MING's ESSENCE for LAMENESS in HORSES. MR. GEORGE ROBINS AS the honour to announce, that he is directed by the Trustees lo offer, fnr unre- stricted com petition', on the Premises, at THIRLESTAFNR MANSION, on Thursday, the 29th of September, at One, the splendid FREEHOLD MANSION AND OFFICES, CALLED TH1RLESTAINE HOUSE, on the confines of Cheltenham, erected during the last seven yenrs, in a manner wtirthy of imitation, in. usmneh as substantiality is combined with the happiest efforts of ihe classic school. It is modelled upon the Ionic order of architecture. The vestibule is decorated with the finest examples of the Grecian fluted Ionic columns, with all the purest originalities, after the order of the Temple of Bacchus, at Teos. It presents a most imposing- front, ornamented by colossal t'olnmns of the pure Bath stone. The windows are of the largest plates of glass fitted in solid mahogany. The other front is on a moderated scale, an imitation of RAGLEY HALL, the SKAT of the MARQUIS of HERTFORD. Of the interior, a lengthened description would he hardly adequate to do it justice, ami the usual confine of an advertisement absolutely prohibits iu In pursu- ing the pleasant task of giving only a faint outline, » t mav be well observed that nearly ONE HUNOR ED THOUSAND POUNDS HAVE BEEN EXPENDED on its COMPLETION, which simple fact will make it manifest that it is THE DISTINGUISHING FEATURE OF THIS HIGHLY POPULAR WATERING PLACE; what may be better understood, is the principal lion of the place, where little hundreds annually congregate, and which no person of acknowledged taste fails to visit. It is, iu fact, worthy of THE REPOSE OF ROYALTY, and would be the only suitable abode for HIS MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY, in the very probable event of his honouring this town by his august presence. Returning to the subject in its internal accommodation, it may be observed, that the grand suite of rooms would lose nothing by com- parison with the most renowned Mansion in England. The infinite taste which pervades the whole is so per- fect as to appear to require ocular demonstration to confirm it; the. rooms are five in number, and as tliey communicate with each other by massive double doors, the effect, when all are open, is not easily described, and ihe windows, composed of plates of glass of unusually large dimensions, necessarily add to the delightful illusion. The bed chambers, and those of a secondary class, are almost, multitudinous, and perfectly harmonise with the rest. The domestic arrangement is all that can be desired, while the taste and singular style of the kitchen and cellars ( which in other mansions rarely require or deserve a separate commendation) may be. assimilated with all due deferente, yet equal confidence, to those of the PAVILION AT BRIGHTON. The rringe of the bins, formed of ponderous stone, are forty- five in number, each intended to hold one pipe of wine ; adjoining is fii dep# t for eighteen pipes in wood; and there i<? a large outward cellar, the temperature excellent, and the whole thoroughly dry. THE COURT YAIlb AND OFFICES are quite detached, and present a building not a little refreshing to behold as HI contradistinction to any of its compeers of modern date. A drawing of this fine buihling, token for the SporliiigGazette, will be lithographed, and accompany the printed particulars, and a description of the stables ( which this respectable work thought of sufficient im- portance to give in a separate number) will therein be more particularly described ; it need only be observed, tliey leave all that the humble composer of this hasty sketch has seen at an immeasurable distanCfc. The Gardens and Pleasure Grounds, adorned by a conservatory and grapery, tire resplendent in American plants and flowering shrubs. Two lodge gates iu good taste complete the coup il'ccil. To conclude: if there be any who . may think the picture, so imperfectly described, to be at all over, charged, they nre respectfully, but earnestly, invited to seek ocular demonstration. Mr. ROBINS is exceedingly anxious to convey to the public a knowledge of the important fact that the Trustees huve directed him to sell this unequalled Mansion, at any sum that mav be offered by PUBLIC COMPETITION: and on the same and. following day will be Sold un reservedly, tbe SERVICE OF SPLENDID SILVER PLATE, from the Magasin of Rundell & Co. It includes every thing that may he considered useful as'Well as decora- tive— exceedingly massive— in the last fashion— the workmanship quite elaborate. THE CHINA AND GLASS are really splendid; in the former it may be visible how much has been accomplished by native talent, and its evident superiority ( as it regards the painting,) over the French manufacture. The materiel of tbe kitchen has never beeu in nse$ and fears uot a com- parison any where. THE MISCELLANIES, including the Library of Books, the Indian Gong, a modern travelling Chariot, with imperial; a wardrobe of very fine Table and Bed Linen ; THE GRAND PAINTED WINDOW, representing Aurora, by Collins; the range of rose- wood bookcases ; fine whole length figures of ilygeia and Pomona, executed by P. Sarti; the nine celebrated casks, containing 100 gallons each, including Poor Peter Peebles, Patson Adams, and Doctor Syntax. The Furniture is trifling in quantity, although of more than ordinary pretensions as to quality. There is a capital Brew ing Apparatus*, and a little army of Plants in pots. It can only be viewed by cards, to be had of Mr. RRIOO^, Solicitor, Lincoln's- Inn Fields; Messrs. PRUBN, GRIFFITHS, and PRTREN, Solicitors, Chelten- ham ; and al MR. GEORGE ROBINS'S Offices, London.

SADLER, in an address of splendid eloquence, and of great length, brought forward a resolution declaratory of tbe opinion of the House, that it i3 expedient aud necessary to constitute a legal pro- vision for the poor of Ireland. Mr. STRICKLAND seconded the motion; which was opposed by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE- QUER; and after a debate of considerable length, 11 which every speaker acknowledged the eloquence and the, right feeling and, talent of the honourable, member who, bad brought' the subject before the House, the House divided— for Mr. Sadler's resolu- tion 52— against. it Ol- r- majgrify for, Ministers 12. HOUSE OF COMMONS— TUESDAY. ,.' The House having gone juto Committee on the 22d clause, Mr. E PEEL moved, an amendment, tft » : object of which wan to secure to the future resident freemen in boroughs by birth, servitude, and mar- riage, a permanent continuance of their ancient and valuable rights., , ... - . , The ATTORNEY GENERAL opposed the amend- ment. , - ••!,•../ '.' Sir C.- WETHEitELi. said he was curious to Snow what ground his lion, and learned friend could ad- vance agajnst this amendment. His honourable and learned friend argued clause 21 on tbe ground, of amplitude,' and. clause 32 on the ground of. con- traction, No mad could deny lhat there, was- not inconsistency in depriving freeriten of their right of voting, whatever had been said by previous speakers* The right of freemen was as oacred aji that of , any man to his freehold. fVit'll respect to the City of London, it was quite clear from chapter ft of Magna Charta that all freemen were to htive their lights, aud it would be a robbery to deprive them of such rights. No doubt. Magna Chaf-. ta took place before the institution of the House of Commons; but the law he had learned was this, that by the principle of that law every new ly acquired right was lo. bd as much protected as those whicli had existed, be- fore the passing of Magna Charta. . He, would have the privilege remain in its existing slate, although the motion of bis hiJn. friend would go to 1' cstric. t it to resident freemen. He vvas glad to find that in many cases this Reform Bill had given great dis- satisfaction— in York, Durham, Berwick, Dublin, Beverley, and other places. These places he woiila class in a schedule A, as against the disfranchising schedule A passed by this house. He hoped the hon. member ( Mr. I). W. Harvey) would vote foi4 the motion brought forward to- night," because, as he said, his constituents had not been guilty ot" bribery or corruption, and should have, therefore, then' rights preserved. He also expected the vote of the? worthy alderman ( Mr. Alderman Wood) in order to preserve Some degree of consistency. He ( Sir C » Wetherell) was told fhat the livery of London Were not much in favour of the bill, and his authority he considered to be worthy of great credence. He might have been misinformed, and he only apoke from what he considered to be excellent authority. He asked why should the right of freemen be taken away in order to let in a new class of voters in tlieil* place? They were not now to make a constitution which would last some fifty years, as bail been stated by the hon. member ( Mr. W. Harvey). The hereditary rights of freemen should not be abolished ds they were now likely to be in another country. There were two modes of doing this— first; by be- ginning with the peerage, and then coming down to the deprivation of municipal rights: and the second by beginning with the latter,' arid ascending to the former. In either case the danger would be equally great. If he looked elsewhere he could see that other parties began ill the drawirig- room and eudfcd 011 the ground floor, if a principle of spoliation were laid down, the Althorps and the Russells would no more be the noble persons they now were. He considered the principle of the clause to be Ihost nefarious; it was arbitrary in every sense; and should uot be permitted. No doubt the reformers said they did not wish to destroy the monarchy aud the constitution ; but where were their successors to stop? There was a marvellous inconsistency in the conduct of govern- ment; for they disfranchised small towns because they were small, and large ( owns because they were hirgei It was admitted that there was 110 ground for disfranchising freemen who were re- sidents, except the caprice of the government. In fact, the non- residents and residents were to be treated in the same manner. If any gentleman of family or title would get up at the other side, and tell him in reason that hereditary honours were to be preserved, why should they, lie would ask, con- fiscate the rights of humbler individuals? If such un answer could not be given, why, again lie re- peated, destroy the rights of freemen and tho power of corporations? In c| ause 22 were planted the seeds of destruction to the monarchy of the country, the hereditary peerage, and the corpora- tions throughout the country. No doubt in the French revolution tliey commenced with destroying the municipal rights; arid even in Cromwell's time these rights of corporations were stilt respected, although now they were to be upset. This clause would agitate the miildS of llie people; and he hoped iu God that they would have more sense than the riieiubcrs of the House of Commons. Mr. CUESSETT PEL'ILVM expressed liis abhorrence of the Reform Bill, on account Of its being an in- fraction of the constitution as settled by Magna Charta. Ou a division, Mr. Peel's amendment Was nega- tived by a majority of 210 to 131. Mr. TP, F. VOR then moved an ameiidtritn! with a view to continue the l ight of voting to iiau- resident freemen for the term of their lives.— On a division, the amendment was rejected by a ( inyority of 151 to 38.

