about the streets. All attempts made by the Bailiff to quell the disturbances proved ineffectual, until the arrival of William Boycot, Esq. one of the Magistrates, from his house in the country, at half- past ten o'clock, when, assisted by some of the principal inhabitants, the mob was dispersed, and, such of Mr Gough's stock as remained was secured. The inhabitants met on Wednesday afternoon, for the purpose of determining upon the most efficient measures for punishing the offenders, antl preventing a repetition of such attacks; when it was unanimously agreed to raise a fund for defraying the necessary ex- pense of rewarding those who may render informa tion, and for prosecuting the rioters. Many of the most responsible persons in the town agreed to patrol the street both day and night for the protection of their property. Applications have been made to the proper authorities for a permanent military force, and for police officers from London, and a large reward will be offered for the discovery of the persons who have been concerned in these outrages. The. pro- perty destroyed and stolen is supposed to be of the value of nearly £ 3000. Contrary statements having been published, we are authorised to state that the description of goods out of the manufacture of which the dispute has arisen, has been made for upwards of four months past with- out any complaint of the men that the wages paid to them were an infraction of the list of prices agreed upon; and we are informed, on unquestionable authority, that no attempt has been made by any manufacturer to reduce the wages of his men for any description of goods whatever.— Worcester Herald. Captains Smith and Markham, of the 32d Regiment, principal and second in the late fatal duel near Dub- lin, in which Mr. S Stamer O'Grady was kiifed, were on Tuesday found guilty of manslaughter, and sen- tenced to undergo twelve months' imprisonment irt Kihnainham gaol. The prisoners received ah excel- lent character from a number of military friends, aiid the jury recommended them to the merciful con- sideration of the Court. The late Nathanie! Grundy, Esq. of Bath, who died about a month sin£ e, has bequeathed to the- Devon arjd Exeter Deaf and Dumb Institution, and the Devon ' and Exeter Eye- Infirmary, ,£ 12000 each, and ha<? directed them to be immediately paid. Mr. Grundy has also left £ 2000 to the Deaf and Dumb Asylum in the Kent Road, London ; £ 2000' to the Asylum for the Blind ; and £ 2000 to the Magdalen Hospital ih St. George's Fields. The intended new street from Waterloo Bridge fo Charles stfeet, Covent,- garden, and from thence to Bloomsbury, is at length decided upon, and will be Commenced immediately, the Warrant for that pur- pose having been issued to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests oti Thursday last. The upper end of the east side of Bow- street, facing Cogent- garden Theatre, will be formed into a handsome crescent, for which designs have been submitted and approved, and by these Means the width of the opening into Long Acre will be increased,: which has long " been desirable. Immediately facing, a new- street will be crected by the Mercers' Company from Long- Acre to Plunltree- street, Bloorrisbury. One side of Plumtree- street is to be taken down to in- crease its width; and thus what IvaS so long' been considered a desideratum by many persons will be accomplished— a spacious and convenient thorough- fare from the Great Northern ' Road to Waterloo Bridge.

THE DANGER OF CONTRACTING DEBTS.— Let every young man, who wishes to preserve his conscience pure, and his principles untainted, avoid debt as he would a pestilence; it is as difficult to shake off, as fatal in its effects, as widely devastating in. its mischief. Let him re- member tnat every evil is small in its beginning; and let him be careful not to encourage the seeds of mischief, lest to root out the full grown plaut be beyond his strength. In the Insolvent Debtors' Court, in London, on the 14th ult. the Chief Commissioner,- during the progress of a c;\ se took occasion to observe, " that it was most extraordinary that creditors gave themselves so little trouble to present themselves to the Court ft> r the office of Assignee, the expense of which vvas trivial iu the first instance. Imagining that the moment the insolvent was discharged from custody there was an end of their claim, they supinely set tbems; Ives down with the loss, most probably uttering some invective against the pernicious tendency of the act,, with the principles of which they were totally unacquainted. They blamed an act of parliam> nt, the origin of which was humanity, when the entire blame was with them- selve--, in no' taking an assignment of the property, and coing an act of justice to themselves aud the creditors by sharing what was assigned by the in- solvent, and, by virtue of the assignment., vigilantly looking af. er his future effects. In many instances where, creditors looked to the estates'of insolvents, a good dividend bad been paid, and. several casrs came within his knowledge where twenty shillings in the pound had been paid. Frequently after the discharge of an insolvent debtor he had compounded with his creditors and withdrawn his petition from the files of the court— a proceeding with which the public were generally unacquainted, and which lie could wish was generally known-.. , An immense number of insolvents remained unrepresented, whereby their estates were wasted, and creditors bv their indolence l > st what, by a little activity, they might have obtained. He further observed, that in cases of* bankruptcy, where a certificate was obtained, the bankrupt was for ever discharged. This was not the case with respect to insolvent debtors; their bodies were discharged, but their future eff cts were always I able. He. threw out these hints in the hope that tliey might be useful even at the eleventh hour.'*' The likeness- taking Automaton is at length about to leave us. The success that it has met, with in Shrewsbury is almost unprecedented ; and those who shp too which requires the serious attention of the i have neglected to avail themselves of the talents of wlole empire, and to which public notice cannot be this Figure will do wisely to make the most of the too speedily drawn.

