As a Purifier of the Blood they are unrivalled in theij Effects. And their Efficacy has been attesten iu numberless Instances; many of them on Oath before the Magistrates of Shrewsbury; thus' establishing their Pre- eminence over the Nostrums of ignorant Quacks, and over the more established Prescriptions of the Regular Faculty.

Both Houses of Parliament were occupied this evening in uiiscdhtnecfts business, and in tlie reception Petitions o'n the'subject of Parliamentary Reform. The' funds have been declining through the week, and the sales in the Stock Exchange have been immense within tlie last two or three days. The state of affair? in Francs', fhe insurrection in Italy, and the rumours ot war, have been the leading grounds for the decline. til the money market,- and more than all, the t'efljng that flic present ministry Could notcoiitimie in power. - 111 the House oY Cottuifl is," on Friday, Sir James Graham moved the vote on the Na'vjr Estimates, iu i Committee of Supply.— The total estimates presented by the Hon.

The House' of Coimnoiis met on Satimfa'y for the purpose of. rcceiving petitions oii the subjeit of Parlia- mentary l& fenri.-'-- A great hnmher of petitions ( in- cluding those from Moiitgoineryslnre and Ludlow) were presented; and the majority Of , them prayed for Vote by ballot!— Mr . HAUT DA- VIS then presented, the Bristol petition'' against any unconstitutional Reform, and said that' What most of the vote by- ballot men Wanted Was not'Reform but Revolution; and therefore ally sweeping plan of Reform ( so miscalled) should haye his determined opposition. Oil Thursday, the Austrian Minister al Paris offi • cially announced the march of the imperial troops in Italy, to put down several appearances of insurrection, but that this movement was to be confined to the direct Anstriamltalian territory. Accounts froirt Brussels, received oil Saturday af- ternoon, announce' that the' disc'ussjioh of the Regency question in the National Congress. had closed sboner than was expected; and that M. Siirlet de Chokier lias been elecied by a large majority to fill the oflice ol jiegenl of that kingdom. The private, correspondence from Lisbon affords m.'

The Russians had entered Poland at several points along a Into of frontier of three hund ed Englis'i miles, a id the only, actual rencontres between the contending armies seein to have been affairs of the advanced guards. The Russians appear to have advanced llieir prists nearly half way from the frontiers to Warsaw, though the licad- qn liters of General Diebitsch are said not to be yet far from the Bog at Biala, on the direct road to the Polish capital. In the north, the narrow strip which will be observed between the Nienien and Prussia, is occupied by the Russians, and on the south, Lublin has been summoned, and preparations are made for ? siege. A corps under General Geismar has advance! t'owiirds that city.

WrtixhUm, ltd February, 1831, All the advices from Fraiijre indicate an aptiroacliing Convulsion. The Ministers appear so embarrassed, that the government can hardly hold together! and Monta'livet, tho Minister of the Interior, has re'signcd office. The National Guard of Paris, or the . mob, seem in reality master of the destinies of France. If the National G uard will act against the mob, as they did at file tube of the trial of the Ex- ministers, al] may for the jliVesent. be well; if not, the mob must be triumphant tin in the late tumults. As for the army, it is iii such t slate of disorganization,- that it cannot be trusted;' The officers, since the? events of July, have lost all power over if. The Chamber of Deputies has little weight— the Chamber of Peers none. What will bo the next opportunity seizelf upon by ( lift inob to display its strength, there is no conjecturing; but if - it were to be joined, or not opposed by the National Guard, the u setting of llie government is certain, aiid a new revolii tion will begin. PARLIAMENTARY REFORM It is impossible to look around us either at home or abroad, without being alarmed at the position in which the subjects of every Stale in Europe are at this time placed as regards their fealty to the Monarch or Con- stitution to whom they belong, or by which they are governed. The great question which is now debating hi the House of Commons will, il. is plain to foresee, { whether at this crisis it be carried or lost,) divide this nation into two great Parties, such as have not been so distinctly marked since tbe. disastrous days of the Stuarts and the Commonwealth. The appellations of Whig and Tory, high party and low party, are, we apprehend, about to be merged in tlie more concise and intelligible ones of the SUBVERSIVE a d the CONSERVA- TIVE PAR- IT, or, in other words, those whose efforts ton, I to overthrow the Constitution, aud those who are resolved to support it. It would not be possible, if it were necessary, in the columns of a newspaper, to trace tlie various causes which, during the last forty or fifty years, have led to this momentous crisis.

WEDNESDAY* MARCH 1S3L sileh an epoch has arriv tinctions we have ment'oned, all minor ones mnstnow be sunk ; nor can the truth too soon be recognized, for the Constitutional cause and the general good. That the doctrines of popular sovereignty aud the supremacy of physical force have been making the most rapid strides amongst, us, as well as in neighbouring stales, cannot be concealed;—- the period has arrived when an Administration has been formed upon the avowed pledge and principle of increasing the vox populi, and, ?( s the natural consequence, of decreasing the other branches of that Constitution, by which il has hitherto been so happily balanced. " It sngg; t'sls melancholy reflections, in consequence of the strange course we have long held," says Mr. Bnrke in almost, a prophetic spirit, " that we are now .110 longer quarrel! ing about the character or conduct of ' inttn,- or the tcour of measures, but we are'grown otit of hnnionr with the Knglish'Constitution il « eH'; this is become the object of the animosity of Eiiglishmen., The Constitution in former days used to be the admir- ation and envy of the world;* it was the pattern for politicians; llie theme of the eloane it; the meditation of the philosopher. As to Englishmen, it was their pride, tlioir consolation. By it they lived; for it they were ready to die. Us defects, if it hiul any, were partly covered by partiality, and partly borne tiy prti- dence. Now all its excellencies are • forgotpts faults are now forcibly dragged into day, exaggerated by every artifice of misrepresentation.