The picturesque and various local Advantages connected with this Property must always ensure to it an increasing Value. The Property comprises the MANOR of NORTH- FIELD and WEOLEY, extending over 5000 Acres, with the Fines, Heriots, and Quit- Rents arising there- from ; also 537 Acres of highly- cultivated and pro- ductive LAND, a large Portion of which is Pasture and Accommodation Land, divided into sundry Farms At the same Time, will be offered for Sale, 80 Southdown Ewes ( in Lots of 5 each), 50 Fat Yearling Southdown Wethers ( in Lots of 10 eaelil, 5 capital Fat Southdown Wethers ( 3 Years old). 80 Fat Yearling Cheviot Wethers ( in Lots of 10 each): 1 Cheviot Ram, and 1 Ditto Ewe; ltll West Highland Scots Bullocks ( Part ^ Fat and Part Store), from 3 to 5 Years old, in Lots of 2 each; a few Waggon Ilorses and H The Auction to'comme) Hacks, from 4 to 6 Y'ears old. ience at Half- past Twelve to a .

OPINIONS AS TO THE REFORM BILL. f From Btacku- cod's Magazine.] The subject lias been tossed about and twisted in every possible shape— the blood and marrow of every limb of the Whig abortion has been sucked out and analyzed; all its bones have been broken, and ils inherent rottenness has been thoroughly exposed. As for the Ministers themselves, they have been entirely and hopelessly beaten, mauled, jellified, annihilated— by John Wilson Crokcr aud his co- operaflves; so much so, that wherever 1 go, in whatever company 1 mix, I can honestly say 1 never do now bear from Whig," Radical, or any other person, even a syllable in their defence. They are given up. Tlieir food is the bread of contempt, and their drink is the waters of scorn. A feeling of mingled wonder and disgust is pre- valent, even where but a few weeks ago they vveco worshipped as demigods. [ From the Monthly Magazine.] If the Bill should, by hocus poctts, work its way to the Lords, they need waste no time iu thinking how to gel rid of it. The shortest way is to apply it to the lamp ib. it burns under the chin 01' Sir George Rosens deputy, and throw tbe ashes to swell the dust that envelopes the Marquis of Londonderry in his more energetic moments. They may rely an the nation To a man, the nation ts sick of the whole affair already; sick oflhe long speeches, the tiresome gnaw'ing through tbe alphabet, the weari- someness of the topic at dinner, the stagnation of business, and the general groan of bankruptcy among the legislative householders, from ten pQUutitt lo ten shillings per annum.