NEW CHURCH, Castle Fore< jate, Shrewsbury. The necessity of additional church accommodation for a population of upwards of 3500 persons who inhabit the extensive suburb nnd vicinity of Castle Foregate, the Old Heath, and Colon Hill, having been long and generally acknowledged, it Was deter- mined at meeting of gentlemen, parishioners, and others, held in the vestry of St Mary's Church, on the 26lh August, ls- 28, to build a church on a site to he procured iu the neighbourhood of the Castle Fore- gate, with free sittings for at ( east two- thirds of the number it may contain, and to open a subset i pi ion for that purpose, which was accordingly commenced, and prtcetded in with much spirited liberality. The parishioners of St. Wary, desirous also of remedying ( be inconvenient and crowded state in which repeated interments resulting from a populous parish for upwards of one thousand years had ren- dered the cemetry attached to their church, pur- chased, early in 1S29, an eligible piece of land, an acre iti extent, in the Castle Foregate, for the twofold purpose of erecting the new church arid affording additional burial- ground and on the 12lh of May in tbe year last- nafticd the building now under notice was commenced, and, under active and judicious management, litis proceeded so fur as to admit of consecration on Tuesday, the 24' h ult. The situation chosen for the church is delightful, ns, though nearly at the extremity of the Castle Fore- gate, it is seen to advantage from most of ( he ap- proaches to Shrewsbury; its western side commands an interesting view of the town— the Venerable castle with its lowers and hoary walls mantled with exuber- ant foliage, the Royal Free Grammar Schools, ( lie lofty spires of St. Mary's and St. Alkmuntl's churches, combine to form a pleasing group; whilst the fine church of St. Chad, backed by distant mountains, stands prominent in ( he front. On the northern side is a picturesque dell, the ancient course along which the majestic Severn once proudly rolled its winding stream ;— the eastern prospect being bounded by the AVrekin and the gentler eminence of Haghmond. THE CHURCH, dedicaled ( o S(. Michael, is a respectable building in the Grecian style, composed of brick with stone dress- ings. In plan it consists of a tower, nave, side aisles, anil an elliptical recess for the communion; and a vestry within the base of the tower. THE TOWER is of three divisions, and rises to the height of seventy feet: the basement is square, on which rests an octa- gonal belfry, crowned by a similar one of smaller dimensions, with a cornice chargcd with heads, lie vices, & c. the w hole being surmounted by an angular leatl roof and a gilded cross. The body of Ihe church is in length 70 feet 6 inches, and 40 feet G inches in width, and has a stone plinth, cornice, and parapet; the windows are circular. In ailed, having an unbroken stone architrave sur- rounding them, und are glazed in lead after a peculiar and neat pattern ; the angular exterior of the recess for ( he communion has a plinth atirl cornice, lint ( er minuting tinder the principal cornice of the building having a circular- headed window in each of the three angles. THE INTERIOR is approached by two entrances, north and south beneath a stone pediment sustained on not a*; and if not splendid in decoration, it has that simplicity v. hich becomclh the HOUSE OF GOD: it possesses, however, one great, advantage, in being capable of comfortably accommodating a congregation of eight hundred persons, six hundred and twenty of whom may possess free sittings, tin the floor are thirty- six pews, tint other portion being free. There are gal- leries over ( lie norlh and south aisles, the whole of which are free, as well as a spacious one erected at the west end at the expense of the Rev. W. G. Row land, for ( he use of poor children. These galleries are sustained on cast iron columns, which are also continued for the support of the roof. The front* of Ihe galleries are quite plain, having moulded plinth and capping only. The ceiling lias a good effect, being panelled in large square compartments, and judiciously coloured ' llie pulpit, which is octangular, is on the north side of the church ; the reading desk is on the opposite side, aud in a corresponding style. The eastern end is finished by three square panels which w ill lie inscribed according to the Canon of the Church.— Three windows of splendid stained glass, comprising Scriptural subjects, from rare and bcauti ful designs of the ancient masters, are, by the muni- ficence of the Rev. W. G. Rowland, now in progress ami he has likewise presented a flagon, two cups, ami two patens, for the use of the Communion. A good peal of six bells will also be placed in the steeple by the time Ihe church is opened for reguht Sabbath Service, which, owing to the interior not be ing quite completed, is not expected lo t^ ke place fo a no nth hence. Cpon the whole, the church is highly creditable to the abilities of the architect, Mr. John Cirline, tin. I tu the workmanship of the builders, Messrs Joseph Birch antl Sons; and when we con- sider that it was erected nt an expense of little more than £ 2000, criticism is disarmed in the solid and chaste appearance which it possesses, truly Icoking " As llioiifih » e owind a God, adored his power, Reified his wisdom, loved his nietov " The ( lay of consecration having been ( as already slated) fixed for the 24- 1 11 nit. the church was filled at an early hour by a most respectable Congregation, the west gallery being reserved exclusively for ladies.— At eleven o'clock the Bishop was received at the gates of the churchyard by the Venerable Archdeacons Butler antl Rather, the Rev. Will. Gorsuch Rowland, Minister and Official of St Mary's, the Rev. T. 15. I- utener, and other clergymen, in their robes. They proceeded to the south door of the church, where a petition was presented to the Bishop and read, praying that he would consecrate the church: this being ( tided, the Bishop, his Chaplains, and the Clergy entered Ihe church, and proceeded up the middle aisle, repeating alternately Ihe 24th Psalm, the Bishop one verse and the Clergy the other; the Bishop and his Chaplains with Archdeacon Bather went wiihin the communion space, tho Officiating Minister lo Ihe trading desk, and the preacher to a convenient seat near the pulpit. The Bishop then standing up, and turning to the congregation, read that portion of Ihe consecration service, beginning " Dearly beloved in ( he Lord," & c. ami being again seated in his chair, had the instrument of donation antl endowment pre- sented and read to him ;— after which ( he regular service of the day was impressively read by the Rev. W. G. Rowland. The communion service was read by ( he Bishop, assisted by the Venerable Archdeacons Bather and Hodsbn. After the 100th Psalm ( old version) had been sung, ( he Venerable Archdeacon Butler delivered an ap- propriate discourse from ( he 7th chapter of Acls, ( lie 48th, 49th, and 50th verses. He showed that the words of his text formed part of the answer made by Stephen before the High Priest, when lie was accused of blasphemy,— proceeding to explain that the faber- nacle in the wilderness was first set up in Shitoh, and removed by David to Jerusalem, who, considering that lie dwelt in a house of cedars, thought it not becoming that the ark of the covenant of the Lord should remain under curtains. David, therefore, made ready to build a house, which he considered should be suitable for the dwelling of the Lord ; but ( he Almighty forbad him, signifying that Solomon should build a house for the glory of Jlis name. Solomon accordingly btiilt n temple to the Lord with a degree of magnificence that exceeds our