THE TEETH.— GREIG THOMSON, Surgeon- Dentist, 25, New Bond Street, begs to call the attention of the public to the improvement he has recently made in gold stopping, for filling decayed teeth. The advantages arising from this improvement are, that it admits of the cavity being filled with- out pain, effectually arrests the progress of decay, and resembles the teeth in point of colour, much more than any other invention now in use. Gold, from its being the only ductile metal that can resist the action of the acids of the mouth, has long been deservedly considered the only material with which decayed teeth can be filled with any certainty of a permanently beneficial result, this fact must be evident to those who have'had the misfortune to have their teeth filled with any of those cements to which so many attractive names are given, and to which so many miracles have been attributed ; these cements being amalgams of mercury with silver, tin, or lead, are quickly acted upon by the acids of the mouth, which, in a short tme, convert the tooth and the stoppiug into one black mass, and ultimately dissolve both ; in addition to this evil the deleterious effects of mercury upon the mouth are too well known to require further comment.

Thomson continues to perform all the operations of Dental Surgery, and to fix natural and artificial teeth on the most improved principles combined with the utmost moderation of term|._ AVIES'S FINE WAX CANDLES, Is. 6d. *> er lb.; Is. 9d.; Rose, 2s.; Camphor 2s.; superior Almond 2s. 6d.— Sup& fine Sealiog- Wax 4s. 6d. per lb.— Refined Sperm Oil, 6s. 6d. per gallon ; LampJ)^ 4s.— Fox Cash, at DAVIES'S Old Established Warehouse, 63, St, Martin's- fcue ( opposite New Slaughter's Coffee- house), Charing- cross. • W 74 JOHN BULL; March 6.

Don Carlos's official Gazette of the 19th February contains dispatches from Catalonia, signed by Don Benito Tristany, detailing an action 011 the 17th, in which he repulsed a corps of 400 infantry that had left Esparragnera for Manresa, killed 250, including two Lieutenant- Colonels and several other Officers, and took 300 muskets and five caisson', his own loss being trifling. The Gaceta mentions the report of 1,400 Carlists having entered Siguenza, protected by another column of superior force. The same journal has official returns of the deserters that have come over from the enemy in the preceding week. They amount to twenty- three, including a Spanish Captain and four privates of the British Legion. A Madrid paper announces the arrival of a report from the Com- mandant of the movable column sent in pursuit of the Carlist force that has invaded the province of Guadalaxara. The Commandant says that he has not overtaken the enemy; but that, unfortunately, he has, on a dark night, attacked another Christino column in concert with which he is acting; that he has killed three and wounded ten, and would most probably have killed and wounded many more had not the cries of Viva Isabella !" apprised him of his blunder. The Hamburgh papers announce the entrance of a corps of the troops of the three protecting Powers into Cracow on the 17th ult., tinder the command of an Austrian General, to enforce the demand ofthe Powers made to the Republic, because, as the General says in a proclamation, " this demand has not been complied with by the Government of Cracow, notwithstanding the means generously offered to it."— At the conclusion of this proclamation he says," Mean- time the operations of the Administration and judicial authorities of the Republic experience no interruption; of course, however, they are subordinate to the military authority in the measures that relate to the public safety and the clearing of the territory of the Republic." A second proclamationjenjoins those individuals, not natives of the Republic, who in the capacity of Officers, subalterns, or privates in the former Polish army, or who in any other manner took an active part in the late Polish revolution, to quit the territory within the term of six days, with the threat of severe punishment for them, and those who may harbour and conceal them, even such as have been admitted into the civil or militaiy service of the Republic, or have acquired the rights of citizens, in the event of non- compliance. The Journal des Debats has refused to accept from the new Ministry the annual subsidy of 80,000 francs ( 3,2001.), which it has regularly received from the French Treasury during the last five years. We learn from Portugal that the Elective Chamber has been debating on a new organisation of the army, and the motion of Senor Barjona, a staunch Ministerialist, creates much uneasiness to the Court. The Queen, it seems, had, according to a regular contract, given the office of Commander- in- Chief to her husband, but Baijona moved that no such office should existin time ofpeace, but, that when it did exist it should be filled by a person of responsibility. This motion met the favour of the Chamber, much of course to the chagrin of Donna Maria, who declared that nothing should induce her to sanction a measure so calculated to render her ridiculous in the eyes of her new husband; and the Ministers threatening to resign if the project was persevered in, it has been for the present postponed. So low was the credit of the Government that it has been refused by the Bank of Lisbon a loan of about 4,0001. CAPTAIN CHAMIER'S " BEN BRACE."— 11 Ben Brace is the glorious type of a glorious class. Certainly not the beau ideal but the beau real of a thorough British seaman. He tells his own tale, and how beautifully he tells it! His idiom is critically classical, not a flaw is to be found in his main- deck dialect, it is racy with the flavour of the grog tub, his metaphors fly out as freely as the pennant of the breeze. Wei ave here a complete biography of our greatest naval hero in the graphic phraseology of this best of all Bens, ft is an admirable naval story, and will be dear to every man before the mast. The messes of his Majesty's ships will we are sure club up to buy each one a copy of it. As a work of literature we pronounce it deserving of high praisMetropolitan for March. LADY CHARLOTTE BURY'S NEW WORK.—" We are inclined to consider The Devoted as the best of Lady Charlotte Bury's novels ; it contains, as a story, more interest, variety, and vigour than any she has hitherto published; and our task in threading its mazes was at once easy and exciting. We suppose it must be classed among the fashionable novels; but it is free from the flippancy and insipidity of the class; and our authoress writes with truth and feeling of other conditions of life than those of the ball- room and the opera- box: and the same resolute, but not obtrusive desire of vindicating humanity, and of illustrating sound principles and right feelings, which we have praised in her former works, is here also manifest, only displayed on a wider canvass, and wrought out with fuller power." — Athenceum. One of the greatest impositions practised at the present day by shopkeepers, not only in London, but in every city and town in the United Kingdom, is that of forging the property of another, and im- posing on the public the forged article with all the assurance of inno- cence. We allude, in the present instance, to ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL. Many years ago Mr. Rowland discovered this useful and ele- gant article, which, from its real merits alone, gained him an immense popularity. This no sooner became thecase than it was, and is now, imitated by many shopkeepers. We should have imagined that an English tradesman, who boasts of confidence and integrity unknown in any other part of the world, wonld not have stooped to the meanness of so base and paltry an action. Nevertheless, we know for certain that such is the case, and we advise all patrons of Rowland's cele- brated articles to purchase only of respectable vendors. NAPLES SOAP.— J. and E. Atkinson, perfumers, beg respectfully to recommend to gentlemen who use Naples Soap, a very choice article just imported, perfumed with the flowers of the rose, and will be sold at a very small advance on the usual prices. They have also some equally fine perfumed a l'Orange, an Cedrat, and various other perfumes. As Naples soap, when fine and genuine, is beyond com- parison the best of all articles for shaving, they can with confidence recommend that which they import, it being procured from the best manufacturer in Naples, without limit to price.— N. B. Superior shaving brushes, warranted.— Perfumery warehouse, 24, Old Bond- street, February 1st. Upwards of 1,300 valuable trees were blown down during the late gwful gales which visited the eastern coast, in the Earl of Tankerville's Park, at Chillingham. At Alnwick, the well- known and largest ash tree m the country, called the Broom tree, and supposed to have been planted 400 years ago, which stood in the churchyard, was torn up by the roots, during the recent gales, carrying away the wall, and doing much damage— Tyne Mercury. THE IRON TRADE.— At a meeting of iron masters held at Wake- field yesterday, a further advance of 15s. per ton on pig iron was de- cided upon. There is a very heavy demand for iron of every descrip- tion.— Chesterfield Gazette. PARLIAMENTARY ANALYSIS. HOUSE OF LORDS. .- • MONDAY Lord DPVCANNOK brought up the report of the Commission ap- pointed to examine the plans for the building of the new Houses of Parliament. The Noble Lord stated that he had directed the plana selected to be placed in one of the Committee- rooms for the inspec- tion of the House and of the Committee of the House of Commons on the same subject.— Some Bills were forwarded a stage, and their Lordships adjourned. TUESDAY. A great number of petitions were presented against the Ecclesias tical Courts' Consolidation Bill.— Lord TEYNHAM presented a petition complaining of the conduct ofthe acting Magistrates of Brighton to- wards a female named Booth ; but their conduct was defended and vindicated by the Duke of RICHMOND, Lord STRANGFORD, Lord CHI CHESTER, and the LORD CHANCELLOR.— The Archbishop of CANTER- BURY presented a Bill founded on recommendations ofthe Ecclesias- tical Commissioners, for " imposing certain restrictions on the renewal of leases by Ecclesiastical persons." It was read a first time, but no day was named for the second reading.— Adjourned till Thursday. THURSDAY. The Earl of WINCHILSEA, on account of the absence of the Earl of Roden, requested theMarguess of Londonderry to postpone the motion of which he had given notice, for copies ofthe Commons' Reports on Orange Lodges.— The Marquess of LONDONDERRY said that he was considerably embarrassed by the request thus made; but he would leave it with the House to decide what course ought to be pursued.— The Duke of CUMBERLAND considered that the postponement would only be an act of justice to the Noble Earl.— Lord MELBOURNE said that the Noble Lord might live another day under the imputation, if any were made. The motion was postponed till Monday. FRIDAY. The Royal assent was given by commission to the Exchequer, the Transfer of Aids, and the Dean Forest, Bills; together with several private Bills. In replying to some suggestions by the Marquess of LONDONDERRY, with respect to the future arrangement of the See'of Durham, Lord MELBOURNE stated that they would be those recommended in a report of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners that had been signed that morning. Lord GLE. VELG brought in a Bill to provide for the better adminis- tion of justice in the West Indies, and their Lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY. The Brighton Railway Bill was read a second time.— The London and Gravesend Railway Bill was lost by a majority of 114.— The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was the intention of Govern- ment to introduce a Bill which would separate the civil functions from the Episcopal office attached to the see of Durham. It would also embrace the question of future emoluments. Many petitions having been presented for and against the Irish Municipal Corporations Bill, Mr. O'LOGHLIN ( Attorney- General for Ireland) moved the second reading of that Bill.— Sir ROBERT PEEL, after an elaborate analysis of the history of Irish corporations, in- sisted, in opposition to a passage in the King's Speech, as well as to the assertions of Mr. O'Loghlin, that the Bill differed in many im- portant particulars from the principle adopted in the Act for re- forming the English municipal corporations. The Right Ho- nourable Baronet then proceeded to announce what would, in his opinion, be a preferable plan to that proposed by Ministers. The plan of reform of the Right Hon. Baronet differs from that of the Government in this most important particular, that it would place in the hands of the responsible Ministers of the Crown the patronage of municipal offices and the guardianship of the property of corporations. Sir ROBERT PEEL proposes to invest the Crown with the prerogative of nomination to the offices of Sheriffs and Magistrates, instead of placing those important official appointments at the mercy of the Town Councils, or their leaders and guides. The management of corporate estates the Right Hon. Baronet pro- poses to commit to Commissioners, to be appointed by the Crown, whose duty is to be of the same nature ae- tiwt- nonvatscharged by the Commissioners appointed under the Act of the 9th Geo. IV., or, as they are commonly called in Ireland, " the Wide- street Commis- sioners." Another part of the plan of Sir R. PEEL is to abolish all the petty Courts in coroorations— such as MahoriaF. Courts, Courts of Conscience and the like— and to transfer the jurisdiction of the whole of them to the Courts ofthe Assistant Barristers. Sir ROBERT concluded a speech of two hours and a halFs duration amidst loud cheers which continued for several minutes.