It was indeed a magnificent assemblage of the wealthy, the beautiful, and the young, arrayed in th. tt transcendant sty le of costume,, which is so characjeristic , of ojir country,— that combination of . gorgeous splendour, with the utmost delicacy and refinement; which has so highly exalted Ihe character of the British female nobility. One of the most gratif> ing circumstam es attendant uiH> n this interesting event, is the" fact () f the greatest portion of the dresses worn at Her Majesty's Drawing- Jtoaw, having been not only inanufactult'd of. knglish materials,. but qho/ mtule by ENGLISH.. dress makers.

Joseph 1 eke, at I/ ady Hatton, near Ludlow. It was discovered in the wagg- on- hor. se stable imiue- < i rately a fie r it took pface, hut having communicated with the loft, it gained such ascendancy as left but. little time to get the h uses and catt le removed, when in a very short period the whole lange of - building, consisting of two stables, a cowhouse, hack stthle. and granarv, were in one mass of fire. The upper part of the building being chiefly of timber and thatch, it raged wilh great fur v. A large concourse of people from Ludlow and the neighbourhood having arrived on the spot all exerted them- selves to Slav the progress of the flames, and by applying water upon the thatch, and at the tame time cutting through the buildimi, by great exertion succeeded in preventing the fire con muni cat ing with the barn, stack yard, and orher buildings. At this lime the engine arrived, and having a good supply of « a e . the fire was soon got under. Every prase is due to all rgjiks issertlbled on the occasion for their great exertion in sup- plying the engine with water, and removing the part of Ihe building, to stop the progress of the raging element. Fortunately there was little wind, or the whole of the buildings and stacks must have been destroyed. The fire originated through the carelessness of a waggoner's boy about 14 years of age, who, I a* ing the care of the horses in the stable, left his lautern and . andle, which during his absence is supposed to have been thrown down by the horses amongst some loose straw. Committed to our County Gaol, Richard Haines, and John JJudton, charged with stealing three bushels of wheat the property of Mr, Parker of Neen Sollers; Johif Ttoth, charged with having unlawfully stabbed, cut, and, wounded John Hind, at paiish of St. Leonard, Bridgnorth; John tVatkinsk.

The upper part of her person was miserably scorched, her legs and feet shockingly scalded, and she was quite dead From the situation in which she was discovered, it is conjtctured that the hook cauuht her clothes in an attempt to take a kettle of boiling water f om the fire, and, bein^ drawn near tiie grate, her clotlves ignited, and in her struggles she kicked over the boiling water. Bfing unable to reach the hook by which she was suspended, she continued to roast until she'was taken down bv tiie yonng man who discovered her. She was quite dead. The jury, after viewing the body, which presented Ihe m<#= t horrifying spec, tacle, returned a'verdict of Accidental Death. The Shropshire Hovnds meet on Wednesday, March 2d ...............

This mansion was built in fhe year by the celebrated li" ibleman of that day, the Dukeo'l'Slirewshury. It formed one of the m. tnv splendid edifices which adorn that part of OXOn, in the neighbourhood of Blenheim; and it was executed in • he first style of art and elegance which that period could afford The tapestry, representing the four quarters of the globe;, was supposed to" be the handsomest iu the kingdom; aud the plas. ter 6rnamen! s which had been cast by Italians brought over expiessly by the duke, were most accomplished worksof art. Of late years the Duke of Beaufort ha « rented tlie mansion and kept up the Oxford hunt fwmi it in au uneqnaHed style ot spirit and accommodation; aud, should this unfortunate ca la mi'ty prevent a continuance of that sport, it will prove a serious d. siippointmeut and incouveuience to the neighbourhood and ' parties who attend, as tlieToss niust he great to the owners of the property. We have not heard if the house was insured. The fire originated in one of the upper bedirooms, w|, ere bed clothes had been placed to air, in the expectation of the arrival of the noble duke and his family, which had been dej^ yed k. consequence of tl. e sudden death of his Grace's brother, Lord C. Somerset, at Brighton.