description, and having dedicated it most devoutly with sacrifices, prayers, and peace- offerings, ( as recorded in the 8th chapter of the 1st book of Kings,) a testimony that Solomon's prayer Itatl been heard was given, by fsre coining down from Heaven, anil tbe glory of the l ord tilling the house, so that the priests could not enter in. The Reverend Archdeacon then noticed tliat fhe Temple is generally considered ( o have been the only edifice erected for the'worship of God in the land of Palestine until the return of the Jews from captivity, after which synagogues began to be built; yet, though they had no public buildings fur such service, it is Considered probable that they had assemblies called prayer houses, antl that they assembled under tlie shade of spreading oak or palm trees;— since Joshua lias said, " Behold this stone shall be a wit- ness; 1'— and under such as Deborah sat when she judged Israel. It is not, however, to be supposed that the priests woftld let the people be ignorant,— each family possessing an instructor in its head ;— besides these, there were schools for the Prophets, their office being not altogether confined to future events, but to exhort and set forth God's word — to stir up the people to a performance of their duty by continually reminding them of it, being either settled ministers or itinerant preachers. Still this chosen people of God, though led by his holy servant Moses, and warned by Ihe Prophets, lapsed into the grossest idolatry of the heathen nations, until syna- gogues were built in the land. In reference ( o Jerusalem, the learned Preacher remarked, that in its utmost extent it is only four miles in circumference, containing about 30,000 in- habitants, though it is described by Joseph us as being in ancient time four times greater in population, and sfill more during the great Religious Festival, there being one million two hundred thousand persons said to have perished on the destruction of that city, at which period there were 500 synagogues besides the Temple. And whilst we arc grateful that we live in a Christian land, where the light of truth has shone in its brighlesl effulgence for three hundred years, let us hope that light, may continue to shine, and that what- ever mischiefs Infidelity may plot, or enthusiastic zealots execute, loyalty may prevail, and the know- ledge of the word of God increase, to promote which we cannot do better than provide convenient places of worship. The Archdeacon here adverted to the bad practice of pews being- used in the churches of this country, a custom little known to other nations, and by which church accommodation is much infringed upon ; nor could be believe that it. was a spirit of dissent or hostility that kept many away from the church, but an idea among the more wealthy of not wishing fo intrude into the seats of others, and of a belief among Ibe poor that there was no accommodation for ( hem To the exertions of the Commissioners and the Incor- porated Society we aie, however, indebted for having provided 400,000 sittings, 250.000 of which are free. At ( he same time he mentioned a striking fact, that although we have no means of knowing exactly the pulation of Shrewsbury at the time of the Reforma- tinn, yet we might fix it at somewhat near 7000, when there were the present number of churches, with four large priory churches and eight chapels. Ill 1695, il. was 7383, with ( he present five chinches; in 1750, 8141 ; in 1821, 18,000, anil this with only the five churches. The necessity, therefore, of in- creasing church accommodation in this ( own was obvious ( o every reflecting mind ; and that the build ing now erected might be well filled was bis earnest hope, as well as ( hat it might be supported by a faith ful minister who will dwell on tbe great practical truths of Christianity— the love of Christ— the duties of repentance and submission to the Divine Will— and the importance of truth, honesty, anil sobriety in our dealings with mankind. It is also necessary, lie observed, that there be docile hearers, attending in a spirit of humility and holy fear, so that they may receive with meekness ( he engrafted word which is able to save their souls. The preacher particularly urged the young who may attend this church to regard the instruction given; because those who have contributed to the completion of this work have not sought their own ail vantage; and though it is necessary that they who preach the gospel should live by the gospel, it is not the desire of the Minister of this church to enrich himself, but to bestow his labours for the benefit of bis christian brethren. In conclusion, he warned those that have the op- portunity now afforded them, not to neglect the means of salvation that will be set before them on every sabbath in ( his modest. and unpretending building', but to purify ( heir hearts by ( lie inspiration of that Holy Spirit which would guide thcin into all peace. The sermon being ended, the Bishop and the Clergy proceeded to the churchyard, w here the sentence of consecration was read, and the Bishop concluded by the usual prayer on such occasions. The spectators then dispersed; but the Bishop and Clergy returned to the church, and partook of the Holy Sacrament. In concluding these observations on the Consecra- tion of Ihe New Church in Castle Foregate, we would remark, that if the Christian Pel if) ion has a tendency to promote the happiness of mankind, antl if Public Worship is admirably adapted to accomplish that design — positions that we think will be readily granted — it must be a source of gratification to know that the erection of tbis edifice in a populous suburb hitherto very dimly illumined with christian light, was begun in a spirit of unanimity, and has proceeded throughout without llie slightest opposition or dis- sension of the parishioners; and if this favourable result was occasioned by the indefatigable exertions of the zealous Minister of the Parish, it forcibly demonstrates that good understanding which should ntall times subsist between a Pastor and his flock, whereby a solid foundation is laid for a superstructure conducive to the promotion of true religion, and strikingly illustrative of that portion of Holy Writ, w hich says, " Let your light so shine before men that they, seeing your good works, may glorify God Ought there fur some time under an assumed name, giving entire satisfaction. He afterwards departed for Hamburgh, and ( ravelled through Denmark, Nor- way, and Lapland, as far as to . tilt: North Gape. In these travels, be was almost always a pedestrian, and had no retinue; and in this school of misfortune he iuibibed those lessons of wisdom and virtue rarely ac- quired by the great, and which appeared destined ( o confer signal blessings on his country. In 1795, he sailed for Philadelphia, and'in 1796, in company with his two brothers, he traversed many parts of Nqftji America, visited the Great Lakes, and passed sopie time among the native tribes. In If- 00, he took up