— The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER addressed the House in favour of the Bill.— Lord STANLEY followed, and after an able exposure of the inconsistency of Mr. S. Rice's speech, which the Noble Lord proved by reading some former and rather recent opinions of Mr. Rice's, his Lordship ex- pressed his entire concurrence in the suggestions of Sir Robert Peel. Lord JOHN RUSSELL stated that the course Government intended to pursue was, to move, on Monday next, that the House should go into Committee on the Bill; and, in answer to an inquiry by the Noble Lord, Sir R. PEEL announced that, when the former motion should have been made, he would move that it be an instruction to the Committee to consider his plan as well as that embraced by the Bill.— The Bill was then read a second time, and the House adjourned. TUESDAY. Mr. P. THOMSON moved a series of resolutions, founded upon the report of the Select Committee on Railroads which were agreeed to. Leave was given to Mr. WAKLEY to bring in a Bill to provide for the remuneration of medical men whose services should be required for the information of Coroners' Juries. In answer to a question from Sir S. CANNING, Lord PALMERSTON said that he had received no official account of the entrance of Rus- sian, Austrian, and Prussian troops into Cracow, but that from what had previously transpired he did not think such a circumstance un- likely. The Noble Lord added, that he had determined nothing as to what would be the conduct , of Government if the alleged event should prove to have taken place. Mr. MACKINNON obtained leave for the appointment of a select Committee to inquire into the general question of turnpike roads in Englandand Ireland.— Adjourned. WEDNESDAY. Mr. MILES presented petitions from Frome, & c., complaining of a decision of the Revising Barristers, by which 1,200 electors had been disfranchised. The decision complained of was the rejection of the overseers'lists, in consequence of an informality in the signing of them.— Colonel GORE LANGTON supported the prayer of the petitions, and hoped that relief would be offered in the shape of an ex post facto law. The Prisoners' Counsel Bill was considered at great length in Committee.— Mr. WAKLEY moved a new clause, to the effect that prisoners might be heard by Counsel or Attorney.— Mr. EWAHT, the ATTORNEY- GENERAL, & C., having made some remarks, Sir F. POLLOCK suggested that the clause should be so altered as to apply to those country Courts where attorneys were in the habit of appearing to plead for their clients. This alteration was eventually acquiesced in, and the new clause, as altered, proposed to form part of the Bill. The clause empowering prisoners before Magistrates to be> heard by Counsel was much contested. The Bill was proceeded - frith as far as clause 5, when the House resumed. The adjourned debate on the Poole Municipal Election question was then resumed, and after an amendment, which proposed to limit the inquiry, had been rejected, the original motion was agreed to. THURSDAY. In reply to a qnestion by Sir R. PEEL, Lord J. RUSSELL stated that a Bill 011 the subject of Church rates in England would be brought in after the Easter recess.— In the course of a short conversation on the subject of the Dorchester labourers it was annouuced by the same Noble Lord that the Royal clemency had been extended to other two of these convicts, in the reduction of their punishments to three years' duration. Mr. P. SCROPE obtained leave to bring in a Bill for " the levy of poor rate and highway rate in all the parishes in England and Wales, upon a uniform system of valuation and assessment."— Lord JOHN RUSSELL approved of the principle of the Bill, but would not pledge himself to support it through all its details.— Sir R. PEEL suggested the propriety of taking the valuation at the actual rental of the pro- perty in all cases.— Sir R. MUSGRAVE obtained leave to bring in a Bill to improve the system of Grand Jury presentments in Ireland; and Mr. O'BRIEN obtained leave to bring in a Bill for the relief of the destitute poor of Ireland. The Hon. Member observed that the Government was bound to do something, after having expended 20,0001. in a Commission of Inquiry. His plan was nearly similar to that adopted in England. The Municipal Act Amendment Bill was considered in Commit- tee, and its several clauses were very fully considered.— Mr. DIVETT moved tne second reading of the Stafford ( borough) Disfranchisement Bill. After a very zealous defence of his constituents by Captain CHETWYND, who moved 8s an amendment the postponement of the second reading forsix months,- the question was put, when the num- bers were— For the second reading now, 53; against it, 6. The Bill was Accordingly read a second time.— Adjourned. FRIDAY. Mr. WALLACE presented three petitions from persons in the county of Carlow, containing allegations against Colonel Bruen, the Member for that county, on the ground of his oppression and cruelty towards his tenants for political objects.— Col. BRUEN strongly defended his oonduct, declaring that he had not disturbed persons engaged in his service, except where it had been absolutely requisite in self- defence. The Gallant Officer complained of the systematic proceedings and outrages committed by those of the opposite party, and again ex- pressed his anxiety for a short investigation, as did Mr. HOPE on behalf of Lord Beresford, who was also attacked by the petitioners.— Several Hon. Members spoke on the subject, and, on the suggestion of Sir HENRY HARDINGE, Mr. WALLACE withdrew his motion that the petitions should be printed. In a Committee of Supply, Mr. C. WOOD moved the usual grants for the naval service; the only one deserving of particular notice being. that for an addition of 5,000 men to the Navy, in pursuance of the intimation in the King's Speech at the opening of the Session.— Some interest was excited by an incidental reference to some cir- cumstances attending Lord AUCKLAND'S appointment as First Lord ofthe Admiralty ; Sir JA. VES GRAHAM havingstated, in replying toa charge inferred against himself by Sir E. CODRINGTON, that the Noble Lord, in accepting office, had stipulated for a retiring pension of 2,0001. a- year for life, in lieu of a pension on the Civil List of 1,0001. and an appointment in Greenwich Hospital of 6001. a- year. In the explanations that followed a little bitterness of manner was visible, particularly between Sir JAMES GRAHAM and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER.— Seveial votes having been agreed to, the House adj. Mr. RAYNER, an actor who considers himself persecuted, and con- sequently privileged to spout about his own affairs, ventured soma time since to address the audience of the Strand Theatre, in a speech,, which seemed to us, extremely likely to place him in a very awkward position. He has, however, subsequently repeated this sort of per- formance at Covent Garden, and talked very largely about oppres- sion and reform, and his rights and his wrongs. This silly con- duct has produced the following very proper communication from the Lord Chamberlain's office, to the lessee of the theatre in which the very improper exhibition took place :— The Lord Chamberlain has observed in the Morning Post news- paper of this day, the report of a speech said to have been addressed to the audience in Covent- Garden Theatre last evening by Mr. Rayner, which contains some very improper and incorrect allusions to the proceedings of this department in regard to theStrand Theatre. His Lordship hopes that Mr. Osbaldiston will feel the necessity of preventing the recurrence of any such circumstance, so calculated to mislead the public, and on a matter in no way connected with his theatre. The records of this department show that the very earliest intimation was sent to the parties who were building the Strand Theatre, apprising them that the Lord Chamberlain could not grant a license for that house. The parties proceeded notwithstanding this intimation, and have made several attempts to evade the law, and to set at defiance the authority which the Lord Chamberlain de- rives from it. No alternative, therefore, remained but to act as the Lord Chamberlain and his predecessors have done upon this subject without reference to any individual, and the consequences are only such as result from a persevering resistance to the provisions of the law, which, as far as the Lord Chamberlain and his officers are con- cerned, it is their desire always to make conducive to the security of existing interests, of individual benefit, and to the satisfaction of the public. Lord Chamberlain's Office, March 2,1836. — To this most proper notice Mr. RAYNER has thought proper to pub- lish an intemperate reply; it is of a nature to render it wholly unworthy of attention. We are assured from a quarter which we think may be depended upon, that the rumour lately revived of a claimant to the title and estates of a Noble Lord is untrue. The female alluded to was the ac- knowledged wife of a person who holds the situation of a clerk in a great mercantile establishment ( the Bank of England), and she has lately died. The boy, her son, is by her husband, and acknowledged as such by him. The Earl retired to the South of France in the month of April, 1819; the boy was born a year after. In order to exhitit the true character of ministerial literature, it il only necessary t ( Prefer to the following extract from the Cork Consti- tution. The following veracious paragraph appears in the Southern Re- porter of last Thursday:— " A list of the Jury for the trial of records at the ensuing assizes ap- pears in our columns. The Sheriffs are both members of an Orange Lodge, and there are only TWENTY Orangemen on the Jurv panel!" We know not on what authority the Reporter has published this falsehood. Its object cannot be mistaken; let the public, however, judge how far the facts will bear out the intended inference. The Sheriffs are both members of an Orange Lodge. That they have been uninfluenced by their Orange feelings in the selection of the record Jury needs no further proof than this, that the number of Papists exceeds that ofOrange Jurors. The Jury panel alluded to contains the names of ten Papists and of only eight Orangemen. This we fearlessly aver to be the fact. If the Reporter feels inclined to sustain the truth of its own statement, let it publish the names of the twenty Orange- men. So much for Orange illiberality. If the corporate offices were now in the hands to which Mr. O'LOGHLIN'S Bill intends to consign them, we might have to look in vain for the name of a single Juror out of the pale of the O'CONNELL faction. The Limerick Chronicle states correctly, that out of 138 policemen appointed by Major MILLER for the province of Munster, there are but 26 Protestants. INTOLERANT SPIRIT OF POPERY.— SEMPER et vhique eadem.— We extract from the " articles of the new constitution of the Mexican Republic, adopted and decreed by the Supreme Federal Congress," and published officially in Mexico, on the 23rd of October, 1835, the following proof and specimen of the tolerant spirit of Popery, so miti- gated and softened down, as we are told, by the spread of intelligence in the 19th century! This is no partial or nngrounded charge of an oppo- nent, nothing which Dr. MURRAY, or any other, taking even DOMI- NUS DENS as their " guide," can twist into a calumny on the purity of his infallible Church, but the deliberate, solemn, andauthenticactofa Roman Catholic Legislature; and forming the very first among the articlesof the new REPUBLICAN (!!) Constitution of Mexico:—" The Mexican nation, sole, sovereign, and independent, as it has hereto- fore been, neither professes, nor protects, any other religion than the Apostolic Roman Catholic; NOR DOES IT TOLERATE THE EXERCISE or ANY OTHER WHATSOEVER."— Surely to the Protestants of Great Britain and Ireland a single word of comment were superfluous. The Leeds Intelligencer says :— We understand that one of the blunders into which the Ministers were betrayed by their indecent haste to pass the Municipal Reform Bill is likely to prove a source of much inconvenience, if not of con- siderable loss. It is well known that for a period of three days which intervened between the election of Councillors, whereupon the old Corporations ceased to exist, and the election of Mayor, there were in reality no Corporations at all; so that there was nobody to whom the Corporation estates belonged. According to law the first person who takes possession of property which has no owner acquires it tor himself; and it is apprehended that the new Corporations may ex- perience much difficulty in recovering the estates from such of the tenants in possession as have not acknowledged their title by the rnyment of rent. The real lawyers are in luck when pretended awyers put on the cap and bells of modern " Liberal legislators. YANKEE WIT.— A pedlar, with his cart, overtaking another of his clan on the road, was thus addressed :—" Hallo, what do you carry ?" " Drugs and medicine," was the reply. " Good!" returned the other, " you may go a- head; I carry grave- stones." April 75. JOHN BULL. 115 NAVAL AND MILITARY. WAR OFFICE, March 4, 1836. 17th Lgt. Drag.— Lieut. L.