Wi' r s. feature of ancient manners lo Which he rSfirs in that' A number of the Qnarlerly Review has just issued from the press, in which this question is' discussed by an elaborate and skilful tian'd. After canvassing tlit subject in all its bearings, fhe writer says— " Reform— any thing like what is now talked of as Reform— once commenced, can never, stand still. It in i ist have . the cited of producing a body, prc- ilisposed front its very Origin, dnd still more from the impulses acting on it, io proceed a step further— to urge iiiGt Movement. Pledges fo this effect will be demanded and given, as tbe condition of every return. Thus the reformed Parliament will, in its turn, qfso reform itself; ibis second reformation will be followed by a third ; that, perhaps, by a fourth; and so on till we ireach. the final consummation of all. We shall be driiwn into a toil from which there can he no escape. The suppression of some of fhe close boroughs, and1 the. general extension of fhe elective franchise, will lead first to a general extension. of that franchise, then lo Ihe adoption of the vote by ballot, and then, through successive processes, to the summum bonum 61' tliii- versa! suffrage and annual parliaments. " Mark, then, the singular wisdom of that course in w hich'the reformers would embark you! For a century and up^: arrls, lhe Constitution of* England has been ( lie envy of sii'rrotVnding nations,'— the theme of Ihe philosopher, llie jurist, and the statesman. To transfuse il portion of its spirit into their native iri'sli- tulions has been the highest aspiration of fhe ni6s{ onlighteried patriots of every country ; they have set : it before them as their model, aud tried to copy it ; but the cleverest of them have produced only a spurious image, Which on tlie first rudd touch has shivered into atoms: their attempts at imitation hilive all jrftWd signal and titter failures. Well! in the fatness of liilie, we now arrive at the unexpected discovery, that we ourselves',- and tlie rest 6f the world— statesmen, philosophers und all, have been quite under a mistake; that, iitsfe. Yd of being the best governed and the happitpsf people oii the face of the earth, wc are, and long have been, of all others the most oppressed and . u;_. i. e. Imj that our constitution is a thing so ake upon, r: s to define ; i ft he leading writers" of the press to keep'it continually before the public ndiid, , and to present it always in the most frightful colours, we should be inclined to infer, lhat they thought it very insignificant. Our own belief is, that whatever importance it, possesses, it derives from Sufferance, and that it will shrink at once into nothing beneath tbe grasp of a determined opposition. Those lake a false measure indeed of the inherent energies of the country, who imagine thrit any etlint of open rebellion would be countenanced here'by the same . class* of society which prmnoUd, or were in- different spectators of the rcyolutions pf Paris and Brussels, or would be coped with only by the sort of blundering imbecility which presided on both those memorable Occasions. This much, at all events, is clear— that if there he indeed a real and great danger iti refusing what the Radicals demand, the danger will ncithef be averted nor diminished— hut the contrary— by Conceding what they do not care for. Whatever the danger may be, therefore, it must sooner or later be Confronted; aud if it be indeed in Ibe decrees of Providence, that England is to lie degraded from her place among the nations, there will, at least, be some consolation in the reflection, that we have not been lhc„ yolhntary and forewarned instruments of our own destruction. intolerablejconeeil, Of the projectors of thesC. nota- ble schemes of faxipg, every parish, and banishing oOr industrious aud able- bodied labourers." £ HE CONSCRIPTION. imperial parliament.

And w hat, in the name of all that is saga- cious and profound, do we propose taking into favour and sCttirtg up in ils stead? Why, neither more nor less tliitd tine ol* those same spurious images— oue of those abortive imitations of this very constitution, w hose ill success, iu whatever other land they have been tried, u e are ditity witnessing and daily deploring! " We find it difficult to believe, notwithstanding all that we see and hear, that, with a tierce revolutionary spirit to Combat within, Ireland on the verge of rc- belHftri, a'tul foreign war threatening from without, sane men can really meditate to throw loose tbe bonds by which the social frame is held together, and wil- fully plunge into that career from which there is rto return. StiH less does it appear conceivable, that vfliife alf lliese elements of disorder arc abroad in ( he land, Ihey should have made up their minds to the fearful alternative of dissolving parliament, whether for the purpose of giving effect to their plan of reform if carried, or, if lost ( supposing