his residence in England, where he lived in respected and unobtrusive retirement; but within seven years after his arrival, tie hail ( he misfortune to lose both his brothers. One of them, the Comte lie Bea. ujo1o! s, died at Malta, whither lie had gone in the hopes of restoring his Jiealth, accompanied by the I) uke of Orleans. Soon after the Duke's return to England, he proceeded, in an English frigate, to Sicily, anil at ( lie Court of Palermo be became acquainted with the daughter of Ferdinand the Fourth, to whom he was married on the 55th of November, TSO0, find by w hom he has had eight children. At the commence- ment of the Peninsular war, be was invited by the Spanish Regency to accept of a military command in Catalonia, but on his arrival at Cadiz, he fotiiid the Government split into factions, and his commission was not confirmed. He then relumed to Sicily, where he continued till the re- establishment of ( he Bourbons in 1814, when he repaired to Paris. On the expul- sion of Louis the lftth, the Duke mice more visited England, where he remained till flie ehtl of 1818. Till the late important Changes that have called him to the ( lii- onr, lie has resided principally in privacy with his family, never having been in favour with the Court, to w'hom his known liberal principles rendered him obnoxious.— In addition to this Prince's amiable character, his intellectual endowments are of the highest order. Ilis knowledge is profound and exten- sive, both in the sciences and tbe belles leltrCs, antl most of the European languages are familiar to him. The Duchess of Orleans, now Queen of ( he French is the daughter of King Ferdinand ( he 4th of Naples, lately deceased, and of M. C. Louisa of I. orrain, Arch- duchess of Austria. She was born at Caserfa, on the 2tith of April, 1782, and received a most liberal ami excellent education. About Ihe year 1798, the Princess became involved in the troubles of her family, when they were driven out of Italy by the French invasion, and forced to take refuge in Sicijy. The Voyage was So tempestuous that her brother, a young Prince of six years old, could not sustain the shock. In a new residence, where nothing had been prepared, and economy became necessary, tiie Princess endured privation whiib her understanding nnd edu- cation taught her to ( urn to good account. From fhe period of her marriage, the most intimate union has subsisted between her and her husband, and they have displayed, since tjieir return to France, a bright example of the conjugal ami domestic virtues, of beneficence and generosity, with a becoming sense of order and propriety. Ruthin, John Roberts the younger was of sound mind and understanding, so as to know the act he was doing. Mr. Corbcttand Mr. Meeson conducted the case on ( he par( of the plaintiff; and the Attorney- General and Mr. Townshend on the part of the defendant. It appeared that John Roberts the elder, consider- ing his son by his first marriage unfit to manage his estate, had joined with him in suffering a recovery, tbe uses of which were afterwards declared by in- dentures of lease and release, in favour of the son by the second marriage, Cadwallader Roberts ( the pre- sent defendant), to the ext lusion of the daughter, the mother of the present plaintiff. The plaintiff pro- duced nineteen witnesses to support his case; and the depositions of two more ( who were dead), who had been examined liy interrogatories in the Court of Chancery, making altogether twenty- one. They proved a number of instances of imbecility of mind ; one witness* said that he remembered John Roberts the younger, at 35 years of age, chewing toffy and gingerbread, and the saliva running out of each side of his mouth ; another mentioned a similar circum- stance which he saw at a fair, and that it had run down his neckerchief and waistcoat in such quantities, that his relations took him into a back street and cleaved him. But the most ludicrous of all the attempts fo prove ( he imbecility of his mind, was the evidence of a ci- derant sweetheart of John's, to whom he had bowed, and for whom she had suffered him to lan- guish for ( en years. She stated, ( hat when he caught hold of her, he would not let her go.' The Attorney- General observed, that his doing so was no great proof of insanity, when he caught fast hold of a pretty woman. It was also stated, that " people would put. women on his knee, and he would catch ( hem round the waist." One witness told of John's singing out " Amen at chapel in the wrong place." The Attorney- General called 20 witnesses on the part Of the defendant, to prove the contrary ; and said he had ten more in reserve. One of them went so far as to say, " John read in ihe Classics." His lordship occupied three hours in summing up. The jury found their verdict " that John Roberts the younger, was not of sufficiently sound mind in 1801 to execute the instrument."— Damages Is. costs 40s. The frial lasted from nine in the morning until ten at night on Monday ; and continued on Tuesday from eight o'clock until five in the afternoon. BATH SUPERNATURALS. fSSiscrUaacous EntcUigencc. RECOGNITION OF LOOS- PHILIP I. We stated some days ago that the English govern- ment would of course recognize the constitutional King of France, We may now state that it is determined to immediately acknowledge Louis- Philip us King of the French. The recognition will, we undetstand, be made in a manner equally prompt aud cardial. The King of England, with the good sense and good feeling which belong to his character, bus expressed in the warmest and most energetic Urms bis anxiety that no unnecessary delay shall lake place in this act of sound policy and international justice. It is not, we hear, yet decided whether fhe recognition of Louis- Philip will be made through the medium of a special mission, or through the regular medium of Lord Stuart de Rothsay. The accession of the French monarch has, it is true, been specially notified to the English government by General Baudrand ; but the absence of tbe Duke of Laval Montmorency from England rendered this slep necessary. It is known that diplomatic etiquette allows the English government the option to avail themselves of the regular channel of the resident ambassador, or of selecting some person especially for that duty. As the wish and determi- nation to recognize Louis- Philip are so decidedly strong and cordial, both ou the part of tbe British Cabinet and British Sovereign, the mere form of the recognition becomes very unimportant. Of one thing we are sure, that neither iu form nor in substance will the King of England or his ministers do any tiling which can throw a doubt ou the zealous sincerity of that recognition.