Prince CHARLES of NAPLES and Miss SMYTH, whom the papers stated to be on their way to Ireland or America, arrived at Madrid on the 23d ult. The Essejc Standard says— There were high tides at Walton and Yarmouth one day last week, and high words in our Town Council one day this week. The sea and wind blew down some houses at Yarmouth, and Alderman BLAND blew up Alderman THOROGOOD at • Colchester. No damage done in the latter case. The French phrenologists pretend that they have made the dis- covery of a new organ, which they call alimentivite; they refer to it hunger, thirst, the various appetites, gluttony, drunkenness, cigar- smoking, pipe- smoking, inordinate appetite, anorexia ( or loss of appetite), adypsia, polydypsia, and, finally, hydrophobia. The following appears amongst the Lynn intelligence in the Norfolk Chronicle:— WHIG LAW.— It will be recollected that a new election for the South Ward in this borough was held, in consequence of two Alder- men being chosen from the Councillors, thereby reducing the number of Councillors to two- thirds of the whole body. The Attorney- General, Sir JOHN CAMPBELL, gave a decided opinion, of which we subjoin a copy, on the necessity of a fresh election. In juxta- position, we also subjoin s copy of a directly contrary opinion upon precisely the same point, given ny the same Sir JOHN CAMPBELL, for the guidance of the Town Council of Newcastle. It should be mentioned, that the number of Aldermen to be chosen for Newcastle was 14, and of Councillors 42, making a total of 56. LYNN. NEWCASTLE.

RUPTURES.^ THIN^ ATEM^ SELF- ADJUSTING GER- MAN TRUSS, acting effectually without pressure or any complication, is recommended by the Faculty for the Cure and Relief of Hernia. The first mem- bers of Ihe profession are convinced that pressure is not the merit of a good Truss, but a mechanical Resisting power, which cannot be applied to any Truss where straps are used, and that have a pad behind, or where spiral springs and other complications are introduced.

This extraordinary preparation has lately been exten- sively employed in the public and private practice of several eminent French Phy- sicians, who have declared that in no case havethey found itto fail in curing those formidable and tormenting maladies. Patients who had for many years drawn on a miserable existence have, by a few applications, been restored to health and com- fort. Its astonishing and almost miracidous effects have also been experienced in the speedy cure of paralytic affections, contracted and stiff joints, glandular swellings, pains of the chest and bones, chronic rheumatism, palpitation of the heart, and dropsy.

The increased use of Senna since the first introduction of the above induees the present Proprietor to make it more generally known.— Prepared only by Simkin, late Selway, Chemist to his Majesty, 2, New Cavendish- street, Portland- place.

JOiH BULL. LONDON, MARCH 6. THEJIR MAJESTIES are in excellent health at Windsor. The KING held a Levee at St. James's on Wednesday, and returned to the Castle in the evening. The celebration of his MAJESTY'S birth day will take place at the new Palace, which will be opened upon the occasion. It is to be called St. George's Palace. We regret to state that her Royal Highness the Princess SOPHIA was near falling a victim to an accident which occurred on Friday se'nnight. It appears that between twelve and one o'clock in the noon of that day the inmates of that portion of Ken- sington Palace apportioned as the residence of her Royal High- ness were thrown into a state of great consternation and alarm by loud cries of " Fire, fire," which, on examination, were found to proceed from the suite of rooms occupied by the Princess; and on Mr. HERRINGTON, one of her Royal Highness's pages, and Mrs. COCKRAN, her dresser, proceeding to the Princess's dressing- room, they discovered her Royal Highness enveloped in flames. Her Royal Highness, with extraordinary presence of mind, called to them not to be alarmed, but to render her assistance in extin- guishing the flames, which, with the assistance of other members of the household was speedily done. Her Royal Highness's medical attendant was immediately summoned, as were those attached to the households of their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of KENT, the Princess VICTORIA, and the Dnke of SUSSEX, all of whom instantly attended, and we aTe happy to say that on examination it was found that her Royal Highness was but slightly burnt on the right side of her neck, her right ear, and eyebrow. The accident, which but for the great presence of mind exhibited by her Royal Highness might have proved fatal, was, we understand, occasioned by a spark which flew oat of the fire at the moment the Princess was passing the fire- place with a bottle of spirits of wine in her hand, the stopper of which, in her Roynl Highness's endeavours to extinguish a small portion of her dress which had ignited, fell out, and a considerable quantity of the spirituous liquid, coming in contact with the flame, instantly caught fire. There is no doubt that, had not her Royal Highness's cries been so quickly heard, she must have fallen a sacrifice, her dress, collar, and cap being completely burnt. Her Royal Highness since the accident has been visited by her MAJESTY, the Landgravine of HESSE HOMBURG, the Princess AUGUSTA, his Royal Highness the Duke of CUMBERLAND, & c. The Princess remains considerably indisposed from the fright and effects of the • wounds. The knowledge of this melancholy accident having until the fol- lowing Thursday been almost exclusively confined to her attendants and the members of the Royal Family, the public announcement of her Royal Highness's providential escape created a great sensation, not only in the fashionable circles, but amongst all classes. Thurs- day from an early hour, Kensington Palace was literally besieged by the carriages of the Nobility and Gentry, almost the whole of whom at present in town made the most anxious inquiries after the health of her Royal Highness, of which, we regret to state, the report was not so favourable, her medical attendants not considering her so well as on the preceding day. THE accounts from Spain continue ofi- the same character as those of last week. Lieuenant- Cqloinel - EVANS'S brave army is reduced from five brigades to three, and the deser- tions of officers, as well as of men, to the KING'S forces, in- crease rather than diminish. WE begin to tremble— and unaffectedly, too— for Lord MELBOURNE. We have hitherto considered him in the light of a man loftily superior in political character and principles to those, to whose fate and fortunes he has inconsiderately linked himself— and whenever we have found his myrmidons dealing destruction to the right and to the left, we have always pitied the particular position of his Lordship, and anxiously looked for tlie hour when, with a whisk of his tail, he would shake off the creatures by whom he is disgraced and dishonoured. But we begin to fear that " evil associations" have had their proverbial effect, and that the confidence which we previously placed in his Lordship, must be either scantily continued, or altogether withdrawn— and for these fears, we shall this day give our reasons, adduced from events which have occurred in the highest and lowest places during the last week or two, and from circumstances of the most important and the least important character, which have occurred during the same period. Begin we, with the beginning— the appointment of Dr. HAMPDEN as Regius Professor of Divinity at' Oxford, and the translation of Dr. MALTBY to the See of Durham. Of the former of these transactions we gave last Sunday a clear, and what we believe conscientiously to be a strictly correct history; and since that history has not been con- tradicted, we think we have aright to assume thatitis correct. In order to bring it to the recollection of our readers without the trouble of reference, we repeat it:— " The Archbishop of C ANTERBURY having been requested to sub- mit this appeal and petition ( the address which appeared in the Morning Post of Thursday last), to his MAJESTY, his Grace, who uni- formly acts with honour and candour, and, being free from all guile himself, suspects it not in others, immediately waited on Lord MEL- BOURNE, and stated to his Lordship that he had such an address to present. Lord MELBOURNE informed his Grace that it would be unnecessary to hurry the presentation, for that nothing would be done immediately. The Archbishop, satisfied with this assurance, retired, when, in two or three days after the interview, Lord MELBOURNE went down to Brighton, and obtained the Royal assent to HAMPDEN'S appointment— the KING not having received the appeal from the Uni- versity, and, consequently, not being aware that he was sanctioning the appointment to the most responsible situation in the Establishment to which his MAJESTY is devotedly and constitutionally attached— a man, whose business it would be, according to the principles he has asserted, and the doctrines he has avowed, to undermine and weaken the faith, in support of which King CHARLES the Fi RST was martyred on the scaffold, and for the maintenance of which faith this very Regius Professorship of Divinity was created and endowed." A week has elapsed— no contradiction of this statement has been published, although it has been circulated through- out the empire,— a week has elapsed, during which the SOVEREIGN must have perceived— if our statement be true— that he has been positively blinded, duped, and deceived by his Prime Minister into the appointment of a man to the office of Instructor- general under the KING'S authority, of the Clergy of the Establishment educated at Oxford, who has pub- licly declared, in print, opinions to which we shall presently recur, but which we last week submitted to our readers, and which unquestionably render him the most unfit of all existing men— always excepting Dr. ARNOLD, of Rugby— to hold the office to which our excellent MONARCH, ignorant of the man's character, and hindered from knowing it by the activity of his Prime Minister, in opposition to the conscientious exertions of the exemplary Archbishop of CANTERBURY, has permitted that Prime Minister to nominate him. A week, we say, has elapsed, and Dr. HAMPDEN still holds the Professorship. We, with millions of our fellow- subjects, have implicit confidence in our KING. Our KING is the bead of the Church, whose rights and privileges he has sworn in the presence of his people to maintain. We will not believe that this HAMPDEN can remain where he is; for, putting aside his MAJESTY'S personal indignation at being made the dupe of his own servant, we are sure his MAJESTY must feel that he has a duty to perform for the maintenance of the Establish- ment, to which his sacred oath is pledged, and which duty he has uniformly, whenever left to himself and the operation of his own just, true, and honourable feelings, evincetl a readi- ness and willingness to fulfil, which alone could have emanated from the excellence of his heart and the purity of his Constitu- tional principles. So long as that which is conventionally called his MAJESTY'S Government, contented itself with making war against the revenues and temporalities of the Church, aided and supported by many eminent Divines and laymen of gentle minds and moderate politics, the people