tbe question in thai case to rCst with them), of obtaining a House of ColVmififis more propitious to their views. From the iliflictiort of such rulers as would, in all likelihood,- form a great part of the ^ presentation of that house, then aud thus thoscn, may the nation yet he Spared ! " It would ill become those who desife to cherish ihe conservative principle, to withhold, in circirar- stances like the present, on any mere party considera- tions, their cordial support from any government which should evince a fixed determination to itphofd that principle. But to this stedfast and Consistent course there stands opposed the rash and unhappy pledge hy which the present admiuistralibli have identified themselves with the panic which they helped to create. It is, therefore, we apprehend, lo Ihe re- union of the Tory parly that the country must after all chiefly look for its present Safety. Among that party there have been ftiany faiilfs committed, which a little more of confidence and ColiSirk'iation on the one side,— and, 16 Speak honestly,- a little more of foresight and less of Spleen on the oilier, might perhaps have spared. Even public principle has been forgotten in tbe excitation of vindictive personal resentments. Nay, some individuals have gone the length of recanting their w hole creed ; and because one old and honoured pillar of their mansion had been shaken, would be content, in their rage, frith nothing less than pulling the whole fabric about their ears. Of these melancholy dissensions tbe country is now tbe victim ; nor is even the late administration itself free from tbe blame of deficient concert ( or the appearance, at least, of deficient concert) among its members. " If ever there was a crisis, however, in which the past discords and resentment's of party ought to merge and be forgotten^ that crisis surely now exists; and we envy not the feelings of the Irian who, appreciating the full danger of the measures now impending over his country can yet, from the recollection of those resentments, withhold his hearty co- operation to resist them. It is not enough, however, that this resistance be organised in parliament; it must be sustained by a moral power from without, by the free voices of that numerous ahd influential body in the community which is opposed to revolution by principle and con- viction, otheiwise it may fall short Of ils aim, and worse ills may ensue. It behoves that body, if they regard their country— if they regard themselves— lo stand forward and speak out, not in timid, half- assent- ing, half dissenting terms, but ih language as uncom- promising as their thoughts. Tbey. may rest assured, that it is not only tbe safest and the wisest, but tbe only safe aiid tlie only wise course. It was not by surrendering ourselves bound and pinioned to the mercy of the enemy, that 1 lie state was presorted in 1793 from tbe assaults of Jacobinism, but by con- fronting its fury willi the array of British aristocracy ( we do nol mean Ihe aristocracy of rank alone, but Ihe aristocracy of rank, wealth, intelligence, and character united)— ail aristocracy such as no oilier country ever before possessed ; an aristocracy, com- petent, by its own mere numerical strength, to put down sedition and rebellion ; which has hitherto, in every season of trial, been the safeguard of the country, and so long as it is true to itself, will con- tinue lo be its safeguard. We have the reason of the case with us, and it is only necessary that it be properly asserted; " If, indeed, tbe blight of cowardice has really fallen till Ibe councils of Ibe realm, and our favour for measures affecting tbe security and very being of the slate is lo be conciliated in future, not by their intrinsic merits, but the vehemence and threats with which Ihey are demanded, then, indeed, we shall lie gin | o despair of our country. But we hope for better things. Symptoms of a more sober way of thinking, of something even like a decided re- action, have been showing themselves within the lust few weeks. Everything in the nature of actual insurrec- tion may now be considered as put down by the vigorous arm of the law. Here, in London, various, little indications have shown themselves of a prevail- ing feeling on the side of order and good government. The reform meetings in the country appear to have been composed chiefly of persons allied by their extreme revolutionary opinions; and the merchants and bankers of Bristol lulve taken the lead, on the" oilier hand, in sending a petition, On tbe subject of reform,. to parliament, whose good sense, manliness, and moderation, do them infinite honour. May Iheir example not be lost on their fellow- countrymen ! " What may be Ibe precise extent and nature of the danger to be apprehended from the denial of such a reform as is required of us, or of any reform to a jury list, to act iu conjunction wit'll the assignee elected by fife creditors.