DOUGLAS said it was desirable that the Noble l. ord ( Althorp) should state his intention with regard to Ihe Wine Duties before they came to be discussed nn Monday next— The CHANCELLOR of the IXTFLLQUTR said that thc disputed point on the Cape Wines would delay the passing of the bill, and he was therefore content tu forego lhat part of it, although he Was still Convinced of ifs propriety. He trusted that the duties would be equalised in 1834, as the bill had intended. LONDON— SATUR DAY. , ,;:• RrroRiti BILL. Thc House then went into Committee on thc Reform Bill. On the Chairman reading thc Twenty- third Clause, appointing Commissioners for Ihe divi- sion of counties, and fixing the boundaries of cities and boroughs, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER described . the object of the, clause, and read the following list Of Commissioners ivhemi he proposed to appoint : — The Right Hon. J. Alv rrrombie, T, ord Chief Baron of Scotland ; E. J. Littleton, Esq. Davies Gilbert, Esq. W. Courtenay, Esq H. Martin and YV. YVingfield, Masters ih Chancery ; Sir .1 W. Gordon, Bart. H. flallarn, Esq. V: Benufbtl, Esq. R N. Launcelot Bmgh Ailen, E- q H. Gawler, Esq T. Birch, Esq. W, Leake, Esq. Benjamin Annesley, Esq J. T. Chapman. Esq. It. Dawson, Esq. T. Drummoml, Esq. J E. Drmkwatfv, Esq. T. F. Ellis, Esq H Kerr, Esq. T. B. U'nnard, Esq. W. Orde, jun. Esq, J Bomilly, Esq. IT.. I. Saunders, Esq the Rev. R. Sheepshanks, W. E Tallenls, Esq H. Tancred, E- q. J. Wrottesley, Esq F. Martin, Esq. Royal Engineers, R. A. Scott, Esq. Royal Staff Corps,- and W. Wild, Esq. Sir E. SL'C. EKN contended that the power 6f flic Commissioners should be more limited, and that some rule should be laid down by parliament for their di- rection. He objected particularly to the power of calling on corporate bodies to produce their charters The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER justified the power giauted to the Commissioners as necessary to the performance of their duties, and observed that thc only Corporation documents they would require to see were the rate- books and other parish books.— Sir C. WLTHERIXL entered at great length into the subject, contending that the prerogative of the Crow n fo dissolve fhe parliament was interfered with by the bill.— A profracted disenssion followed; after which the clause as amended was agreed to. The Chairman having read the Twenty- fourth Clause, put the question, lhatafter the words " be it enacted," there be inserted " that thc Commissioners have power to incorporate with any city or borough any parish adjacent to such city or borough within the distance of one mile."— Sir G. WARRF. NDER said he was averse to all factious opposition ; but he must still persist in a proposition which he made in another stage of the bill, namely, that boroughs possessing 400 resident electors do send two members to parliament. — Colonel SlBTHORP gave notice, that' oifbringing up the report he should move a resolution to th£ effect that no member of that house, or any friend of a member, be appointed on the Commission for de- ciding on the division of counties under the present bill.— After a desultory discussion, Clause Twenty- four was agreed to.— The Chairman then reported progress. HOUSE OF COMMONS— FRIDAY. Thc House resolved itself into a Committee on the Reform bill, when the following clauses and amend- ments of clauses were proposed ahd discussed, and severally carried. The 25th Clause providrs that the Secretary of State to whom such reports ( thc reports of the parlia- mentary commissioners) should be delivered do cause copies thereof to be laid before Parliament within ten days. T he 26th Clause, from which it was pro. posed to leave ont nil Ihe Words, for the purpose of inserting such as'were necessary to give the commis- sioners power to send for persons, papers and records. Lord ALTIIORP further proposed an exception to be made in favour of charters and muniments of title. These amendments being put and agreed to, the Chairman proceeded to the 27th Clause, to which' Lord AI. THORP moved an amendment, the object of which was to place Shorcham, Cricklade, Aylesbury, and East Retford, npon the same footing as they would have been if their special eases had not been made the subject of former legislative enactment. This amendment gave rise to a long conversation, in which Sir E. B. Sugden, Sir. G. H. Vernon, Lord Althorp, and Sir Charles Wetherell took part. Sir T. FRI MANTLE proposed ns an amendment, that the clause should stand as it was originally printed in the bill, and that all persons occupying a tenement in these boroughs should retain their right of voting. After a few words from Lord John Rnssell, in opposi- tion tu this amendment, the committee divided— for the Clause 102— for the Amendment 29— Majority 73. Clause 28 is to be totally cancelled from the bill. The 29th Clatise, which provides for a registration of votes, gave rise to a lengthened disscussion, in which Colonel Wood, Sir E. B Stigden, Sir Charles Wetherell, Mr. Croker, nnd Mr. North, warmly con- tended against ils introduction, and Lord Althorp, Mr. Sergeant Wilde, nnd Mr. Littleton defended it. Clause 30 was next moved, thc object of which was to regulate the formation of lists of voters according to the land tax assessments. This clause living carried, the House resumed, the Chairman reported progress. HOUSE OF COMMONS— SATURDAY.' The House having resolved itself into a committee on the Reform Bill, the Chairman read clausc 31, empowering the Judges of Assize to name Barristers who should preside in the courts of Registration, and revise and decide on Ihe lists' of county votes; such appointments to be approved of by Ihe Lord Chan- cellor. sir C. WETHKREI. I/ contended that thc public mind had undergone a considerable change in their opinion respecting tlie bill, which had now gone through four or five editions; and like Sir John Cutler's stockings, was so covered with tbe darns ns to leave no trace of their original integrity. ( A laugh). He objected to the appointment of the Judges proposed, who wonld become political rather than judicial officers. The expetice of Ihe Courts of Registration would, liecontended, at least amount to ± 20,000 a year, without fulfilling any of the anticipations of the framers of the bill. He also complained that Barristers were to be excluded from practice in these Courts. The ATTORNEY- CENTRA!, denied that thc bill had been altered to any thing like thc extent so htl- fnnurously alluded lo by his Hon. and Learned Friend, or that any of its original principles had been departed from. He was satisfied that barristers of great learning arid talent Would accept the offices as a means of giving them'increased cousideiation in their profession. Sir E Sue BEN objected fo a veto on the appoint- ment of thc barristers being given to the Lord Chan- cellor, as he iVas of necessity a political officer, and might be influenced by political motives. Mr. J. WILLIAMS thought the clause was unex- ceptionable. The veto by the Lord Chancellor would have a beneficial tendency. Having the right of the election dccitled before tliey came to Ihe poll would simplify and shorten elections greatly, nnel con siderably diminish Ihe expence. He gave his sincere support to this clause, as well as to the whole bill. After a few words from Mr. NORTH, recommend- ing that the persons appointed should have power to call for documents and witnesses, and tlieir situation altogether be made one of higher consideration. Lord ALTHORP defended tbe clause lie thought it would be unnecessary to give the barristers tbe power of calling witnesses before them, because those claiming a right to vole would themselves supply the evidence, and those who opposed the claim would also produce their own evidence. He had no doubt fhat barristers of ability would accept the office. He was confident the veto by the Lord Chancellor would never be exercised but in the very improbable case of Ihe Judge having made an improper appointment.— After a few words from Mr. CAMPBELL, the clause, as amended, was- agreed to. The Chairman, read Clause Thirty- two.— Col. Sin- THORP objected to the proceeding, as it vvas then six o'clock. He did not doubt but the Noble Lord wished to get oil with tlie bill as fast as possible, but it was his wish to prolong the tliscussion as much as possible. The clause which regulates the proceeding before the barristers was then read, and after a few words from Sir C. WTTHIRELL, and Col. SIBTIIORP, was agreed to. The House then resumed, the Chairman reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again on Monday. — Adjourned. We regret to say that the accounts from Poland are most unsatisfactory. Dissensions prevail to a nioSI alarmiuir extent in Writ- saw, and a club, calling itself Patriotic, acting hi perfect imitation of Ihe Jacobins, lias committed dreadful atrocities. Ou the 15th antl 16th ult. these miscreants obtained a momentary possession of the town, and pro- ceeded to employ their power iu the massacre of all Hie state prisoners. Five- and- thirty of these defenceless people were despatched before the authorities were able fo put down tbe assassins. Order < vas restored ut last; aud the leaders of Ibe massacre arrested; but such deeds throw a miser- able stain on the Polish cause.