gazed placidly at the changes which the Establishment was undergoing, satisfied of their propriety by the ease and readiness with which its most un impeachable supporters lent themselves to the gradual thaw- like reduction of its rights and destruction of its property. Encouraged, we presume, by this docility, this Conserva- tive readiness to yield everything, founded to a great extent upon a belief in the good intentions of the original proposers of Church Reform, Lord MELBOURNE has taken measures which have opened the eyes of the country and the Clergy from one end of the empire to the other. We say Lord MELBOURNE, because, after his Lordship's indignant disavowal of any con- nection with Mr. O'CONNELL, we consider the whole respon- sibility to rest upon his Lordship. But more of that, anon. The question of Church Reform has assumed an entirely new character— it has ceased to be a matter of calculation whether one See be too large or another too small, whether one Bishop be too ill, or another too well paid. It is no longer debated whether Cathedral dignities shall be dribbled out to make up the incomes of parochial Clergymen— for although we, at the time, denounced the first concession to that ar- rangement as a most injudicious admission of a most perilous precedent, it created, from its own plausibility, and the readi- ness with which it was adopted by the most eminent Conser- vative Divines and laymen, no general alarm. It is no consi- deration of collection or commutation of tithes, or even of the mad scheme of equalization of livings. All these matters ad- mitted of consideration and debate; but they are all over- thrown. Even the demand upon the Bishops by the Church Commissioners, to furnish a debtor and creditor account of their receipts and expenditures— the last blow- of degradation — is nothing to the appointment of Dr. HAMPDEN by the KING, under the representations of Lord MELBOURNE, after his interview with the pious and exemplary Archbishop of CANTERBURY. The question now is, whether the established religion of the country shall, or shall not be, CHRISTIANITY. The question now is, not of pounds, or shillings, or pence, of tithes, or rates, or property ; but whether infidelity, liberalism, German rationalism, scepticism, and BLASPHEMY, shall or shall not be publicly taught under the KING'S authority, and, in his Royal name, to the rising generation of our Clergy. It is useless, if this appointment stand, to say that the " Church is in danger"— it is actually demolished— one wing of the edifice is already levelled to the dust, under the influence of O'CONNELL ; and now, one- half of our Clergy are to receive • their religious instructions from a man, who has printed and published " that Scripture, strictly speaking, con- tains no doctrines whatever." Hear this! The doctrines of Atonement and Redemption, of the Influence of the Holy is a man of high attainments, unimpeachable character, orthodox principles, and amiable manners. He may be a Whig in politics— but if he be, we are quite convinced that he will never allow his political feelings to interfere with the orthodox, just, and honourable discharge of the duties to which he is about to be called. It is generally said that the Reverend Doctor— great as his merits unquestionably are— is indebted for his preferment to the interest of Sir HENRY PARN ELL, whose daughter he married. This, as far as the immediate nomination goes, may or may not be true. If Sir HENRY PARNELL had nothing more to answer for ( politically) than the recommendation of his excel- lent son- in- law to the Episcopal bench, there would be little with which to reproach him, and little for him to reproach him- self with. Indeed, we look upon it as a " set- off" against the Right Honourable Baronet's undisguised support of O'CON- NELL some two or three years since, when that excellent friend to the Protestant Church was not made Attorney- General for Ireland. As to the translation of Dr. MALTBY, the Chronicle, with a naivete unanswerable, vindicates the measure, because if he were fit to be a Bishop at all, he is as fit to be Bishop of DURHAM as Bishop of CHICHESTER. If it were possible to grant the premises, the conclusion might be fair enough; but we never had the slightest doubt of the total unfitness of Dr. MALTBY for a Bishoprick; and, if the slightest doubt could before have arisen in our minds, his Lordship's conduct, during the period he has held the See, must have completely overcome it. Studiously attentive to the professors of every creed, except that of the Establishment, he has opened his house, and his heart, we presume, to Dissenting Ministers of every calling and denomination, giving them precedence and pre- eminence above the Clergy of his own diocese, and evincing in every possible way his affection for principles, which, however con- scientiously he may maintain them, are utterly at variance with his station and profession as a British Prelate. And yet, this mau is selected and singled out for the third Bishoprick in rank in the country, at the same moment that HAMPDEN, the proclaimed assailant of Orthodoxy, is forced upon the KING as his Professor of Divinity at Oxford. In another place, we shall notice some minor evidences which are brought forward against Lord MELBOURNE. Against those which are merely personal to himself, his Lordship may personally defend himself, but upon the points which we have now touched, we can assure him that he has done that, which in any days but these of conciliatory Conservatism, would have insured him an impeachment, and which as it is, will throw the entire influence of an outraged Church, and an indignant Clergy into the scale of opposition to his Government, as a matter of duty and conscience, however reluctant the con- scientious improvers of Ministerial projects may be to receive an addition of strength calculated to call them into a re- sponsibility which their delicacy and moderation appear to induce them so gracefully to avoid. GREAT preparations are making at Kensington Palace for concerts, and balls, and fetes, to lie given by her Royal High- ness the Duchess of KENT during the stay of her Royal Highness's two nephews, Prince FERDINAND of SAXE CO- BURG ( the dilatory husband of the de facto Queen of POR- TUGAL), and his brother, who is represented as a Prince of highly prepossessing appearance and most agreeable manners. His Highness is one year older than the Princess VICTORIA, and it has been hinted by some persons that the opportunity, presented by this visit, might not be disadvantageous^ em- ployed in bringing about, at some future period, an union between the Prince and his illustrious cousin. That any such notion has been entertained in the only quarter where it could for a moment besauctioned, we entirely disbelieve, because the Prince is a Papist, and whatever may happen under the rule of Mr. O'CONNELL in a few years hence, at present the law of the land prevents a marriage between the heir presumptive to the Throne, or its occupant, with any person, professing the Romish faith. It is true, conversion may be resorted to— but we doubt very much whether it would be satisfactory in this instance, inasmuch as a readiness to abandon the faith in which they have been bred, seems almost a family failing with the Prince's relatives. Prince LEOPOLD of SAXE- COBURG, the uncle of the young Prince, and brother to the Duchess of KENT, was a rigid Protestant so long as he was the husband of OUR Princess CHARLOTTE— and so he was, when he became King of the BELGIANS— but when it was thought good for his in- terest to marry the daughter of CITIZEN LOUIS PHILIPPE, he became an equally zealous and devoted Papist. We are quite sure that the rumours which are going about upon the present occasion have their origin only in the small minds which are sometimes to be found in the neighbourhood of great personages ; and that the principles of the illustrious individual, who alone could countenance or encourage such a proceeding, are much too constitutional and honourable, to permit her to stoop to an endeavour to make the future tenancy of the British Throne a matter of personal grati- which we have been taught from our childhood to hold most i sacred, are publicly denounced by the KING'S appointed ' teacher of religion in the University of Oxford, as mere human opinions, scholastic subtleties, and even the results of skilful deceptions upon human intellect. We must say, that Lord MELBOURNE owes it to himself to vindicate his character from an act, only paralleled, if the story be true, by the proceedings of the most detestable of the French Revolutionists. Tne Christian people of Eng- land, who send representatives to Parliament, cannot, with- out some extremely clear explanation of these circumstances, sanction those representatives in the support of Lord MEL- BOURNE and his Government. If they do, they proclaim their desire to have some other established religion than Christianity. If they wish to invest Lord MELBOURNE, or any of his followers, with the power of clipping and carving the national faith according to their own pleasure or conve- nience, and setting up some other, let it be at once pro- claimed, so that English Christians may know the clear and straightforward course which they should pursue. The Clergy and the members of the Church of England know that their first duty is to GOD— A duty to be preferred to all earthly considerations; and when the KING'S Government evinces a resolution to destroy the Christian religion, it be- comes the imperative duty of the whole Church Establishment to throw its weight into the scale against such gross, unquali- fied, and undisguised attacks as those, which we have seen made within the last few days, and which we have here set forth. Lord MELBOURNE, it is true, has given the See of Chiches- ter to Dr. LONGLEY, the Master of Harrow. Dr. LONGLEY ing and violating the sacred compact by which her illus- trious and amiable daughter will become entitled to its oc- cupancy. THERE will, we hope and trust, be a division— we wish to< see one— on the Irish Corporation Bill, in the House of Com- mons, to- morrow;— and we hope and trust, still more ear- nestly, that it will be of a character to convince the country that the course pursued by Sir ROBERT PEEL is dictated by a regard for its real interests, in which neither factious oppo- sition, nor what is even less likely, a desire for office, in the slightest degree mingle. We confess we are anxious for more active measures : it seems that we have stood long enough upon the defensive, and that negative Conservatism is not altogether dissimilar to the gentlemanly mildness of a hen- pecked husband, who does anything for a quiet life. Nevertheless, we bow, as is our duty, to leaders who, from the eminence at which they are placed, see farther than their followers in the valley. We, however, cannot conceal from ourselves the simple fact, that Conservatives who give up everything, cease to be Con- servatives. RAILROADS. THE Leeds and Selby Railroad Company has just an- nounced that no dividend whatever will be paid for the half- year ending at Christmas last. This railroad has been at work about sixteen months; for the first half- year they declared a dividend of 2\ per cent.; and it has been working all the time at prices for carriage of goods fixed by themselves, and after nine months' experience March 6.