HOUSE OF COMMONS— TUESDAY. Lord HOWICK, after a debate of sume lefigt'h, obtained leuve to bring iu a bill for facilitating emigration, by enabling parishes, where two- thirds of the rate- payers will consent, to levy a rate, or rather to mortgage ihe rates, for tbe purpose of raising a sum lo convey such paupers io Canada aud other of His Majesty's Colonies, as are willing to emigrate to those colonies.— Sir ( J. Murray, the Chancellor of Ihe Exchequer, Mr. Baring, juu. Mr. A. Baring, Mr. Slaney, and Mr. Brownlow, sup- ported the proposition; which was opposed by Mr. Sadler, Sir E. B. Sugden, Mr. Schonswar, Mr. Boirelf, and Mr. Hunt. The following is a description of that of which we liave all heard, b( if which we have not before seen graphically described. It is taken from a " Journal of a Residence in Normandy"— Consta- ble's Miscellany : — " Wilh some difficulty I found out ihe prefecture, in a narrow obscure street near the LyceC. It ijs. a large but mean- looking structure, surrounding three sides of a quadrangular courl, and the business of the. day was carried oil in tbe central portion. On entering beneath the lofty gateway, I found that the great court was already filled with people, who were all crowding towards the entrance of the old palace, with anxiety aud fear, and every painful feeling depicted in their countenances. There were mothers and fathers come to behold their sous offered up as victims on the allar of war. There also were younger brothers and sisters, aud other girls, who seemed to have all the . delicate anxieties of love in their sun- burnt faces. lu all this vast crowd every eye was turned towards the door, as if ready watching the performance of some sacrifice; and I instinctively assumed a commiserating, me- lancholy tone, as I enquired of a young woman, Whom 1 met coming out of Ibe door, whether it was there that they Were drawing for Ihe conscription. She looked iu my face as if to assure herself that there was a being in tlie Vvo'fld ignorant of what she appeared to kn6w but too well, aiid replied, almost reproachfully, ' Yes, Sir.' 1 made my way as well as 1 could through the crowds which consisted chiefly of women, and entered. The vast apartments were thronged to excess, especially about the fatal door, from which a loud official Voice was beard lo issue, pronouncing tbe names of Ihe future defenders of France,— Eugeue, Victor, Alphoiise, Alexis; while, at each startling sound, an answering voice from Ihc crowd proved that the flo. wer ofthe Norman youth were about me, reply- ing, perhaps unwillingly, to the call of war. For several minutes 1 endeavoured to steal a glance of tbe mysterious apartineut whence tbe stentorian voice of office proceeded; and, upon inquiring among the crowd, was informed that none except those who were lo draw could enter. However, confiding in ibe name of stranger— which, all the world over, but especially in England and France, is a passport to every plnce^- l at length elbowed my way up lo one of ihe grenadiers who were parading backwards and forwards through the throng to keep clear the way lo tbe door, and demanded whether a foreigner might be permitted to be present at Ure drawing. Tbe man replied by politely desiring me to walk in, and every body now made way for me. On entering tbe room, I saw a long table, extending almost from oue side of the apartment to the other, atone end of which saf Ibe officiating person, while a number, of military officers, who wore upon their chins Mhe beard of Hercules aud frowning Mars, and various oilier officials, sat round in conclave'. A wooden seat, like a Turkish divaii,. but considerably nar- rower, ran round tbe room, and upon this ihe conscripts were seated, side by side. Upon looking round, I found I was the only individual present not actually concerned in the business of the day. jn Ihe centre ofthe apartment stood Ihe instrument for measuring tbe conscripts, popularly denomi- nated ' La Toise,' and by tile side of it a gigantic The time of pruning is commonly considered to be . in autumn or- wint'er, when the sap is down and the leaves off; but this is a great mistake, as this work may be done at all times,, provided it is performed with a knife, and that every year. If the shoots be young and slender, it is better 10 rub them off than cut | hem offelean with a Sbarfi instrument; boughs and strong- shoots require an instrument, and from young trees tbey should be taken off as amoolh and as close to Ihe stCm as possible, If a spur'be left, it will be some years before it be grown 6vet, and a flaw, ; if not a decayed place will be Ihe consequence; but if a shoot or even ti considerable bough of a young growing tree be laken off, level with the bar/ t of ihe stent; tbe Wound will skin over the first year, and iu a year or two no traces of it will be left. A large bough of an aged full- grown tree requires a different treatment. To heck off a large bough from an aged tree is a crime of the deep- est dye iu the management of timber. But what ( elation has this mad act to the salutary aftd ne- cessary operation of removing Ibe strong and thick boughs ( in any part of the stem) of a tree in a youthful growing state ? The operations are as distinct as darkness and light, or as evil and good. In ihaf case, the size of tbe wood and the exhausted state of the tree unite to prevent the healing ; aud a defect in the timber consequently takes place : while in Ihis, the wound is inconsiderable,- and tbe vigorous slate of the tree enables it fb' cicatrize the sore, in a few months at farthest, after the opera- tion is performed. By freeing the stems gradually of young trees from the large side shoots, and by keeping their leaders single, a length of stent is with certainly obtained, and at the same lime a cleanliness and evenness of contexture ; and the fiftiber, from the pith to tbe sap, becomes uniformly sound, and of equal strength aud durability.