CORONATION.— This ceremony will possess the attraction of very considerable public splendour, though not on the same scale as thai of his late Ma- jesty. It has been determined that a grand military spectacle shall attend the royal procession from St. Jamcs's- palace to Westminster Abbey. Pall mall, Whitehall, Parliament- street, & c. will he lined with those magnificent troops, the Guards, including, of course, the Blues and I he Scots Greys. The ceremony in the Abbey ( see 4th pagej, it is calculated, will occupy abolit fo'ur hours, anil terminate about four o'clock, when the procession will return in sbite. The public offices arc to be illuminated. It has also been dccitled that there will be a naval promotion and a brevet rise iii the army, though we believe these will not be very extensive. Having faithfully discharged their duty to tbe country, ill exposing fully the greater iniquities, and more extravagant absurdities of '' the Bill," thc anti- revolutionist party are, we believe, now willing to othiw it to hurry to its fate, at thc rate of ten clauses d day ; so that the measure may perhaps be expected to get out of the committee for good or for evil on Wednesday, By bestowing only a very ordinary scrutiny upon the 29 or 30 remaining clauses of the bill, the Tory party might delay it in the com mittee until November. They are satisfied, however, that the country now knows anel understands the mea sure, and they discharge it of half its quarantine. This is'tlite atiswer to all the complaints " of factious Ac\ ay ''-^ Standard- THE REFORM BILL.— Referring to the clause by which tenants paying weekly to the amount of ± 10 a- year would be permitted fo veite if the Reform Bill were to pass into a law, the Manchester Chronicle says—" The really * respecfahle and intelligent' part of thc community in this and all the leading manu- facturing towns have just cause to complain of the treachery, or at least the weakness of Ministers, in submitting to so injurious a departure from tbe prin- ciple of the Bill. One of the objtcts of the Bill is to prevent bribery and corruption ; but the obnoxious clause will establish petty borough interests in all parts of the town. The clause does not require proof of the payment of rent, but only of the rates and taxes. The payment of arrears of rates will not be so elifficult a matter as the payment Of arrears of rent at thc approach of an election ; so that a landlord, if arbitrarily disposed, may command bis debtor- tenant lo comply with his political designs in any way lie shall dictate. The clause will, in our opinion, open the sluices of bribery and corruption to an extent never before experienced in this country. In lieu of the evil of patron boroughs — which have too long existed— a new feudal reign will spring up among us, and petty lordlings will he found in every corner of our large manufacturing towns exercising their tyrannic influence over the numerous unfortunate creatures who, by irregularity and dissipation, may be thrown into their drag- net.— Again, is it really fair, or consistent with the ostensible objects of the Bill, to confide the elections of members in large towns to a pure democracy ? We bave advocated the Reform Bill, bccause we considered that its general design was to extend fhe right 0f voting to all classes of his Majesty's subjects whose property and character legitimately entitle them to a share in the representation. But, here this honest principle is grossly violated ; real respectability and intelligence, founded on industry, wealth, and valuable characfe are disregarded; and the ministerial fondness for ' numbers' has destroyed the political balance of classes which the new elective franchise ought in all towns, particularly the leading ones, to have main- tained. With swell a constituency as the majority of the Manchester one will be it may be readily con- jectured w hat description of representatives the town will lie blessed with. It is obvious that they must either debase themselves by submitting to fhe foulest acts of bribery or corruption, or ignominiously suc- cumb to the worst of all tyrannies— mob government and mob law." V ' r Additional resolutions, adopted hy the Committee since our last publication, are advertised in a subse- quent column.— ll is recommended that all employ- ment be'suspended on this solemn occasion. The following will be the order" of the proression to St. Chad's Church, in this town, tomorrow :— Y'eomanry Band. The Incorporated Companies of the Town, with their F'lags, Ensigns, Music, & c. wilt assemble al Ten o'Clock in the morning in their usual order: The first Company in Quarry Place, and the other Companies in lie Walk leading to tho Boat House, and along the Lower Walk, Thc Children to form in the Bottom and other Walks of the Quarry with their Teachers, aud follow the Corporation four- a- bfeast. Militia Band. Recruiting Parties and Pensioners. The Militia Staff. The Clergy and Ministers will assemble in their Gowns and Cassocks at lite Town Hall precisely at Ten o'Clock in the Morning, as will also The Mayor and Corporation, And such Gentlemen as may be desirous of attending. The Procession will move from Quarry Place athrl- past ten, and proceed along the Walls— up the Wyle Cop— along High Street to the Town Hall ( where the Children will halt to allow the Mayor, Corporation, Clergy, and Gentlemen, to form iuto the line of pro- cession), and proceed via Mardol Head— Shoplatch— St. John's Hill to St. Chad's Church. Coronation Festivities al Oswestry, On the auspicious occasion of the Celebration of their Majesties' Coronation, the Mayor and Corpora- tion and Inhabitants of Oswestry intend to demon- strate, in every possible manner, the loyally for which their ancient borough has been so deservedly celebrated. A dinner of gooif roast beef and plum pudding will be provided for the children of fbe National Schools of both sexes belonging to tbe town, anel those of the branch schools of the neighbourhood. The children of the National Schools, the officers, non- commissioned officers', and privates of fhe Os- westry Squadron of North Salopian Yeomanry, the corps of Royal Artillery under the command of Capt Thorndyke, and the Trades of the town, nre invited to attend the Procession of the Mayor and Corporation to Church. There will he a dinner at the Wynnstay. Arms, for the members of the Corporation, the Norlh Shropshire Y'eomanry, the Rojal Artillery, and the Gentlemen and inhabitants of the town anel neighbourhood; Thomas Lovett, Esq. Mayor, in the chair, assisted by the Hon. Thomas Kenyon, High Steward. i Joi R. ' Ihere will also be a Ball in the evening, tinder the patronage nf Lady Avonmore and Miss Parker. A magnificent Silk Balloon will be sent offfromthe Castle Hill, and a splendid display of Fireworks at a distance from the town, will close the diversions, of the evening. The Annual Sale at Hardwick, the seat of the Right Hon. Lord Hill, by Mr. Smifh, on Monday last, was numerously and respectably attended.— A few pens of prime Southdown Sheep fetched 7d. per lb.— The Fat Cattle and Store Sheep also fetched high prices. tin Friday afternoon last, a storm of thunder and lightning, accompanied by violent rain and hail, passed along the south- western vicinity of this town. — The thunder- claps were unusually loud ; and at Newton, near Hanwood, one of two horses at work in a team belonging to Mr. Davies, of that place, was killed by the lightning, the other horse being much injured, the shafts of tbe waggon broke ( one of them being forced over an adjoining hedge), and the boy in charge of the team stunned ; passing by two oak irces hi its line, the electric fluid struck three ash trees, the bark of which it forced off in stripes.— One of the accompanying claps of thunder is believed to have been more forcible than any that has been heard in this vicinity for a long period. DEAFNESS.— Those who are afflicted with this in- firmity— probably the most distressing that " fleSh is heir to," with the single exception of blindness— have now an opportunity of obtaining relief, which is not an every- day occurrence;—- Mrs. Gardner ( widow of the celebrated Aurist of that name, who practised the cure of diseases of the ear with such success in Shrewsbury five years aso) having visited Shrewsbury, with the in- tention of passing a few weeks here, for the purpose of affording her aid to sufferers from these disorders. The number of individuals who have received benefit from ti e exercise of this lady's skill since her arrival from Edinburgh and Glasgow is the best proof of the efficacy of her system, and renders unnecessary any recommendation of ours. We shall therefore merely take occasion to say, that as the present opportunity can only exist for a short time, it will be requisite for those who intend to avail themselves of- it " to lake time by the forelock," and apply to her immediately in order to escape disappointment.— See Advertisement.

Market Street, Shrewsbury, September! Ih, 1831. LLANVORDA BOW- MEETING. On Friday last, this beautiful place was the acetic of the most pleasing and festive diversion. Prepara- tions had been made upon an extensive scale of hos- pitality, by the Viscount and Viscountess Avonmore, and the day proving particularly fine and suitable for the occasion, the attendance was numerous as had been anticipated. Amongst the company in the house were— Viscount Dungarvon, Mr. and Mrs. Nugent, Miss I. ewis, & c ; and at the meeting were • Miss Kenrick ( the Lady Patroness), Hon. Captain Bridgeman, R. N. Sir W. and Lady Clarke, Sir Baldwin lj- ighlon, Rev. Sir Edward Kynaston, 15. A. Slaney, Esq. M. P. and all tbe neighbouring families; and amongst the families from a distance, were those of Oleley Park, the Lvlh, Pelton, Sundorne Castle, Trevallyn, Rhaggat, & c. and the number of persons w ho were seated in the tent at dinner were 176. The Society's Prize of the day was won by Miss Walker, and Miss Fanny Brooke retained tbe Society's Medal. After dinner, the usual toasts having been given, two songs, adapted to the occasion, were sung by amateurs, anel were received with much approbation and ap- plause : subsequently, in addition to the shooting at the hutts, three or four quadrilles were formed, in- cluding one juvenile party, which increased the mirth, and afforded a high treat to an immense crowd of spectators from tbe town of Oswestry, and the neigh- bourhood , till thc evening closed, when the party separated, highly delighted wiih t he great attention ahd hospitality of the noble host and hostess. MAIL FROM BRISTOL TO LIVERPOOL. [ FROM THE BRISTOL JOURNAL] We have sincere pleasure in communicating the following letter of Sir Francis Freeling, announcing the intended adoption, by His Grace tbe Postmaster- General, of a proposition made by thc Chamber of Commerce, for the establishment of a Mail direct between this city and Liverpool, by the route of Chepstow, Monmouth, Hereford, Ludlow, Shrews- bury, and Chester; in favour of which, petitions were, at the instance of the Chamber, procured from the Merchants and Traders in those several places. It is, so far as we can learn, intended lhat the Mail should leave this city at two o'clock in the day, and arrive at Liverpool at ten tbe next morning, and should leave Liverpool at oue or half past one, so as to arrive here in time for the Barnstaple and Plymouth Mail, which leaves at half past nine in the morning. By this ar- rangement the Passages would be crossed in the day- time throughout the year. The benefit arising from this increased facility of communication will render the new establishment one of the greatest improve- ments that has been experienced for a considerable period ; it opens a comparatively new line of road, places ( he several towns in close connection with each other, and brings Liverpool, within a distance accessi- ble with almost equal ease to London. At present the route is by way of Birmingham, the journey oc- cupying twenty- four hours and precluding a com- munication by the return Mail ; by the new arrange- ment and the saving of four hours of the day, time is afforded for Ibe delivery and answer of letters, and for a person's return, w here dispatch of business is an object. The experiment, as it is called, will, we are satisfied, be productive of a very satisfactory resolt in the permanent establishment of the Mail throughout the whole line, with possibly branch communications, so soon as its value has been felt in the connected dis- tricts. This is another instance of the advantages which flow from the establishment of a commercial associ- ation properly regulated ; and we cannot refrain from contrasting this Body with those which have recently sprung up in several parts of the country, and have been formed for political purposes, where the real and substantial improvement of tbe country is unregarded and abandoned, as of secondary consideration to the theoretical and wild schemes of a few ambitious ill- judging individuals. " General Post Office, th August, 1831. " SIR,— Having brought under consideration the Memorial from the Board of Directors of the Chamber of Commerce of Bristol, and from the Bankers, Mer- chants, and other Inhabitants of Liverpool, transmitted ill your Letter of the 2d May list, I have the satisfac- tion to acquaint you that His Grace the Postmaster- General has consented to try the experiment of a Mail Coach between those towns, through C. hepstowr, Here- ford, and Monmouth, and I flatter myself that it may commence about the middle of next month.