When Britain first at Heaven's command, Arose out of the azure main, How beauteous was the favour'd land, In all its varied hill and plain! No iron- master then was known, No scheme, nor steam, no fraud nor strife; Contented industry alone Supplied the honest means of life. Then did no Jew nor jobber dare His bubble speculation try, The plough- share was the only share, And land was " real property." Nor workhouse want, nor bloated wealth, Nor gaol for penury or crime; And fraud and violence and stealth Were strangers to the golden time. Golden and silver age— away— Scheduled in A and B, they roll: The iron sceptre now has sway, The iron is in Britain's soul, An iron hand, the happier things Of town and country topples down: An iron hand is laid on kings, And causeways wear an iron crown. For ancient w ays and paths are spurn'd, Neglected every former " trust;" E'en he who left no stone unturn'd— MACADAM— blossoms in the dust. For railroads now the realm divide, ' Tis fire burn, and bubble pot; And Ruin takes a rapid ride To the Land's End, from John o' Groat. Lo the prospectus!— read the scheme— See Jews and jobs your wealth evoke; Till cash evaporate in steam, And house and land are gone, like smoke. The line approved— the survey drawn— From north to south, from east to west: The Parson's glebe, the Bishop's lawn, The Squire's hall, the peasant's nest— The Noble's seat, the village- green, The garden trim, the copse, the lane, The fields, the groves!— such things have been— Ah, when shall such things be again! Like MILTON'S hero, at his work, With very malice of the Devil, They tear the uplands with a jerk, And bring all nature to a level. Here they blow up, there they blow down—' Arch over this, and tunnel that; Till Church and market, vill and town, Are all one universal flat! But ye, who prize your native soil, Whom rural scenes and sports delight,— Up, and be men— drive from the spoil The Jobber and the Israelite. For if ye listlessly despond, On title- deeds you frailly stand: They'll rail— the seal from off the bond— Shylock will rail away your land. And ye, in dismal cities pent, Or ' prentice youth or journeyman, O listen not to cent per cent, And be not made their warming- pan. What boots it, that at York you dine, There by day, and back at night; For smell of hay and tedded kine No more your Sunday shall delight. What tho' to Bristol in a day, You whirl away your hundred mile— a, " No more you'll jog on the foot- path way, And merrily, merrily bend the stile— a." Men of all classes and degrees, Your best exertions then engage; Throw out the bills and trams, M. P.' s, Nor let them pass a single stage. And, oh ! ye Ministers of State, Whom rank and patronage environ, Who rule us— since it is our fate, Oh, rule not, with a rod of iron. Put " tram and tram- road on the shelf, Where if ye also would remain, Britain again might be herself, And have her golden days again.* • This last stanza i « " too true to be ironical. FOLLOWING the example of the highest leaders, we are always anxious to bow to authority; we therefore abstain from saying one word on the proceedings in the Carlow Com- mittee. When the evidence is printed, we shall trouble our readers with a few comments upon it— at present we leave the subject at rest. ORANGE LODGES. THE following addresses to the Brethren of the Orange In- stitution have been made public during the week. To that tvhieh has been transmitted to Ireland by his Royal Highness the Duke of CUMBERLAND, and other distinguished Brothers, we beg to call particular attention. It is a most powerful and beautiful piece of writing, and such as was called for by cir- jumstances, at a moment when it appears that the meaning ) f the word " Conservatism" has been altered by general tonsent, and that the principle of supporting the Constitution s to be maintained by a ready concession of everything Ikely to strengthen or benefit it. While we cannot but admire the loyal willingness with i'hich the illustrious and noble persons connected with this most truly Conservative institution have bowed to the will of the SOVEREIGN, whose august family came to our Throne at the call of the Orangemen of other days, we cannot but regret that the abandonment of this constitutional corporation by many of its friends and patrons preceded the expression of the MONARCH'S wish. We fear that the readiness with which the dissolution of the body was resolved upon in England, is not likely to be generally acquiesced in, in Ireland, where the security and advantages to life and property which have been derivea from its establishment and continuance are better ap- preciated than they can be in this country, where its utility and importance are necessarily upon a much smaller scale. His Royal Highness the Duke of CUMBERLAND writes thus:— TO THE MEMBERS OF THE LOYAL ORANGE INSTITUTION OP GREAT BRITAIN. St. James's Palace, Feb. 29,1836. Dear Brethren,— Having already addressed the Orangemen of Ireland, in conjunction with official and distinguished members of that Institution, recommending to them, in consistency with his Majesty's expressed wishes, that the Institution should be dissolved; I now feel it my duty to recommend the same course to the Orange- men of Great Britain. I am confident that their feelings of loyal and dutiful attachment to their Sovereign will induce them to pursue that course which my sense of my duty prompts me to recommend, and in my own person thus painfully to set the example. ( Signed) ERNEST. I subjoin the Address to the Members of the Loyal Orange Insti- tution in Ireland:— TO THE MEMBERS OF THE LOYAL ORANGE INSTITUTION IN IRELAND. Dear Brethren,— The last few hours have been fraught with acts of momentous importance to our loyal institution. The situation of those members of the Legislature in whom you have so long reposed confidence has been one of extreme difficulty as regards long- cherished feelings and attachment, which we should have felt insurmountable had we not been intimately acquainted with the spirit of religious and political insurbordination which has ever been the distinctive feature of our bond of union. We have now no need to remind you that the fonndation of that union has been strictly Scriptural— exemplified in the short sentence " Fear God— honour the King," and having hitherto experienced your unshaken steadiness during successive trials of no ordinary character, we now confidently appeal to you. We have been placed in a most painful position— viz., either to advocate the continuance of an institution opposed not only by our enemies, on account of our religious and political principles, but also by many of our most eminent and Conservative friends, who are of opi- nion thatsecretsocietiesshouldbediscontinued. Undersuch circum- stances the attempt to prolong our existence, by adopting a violent course of opposition, might have exposed ourselves and you to that which we have never laid ourselves open to—" a suspicion of condi- tional loyalty." Our second course was to state, that if our strong remonstrances with the present advisers of his Majesty did not avert the injustice that was threatened to our loyal body, the King's will, constitutionally expressed, would be obeyed by us in spirit as well as to the letter, and that we would submit, as we had often done, to any obloquy in assertion of the true Christian basis of our social compact. Could we hesitate for a moment as to our course of duty ? You know the result, and to give full effect to this statement we offer our advice and admonition. The attention of England is fixed upon you, and humanly speak- ing, you are to determine the fate of Protestantism in Ireland. Friends and enemies expect your decision with almost equal interest — the adversary hoping that some manifestation of intemperance will place you within his power— friends confident that you will be found equal to the difficulties of the occasion, and will give a crown- ing assurance of the pure faith and loyalty by which you ever have been distinguished. We cannot, and do not, attempt to disguise from you that the address voted by the House of Commons, was not called for by the state of Ireland^ or by any demerits in our institution. We cannot say to you that the dangers, to meet which the Orange Institution was framed, threaten us no longer, or that you must not as we feel it a painful task to relinquish an association justly endeared to us; but we can tell you that an opportunity has now been given you which should not be lost— the opportunity of manifesting a dutiful regard to the feelings of our gracious Sovereign, and offering to his Majesty a proof of steadfast attachment, of which we are persuaded he will never be forgetful. The severe duty has devolved on us of recommending that, in the spirit of the generous devotedness which has always characterised the Orange Society, you now dissolve it. The sacrifice is great; and we will not conceal from you that attendant circumstances may . render it more painful. You may have to endure the taunts of the malignant, and to resist the temptations of those who, for their own dark ends, would provoke you to indis- cretion ; but the reward is also great. You will release your Sove- reign from embarrassment; you will disappoint the malevolence of your enemies; you will win for yourselves the approbation of the wise and good, and silence, by one heroic act, the slanders which have long been circulated against your reputation. Receive, brethren, the advice and admonition in the feeling in which they are offered, and with them the pledge that your confi- dence shall not be abused. Anticipate legislation; relieve the Sovereign from the necessity of enforcing severe measures against you. To the renown you had previously well earned, of being ready at your King's command to encounter every dangerand endure every toil, add the still higher honour of renouncing all feelings which he would discourage, and even the institution in which you have found such effectual protection. Show your brethren in England that you are patient as much as resolved— that jour principles of religion and loyalty are not of a nature to fall away in the time of trouble and rebuke. Show them that the lessons of Christian endurance taught by the instruction and example of the persecuted ministers of the Protestant Church have not been learned in vain, and be encouraged by a confident trust that the King and people, who came forward so nobly to sustain those afflicted men under their temporal privations, will never desert the high cause for which they are suffering, or for- sake you, who will have thus proved yourselves worthy to be per- mitted by an allwise Providence to rank amongst its most faithful champions. We, the undersigned Members of the Loyal Orange Institution in Great Britain, feel it our duty to follow the example of our illustrious Grand Master in ceasing to bear the loyal name of Orangemen. KENYON, late Deputy Grand W. VERNER, M. P. brother Orangeman, as to render it unnecessary for me to assure them that in ceasing to be a member of the Orange Society, I shall ever retain unaltered and uncompromised those principles of devoted attachment to all that still remains of our once glorious Protestant Constitution, and those principles of genuine loyalty to the Throne, which have always been the distinctive marks of the Loyal Orange Institution in Ireland. Believe me, my dear friends, with the most cordial sentiment of re- gard and affection, yours very sincerely, HENRY MAXWELL. St. James's Palace, Feb. 26, 1836. Dear Sir,— I enclose you, as Grand Secretary of the Loyal Orange Institution in Ireland, a letter which I have received this day from his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State, Lord John Russell, which I request you will make known to our brother Orangemen in Ireland, together with an address from myself, as Grand Master, and other official and distinguished members of the Institution.