[ FROM THE TIMES.] " If is now about three vears ago since we spoke with tbe utmost freedom on Ibe subject of euiigra- t'ion-. oilr opinion was decidedly then, as it still unchangeably remains, adverse; but Ibe excellent character of ihe mall who patronised Ihe project,— his zeal, sincerity, and industry iu the cause, and in every cause for his country's service,— together w ith the belief that all projects of this nature must end in abortion, unless promoted by improper methods, Induced us to suspend our operations. The sclie/ he of emigration, however, being now recommended by Lord Howick, tbe son of tbe Prime Minister, and leave being obtained to bring in a bill ' for facilitating settlements in Canada aud Australia by voluntary emigration,' the measure requires ( be fullest consideration. " It is, perhaps, superfluous to say lhat we oppose no man's transporting himself and bis t'ailiily whithersoever be pleases, to Van Diemen's Land or Upper Canada, provided this be not done, at the public expense, and provided there be no beating np for volunteers; bat the present project has a very different aspect. " Tiie motive assigned for this restlessness on the subject of emigration is the absolute certainty, as it is endeavoured to make us believe, that thfte is a redundancy . of bauds. Now w e happen to do mot e than doubt ' this self- evident proposition/ ami Willi some information from all pai ls of the kingdom, we are fully of opinion that there is more wurk which ought to be done, in all those districts iiliere the distress of ihe labourer has been the most striking than there are bauds to do It. Let any man of competent knowledge but look over any farm in such districts, and lie will see that it is uot half tilled. If the farmer had Ibe money first lo employ and pay his labourers, their labour would remu- nerate their employer ten limes over. Why, should he ever be able to add One or two hands to his establishment, are tbey to be taken out of tlie market ? » However, it may be said, there being unctn ployed hands; no matter from what cause, it is better to remove than to take the chance of Ihe British market being able lo find them employment. But how remove them? Lord Howick says, at llie expense of the parish, by borrowing money Upon the rates'. We have not had misery enough in a national point of view, we suppose, from anticipat- ing our future revenues, but we must anticipate our parochial revenues also, ell ? And who is to main- tain the residue of infirm and aged paupers in a parish when Ihe persons capable of labour ( and such are tbe only fit persons for emigration) are removed? We say, that ( without some other cause operating) ihe rates would immediately increase in a parish afler every act of emigration; and for this cause,— that tbe labouring poor can always do something towards the maintenance of Iheir aged aud infirm relatives, who, after Ibe emigration of thei » supporters, must fall wholly ou the rates. Many a plougllboy brings home his eighteen- pence or half- a- crowu a week to his grandmother or widowed mother, who, but for this help, must come wholly to tire parish ! " All emigration bills violate nature and harrow up the feelings ; but Lord Howick's measure is of a character absolutely atrocious. The unhappy fu- gitive still supports his courage when he lakes leave of all that is dear to him on earth, with some vague Idea that be sliall be able to return at some future period to the scenes of his infancy. But Lord Howick's proposition is,^— that tbe emigrant, when once stal led, shall never be allowed to return to bis native land, so as lo be again chargeable on the rates! What law, that is not opposed to every principle of humanity, can bar tbe ports of this country against an individual whose only crime is poverty ? And bow can it be ascertained,. a priori, whether a returning emigrant will hereafter beenme chargeable ou parochial rales or not ? The author of tbe Bill talks like a recruiting Serjeant in u country fair, of bis 3s. 6d. a day as labourers' wages in Canada. But let it be recollected, that, without other documents, high wages may mean only dear, ness of provisions j aud in any case 3s. 6d. a day is not enough to secure a provision for old age in a country where there are no parish rates,— no alms- houses, founded by benevolent ancestors. " Wc have little doubt, therefore, but that such Bill would be a grievous aggravation of individual suffering and of the public difficulties, and hope it will die quietly: but if we find auy vigorous attempt made to carry il, wc shall, without scruple, expose the lolly and the ignorance, mixed with the business now called out the name of oue of the yqiiiig men, and tbe individual sealed at tile ex- treme right started up, aud ran barefooted across ihe rboui to the table, opon which there was an urn covered by a clean white napkin, containingithose little ivory numbers, one of which was to decide his fate. The young man now put his hand into Ibe urn under the napkin, and upon drawing out a number, shewed it io Ihe man in office, who in a loud voice made it knotvn to the crowd. 1 ob- served that when a high number was drawu, the drawer appeared lo be pleased; and otherwise when it was a low one. The cause of Ibis 1 dis- covered afterwards. Of tbe two huudred and odd w hoSe fale was decided that morning, only the first forty eight were to serve in the army. All the numbers above were as so many blanks. A list of all those who drew were entered in Ihe register of the department, with the number drawn marked opposite. " The next operalion the conscript had to perform was to step up to tbe toise, iu order to have his height ascertained, and the result was declared with a loud voice by tbe giant who stood by the Instrument. If uny one appeared nol to be am- bitious of getting credit for his full height, the giant put one of bis paws iipon his back, and the oilier upon his chest, aud thus soon brought bint lo tbe perpendicular line. When this part of the ceremony had been performed, tbe conscript picked up bis Bhoes and bis little cap, and made bis exit by a different door from which be had entered, and anolher victim followed. The room thus became gradually empty, when one of the officials taking up a list of names aud reading it aloud, brought iu another batch ; and thus the room was again filled. Then Ihe same process of drawing, measuring, and shoe aud. cap gathering was repeated, and Ihc crowd again ebbed away one by One at Ibe above- mentioned door. 1 observed that among the young men there occasionally entered a man advanced in years, wilh bald or grey head, and unst& ady foot- steps, whose appearance would seem to indicate lhat he was free from the conscription. Upon going up to one of these old men at the urn, the circumstance was explained— Ihey were fathers come lo draw for their sons, absent on business. I was particularly pleased with the behaviour of the officers towards Ihese otd men. It was gentle and humane iu the extreme. They thee- and- thou'd them familiarly, like a brotherhood of Quakers, and spoke with apparent friendliness of their boys, which was exactly as il should be. Their fate, poor old fellows, was hard enough in itself, and I thought that it argued a flue spirit iu those who thus' endeavoured, by an air of kindness and hu- manity, to make it fall as lightly upon them as possible." fHisceUaneons SatclUflenK. . , DIED. On Friday, the lltli inst. at