We regret to learn there is too much reason to apprehend that Colonel Williams, formerly of the North Worcester Loral Militia, and brother of the Rev. G. Williams, Rector of Martin Hussingtree, in this county, was among the persons who perished by the wreck of the Rothsay Castle steam boat, a body having been washed ashore, which has been identified almost to a certainty to be that of Colonel Williams. — Worcester Herald.

John & Hugh Griffith, brothers of Mr. Owen Griffith, of Tryfan, near Carnarvon. It appears that these two gentlemen had been for some time residing at Quebec, but in the summer months they took up their abode at a small Cottage, a few miles in tbe country, where they amused themselves with fishing, & c. The elder Mr. Griffith, bring a man of an enterprising and specu- lative character, had acquired considerable property ill the Canadas. On the 7th of July last, the two brothers left Quebec for the country, acccompanied by their two servants, who were Irishmen, but not before depositing with a neighbour a box containing a large sum of money, with strict injunctions not to deliver it to any other person if called for.— After a few'days, the two servants returned to Quebec, nnd demanded the box, but upon its being refused to them, they immediately left the house, and have not since been heard of. This created a suspicion of fraud, and Messrs. Griffith were sought for in tbe cottage, and, shocking to relate, their bodies were found horribly mutilated— thc one having been shot through tbe bead, and the other having his head nearly severed from the body with a hatchet.

We have a tolerable trade this morning in fine wheat, and this article of grain fully supports the prices of this day week; but the" transactions in inferior have been on a very limited scale. Thc price of flour is not yet estab- lished at 65s. per sack, nor does it appear likely to be. We have considerable arrivals of new barley, which is quoted at from 43s. to 45s. per quarter. A few parcels of tares are shown from Kent and Hampshire. The former are inferior in quality, the latter tolerably good. They are quoted from Cs. to 10s. per bushel. The oat trade is very heavy, the supply ben- g so extensive, aind this grain may be quoted at a reduction of full Is per quarter from last Monday's price. In beans and peas there is no alteration. In no other article of grain has anything occurred worth noticing. Current Price of Grain per Qr. as tinder .— Wheat " 4s. Od. to 78s. nd. Harley 30s. Od. to 42s. Od, Malt 00s. Oil. to ( 10s.

As early Application is necessary to mature each Plan and Arrangement, it is hoped that those Gentle- men who feel desirous to patronise this Establishment would lose no Time in obtaining all Particulars relative to its Formation, which may be had by apr' ing to J.

TICKLER.— L. ord Prudhoe and Major Felix being nt Cairo last autumn, on their return from Abyssinia, where they picked up much of that information which has iiecn worked up so well by Captain Bemtl Head in his I. ifc of Bruce, fonnd the town in a state of extraordinary excitement, in consequence of the recent arrival in those parts of a celebrated Magician fre in the centre of Africa, somewhere in the vicinity of the Mountains of the Moon. It was universally said, and generally believed, that this character pos- sessed and exercised the power of shewing to any visiter who chose tu comply with his terms, any per- son, dead nr living, whom tfie said visiter pleased to name. The English travellers, after abundant' en- quiries and some scruples, repaired to his residence, paid iheir fees, and were admitted to his Sanctum.

TICKLER.— Laugh as you please— but let me tell my story. On hearing their errand, he arose and kindled some spices on a sort of small altar in the middle of the room. He then walked round and round tlic altar fnr half- an hour or so, muttering words to tliem unintelligible ; and having at length drawn three lines of chnik about the altar, and placed himself upright beside the flame, desired them go seek a Seer, and he was ready to gratify them in a!

TICKLER.— Pooh! pooh!— Don't jeer. Hell yon lie bid them go into the streets of Cairo, and fetch up any child they fancied, under ten years of age. They did so-, and after walking for about half an hour, selected an Arab . liny not apparently above eight, whom they found playing at marbles. NORTH.— What was lie ? TICKLER.— I can't tell you— nor could'they— but he was a child, and tliev bribed him wilh a few half- pence, and took him with them lo the studio of the African P. oger Bacon.

Allah bismilta! What do you see? Itlalla Rcsoul Allah! What do yon see?" All the while the smoke curled up faster and faster NORTH.— Of course— of course. TICKLER.— Presently the lad said : " Bismillah .' — a horseman — I sec two horsemen— I see three— I sec four— five— six— 1 see seven horsemen, and the seventh is a Suftan." " Has he n flag r" cries the Magician.—" tie lias three," answered the boy.— " ' Tis well." says the other, " now halt!" and with that he laid his stick right across the tire, and, stand- ing up, addressed the travellers in these words:— " Name your name— he it of those that arc upon tlie earth, or of those that arc beneath it-, he it Frank, Moor, Turk, or Indian, prince or beggar, living and breathing, or resolved into the dust of Adam 3" 00 years ago— speak, and this boy shall behold and de- scribe limit" NORTH.— Very good— now be so good as lo bring on Lord Prwdhoe.

TICKLER.— The other asked for Travels Arouct de Voltaire, and the hoy immediately described a lean, old, yellow faced Frank, wilh a huge brown wig, a nutmeg- grater profile, spindle shanks, buckled shoes, and a gold suuff box ! NORTH.— My dear Tickler, don't yon see that any print- hook must have made this scoundrel familiar to such pliizzes as these ? TICKLER.— Listen. Lord PrudUoe now named Archdeacon Wrangham, and the Arab boy made answer, and said, " I perceive a grey. haired Frank, with a black silk petticoat, walking in a garden, with a little book in his hand. He is ri- ading on Ihe bonk —' his vya are bright and gleaming— his teeth arc white— iic is the happiest looking Frank I ever be held." NORTH — Go on. TICKI.

The Magician signed, and the boy again answered, " i see a red- haired Frank, with a short led jacket, and Your Gamester ( whether iu Ihe numerous Sal6;> s Paris, or the various Hells al St. James's) with a at fortune or absolute beggary dependant on a single turn of chance, developes uoiliiug remarkable in his features. There is a fixed, spasmodic, and des- perate contraction of the features— teeth firmly set — eyes like livid fire which bespeak that " Life is on ihe cast,"— and when the groom- porter's voice annihilates the last spark of hope— the trisyllabic exclamation of despair is all you observe beyond a bitter smile as the floodgates of remorse overwhelm his soul, and he rapidly remembers that himself alone is not the only person he has irretrievably ruined ; anil wilh a shudder as he rushes away you antcipale him a self- murderer— the pistol or the Seine— hydrocyanic acid or the Serpentine. Less sombre and more changeable are the re- flections in a Court of Law, Take we for instance. Blackberry, Plaintiff, aud some stout yeoman, wilh a face like Pliaroah's chief- butler, for the Defend- ant. Lo ! the learned Serjeant harangues Ihe Court for the Plaintiff— with what adroitness he elicits and perverts the meaning of the witnesses— how he builds up a theory of his own fashion out of facts of an opposite nature— how he expresses his annoy- ance at the interruption in » " nie nicely rounded peroration when some loud voice exclaims, " Mr. Snooks, Attorney at Lav,— Mr. Homo, before the Grand Jury,"— how lie shapes his leading questions so as not to have the imputation of leading questions — but law is a paradox— a luccs a non lucendo ! All this lime see how Blackberry smiles— how his features radiate at each forcible thrust of the worthy Serjeant— what a lurking smile is in ( lie corner of his eyes— aud how rapidly the clouds chase each other across the face of the stout yeoman. Let us reverse the scene. The forensic defender srets up and knocks all the arguments of the learned Serjeant about his ears— puts his logical deduce, incuts hors de combat— causes the scale to kick the beam, and makes the rubicund face of the Defendant smile unutterable tilings, whilst the Plaiiititl's visage assumes " a most vinegar aspect." But the learned Judge, invested in his robes, like some senator of ancient Rome in his toga-— the Jupiter Tonuns whose directions are law— whose voice is big with fate, now sums up— what hopes! what fears ? what momentary sensations chase each other rapidly across the countenances of the liti- gants, ns he now dwells on a point favourable to the Plaintiff— now leans to a f. iet in favour of the Defendant. Their eyes look inijiloringly towards their legal chiefs, and catch a brighter gleam or a darker shadow by reflection. Veri ly it is Lavater epitomized !! And now for the eliinax. The Jury closely de- liberate— their heads concatenate— big drops of anxiety gather ou ttie brows of tlie interested parties— and they observe w ith avidity every mo. tiou of the twelve grood men and true, as they heave to and fro in weighty decision. Now awful silence reigns— the pulse of the parlies cease iti breathless anxiety as the foreman's voice, bringing unction to the soul of the one and desolation and pale dismay to the other, responds—" Verdict fur Defendant." The unsuccessful party goeth home stealthily, in the shadows- of eve, in a circumbendibus, looking suspiciously about— shunning the greetings of any friend whose inquiries would be any tiling but kind. The oilier goes forth " like a giant refreshed with wine,"— grasping tbe hand of all enquirers he reprc- sseth any indecorous display of triumph over his adversary, while his very elevation of features engender gladness. He draweth towards home and reflects on the beautiful verse, " Tis sweet to hear the honest watch- Jog's bark. Bay deep mouth'd weleotnc as we draw near home; Tis sweet to know there is an eye will mark Our coming, sttd look brighter when we come." There is a joy in his heart and a gladness in his eye us he walks into liis domestic circle, and meets assembled friends whose anxious cares removed make the welkin ring with one universal shout. And in the sunshine of the soul, Forgets his troubles past. The peers and peeresses, in their robes of estate, and others, summoned by bis Majesty's command to witness the ceremony of the coronation, will be conducted to the places assigned to tiiem in West- minster Abbey, previously lo the arrival of their Majesties.