— Your's very sincerely, E RNEST, Grand Master. To H. Maxwell, Esq., M. P. Whitehall, Feb. 26,1836. Sir,— I consider it to be my duty to transmit to your Royal High- ness as early as possible the printed votes of the House of Commons, containing an address on the subject of Orange Lodges, and other si- milar societies, together with his Majesty's most gracious answer. I presume it will not be necessary to take any further step to bring to the knowledge of the society of which your Royal Highness is Grand Master the contents of these documents.— I have the honour to be your Royal Highness's obedient humble servant, J. RUSSELL. To his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland. St. James's Palace, Feb. 26, 1836. My Lord,— I have received your Lordship's letter, with the enclosed printed copies of the resolutions of the House of Commons, containing an address on the subject of Orange Lodges and other similar societies, together with his Majesty's most gracious answer. Before I had re- ceived your Lordship's communication, I had already taken steps, in conjunction with several official and distinguished members of the Loyal Orange Institution in Ireland, to recommend its immediate dissolution, in conformity with the loyal principles of that Institution. I have only to add I shall take immediate steps to dissolve the Loyal Orange Institution in Great Britain.— I have the honour to be yours sincerely, ERNEST. To the Right Hon. Lord John Russell. The Earl of WINCHILSEA has also addressed the brethren of the Orange Lodge which is named after his Lordship's title:— TO THE BRETHREN OF THE VVINCHILSEA ORANGE LODGE. Brethren and Fellow Protestants, Foreseeing the storm which was gathering around us, and feeling that, upon sound principles of good government, the secret signs and symbols by which the Orange Society has hitherto been regulated could not be justified or upheld, I entertained a sanguine hope that it would have been averted by the appeal which I took the liberty of making to you in October last. In that hope, however, I have been disappointed; but I am confident that you will now fully realise the expectations which I am about to express, as to the line of conduct which you will feel it your duty to pursue under the most trying cir- cumstances in which you have been placed. By the loyalty by which you have been so pre- eminently distinguished, but, above all, by the interest of that sacred cause which has united us, let me implore you, as your faithful and devoted friend, now to yield a ready obedience to the wishes and commands of our Sovereign. Injustice and persecutions you have borne with a Christian meek- ness and forbearance which would have reflected lustre on the bright- est days of Christianity. You will now be called upon to endure the sneers and taunts of your bitterest and most relentless enemies. Treat them with the silence and contempt they merit and deserve; nay, further, avail yourselves gladly of every opportunity which may offer in the slightest degree to promote the temporal or spiritual happiness of the degraded and deluded followers of Popery by whom you are surrounded. By such Christian conduct you will offer to the world at large an incontestible proof of the worth and value of that sound scriptural religion for the maintenance of which we have associated ourselves. In resigning the office which I had the honour of filling as Grand Master of your lodge, be assured I am still prepared to work with yon in support of those religious principles which have been the bona of union between us, and in defence of which I shall at all times be ready to make every sacrifice.— I have the honour to remain. Brethren and fellow Protestants, with every respect, your most faithful and devoted servant, WINCHILSEA AND NOTTINGHAM. London, March 1, 1836. A. H. COLE, M. P. A. PERCEVAL, M. P. H. MAXWELL, M. P.

This address was communicated to the Dublin Committee in the following letter from HENRY MAXWELL, Esq., Grand Secretary; which also enclosed the subjoined correspondence between his Royal Highness the Duke of CUMBERLAND and Lord JOHN RUSSELL:— London, Feb. 26, 1836. My dear Friends,— I transmit to yon by this post an address to the Orangemen of Ireland, signed by his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland, as Grand Master of our institution, and by several of the influential members of our body. I also send a copy of his Royal Highness's letter to me, enclosing a communication which his Royal Highness received this morning from Lord John Russell. In accord- ance with the sentiments expressed in our address, 1 feel it to be my duty ( painful as it is) to resign the situation of Grand Secretary of the Orangemen of Ireland, ana to recommend the immediate disso- lution of our loyal body. I trust my conduct and principles are sufficiently well known by those to whom it has for so long a time been my privilege to act as a Since the above were in print we have received the follow- ing report of the proceedings of the Grand Orange Lodge in Ireland, which will be found fully to justify our apprehensions that the feeling so readily expressed in this country would not be unanimously approved in that. The report will speak for itself:— At a very full meeting of the Committee of the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland, held on the 27th February, JOSEPH GREER, Esq., Grand Master of Tyrone, in the Chair, the following address and resolutions were adopted:— TO THE ORANGEMEN OF IRELAND. Brethren,— The Committee of the Grand Lodge feel they should betray the confidence reposed in them by the Grand Lodgeof Ireland if they did not protest against the conduct imputed to some of our hitherto most confided in Members, who are alleged, in the public newspapers, to have pledged themselves to withdraw from the Orange' institution, and even to exert their influence for its suppression, in the event of the King expressing his disinclination for its conti- nuance. The grounds of this protest are contained in the last report of the Grand Lodge of Ireland, by which all our brethren who would continue in the institution are bound, until its authority shall have been abrogated by the Grand Lodge of Ireland, or by a legal enact- ment. And we would entreat the attention of the brethren at large to the following extract from that report, which certainly cannot harmonize with the opinion of any amongst us who may have pledged themselves to use their best endeavours for our destruction, or shown a discreditable alacrity to desert us:— " In the first place, to depart from our original constitution, and to adopt another name, would carry with it, especially at the present time, an appearance of conscious guilt, which would afford no little countenance to the accusations of our enemies. We never can advise the brethren to adopt any course of conduct which might give colour to the remotest implication that there was any part of their previous conduct of which they have to be ashamed." Acting on this advice, the Grand Committee most decidedly pro- test against any voluntary abandonment of the principles of our legal and constitutional order. This Committee would also entreat the attention of those brethren who are said to have thus pledged themselves to another extract from the same teport— a report, they will recollect, unanimously assented to, and signed by one of their number :— " We do think that the alarm of our over- anxious friends is mis- placed, and that joining in the outcry that has been raised against us they are unconsciously falling in with the designs of the worst enemies of the constitution." . . After a warning so clear and forcible, it is difficult to account for the line of conduct they are alleged to have adopted. The Grand Committee feel here called upon to warn the brethren at large against the novel doctrine that the mere wish of the Sovereign, expressed through his Ministers, in answer to an Address from the House of Commons, has the force of law, or can restrain the subject in the legal exercise of constitutional rights. The Orangemen of Ireland have the most sincere respect for the will of the Sovereign; but the liberty of the subject they respect still more, and they are not ashamed to confess that they will persevere in the exercise of those rights of which, while the British Constitution remains unsub- verted, they cannot be deprived save by the co- operation of the three branches of the Legislature. The Orange institution has ever been distinguished by obedience to the law, and we fearlessly promise, on behalf of our brethren, that support of, and submission to, the laws of our country shall ever characterise the members of the Orange institution. The Grand Committee cannot omit this opportunity of once more indignantly repudiating the atrocions and unfounded accusation against, their loyalty, alleged in the public newspapers to have been laid to their charge by Mr. Hume in his place in the House of Com- A 78 JOHN BULL. March 6. mons, the only fonndation for which most absnrd imputation has its existence in the bombastic correspondence of an absnrd functionary • of the English Grand Lodge. The Committee, in conclusion, earnestly entreat their brethren ail the country to observe the strictest respect for the law and the commands of the civil authorities, and to prove, by their strict preser- vation of the peace, under their new trial, that their love of order lemains unshaken. JOSEPH GREER, Chairman. IVM. SWAM, Secretary. RESOLUTION. Resolved— That the Grand Committee feel it necessary to repu- diate the imputation that the exclusive nature of the association carries with it anything of criminality; and this repudiation will be best expressed by the following extract from the last report of the Grand Committee:— " With respect to the charge of exclusiveness, we must refer the brethren to the evidence of the Rev. Mortimer O'Sullivan, before the Parliamentary Committee, for an able justification of the Protestant character of o'ur association. We shall only say at present that we should indeed be rejoiced if we had any grounds for believing that our Roman Catholic countrymen really consider it a grievance that they cannot become Orangemen while they continue under the dominion of the Church of Rome. Could we believe that such a feeling pre- rniled among them, we would have good hopes that the time is not distant when they themselves would oe convinced of the necessity for that regulation which is now made a ground for offence; and if no • such feeling prevails no grievance can be felt> and no offence should - be prevented." Resolved— It is with extreme pleasure that the Grand Committee ' Brails itself of this opportunity to express its approbation of the manly, consistent, and honourable conduct of our esteemed brother, Colonel Verner; the confidence so implicitly reposed in him has not been misplaced, and his conscientious preference of principle to expediency must confirm, though it cannot increase, the brotherly • affection and sincere respect with which he is already regarded by ' the Orangemen of Ireland. Resolved— That this Committee is most anxious to express its approbation of such others of our brethren as may have acted con- sistently with their professions, and this Committee cannot but regret that their as yet imperfect information prevents them from mention- ing by name those who may have taken the same line as our respected brother Verner has done. Resolved— That although this Committee must regret the loss of such of their brethren as shall be compelled bv any exertion of autho- rity to withdraw from the Orange institution, yet" they will part from those brethren with every feeling of brotherly regard, and shall here- after joyfully readmit them into the institution, when the authorities cease to stigmatise loyalty as a crime. ( Signed by order) WM. SWAN, G. G. S. WE presume we need not say anything about one of the eminent supporters of his MAJESTY'S Government— we mean the Right Honourable Lord TEYNHAM. His Lordship is too well known to need the smallest light upon his character. This