his baronial mansioiij Maugersbpry Park, Gloucestershire, in the 65th year of his age, Edmund John Chamberlayne, Esq. Lord of ihe . Manor of Maugersbnry, Deputy Lieutenant, and one of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace for the counties of Gloucester, Oxford, and, Worcester. The conscientious regard to principle which distinguished the public and private acts of this gentleman, through- out a. series of years, and the integrity which actuated the unremitted and undaunted zeal- he manifested to- wards furthering the welfare of liip fello'w- c'reatures, and, in a political point of view, the State,; claini our humble tribute: that excellent charitable institution, the Gloucester Infirmary, bears ample teStimotiy to the former; and lo the latter, the County at large, as a strenuous supporter of . its rights and interests. , Few men were better capable of decorating those happy moments which contribute so much towards the endear- ing of domestic life, which the versatility of his genius supported to the last, accompanied by an austere and religious exactitude in his affairs,' together with a mani- festation of those generous feelings intuitive to a good heart. As a scholar, he yielded to none of his cotCmporaries in classical acquirements; and as the accomplished travelled gentleman, we acknowledge with pleasure the dictates of that inestimable art, which softens, refines, and embellishes the intercourse of speijil life, need we say what? " Politeness to every man.' V For the last month Mr. Chamberlayne bad been c'ontplahling, and from that period gradually Suc- cumbed to an internal disease; but up to the last moment possessed full command ' of his intellectual faculties, accompanied by an extraordinary memory even' to' minuthr. The due discharge of tradesmen's bills ap'pe'ared to . occupy those intervals which were Viot dedicated to religion. A few hours before his death, when conversing on the merits of our Blessed Redeemer, he said, ( with an appearance of collecting all his strength iu giving utterance,") " iti my weak state, religious. Consolation comes better through the medium of my affectionate wife, especially as Christ- mas- day last sealed the acknowledgment of my faith; therefore I rest contented, and must not be disturbed, Sir." Under such sentiments, he resigned" himself to the Supreme Will, expiring under the apparent tran- quillity of repose. — Mr. Chajuberlayne was the last lineal descendant male of the Earls of Tankervillft, who came to England with William the Conqueror, and whose flame was changed to that of Chamberlayne by letters patent from King Stephen, in consequence of that family having held the office of Chamberlain in three successive reigns i and front the wealth and poli- tical influence- which tney enjoyed in the councils of succeeding Sovereigns that occupied the British throne, became allied and connected with the leading Nobility of this and the sister kingdom, as well as the house of Nassau, iu the' Low Countries. It is. a singular instance of family independence, that since the reign of Edward 111. none of its members should have claimed the bene- fits accruing from the Peerage; as that Sove reign, by letters patent now in the Tower of London, for great services rendered to the Stale in the person ofSir John Chamberlayne, granted liiih the title of Count Chain- berlayne, Earl of Taukcrville, Viscount MillainC, and High Constable of Normandy, with a warrant to re- ceive 10,000 marks, whenever it should so please t/ iat family tn demand that, sum of the Crown, which had been lent to the King's son in the wars with France. The title of Earl was always given in courtesy, but as the letters patent must have been accompanied by the sum, the family honour never stooped to demand it; the King, however, insisted on their quartering with tlie arms of Chambcrlayne those of Tankerville, which continue to this day as'a proof of right. A Barohetage is also in claim of the successor to this property. Mr. C. died without issue: the children male of. nis twin sister, Mrs. Acherley, ( the wife of John Hawksey Acherley, Esq, barrisler- at- law, of Bath,) succeed, it is supposed, to this accumulation of properly; the eldest, Chamber" layne Acherley, Esq. of Southampton, married the daughter of Mrs. Guy Fairfax, great- niece of the first Lord Clisnxlos; the youngest is Charles'H. Acherley, EstJ. of llie Royal Navy.— Gloucester Journal. HEDGE- ROW TIMBER. the raising of Hedge- row Timber constitutes no inconsiderable part of Ihe business of Planting. The value of good hedges is known to every hus- bandman ; and notwithstanding the complaints againsl Hedge- row Timber, us liable to be knotty, & c. the quality of tbe Timber itself is uot ques- lloned ; ils fuultiness arises wholly from an improper treatment of the tree, and not from the situation of its growth. Weare well aware of the injury resulting. from woo'dy hedge- rows lo'arable and grass inclosures ; but every Ulan experienced in rural matters must be convinced that it is not well pruned trees, but high hedges and low pollards which are the bane of corn aud grass fields. These forming a high and impervious barrier, preclude the air and exercise so essential to Ihe vegetable as well as the animal creation. Neither of these evils, however, result from tall straight timber trees, and tbe hedge kept down lo four or five feet; a circulation of air is iu this case rather promoted than retarded ; and it is well known lhat a pinned hedge will thrive perfectly well under tall- stemmed trees, oaks more especially. It is said that the nation has not yet experienced any real want of timber ; yet with regard to large well- grown oaks, such as aie fit lor the purposes of ship- buitdiiig, there is certainly a growing scarcity throughout Ihe kingdom. When we consider Ihe prodigious quantity of timber w hich is consumed, iu ihe construction of a large vessel, a concern must be felt for the probable situation of this country at some future period. A sevenly- four gun ship swallows up three thousand loads of oak limber. A load of timber is fifty cubical feet ; a Ion, forty feet; consequently, a sevenly- four gun ship takes twq thousand well- grown timber trees, namely, trees of nearly two tons each. PRUNING— As the trees increase in bulk and stature, Ihey will require annual pruning. Much depends upon doing this judiciously. If- it has been neglected too long ( which is generally the case),, care must be bad not to do too much in one season. The leader is the principal and first object ; Ihe large and strong side branches must be taken off gradually, so as not lo wound tbe plant too much, nor let too much air, at once, into the plantation. DEATH OF LORI> OSBORNK Lord Conyers Osborne, second son of his Grace Ihe Duke of Leeds, died on Wednesday night last, at Christ Church, in Oxford University, in the 19th year of his age. Tbe immediate cause of his death has been attributed to ail extravasation of blood in Ibe canal of the spinal marrow, so as to amount to an effusion of blood upon Ibe brain ; but bow thai originated the surgeons could not ascertain, as there was no mark of external injury. It further appeared that his Lordship bad been struggling with a young friend, soon after which he fell from liis chair, and when taken up, life was extinct. A Coroner's Inquest was held on the body, and a verdict returned of Per Infortunium, or chance medley.— Oxford Journal.