— Times. Our readers will see, from the Court Circular, that General Baudrand, on a special mission from tbe King of the French, was introduced to his Majesty by Ihe Earl of Aberdeen, as Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and delivered- a letter from libs sovereign ( o the King. We never doubted that this ambassador would be received ul court; however, all doubt upon the subject in now at au end. We learn that the Austrian and Prussian embassies have received couriers from their respective govern- ments, with the intelligence that the courts of Vienna and Berlin will immediately acknowledge Louis- Philip.— Morning Chronicle. DENBIGHSHIRE GREAT SESSION. THE ORLEANS FAMILY. At ( he present evenlfnl period, when public atten- tiini is almost entirely absorbed in the contemplation of the important Revolution, we may gratify our readers by presenting them with a brief sketch of the principal members of the new dynasty. Louis Philip the First, King of the French, was horn Oct. G, 1773. He was at first named Due de Valois, but afterwards Due de Chartres. llis educa- tion was entrusted to the celebrated Madame de Geniis. In Jnne, 1791, he was appointed, by the Constituent Assembly, to the colonelcy of the 14th Dragoons, which he conducted to the army of the North. He served in the actions of Quievrain, Courtray, Valmy, arid in the memorable battle on the heights of Jenappe. He afterwards fought at Ander- lecht, Brussels, and Varroux, hut, engaging in the project of Dumourier, for the establishment of a con- stitutional monarchy, a decree of arrest was issued against him by the Republican Government, antl he escaped to the head quarters of the Prince of Cobourg at Mons. Here he was offered the command of a division of the Allies with the rank of Lieutenant- General, but his principles would not allow liirn to fight against his countrymen, and he refused to ac- cept any thing but passports. When reduced almost to destitution, he heard of a vacancy in the mathema- tical professorship of the college at Reichenau, in the Grisons; he became a candidate for the situation, anil obtained it from tiie examiners, to whom his rank and character were altogether unknown. He Sarah Evam, aged 33, pleaded guilty to the charge of stealing sundry articles of wearing apparel, and was sentenced to three months imprisonment. 7homas Morris, aged 27, charged with stealing, on tbe 5th of May last, a quantity of wearing apparel, the property of Robert . Morris, of Carreghora, was acquitted, us the only evidence of the theft was an extorted confession of ( he prisoner, which was inad- missible. BURGLARY. Herbert Owen, aged 32, was indicted for a burglary in the dwelling house of John Parry, on the 5th of April last, and stealing thereout a ham value four shillings. This offence was committed under circumstances of great aggravation. The prosecutor is an infirm old man, who resides near Abergele, and about one o'clock in the morning of the day named in the indictment, the prisoner came to his house and demanded £ 5 or he would set the house on fire. He replied that he had no money, upon which the prisoner barst open the door, biew out a candle which was lighting, knocked the prosecutor down and beat him so severe ly tliat the blood flowed from his head and his collar- bone was broken. The poor man and his wife and child took refuge in an outhouse, and remaintd there until the prisoner left the house, taking a ham with him. Sarah Williams, the servant of the prosecutor, escaped by the back door, and ran across the snow to Abergele to give the alarm, and get assistance. Two men named John and Esau Williams, who came to the prosecutor's house in consequence, traced the prisoner by his foot- steps through the snow, and saw him throw away the ham. The Jury found him guilty ; and lie having been previously sentenced to transportation ( the period of which expired only a few days before he committed this offence), the learned Judge passed sentence of death upon him, w ithout the least hope of mercy. We believe the execution was fixed for Saturday next, Ihe 4th September; but we understand that a respite was forwartled from Mold until further orders. THREATENING LETTER. Thomas Smith, late a clerk in ths employ of Mr. Ward, the lessee of the Chirk collieries, under Mrs. Myddleton Biddulpb, was indicted for sending an anonymous letter, threatening to murder Mr. William Wilson, Mrs. Biddulph's agent, and to burn his hay stack, & c. The alleged ground for writing the letter was the fact of Mr Wilson having appointed a clerk on behalf of Mrs. Myddleton Biddulph, to keep a check on the amount of coals raised, in order to determine the amount of royalty which that lady ought to receive. The evidence in support of the letter ( which is purported to be written by a collier) being in the handwriting of the prisoner w$ s merely the belief of persons who had never seen him write, but who were guided by a comparison of the letter wiih the handwriting of the prisoner. From this, and other circumstances which tended to render the case against the prisoner extremely slight, the Jury found a verdict of Not Guilty. JONES ( INFANT) V. ROBERTS. This was an issue directed by the Vice- Chancellor, as an action brought by the plaintiff, as heir- at- law of Mary Roberts the elder, formerly Jones, daughter of John Roberts the elder, to ascertain whether in the year 1801, at the time of suffering a recovery at " As Bath was once tbe resort of every dis- tinguished character, their fume is still attached to their former abodes, and different edifices are pointed out, as having been the residence in past times, of persons with whose names are connected extraordinary stories. " Marlborough Buildings are thus designated as the dwel| iufi- place of Lady Betty Cobb, one of tho old residentiaries, whose years seemed iutermi liable, and who was particularly distinguished as the narrator of the following story, in which she declared herself an actor and eye- w itness, as people who knew her told me. Lord Tyrone and Miss —— had strongly imbibed infidel opinions, had agreed that whichever died first, would return to inform the survivor of the fate which awaited them. Lord Tyrone went abroad, and the lady was sometime alter married fo Sir Marcus Beres. ford. One morning she appeared at breakfast with a black ribbon round her wrist, and agitated by some secret emotion; and on her husband enquiring the cause, she earnestly requested he would not press her, but ring the bell and enquire if Ihe post hat! come in ; and then said in great agitation, she expected letters announcing the death of Lord Tyrone, who died, she said, at four o'clock the preceding Tuesday. When the post did arrive, it brought a letter announcing that be had actually deceased on the day and hour slated by Lady Bcresford. Shortly after Sir Marcus died, and his widow funned an attachment for the son of a cler- gyman, and notwithstanding the disparity of years married him, who turned out a very profligate character, aud they parted; but on his earnest promise of amendment, they again lived together, and she was delivered of a son. A month alter her confinement was her birth- day, so she sent for her intimate friend, Lady Betty Cobb, and invited a few others to spend the day with her. In tbe morning an elderly clergyman, who