Noble Lord, on Tuesday night, in the House of Lords, made a most violent attack on the Brighton Magis- trates. The Duke of RICHMOND gave the Noble Lord a i dressing, worthy of the days of his military glory; and his Grace was followed by Viscount STRANG FORD, whose speech, as reported, is quite worthy of record, for two reasons— the first, because it was from beginning to end the most eloquent • hypothesis we ever remember to have heard ; and the second, because, as we shall show in the sequel, the Noble Baron TEYNHAM subsequently declared he did not feel its force. Lord STRANGFORD said he would not follow the Noble Baron through his anticipatory eulogium of a Bill yet to be brought before the House, because he thought such a course extremely irregular and inconvenient. He would confine himself to the petition just pre- sented, with all the facts connected with which he had been made acquainted. What was more, he knew ( what, perhaps, the Noble Lord did not suspect that heknew) the secret history of the mode in which, and the objects for which, the petition had been got up. But a sense of what was due to the dignity of their Lordships restrained him from saying all he knew. ( Hear, hear.) When the Noble Lord grave notice of his intention to complain of the mal- administration of justice at Brighton, he concluded that, during the Noble Lord's stay there, some act of felony or fraud had been committed; that the Magistrates had suffered it to go unpunished, and had thus supplied the Noble Lord with a natural and becoming occasion of standing np in that House to vindicate the insulted law, and to arraign those through whose corruption or collision its behests had been interfered with. He was, however, happy to find that the Noble Lord's com- plaint against the Magistrates was, not that they had suffered an offender to escape, but that they had fearlessly and manfully done their duty, in endeavouring to bring the offender to justice. The Noble Lord thought it hard that the prisoner should have been committed for trial in the face of the prosecutor's subsequent declaration that he believed the goods were not taken with a felonious intention. Did the Noble Lord forget that the law had most wisely determined that the Magistrates, and not the prosecutors, shall decide upon the character of an offence, and whe- ther an offender should be committed for trial or not. If it were otherwise, what would happen ? Why, the feelings and the interests of prosecutors would be constantly practised upon, and either through false lenity or less worthy motives, they might be induced to withdraw their charges, and thus men of whose guilt no doubt could be enter- tained by any rational person would be suffered to escape. He believed that such things had actually happened. He believed that cases had occurred where prosecutors had been bribed or bought off— ( Loud cheers) • — and thus that notorious offenders had escaped all punishment, except that which to some minds was no punishment at all— the scorn and the loathing of every society in which they had yet the audacity to rear their unabashed front. ( Continued cheers.) He regretted extremely that the Noble Lord had not known, or had forgotten to inquire into, all those • circumstances of the case which had come to his knowledge, for sure he was that the Noble Lord would not then have lent the sanction of his high moral character—( Hear, hear)— and the powers of his Par- liamentary weight and talent, to the support of a case which he believed to be the most paltry and the most pitiable that had ever been suffered to weary the patience or waste the time of their Lord- ships' House.—( The speech of the Noble Viscount excited in an nnusual degree the attention of their Lordships, and was repeatedly interrupted by cheers.) Lord TEYNHAM'S mental character is so pleasantly dispos- ed, that it is impossible, except to those who, like Mr. DONL AN and a select few who know him well, to ascertain whether stupidity or anything else predominates. In order to form a judgment, we subjoin a report of the proceedings in the House of Lords on Thursday, which report we presume is the last at all likely to contain the name of Lord TEYNHAM in a prominent position:— BREACH OF PRIVILEGE. Lord TEYNHAM begged to call their Lordships' attention to a breach of privilege, to which he had been subjected. Upon the dis- cussion of the other evening with reference to the conduct of the Brighton Magistrates, a Noble Viscount was made to appear in one of the morning papers as having made a most personal and derogatory attack upon him. He knew not whether the Noble Viscount to whom lie alluded was now in his place or not, nor did he care whether he was or not— The Earl of SHAFTESRURY— Wait till he comes. Lord TEYNHAM— He should not. ( A laugh.) It was quite imma- terial to him whether the Noble Viscount was present or not. ( Oh, oh.) The Noble Viscount, forgetful of thousands upon thousands of kindness done by him to his family, had made upon him, as it ap- peared in the report to which he alluded, a most unwarrantable, gross, and unfounded attack, and he would be failing in the duty he owed to their Lordships individually, as well as to the respect he I , entertained for their privileges, if he did not formally bring it under j their notice. His complaint was a breach of the privileges of the • House committed by the Morning Post newspaper. That paper, notorious alone for the falsehood of every statement it put forth, had published a version of the Noble Viscount's speech upon the discus sion of the other evening, not only totally different from what he ! believed the Noble Viscount had said, but in every word vary- ing from the reports which appeared in the other morning papers. He knew well-- ! Lord SHAFTESB UR Y rose to order. He submitted that in the absence of the Noble Viscount to whom the Noble Lord alluded, the present complaint oughtnot to be made. ( Hear, hear.) Lord TEYNHAM, without paying attention to the call to order, was proceeding, when— The Marquess of LONDONDERRY again rose to order. The Noble Viscount alluded to would, he had no doubt, bein his place presently, and he submitted it would be but decorous to wait for his presence. ( Hear.) Lord TEYNHAM would wait the Noble Viscount's appearance, on the understanding that if he did appear before the rising of the House, he ( Lord Teynham) should be at liberty to proceed with his complaint. After tie transaction of some routine business, Lord STRANGFORD entered the House. Lord TEYNHAM seeing the Noble Viscount in his place, begged to proceed with the motion in which he had been interrupted. As a preliminary step he desired, with the permission of the House, to ask two questions of the Noble Viscount. He wished, in the first place, to know if the Noble Viscount meant to apply to him the observa- tions which had appeared attached to his name in the Morning Post of yesterday, and which he understood had been supplied to that paper by the Noble Viscount himself? He had understood the speech of the Noble Viscount of the other evening in a totally differentsense from that conveyed by the report to whichhe alluded; and he begged therefore, to ask, whether he was to take as the real sentiments of the Noble Viscount his impression of his speech, or that which the report would convey ? In other words, did the Noble Viscount mean to apply the observations as they appeared in the Morning Post, to him ? The Noble Lord resumed his seat. Visconnt Strangford did not rise. Apause of a few minutes ensued. Lord TEYNHAM— My Lords, I demand an answer to my inquiries. Lord KENYON— I rise to order. The Noble Lord was doing that which was most irregular. ( Hear, hear.) Whatever the observations of the Noble Viscount might have been they were made in the pre- sence of the Noble Lord:" had they been in any degree personal or insulting to the Noble Lord's feelings they should have been at once noticed by him. ( Hear, hear.) Certainly a more irregular question could not be put than that of asking a Noble Lord to state whether a certain report, which appeared in anewspaper, was true or false. If their Lordships were desirous of preserving the order of their pro- ceedings they should not sanction the continuance of the present dis- cussion. ( Hear.) Lord TEYNHAM thought that when the character of a member of that House was most grossly and wantonly attacked, the utmost lati- tude should be given in the interpretation of its orders. When the Noble Viscount spoke the other evening, he ( Lord Teynham) either did not perfectly hear him, or totaUy misunderstood the nature of his remarks. ( Cries of " Oh, oh.") He thought that it was due to him ( Lord Teynham) as to their Lordships that he should be per- mitted to put his question, and that the Noble Viscount should be called upon to answer it. The Noble Lord then resumed his seat, but Visconnt Strangford did not rise. After a short pause, The Marquess of WESTMINSTER rose to present a petition; when— Lord TEYNHAM, startingup, asked ifhe was not to have an answer to his question ? ( Cries of " Order of the day." J Lord ELLENBOROUGH observed that the Noble Lord's proceeding was quite out of order. It was specifically stated in the regulations of the House that no Noble Lord should require any explanation from another except for words spoken in debate; and that even in such case the explanation should be required on the moment. ( Hear, hear.) Lord TEYNHAM would have demanded an explanation upon the moment, but that he did not understand the observations of the Noble Viscount. They were, in the first place, too diplomatic for his comprehension ; and, in the second, he could not have thought that an attack upon his character would have proceeded from such a source. The Marquess of SALISBURY rose to order. Some stop should at once be put to the irregular discussion which had arisen. Lord TEYNHAM, notwithstanding the call to order, would persevere in putting the question. Once more he asked of the Noble Viscount if the uncalled- for, false, and scandalous speech—( Loud cries of " Order, order.") Lord MELBOURNE rose.— It was obvious to all that unless some degree of order Was preserved, and some attention paid to the rules of debate, it would be quite impossible for the House to proceed in the discharge of the public duties allotted to it. ( Hear.) There could be no question but that the Noble Lord was perfectly irregular in referring to observations made during a former debate. ( Cheers.) The very object of the regulation which had been alluded to was the prevention of such irregular discussions as that which had been com- menced. He therefore hoped the Noble Lord would see the pro- priety of withdrawing his question. ( Hear, hear.) Lord TEYNHAM.