The King and Queen will pass to their several chairs of state near the altar, and the nobility, & c. forming the procession will take their places; an' anthem will then he sung, after Which the recognition of his Majesty will he declared by the Archbishop of Canterbury, and their Majesties will each make an offering " fan altar- cloth of gold. The Litany will then he read by the Bishops of Lichfield and Coventry and Lincoln, the Communion Service bv the Bishops of Llandaff and Bristol; ami the sermon w ill be preached by the Bishop of London. TIIF. OATH. The sermon being concluded, the Archbishop of Canterbury, advancing to tbe King, will administer the coronation oath. The King will arise from his chair of state, and, attended by his supporters and the Deputy Lord Great Chamberlain, will go, un- covered, to the altar, where, kneeling upon the cushion, laid on the steps, and placing his hand on the holy gospels, his Majesty will take the oath, and add1 thereto his royal sign manual, the Lord Cham- berlain of the Household holding a silver sfandish for that purpose, delivered to liini by an officer of the Jewel Oflice. A hymn w ill then be sung, after which the Arch- bishop of Canterbury will perform the ceremony of anointing hi* Majesty, and pronounce the benediction. The investiture of His Majesty with the supcrtunica, the spurs, the sword, the mantle, the orb, the ring', and the sceptres, will next take place. THE CROWNING. The Archbishop, standing before the altar, and having St. Edward's crown before hint, Will take the same into his hands, and consecrate and bless it with the prayer, " O God, who crownest thy faithful ser- vants with mercy," Then the archbishop, assisted by other bishops,- will come from the altar, the Dean of Westminster carrying the crown, and the Arch- bishop will take and place it on his- Majesty's head; While the people, with loud and repeated shouts, will cry " God save the King," & c. tbe trumpets sound- ing, the drums beating, and tbe Tower and Park guns firing- by signal. Tbe acclamation Ceasing, the Archbishop will pronounce the exhortation—" Be strong and of a good courage," & e. The choirs will then sing the following anthem—" The King shall rejoice in thy strength," & c. 4s soon as the King is crowned, the peers will put on their coronets; the bishops their caps; and the Kings of Arms their crowns. The Holy liible will ( hen lie presented fo His Majesty, who will re- deliver it to the Archbishop, and the latter will pronounce a benediction.

OOM VOTERS; Arms; Anns. of Armagh. fi B £ ii A correspondent of an evening paper says—" Mr Stanley entertained Ihe House of Commons on Tuesday night by an exfract from a French book of travels'through England, written by M. Duvergne D'Aauranne, in which a very comic dialogue is introduced between a Westmoreland freeholder, at the election of 1S2G, mid Che returning: officer. The freeholder in this story says lie votes for Lord Lonsdale; that Lord Lonsdale pays him the rent of his freehold, which he never saw ; nnd that he is Lord Lonsdale's footman: No doubt the French, man believed this story, but 1 submit that it is uot very probable lhat Lord Lonsdale's footman, or indeed any yellow voter in Westmoreland, should not have know n that his vote was lo be for Lord Lowther. " At the election there was much wit wasted by Mr. Brougham on mmhroom voters, as he called tliem ; but even he only charged a Colonel Bolion with having created thirty- eight such votes out of his property, from a desire lo support the West Indian interest, to which the Colonel was attached ; uud never urged Ihe practice against the Lonsdale family. What influence the 38 votes could have had upon the election will be seen by the final return :— Lord Lowther.. ,1025 Colonel Lowther 1S51 Mr. Brougham 1353 " In fuel, Ihe system of manufacturing mushroom votes was introduced into Ihe county by Mr. Brougham's patron. Lord Thauet: and when Mr. B. was taunted with Ihe practice he merely denied that he was personally concerned in it, but said that he sincerely wished that such a manufactory had been going on. This was candid, at all events, nnd somewhat similar lo Mr. Stanley's defence of the creation of the Coldblow- lane voters,• ' by the im- mortal name of G^ altan.' " But, sir, Mr. Brougham brought to the election some eoaelit'iils of his brother Edinburgh advocates, men who had never seen Westmoreland in their lives, to vote on Ihe mushroom tenures of Lord Thauet. Among these was the celebrated Mr. Jeffrey, who, how ever, declined exercising liis well earned franchise, from a judicious fear of being sent before the assessor, as the Low tlier agents threatened, if he tendered his vote. The learned gentleman since that time Iras become less squeam- ish ill election matters. If I mistake not, this great Edinburgh reviewer brought the little French litterateur in his train, and M. Duvergne's ob- servations on the election, including sneli agreeable stories ne that selected by Mr. Stanley, were derived from the sqnib writers of Mr. Brougham's committee. The Frenchman knew nothing of English, and wrote RII that account the more dogmatically, accoiding to Hie custom of his coun- try." .