had baptized her, came in to inquire after her health; she informed him she was perfectly well, and requested him to spend the day with her, " for'* said she, " you know Ibis is my birth day, and I am forty eight years old "" Tbe clergyman replied that in that point she was mistaken, for in consequence of a difference of opinion with her mother on the subject, lie had inspected the parish registry and found that on this day she was just forty- seven. " Then," said she, in great agitation, " 1 have but a few hours to live." She immediately countermanded her company, and retired to her own room, when she sent for her son, hy her first husband, then aged twenty- two, and her friend Lady Belly Cobb, and when they were all together in her apartment, she told them the following extraordinary story. " Oue night she was suddenly awoke from her sleep, and found Lord, Tyrone sitting on the bed beside her. On interrogating him as to what brought him there at that ' improper hour, he asked her, had she forgotten their mutual promise; and then declared that lie bad died on the Tuesday before ut four o'clock, and was now returned from the grave to reveal to her what she wished to know on the subject of religion ; that Christianity was that only by which she could be saved : he further informed her of the events that afterwards happened to her, just as they occurred, and that she herself should die when she attained her 47th year. Struck with these revelations, yet still doubting if it might not be the delusion of a dream, she demanded some permanent sign by which she might know in the morning that all was not the effects of a disturbed imagination. He then took her tablet, and wrote his name with a pencil on one of the leaves. Still unsatisfied with this, which might have been done at any former time, he seized her wrist with his hand, which felt as cold as marble, and iu a moment the sinews shrunk up and a black mark of the pressure remained iu a circle round il,. charging her at the same time to let no mortal eye see it, as it was done only for her own conviction. He then vanished, and Sir Marcus, who had been all the while in u profound sleep beside her, awoke. The next morning she wrapped her wrist round with a black ribbon, which she never removed afterwards in any one's presence. " Having told this extraordinary story, aud feel- iufir a firm conviction that her hour was come, she requested to be left alone, and seemed to compose herself to sleep. They left the room, charging her maid to sit by her, and if she perceived any change iu her mistress to call them immediately. In about an hour the bell was rung very violently, nnd they rushed in; they found her dead. Tbe servants were then ordered to quit the room, the mysterious ribbon was removed, and her wrist was found as she described it— shrunk and withered, and circled by a black mark as if made by some preternatural pressure. The pocket- book and the ribbon remained in the possession of Lady Betty Cobb, who had no hesitation in shewing them lo her friends, and de- tailing ull Ihe particulars connected with them, so that among the elderly people of Bath, Ihe story is still current. " It is certainly a fact that in the county of Waterford, where the Beresford estates are situated, and the events were said to happen, the story is hereditary in every house; and it is well known that a lady of the family did for a long time conceal a mysterious mark on her hand, and at length expired suddenly, from a strong impression on her mind that she should die on a particular day; but what faculty a ghost could have to write iu a pocket- book or lo impress his incorporeal and spiritual fingers on a solid arm of flesh and blood, 1 am not philosopher enough to account for. Her son, however, was afterwards married to a daughter of Lord Tyrone, according to the predictions of the ghost, and the portrait of the lady, with the black ribbon round her wrist, is, or was to be seen at Curraghmore House, the seal of the Marquess of Waterford, their descendant." Her Majesty, on choosing various tradespeople, particularly her dress- makers, is said to have given Ihetn strict injunctions to use nothing but what was of British manufacture, and to employ native artistes only. It is added, that it was at the same time declar d that neglect of these instructions w ould be followed by the withdrawal of orders. Extract of a private letter received at Toulon, dated Algiers, August 11:—" We are here in a state of revolution. When the orders were received by General Bourmont to hoisl the tri- coloured flag ou the batteries and 011 our shaclios ( caps) he perse vered in keeping up the white flag. The troops showed a very great dissatisfaction ; andj had it not been for the interference of the officers, ihe men would have deposed him. The 17th regiment and a few others have obeyed the orders of govern- ment, notwithstanding the threats of Bourmont fo bring them to a court- martial. Such is the hatred against him that he never goes out without an escort. Admiral Duperri hps hoisted the national flag. The greatest animosity exists between these two commanders, as Bourmont has treated the services of the navy with the most unwarrantable slight. It has a very strange appearance to the Arabs to see Ihe vessels with one flag, and the batteries with another. Intrigues of the basest description are daily taking place, and our position here is one of the most critical nature : treachery is carried to the highest pitch. We are threatened by attacks from the Arabs, who bear tlie greatest hatred towards Europeans, and still wish their ancient masters the Tu ks, back again; for they say, " if we are to be slaves, let us be under men of our own religion and way of thinking." The town is in the most deplorable state. As to comfort it is out of the question. The brain fever and other diseases take Offour men daily. The hospitals are sa full that they are obliged to be put on board ship. An order lias- l> een sent to Mahon for the'reserve of the army. Bourmont now begins to fear the result of his success. The troops complain very much that no prize- mouey has been paid them, notwith- standing the immense treasures found in tbe coffers of the Dey. The gold keys of the city, so much talked of in the dispatches, have disappeared— how, Monsier le General must tell when he arrives at Paris, as orders have been received for his reeal. Uuder tbe title of " The Duke of Buccleuch," the following paragraph is making what is called the round of the press:—" His Grace lias received an accession of £ 370,000 to his enormous fortune, by a decision of the Court of Chancery, which assigns him, as a residuary legatee of the Duke of Queensberry, the accumulation of tbe personal eutales of that nobleman, alter principal and interest of tbe legacies had been paid."