A SIMPLE AND EFFECTUAL METHOD OF KILL- ING WASPS.— When a wasps'nest is found, 1 take about ball a pint of tar in a pitch- ladle, and run part of it into the hole where lire nest is ; put tbe remainder of the lar round the mouth of Ihe hole, and ihe job is done. All Ihe wasps that are in the nest are caught in their attempt lo come onl; and those that are out are caught in Iheir attempt to go in : so that none escape. If the nest should be in a place w here Ihe lar will soon get dry, it may, per- haps, be better to put a little more lar round tbe hole Ihe follow ing day ; as, in general, there are a great many ofthe wasps that are out all night, and when the tar is dry it will not catch them. It is nol necessary lo dig oul llie nest ; and ibe tar may be applied at any time, even when Ihe w asps are most busy.— Gardeners' Magazine.

Shortly before twelve o'clock on Sunday night last, a barn belonging to Mr. Hanson, of Bmirdon, a village about five miles from this city , was discovered to be on fire. It appears that a waggoner iff the employ, nient of Mf. Hanson, who was sleeping in fin out- house attaChed to the premises, was awoke about the above hour by Ihe noise and plunging of a liorsc in ihe stable. On getlihg up and going to fhe door, he found that the stable Was full of smoke, and that a barn adjoining it was on fire. He instantly gave Ihe alarm, and in a short time a considerable number of persons were assembled. Having exarfrinefl Hie barn, it was found that a large quantity Of wheat in straw was in flames, and ihat the fire had readied to SQ gfeat a pitch as to render any attempt at extinguish- ing it useless without the assistance of fire- engines. A messenger was accordingly dispatched lb Coventry, and one was speedily sent, accompanied by sixteen men, including three watchmen. By the time how- ever the engine Arrived, fhe whole of the wheat in the barn was consumed, the roof had fallen iti, and the fire had assumed a most alarming appearance, threatening destruction to the whole cf tlte premises, on which Were some valuable ricks of corn and hay. Notwithstanding every exertion, the fire reached an adjoining building, from whence it wasfeared it must inevitably spread to the duelling and oflier houses. It was then proposed to cut Stray the building which hail just been caug'ht by the flames ; Ihis was imme- diately done iti part, and fortunately had lite effect of stopping Ihe work of destruction ; the engine still continued at work on the barn, and the wind provi- dentially blowing in a contrary direction to the premises, the fire was got under. The barn and about sixty bags of unthrashed wheat, together with the building which was pulled down, were all destroyed. Like other circumstances of the kind throughout the country, no cause Can be assigned for Ihis destruction of property. No thrashing machine was used on the premises, nor does it appear that the owner of the property had in any way rendered him- self obnosiods to the peasantry. The most probable conjecture is that it is tbe work Of some incendiaries, w hose oitly diabolical object Can he an indiscriminate destruction of property. The loss is estimated at £ 300, litil the premises were irtshred. A reward of £ 700 has been offered for the discovery of the per- petrators. FLIGHT OF ANOTHER OFFICER OF TIIE TRADES* UNION.— We " understand " that considerable com- motion lias been excited SmOngst Ihe members of the National Association for the Protection of Labour, by the sudden disappearance of one of its Officers, who is supposed to bave carried off with Ittm a considerable sum of money. It appears that he had been required by tbe committee, to make up bis accounts during the present week ; and being probably of opinion lhat he could not ( like Mr. Doherty), evade such a demand, by assuring his constituents that " weak minds could not bear" a full disclosure of Ihe stale ofthe funds, he went off, and with him, we believe, disappeared tbe cash in his possession. What is the precise amount of Ihe defalcation we have not learned ; but we suppose it must be considerable, as Mr. Doherty is said to have gone to Loudon in pursuit of him, whilst oilier persons bave been dispatched to Liverpool, Hull, and other places to which it is supposed he may have gone. We should think lhat the repetition of occurrences of this nature must at length open the eyes of tbe honest and industrious workmen of the district, wli'O are induced lo pay large sums of money from Which they never can derive the slightest benefit, but which will be all absorbed in various ways by Ihe people who contrive to exist 6u ( heir credulity.— Manchester Paper. MR. GURNEY'S STEAM CARRIAGES— Commenced running on Tuesday between Cheltenham aud Gloucester, on which occasion Ibe greatest interest was excited. At Cheltenham and along the road lo Gloucester an immense crowd had collected lo witness the starting ofthe first carriage. It left Ihe Commissioners' yard at twelve o'clock, and was propelled several hours through the principal streets and roads ill aud about Cheltenham, appa- rently to divide as much as possible Ihe people, and at the same time lo gralify their curiosity. The carriage is elegant and light in appearance, aud constructed to carry or draw, or both. On . tha steam- carriage were ten persons, and in the vehicle attached to it eight more. Il continued running through tbe streets and Montpellicr drives unlit lliree o'clock, when it returned to the Commis- sioners' yard. The crowd by this time was divided, and after taking in waler and coke the carriage immediately stal led for Gloucester; it made llio distance, nine miles, in 48 minutes ; Ihe inotionwas steady and uniform, Ihe rale scarcely varying per- ceptibly Ihe whole distance. After laking iu a fresh supply of water aud coke at Gloucester, it returned again to Cheltenham, accompanied by several private carriages and gentlemen cn horse- back. ' Ihc carriage was regulated, stopped, and turned, wilh most extraordinary facility, and although it wonld have been difficult to have driven quiet horses safely under similar circum- stances, it is most satisfactory to observe that not the slighest accident occurred during Ihe day. A case arisiug out of the transactions ofthe British Iron CQippauy, came " before the Court of Exchequer last week, the briefs to Counsel in which consisted of about seventeen reams of paper. The statement of the bill, tbe answers, and pleadings, occupied about 13,000 folios ; and eighty eight large skins of parch- ment were filled with the plaintiff's interrogatories. The examination of witnesses cost £ 1,500 a side, and £ 2,000 was expended in procuring office copies of the evidence. The Suit which has caused this enormous expense, was instituted by three gentlemen named Small, Shears, and Taylor, lo set aside a contract which they entered into in 1825, to purchase some mines in Staffordshire of Mr. Altwood for £ 550,000, which they allege were not worth more than £ 160,000.— The cause came before the Court with the view of procuring further evidence. IM. Champollion has made a discovery that affords an additional proof of the authenticity of Scripture. Among a considerable collection of portraits w hich he has brought from Egypt, is that of Srcouchis, father of the twenty- second dynasty.

Champollion has also observed Reboboam, Salo- mon's son and successor, among the effigies i f the captive Kings. NATIONAL EDUCATION IN ENGLAND.—' Whatever has of late been done in this country under the name of improvement in education, has invariably borne a manufacturing aspect. The question has not been— What must we do to give every child Ihe best possi- ble education ? but— what arc the best means of educating the greatest possible number of children with tlie smallest expense of capital, and of human labour? So that, without the slightest regard being paid lo Ibe treatment which the child's mind and heart receive, it has been considered as an unques- tionable proof of a superior system, that one master should lie enabled to drill a thousand children instead of a hundred, and lhat tbe movements of Ibe mass should strike ihc eye as more regular and less interrupted by any expression of individual thought and feeling, than what bad been exhibited before, under a less perfect system of machinery.— Riber's Lectures.