From' The World of Fashion,' a Monthly Magazine HATS AND BONNETS— The materials continue the same, but the shapes have altered a little. Among the new capotes are some composed of azure blue moire, and trimmed with feathers to correspond ; the feathers are very short, they are arranged in a bouquet, and attached on one side by a round rosette of gauze ribbon, also to correspond. Some others are made of white or azure blue taffetas, with fluted brims; they are trimmed with feathers in the manner above described. Some of the capotes, composed of moire, are trimmed with an or. nament something ill the form of a sun; it is formed of sharp pointed ends of ribbons, placed one upon auother, and diminishing in length as they approach the centre. We see also several capoles, composed of white gros d'lite, and lined with rose- coloured crape; a cabbage rose, formed of cut ribbon, is placed near tlie top of the crown; the ribbon which forms the brides descends on each side from the base of this ornament Whatever is the material of the capote, tbe bavole. t must always be of the same colour. The knots are generally placed very near the ear, few being put quite behind. The crow ns of the fiats are a little higher, and no longer placed so much on one side; the brims remain the same shape. We do not observe so many trimmed with curtaiii veils of blond lace. Feathers are most in favour for trimming hats, but we still see a few decorated with flower?; it must be a single flower Only, as a rose, poppy, or iris. OUT- DOOR COSTUME.— White muslin dresses arc coming into favour iti carriage costume, though not so generally adopted as palmyricnncs or fancy silks. The only change in the form of dresses consists in the making of the sleeves; they are now made of the usual extravagant width at top, but are demi large from the elbow to the wrist. Canezons are as much the rage as ever. MAKE AND MATERIALS OF MORNING DRESS. — Silks are, for the moment, laid aside; and though printed muslins continue in favour, they are not so generally adopted as white jacconot. The most fashionable printed muslins are those with hanneton grounds, covered with detached bouquets of roses, or else ash- grey grounds with bouquets of different flowers. If the dress is of coloured mUslin, the trimming of the morning cap, and the ribbon fichu, which is still very generally adopted in morning dress, must correspond with the colours of the dishabille. There is litlle variety in the sleeves this summer; wc merely observe, that the tight part of it advances higher up the arm than usual, by which means the shoulder part falls as if it were plaited or gathered double round the shoulder. MAKE ANB MATERIALS OT IIALF- DRESS Cltaly, palmyriennes, and a variety of fancy silks arc in favour. Dresses continue to be made half high, and fnr the most part with corsagcs of crossed drapery. No trimming, whatever, round the border, if the dress is of a figured material; but if it is of plain silk or chaly, it is sometimes enibn ilered in colour. HEAD- ERESSES IN HALF DRESS. Crape and rice- straw hats are considered most elegant in half- dress, they are trimmed for the most part with tea- fliers ; but we see also some decorated with flowers, which are placed in different directions; and others ribbon ornaments, intermingled with blond lace.

ON REVOLUTIONS.— Never yet was any ancient government overthrown from within, otherwise than through the exertions of persons who, upon all ra- tional principles of action, should have been among the steadiest of its upholders. A party of the Ro- man nobility enabled the lower ordets to weaken and degrade the upper, until, after a brief interval of an archy, all orders were happy to take refuge from each other's violence iu a despotism. Let Scgur tell how- it was in France— let him explain the delusion under which so many of the glittering grand seig- neurs of his day walked merrily to their doom— the conceit which prevented them from perceiving that they were in a false position when they at once echoed the " liberalism" of their enemies, and hoped to retain, nay, to improve, the luxurious eminence to which they had been born. " Gracchi ante Syllam;" — there were Mirabeaus before there were Dantons— and of al! the French nobility, can we name more than one— if indeed one— lhat ultimately profited by the Revolution, to which so many hundreds of them contributed— and which, had they understood their interests, and acted as a body, could never have been. [ From Eraser's MagazineJ Although we have had enough, in late years, of canting and unmeaning phrases, such as " the march of intellect," " liberal opinions," " the march of mind," and what not— we yet do nof remember, for a score of summers at least, to have been so entirely overdosed, so absolutely nauseated, as we have been for the last six weeks, by that unmeaning set of words, everlastingly repealed,— th: principle of the bill." Tins poor, over- worked, and unlucky phrase, guiltless in rtself of auy distinct meaning, has really been made by our present " talented," and " enlightened" ministers, the substitute for all argument, and the answer to every objection, ill all their late dilemmas and extremities. If asked for what imaginable rcafion tbey could gravely propose to half disfranchise a large county town like Guildford, having 500t) inhabitants actually living in the very streets of the place,— the answer was " The principle of the till demands it." If it was then asked, how an insignificant place like Calne, not possessing half the natural claim to representation sustained by Guildford or Dor- chester, came to retain both it's members,— the same reply was made; for, somehow or other, * the principle of llie bill" prescribed that Cubic should have two representatives, and Guildford only one. Then, Catne being saved by bringing hi not only the borough but the parish, and not only the parish but " the liberty of Bowood," it became a very natural question why Clitheroe, situated in a parish of 80,000 inhabitants, might not retain two mem- bers as well as Calne. But, somehow or other, " the principle of the bill" served to negative this also, and Calne kept ils futr members, in virtue of its parish, while Clitheroe, whose parish would have peopled twenty Calnes, was' reduced to one. fn fact, tliere was no job,- no inconsistency, no contrivance, that would not bear explanation, for which this most elastic and convenient phrase was not made the pretence. And its very strength and usefulness lay here,— that as no one could under- stand or define the actual meaning of these wonder- ful five words, so no one could possibly say, in any case, whether Ihe plea Was or Was not valid and Sufficient'. The most desperate efforts were re- peatedly niade, by those opposed to the bill, to get some tangible definition of this phrase, but always in vain. Meanwhile, in every successive debate, these mystic five words Were constantly swung to and fro, forming, equally Well, an argument pro or con, on any and on every side of the question. In truth, the one great fault of the whole plan is just its utter want of any intelligible principle. It is a bill of disfranchisement and of enfranchisement, and yet it lays no ground, nor can auy consistent ground be stated, either for what it takes awav or what it gives. As to disfranchisement, upon what principle does it proceed ? Are all noininafion- iioioughs, as such, utterly extinguished ? fs lhat the plan aud object of its schedules? No, clearly not; for a whole bevy of boroughs, such as Calne, Tavistock, Malton, & c. which have always been and always must be, uOmination- borouglis, are sedulously preserved. They are not only not placed iu the disfranchising schedules, but, when alluded to, they are vigorously defended. The putting an c- nd to nolninatiou- boroughs, then, is no part of the principle of the bill. It does not put nn end to them ;'• it even creates new ones in places where elections have heretofore been free, such as Lichfield1, Grimsby, Newcaslle- under- Lyue, & c. But are all " inconsiderable" places disfranchised, then ? Is that ( lie object, is that the mode of operation, of these famous schedules ? No, not at all. More inconsiderable places than MahnegbUry,- aud Wilton, and Okelvampton, and Aldborough, can hardly be found, and yet all these boroughs re- main ; while Downton and St. Germains, each of larger population, are entirely disfranchised.- Even this rule, then, of disfranchising all " inconsider. able" places, which of itself would be vague enough— even this rule is not adhered fo. Then, to turn to the enfranchising clauses,, can any man living tell us upon what principle the lists of the new boroughs have been formed ? It is not the admission of every great town to a distinct share in the representation— that would have made the House of Commons far too numerous-. How-, then, has the selection been made? Where has " the line been drawn ?" Can any one fell na how this important point lias been arranged ? But no such rule, nor any ofher rule that we can possibly comprehend, has been adopted iu this case. Clearly, any town having less than 25,000 inhabit- ants can have no positive right to ask or expect a separate representative, since that is the proportion of the English members lo the population of the kingdom. But what do we find in schedules C and I). ? No fewer than tu- enty- six members are allotted in those schedules to places which fall far below this number. And most strange are the choices made, and the contrivances resorted lo, iu order to swell those schedules to their preseut ridiculous length. Gateshead is a suburb of New- castle, which already possesses its two repre- sentatives; it has a population of 11,707 inhabit- ants— not half the number which it ought to have to entitle it lo any, even Ihe least claim ( as of mere abstract right) to direct representation. Common sense, Ihen, had it been listened to, would have dictated uniting Gateshead with Newcastle ; but Gateshead, being under Lord Lambtou's protection, receives a distinct representative ! And yet Port- sea, with 38,379 inhabitants, gets no separate re- presentative, but is united lo its neighbour, Ports- mouth, to which it stands iu the very same connexion as Gateshead stands to Newcastle, lu like manner, Chatham, with its 15,268 inhabitants, is thrown into Rochester; and Sculcoates, with above 10,000, is united to Hull. Can any mortal man, then, define what " principle" of enfranchisement is pro- ceeded upon, when he looks at these entirely similar cases, and finds them so dissimilarly treated. And can any thing surpass the absurd ty of specially selecting such places as Brighton and Cheltenham for direct representation? Why, the entire population of neither of them, visiters included, amounted in 1821 to the requisite number of 25,000 But can any one possibly tell how many, out of Cheltenham's 1^, 306 persons were really inhabitants of Ihe place ? And as to the visiters, most of whom have votes elsewhere, what can Ihey have to do wilh the question ? Indeed, so desperately set are these people upon making as much as possible of town representation, that, in'tbe lack of towns enough for their purpose, they will tie up two or three together, to make one new borough. Deplford and Woolwich arc four miles apart; neither of them have the slightest claim to direct representation ; yel these two towns are made iuto a bundle with Greenwich, and all together are to return two members. By this system, the town population will have after making every allowance for the Calnes nnd Mallons which still remain, a decided majority in the House of Commons. This they can have no right to possess; four millions of the people can have no right to outvote eight millions; twelve millions of rental can have 110 right to outweigh thirty millions : and yet, upon every great question between land and trade— and there are many such constantly pending— the few will constantly over- rule the many; and that class which is a minority in tbe country will be a majority iu the House of Commons. Such is " the principle of Ihe bill," or, rather, such is its utter disregard of principle. Indeed, what can be said of a scheme into which a quarter of a million of additional voters can be suddenly thrown, as was the case by the Marquis Cliandos's amendment ? And yet, as we are told no essential difference is made, no " principle of the bill" violated. Bui, in truth, the public nre now beginning to understand pretty generally that, as long as the Whigs can contrive lo destroy the boroughs of their adversaries, and to keep their own, they care little enough about any other point. THIRLESTAINE HOUSE.— The leading feature of our fashionable and elegant town is at length con- signed to the uncertain fate of the hammer. Tbe trustees have now arrived at a determination to sell it, be the sacrifice what it may. The aid of Mr. George Robins is necessarily called into active exertion ; he has been sojourning at the Plough the last two or three days.