— In contradiction to this, we beg to state that in place of £ 370,000 out of the final settlement of the Queensberry legacies, the nobleman alluded to will not receive as many farthings. In fact, his name never appeared in the list of legatees. It is true he fell heir to a large estate, and recovered about £ 100,000 of what in law are called violent profits But he had no interest in the suit in Chancery, and the paragraph ill question would be nearly quite correct, if for the name of the Duke of Buccleuch were substituted the Maiquis of Hertford aud his son.— Dumfries Courier. The bcnttitutioni e' Paris Paper of Tuesday says —" A telegraphic despatch has been received from Toulon, communicating a despatch from Admiral Duperre, w liich announces that 011 the 17th inst. the three- coloured flag was flying on all the batteries of Algiers, and all the men of war and merchant vessels in the road. The admiral aud Bourmont have thus given in tlieir adhesion to the new government." Prince Polignac was married on the 24th of Juue, 1824, to the widow of the Marquis de Choiseul. She was the Hon. Maria Charlotte Parkyns, sister to the present, and daughter of the late Lord Ranclitf'e. The Prince's first lady was a Miss Campbell, whom he married, we believe, iu Scotland. He has issue by both mar- riages. The Essex contest is said to have cost Mr. Wel lesley £ 22,000, and Mr. Western £ 14,000. The Protesiaut gentlemen who subscribed £ 30,000 to meet the expense of Mr. Tyrrell's election, are understood to have expended but a third of the fund, or £ 10,000. BOROUGIIBRIDQE ELECTION.— The two borough bailiffs of Boroughbridge have made each of them a return distinct from the other. Mr. Dew has re- turned Sir Charles Wetherell and Mr. M. Attwood ; and the other borough bailiff, Mr. W. Gray, has returned Mr. Andrew Lawson and Mr. William Mackinnon. His late Majesty's private band were discharged on the 6th instant, but they are to receive their full pay till the 6th of October next. We understand that the leader of the band, Mr. Cramer, waited on the Duke of Wellington, who told him it was pro- bable they would be pensioned acccording to the length of their service, and that each was to render ati account of the length of lime he had been re- tained. We are also informed that Mr. Cramer waited on the D. uke of Sussex, and that his royal highness very kindly promised to interest himself in their behalf. Some of the band have arrived in Brighton. It is believed that bis Majesty will ultimately re- engage some of their number.' Brighton Gazette. ARGUMENT AGAINST THE INTRODUCTION OF RAILWAYS.— The New York Gazette gives the fol- lowing humorous argument, which it says was used by a canal stockholder in opposition to railways:— He saw what would be the effect of it; that it would set Ihe whole w orld a gadding— twenty miles an hour, Sir! Why you will not be able to keep an apprentice boy at his work— every Saturday evening he must take a trip to Ohio, to spend the Sabba( h with his sweetheart. Grave plodding citizens will he flying about like comets.— All local attachments will then be at an end. It will also encourage flightiness of intellect. Various people will turn themselves into Ihe most immeasurable liars : all their conceptions will be exaggerated by their magnificent notions of distance— 4 only a hundred miles off? Tut, nonsense. I'll step across, Madam, and bring your fan !' * Pray, Sir, w ill you dine with me to day, at liiv little box on the Alleghany ?' * Why, indeed, 1 don't know— I shall be in town until 12— well, 1 shall be there, but you must let me off in time for the theatre.' And then, Sir, there will be barrels of pork, antl cargoes of flour, and chaldrons of coal, and even lead and whiskey, and such little sober things, that have always been used to sober travelling— whisking away like a set of sky- rockets. It will upset all the gravity of the nation. If a couple of gentlemen have an affair of honour, it is only to steal off' to the Rocky Mount- ains, and there 110 jurisdiction can touch them. And then, Sir, think of flying for debt! A set of bailiffs mounted on bomb shells, would not overtake an ab- sconded debtor— only give him a fair start. Upon the whole, Sir, it is a pestilential, topsyturvy, harum- scarum whirligig. Give me the old, solemn, straight- forward, regular Dutch canal— three miles au hour for expresses, and two for jog or trot journies— with a yoke of oxen for a heavy load ! 1 go for beasts of burden ; it is more primitive and scriptural, and suits a moral and religious people better. None of your hop- skip- and- jump whimsies for me." DAHLIAS.— The Dahlia was a flower unknown in Europe, within tbe last twenty years; it is a native of the marshes of Peru ; it was called after Dalit, the famous Swedish botanist. Its varieties at present amount to nearly six hundred. The most beautiful flowering time of the dahlia, is from the beginning of August lo tbe middle of October: a temperature of ten or twelve degreees appears to be the most favourable for them. About nine or ten o'clock in the morning is the time when the dahlia is seen to the greatest advantage, an hour or two after, when the sun has darted his rays upon them, they huve not the same freshness of colour. Per- haps the most magnificent way of decorating a pleasure ground, is to plant them in several ranks— the tallest in the back ground, aud successively of lower height, till the front row or dwarf ones : Ihe eye ranges over this bank of varied coloors with the greatest satisfaction. The dahlia is multiplied by seeds, and parting the roots ; the French say, by slips and grafts ; bat they are so easily increased by the two first methods, that the others need not be adopted even if practicable. The double varieties that flower the first in Ihe time, are those whose time of florescence soonest terminates, while the latter plants whose first blossoms are lovely, generally furnish the finest flowers, even to the approach of winter.— Lady's Magazine. Few diseases have more baffled the Faculty than Scrofula and Scurvy in their various forms, and for their cure almost every article in the Materia Medica has been tried without success. The only Medicine of repute at this time is Mr. Lignum's Antiscorbutic Drops, which have certainly been very successful in eradicating these harassing Complaints. Scarce a week occurs but we have an opportunity of recording a well- authenticated cure performed by these Drops. For a reccut one— jee our first page. At the Privy Council, on Wednesday, it was agreed On that Parliament should be prorogued from the 14th of September to the 26th of October— then to meet for the despatch of business. THE PRINCIPLE OF REPRESENTATIFTN.— its operation on the whole order of society became, in the course of centuries, still more worthy of atten. tion; though, B9 it acted by opinion rather than- by law, it was neither easy to trace and measure its unfelt progress, nor in a few words to describe its nature, and to afford clear proof of its insensible but extensive influence. Its source was evidently the parliamentary union of Ihe lesser nobility with the burgesses, which could not fail in doe time to produce a correspondent union throughout society. In the reign of Edward ll. the fords between tho orders were so passable, that commoners seem to have been called to tbe peerage. It was not till the time of Henry VI. that the word " gentleman" began to be used in somewhat of that modern sense which distinguishes it legally from a nobleman, and morally from an uneducated plebeian. In the further stages of tbe progress heralds and genealogists began to complain of its indiscrimination, while in their antiquarian pleasantry they represented it as being usurped by every idle and useless upstart. The principle of birth continued to lie at the foun- dation of the body of gentry, and lent to every newly- received candidate some portion of a feeliug which is so much mingled with the moralities of education, with the means of generosity, and with lasting exemption from grievous aud disreputable toil, that, except where it is counteracted by jealousy, it never can fail, with or without the aid of legal privilege, to be an agreeable object of contemplation, whether in our cwn possession or that of others. But iu the course of ages the body gradually opened their arms to receive among them, all men of iiberal education and condition. It be- came a species of voluntary aristocracy, which after some silent trial adopted every man who appeared to be distinguished from the multitude. It vras bestowed neither by kings nor laws: and it was only to be withdrawn silently on strong appearances that the delicacies and refinements of honours, which were imposed when the rank was granted, had been disregarded by some of its possessors. One of its last and most modern results was an unbroken chain of connection extending from tho steps of the throne to Ihe lowest limit of liberal education. It would be easy to multiply examples of gentlemen of moderate fortune, whose affinities and relationships now spread nearly to the opposite points. Distant as the extremities are, Ihe steps are in the intermediate degrees short, and made without effort. Every accurate observer may easily convince himself how much all the parts of the chain are fastened together by links, more in number and strength than would at first be thought probable. The natural subserviency of this inter, mixture of interests and attachments to the quiet and harmony of the community *! 9 too obvious to need illustration. Hence it ill a great measure came to pass, that the fiercest civil dissentions of after- times were not between orders, but between parties, each of whom contained in itself a portion of every order, checking the tendency of each other to extremities, and affording inducements tomodera- tion as well as channels of compromise. Hence, perhaps, also that extraordinary union of the prin- ciples of stability and advancement which has enabled the British Constitution to pass unbroken through so vast an extent of time and place; to control an absolute monarchy in India ; and, after political separation, to witness its laws and institu- tions flourishing among the North American demo- cracies. Nothing short of a union of the most seemingly discordant classes, linked together by ties too deep for common observation, could fit it lo be a bond of union between the most ancient times of which we have an account, and the most remote futurity which our imagination can anticipate.— Mackintosh's History of England : Cabintt Cy- clop trdia. WARDROBE OF GEORGE THE FOURTH. ™ — The wardrobe of the lale King has been on sale for the last week, at the ware- rooms of the King's cabinet- maker, in Mount- street; and, although it has not been deemed decorous to make the display of royal garments as common as other exhibitions, yet the notoriety has been sufficient to attract a considerable number of the admirers of such gear. We are credibly informed, that the present King was kind enough to present it to three of the pages of the late monarch ; and, when our readers are told, that it required three waggons to transport it from Windsor to London, they will not be much sur- prised to hear that the value of the gift is estimated not much less than fifteen thousand pounds. When we first saw it, the garments were displayed in two separate rooms, the one containing the splendid, tho other the more ordinary apparel. Iu the former were the gorgeous coronation robes; regimentals, British and Foreign, covered with a profusion of lace; robes of the various foreign orders of which the late Kiug- was a member ; a dress said la have been worn by the gallant Henry the Fifth ; a scarf of point lace, once the property of the unfortunate Marie Antoinette, and for which we beard £ 150 demanded— this sounded in our ears rather " pro- digious ;" but some of our fair frieuds learned in this point, have since informed us it is a wonderful bargain ; with ermine and silken hose in profusion, and a variety of things looking; very fine, but, to our inexperienced eye, monstrously puzzling to find a use for. " One wondered what to do with such a number Of article, which nobody required." Theotber room contained the habilimentsof ordinary wear— coats, waistcoats, trowscrs, inexpressibles, boots, shoes, and hats enough to equip a regiment. T'o us, to whom the purchase of one coat isa matter of deliberation, and the possession of fu'O a rare occurrence, the number of this portion of man's attire was truly astonishing. A shrewd speculator, as we are informed, purchased one hundred and fifty, nearly two hundred whips, and a great portion of Ihe contents of this room, and is retailing them, at a considerable advantage to himself, hard by the other exhibition. Among the numerous purchasers, some from affection and some from affectation, we hear of the following:— Prince Esterhazy ; Lord Londonderry, a cane at tbe price of thirty guineas; and Lord Chesterfield revels in the possession of a cloak lined with sable, at the moderate price of £ 220: the lining alone is stated to have cost originally £ 800. Lord Harrington was also a purchaser, with a number of others, gentle and simple, whom our limits will not permit us to enumerate. Hamlet, the jeweller, purchased the whole of the gold- headed canes.— Atheneenm. Hereford Assizes presented a singular paucity of business, and the shortness of the Cause List excited some mirth amongst the Gentlemen of the Bar. Mr. Justice Park, on going into Court, and making his salutation, said, " Short commons, 1 understand, Gentlemen."—" Yes, my Lord," replied Mr. Camp- bell, " I am afraid the legitimate expeuces nf the Stafford election will not be paid in Hereford."— The list contained only seven causes, and never, in this county at least, was there so little to do in the Nisi Prius Court. Of the seven causes, three did not go into Court, two related to the same affair and were merely lo ascertain a point of law, and two only were tried, and those of no public interest whatever. The business in the Luw Court was finished on Saturday, and the trials of the prisoners 011 Monday. At Leicester Assizes, J.