My steps have been arrested by beautiful spots— by savage spots— by great and luxurious cities ; a week, a month, I could spend in many — st year . irt some, and spend it happily ; but not life, not all my davs. This may be prejudice; I believe it is; hut it is the only prejudice I have no wish to part with. 1 know of no pleasure that will compare with going abroad, except one— returning home. I pity English colonists wherever I find them, whether at Tours, or Pan, or Lausanne, or Brussels, or Nice, or Florence. They all talk of the delightful climate, and delicious wines, and cheap living, and excellent society ; and yet, I believe, there may be but two nr one among them whose words come from the heart— but two or one among them all, who if they dared to appear poor,- would not turn iheir backs upon the climate, and wines, and society of foreign lands, anil seek the shores of England. Travelling is a charming recreation ; but, after all, England to Kn Englishman— is the only country to live in— Derwent Conway's Tour in Switzerland, <$- c. Con- stable's Miscellany, No. 67. DEATHS BY FIGHTING.— On Monday last, two men, named Richard DoJ, and James Cox, both shoemakers, fought a pitched baltle on the Isle of Dogs. They were carried from the grhund insensible, and died soon after. Warrants are issued forthe ap- prehension of the seconds and stake- hblder. On Friday one of Ihe rrtost, determined contests for the othce of vestry clerk for St. Geolge's parish,- Southwark, was brought to a close, after three days' hard fighting, in favOiir of Mr Fitch. The numliers stood thus— Fitch, 959; Arrow- smith, 957. The taxes of upwaMs of 300 householders were paid by the respective candidates to ensure their votes. One, two, and three pounds was a common price for a1 vole; hut, as the closing hour approached, five, anii in some instances ten aud twelve pounds were opeiYly given to secure a single vote. The expense incurred by the two candidates is about £ 12,000.— The emolu- ments of the office are about £ 500 a- year — Observer. THE IRON TRADE.— Meetings of the Ironmasters have been held in the principal districts, and resolu- tions unanimously adopted for effecting a reduction to tbe extent of about one- fourth of the quantity of iron made, and deputations met on the 10th ult. at Gloucester, to arrange as to the most efficient mode of carrying these resolutions into operation. By this measure, tiie quantity will be diminshed about 3,000 tons per w eek ; and as it is in contemplation to con. lintie the limited make for a year, there will thus be 156,000 tons of iron less produced ' luring the next twelve months. The iron tratio in Scotland has participated in the general depression, so far ax obtainable price has not remunerated the expense of manufacture and the large amount of capital invested. NEW AND DESTRUCTIVE ENGINE OF WAR.— We have this week been favoured with the sight of some experiments made with a newly invented pistol, for vliich a patent has been taken out. This import- ant invention, which appears destined to produce a new era in modern warfare, is decidedly the most de. structive weapon, in all its forms, that lias ever been offered to the consideration1 of any government. Its extreme simplicity, the facility with which it can he cleaned, its prodigious and varied powers, render it peculiarly applicable to every purpose of naval and military warfare to which fire- arms can be applied. 1st, A pistol, either for cavalry, for the defence of breaches, or for boarding, which can be loaded and fired ten times' i » one minute, projecting at each dis- charge 12 missiles irt one horizontal line, diverging laterally from 12 to 18 feet, and within an elevation of 6 feet, at the distance of 30 or 40 yards. Each man discharging 120 missiles per minute, 100 men in ten minntes are enabled to discharge 120,000 missiles, each equal iff efiect to an ordinary pistol- ball. Sup- pose that a sqtiadroti of TOO men charge an enemy's squadron of equal numbers, and that 75 direct their aim so badly, that not one of their missiles took effect, there still remain 300 well- directed missiles at the first discbarge; or, even imagine it possible, that only one in 100 was efficient, 100 men in ten minutes could put 1200 hors de combat. 2d, A short carbine, cap. able of being discharged with the same rapidity ae the pistol, but propelling 16 instead of 12 missiles, particularly afqdicabfe to naval warfare, as 50 men, directing their fire on the enemy's deck, while the fire of 50 more was directed against the masts and rigg- ing, would in one minute pour a shower of 16,000 missiles- over the whole vessel; thus rendering her defenceless, and the boarding and capture conse- quently easy and almost instantaneous. The Mar- qnis of Clanricarde, who has taken a great interest in the perfection of this instrument, was present at the experiments, together with Colonel Buller and several other gentlemen. They were conducted by Mr. Wilkinson, the eminent gun- maker, in Pall- mall, and completely succeeded in producing all the effect* we have enumerated. The pistol was about 3£ lbs. in weight, with an elliptical muzzle, and loaded with great, ease and simplicity from the breech. Tlio specimen was admirably finished as a piece of work- manship, and the balls were throw n with such force, that they rebounded from a brick wall, at thirty yards, more than half- way back. It seemed to us impossible that any military force could exist in the face of so terrible an engine; and for the protection of houses from burglars, we never saw so irrestisible weapon. The invention, as improved by Mr. Wilkinson, is applicable to cannon as well as smaller arms; and as it is about to be tried by our public boards, we have no doubt it will soon become well known to the world.— Literary Gaztte. LANCASTER ASSIZES.— THE WIGAN RIOTERS. — James Thompson and Richard Meadows, convicted of participating in the attempts to destroy the house and properly of Messrs.

GAOI, BIRD EXTRAORDINARY.— A few evenings since, a decayed tradesman of Taunton, having made too free with Sir John Barleycorn in the vicinity of Wilton Gaol, was so far gone that he actually got under the bridge at Shuttern, not knowing whore he was, and wading through the mud and water, groped his way into the gaol garden, and knocked at the dnor. The watchman, unused to such a nocturnal visitation, eagerly demanded of the gentleman in black ( for lie was covered with black mud from head to foot) what he wanted, when he replied that, he had lost his way, and was perishing wilh cold, and giving his name, piteously requested that they would let liini in. The circumstance having been communi- cated to the gaoler, lie for some lime hesitated to admit him within his solemn confines without a mitti- mus; In. t at length ordered him to be taken in for the night. A most horrible occurrence took place last week nn Nant Farm, in the parish of Llangattock- vibon- Avel, Monmouthshire. A waggon and three horses, belonging to Mr. Llovd, who occupies the farm, were employed in a very steep field, for the purpose r. f carrying home its produce. When the men went to their afternoon meal, they detached two of the horses and left them lo feed, about half way down Ihe ascent. The wheel horse was left in the waggon at Ihe summit. The latter horse, wishing as it is sup- posed to join his companions, began to advance in that direction, when the weight of his load over- powered him and forced down the waggon with such sudden violence towards the two other horses, that before either of them could get out of the way, they were actually spitted by the shafts— one of which entered the body of each horse ; and when the men returned, both of them were found dead.