— After the amiable speech of the Noble Viscount —( Hear, hear)— he begged to say he felt completely satisfied, and should not trouble the House any further. ( Laughter . J H e regretted that so unworthy a Member of the House as himself—( Hear)— should have taken up even so much of their Lordships' time upon the matter, f" Hear, hear,'[ and laughter.) Here the affair ended. AVe cannot conclude this report without adding what we know to be the facts which excited the anger of the exemplary Lord TEYNHAM against the Brighton Magistrates. The facts are these:— On the 12th of January, HENRY FULLER, a fly- man, now residing at No. 14, Castle- street, and then in the employ of THOMAS DONNE, took out a summons against the Right Honourable Lord TEYNHAM, in consequence of his Lord- ship's having offered him five shillings for taking his Lordship to the house of one of his Lordship's friends in Cannon- place, and bringing his Lordship back, besides waiting for his Lord- ship upwards of two hours— the legal fare being seven shillings and three- pence. This summons for his Lordship was signed by Sir DAVID SCOTT, and was served upon the Noble Peer by one of the Hove constables of the name of KINO. On the day fixed, the fly- man appeared— not so, the Noble Baron, who absented himself from the man's demand of two shillings and three- pence by pleading the privilege of the Peerage ! The fly- man called afterwards five or six times at the Noble Lord's residence, and at last received seven shillings— the odd three- pence being still wanting— but was himself put to the expense of three shillings, being the cost of the summons and service— thus losing, for the mere honour of driving the Noble Lord to Cannon- place and back, and waiting two hours for his Lordship, no less a sum than three shillings and three- pence. In ordinary cases, where a defendant does not appear, it is the practice for the Magistrates to make an order for payment, which, if not obeyed, is followed by the- issue of a distress warrant. We have merely stated the facts, which will, if necessary, be deposed to, in order to account for the patriotic exertions of the Right Honourable Lord TEYNHAM. AVE have elsewhere expressed a most disagreeable appre- hension that Lord MELBOURNE'S high respectability will not much longer avail his party. AVe have shown in true, and, we believe, not exaggerated colours, the course his Lord- ship felt bound— we presume, under the orders of his superior — to pursue with regard to subjects of the highest impor- tance. AVe now come to the smaller matters, to which we have before alluded. AVe have frequently noticed the indignant repudiation of Lord MELBOURNE, whenever he has been accused of any sort of communication with Mr. O'CONNELL : we think it right at the moment to say nothing of the offer of the Baronetcy to Mr. RAPHAEL, nor by whose authority it was made; nor of General PALMER'S constant attentions to the worthy Ex- Sheriff, or his equally constant reports of progress to the Premier; neither do we say a word of the other letters, which, I iii spite of all the threats and menaces with which he has ] been assailed, Mr. RAPHAEL will, we have no doubt, pro- • duce before the Committee. All this we leave, until the public may properly know the facts; but we may just ask Lord MELBOURNE what he thinks of the report, which we believe to be true, that of the Members of his Lordship's Government, which never holds parlance with Mr. O'CONNELL, Mr. SPRING RICE, Sir JOHN HOBHOUSE, and Mr. POULETT THOMSON, together with Mr. EDWARD ELLICE, dined at Mr. B. GORDON'S house one day last week, to meet Mr. O'CON- NELL himself? This dinner got talked of, because Mr. O'CONNELL, since his entrance into Parliament, has never, we believe, dined in a private house in London. To Mr. O'CONNELL'S din- ing with such persons as Messrs. GORDON, THOMSON, RICE, HOBHOUSE, and Co., there can be no earthly objec- tion— they are all, as Mr. MORRISON would say, " much of a muchness"— the only thing worth noticing is, that in one of Lord MELBOURNE'S indignant orations upon pitch- touching, he disclaimed, not only for himself, but for his own peculiar tail, all sort of acquaintance with Mr. O'CONNELL and his tail; so that, if that were true— and we even yet hesitate to doubt Lord MELBOURNE— Mr. O'CONNELL is more in favour since the Carlow affair than ever. The next, last, and lowest evidence as to pitch- touching, is to be found in the following report of a meeting of the St. Pancras Vestry on Tuesday:— LOCAL MAGISTRACY. A letter was read from the Duke of PORTLAND respecting an appli- cation to his Grace by the vestry to appoint certain persons to the Magistracy. The substance of the letter was, that his Grace could not give a definite answer to the application. Mr. HYDE.— Then, you see, Mr. Douglas, you'll not get any of the gentlemen in. Mr. DOUGLAS.— Oh yes, we shall. Mr. HYDE.— Ytiu certainly will not. ( Oh, oh J Mr. DOUGLAS.— But we must. ( Hear, hear.) Mr. MURPHY, the musical small coal- merchant ( who was some time since recommended to his Grace by the vestry as a fit and proper person to become a- local Magistrate), said he knew that an applica- tion to the Duke would be useless ( hear)— and the application was merely a preparatory step to speaking to the Government upon the subject ( hear); therefore, now that they had his Grace's answer, they knew he either expected to be called upon to resign ( hear ana cheers), or that he didn't mean to do anything at all for them ( hear); so he should move that a deputation wait upon Lord Mel- bourre on the subject ( cheers); for he should way, from Melbourne's speech of yesterday week, that some good might be done. ( Hear, hear.) Lord Melbourne was already for them, and prepared with the corres- pondence that had taken place between Hume and Lord John Russell upon the subject. ( Hear.) And he could also tell . them that he had the names too of all those gentlemen that were submitted to the Duke of Portland ( hear, hear); and Lord Melbourne was now ready to take a bold step to destroy the attempt of the Tories to maintain a Tory Magistracy in this and all other counties. ( Loud Gheers.) Mr. HYDE had to congratulate the vestry that Mr. Murphy was in direct communication withjiis Majesty's " Ministers ( hear.), and that he could appear before them and state what the views of Lord Mel- bourne were. (" Hear, hear.) He doubted not that this would lead to Mr. Murphy's representing, along with his friend Sir Samuel Whalley, the great borough of Marylebone. ( Hear, hear, and cheers.) Mr. MURTHY'S motion for a deputation was seconded and carried sub silentio. AVEST INDIES. AVe have received Jamaica papers up to the 24th of Janu- ary. Our private letters are full of complaints of the negli- gence and inefficiency of the apprentices, and the consequent dirty state of the coffee- fields. The increased hardship on the planter by the beneficial change for which he is supposed to be compensated, and for which compensation the mother country has been relieved of twenty millions of money, may be pretty fairly ascertained from the fact, that, in one parish alone, the apprentices have received for what the law terms extra time during the crop, upwards of three thousand pounds. On the 11th of January a public dinner was given to Messrs. BARRETT and MANDERSON, representatives of the parish, at which upwards of 140 gentlemen sat down. As the speech of Mr. BARRETT, who, as our readers know, is Speaker of the House of Assembly, appears to contain a clearer and more succinct account of the state of Jamaica politics, than could be derived from any other source, we give it as we find it reported. Upon Mr. BARRETT'S rising to return thanks, the cheering was renewed with so much ardour as to prevent him from speaking for some minutes. Silence having at length been obtained, the Hon. Member pro- ceeded to address the company nearly as follows:— Gentlemen.— After a residence of twenty- six years, and twenty- one years of service to you, when mv public life and my private life has been open to you all, I am proud that you still repose your confi- dence in me, and that you have assembled here to express your zeal in my favour. ( Loud cheers.) It is not a party feeling. Iam not, and never have been, the leader or follower of any party, but the friend and inhabitant of Jamaica. I have never had any other coun- trv but thi3. I have ho love for any other country butthis. I owe no other anyallegiance save with our fellow- subjects in England. I have no wealth but what is in this country, and no desire but for its interests. I have the pleasure now of seeing what was my ever earnest desire, men of all complexions received in society. From the time I com- menced my public life as the friend of Jamaica, I saw the necesiityof this measure. I foresaw that to be prosperous we must be united. That we must do away with all those dangerous distinctions of class to make the people powerful. I saw the policy of such a course, because no particular class was strong enough in numbers and in respectability to protect itself and rule the country. 1 saw it was necessary to enable us to defend ourselves from the encroachments that would come upon us from other quarters. I saw that there was but one legitimate ground of distinction; and that is the possession of talent and property, It is to this, and this alone, respect should be paid. If ever union was indispensable to this country it is now. I never new a period in the history of the country when there was such a necessity for the adoption of united measures for its preserva- tion as now, and therefore hope that the feeling of mutual interest will be long continued. The House of Assembly is composed of the representatives of the . island, and I do not remember a House of As- sembly the Members of which differ so slightly as in the present one. They have but one object in view, and that is to preserve the welfare of this island. You all know that there was lately a dissolution of the House of Assembly, in consequence of a difference of opinion be- tween the members and the Marquess of Sligo. ( Hear.) If you require any apology for having elected so humble an individual as myself for one of your Representatives in the new House of As- sembly, you have it in the fact that, without any personal acquaint- ance, without any solicitation, with no other recommendation bui my conduct in the House of Assembly, where I was Speaker, fifteei parishes were ready to do me the honour to elect me their Repre sentative. That the. last House of Assembly did their duty is thi general sense of society. I am sure you will pardon me for having t strong feeling in favour of that House, over whose deliberations . had the honour of presiding. That House was dissolved becauss the Marquess of Sligo ( and I wish to speak of him with the greateit respect) considered that many measures were necessary tor ths well- being of his Government, to which that House would n<± consent. These measures were five in number, and it must ap- pear strange to the freeholders of St. James that of these hw questions, for the discussion of which the House ot Assembjr were called together at. this unusual period ol the year, tvK> were altogether omitted in the address of the Marquess of Slip to the new House. ( Cheers.) One of these was the cage if the Caymanas. It was recommended to us by the Marquess of blip that we should take into consideration the propriety of bringing tig Caymanas into a legislative union with us. Had we adopted this ve should have been obliged to give to a country, which is almost ma. state of barbarism, though at the same time I believe in a state it. March 6. ' JifO HN BULL. the people. T ® y matter was brought before the House of Commons and thus placed'before the world, and the grievance was redressed, but with us, our grievances are merely noticed in the island press. ( Cheers.) You have one means ot redress which has been passed over, and that is to petition and address the House of Commons. A petition, backed by the whole force of this colony, could not be passed over, but the House of Assembly cannot do that without a sacrifice of their rights. I was once told that the Assembly of Jamaica had too much power. fCheers. J You are without a representative in the House of Commons, though many smaller and more insignificant colonies have theirs, and in that House you must make your stand. The majority of that House know nothing of this island; they are unacquainted with your interests, because you have no one to stand up for you and your rights. ( Cheers.) The Canadas, by means of their agents m Parliament, have made themselves heard. Mr. Labouchere, who preented Mr. Roebuck as agent for those colonies, is now a Minister— not certainly in the Cabi- net, but nearly connected with it, and he raised himself to that station by this connexion with Canada. There was a meeting held in Lower Canada, at which resolutions little short of treason were adopted, calling on the people to resist the Government if certain mea- sures were not adopted, and nothing was said to them, because they had their advocates in the House of Commons. The Hon. Member continued for a short time to expatiate on the advantages to be gained by this island having an influential organ in the Lower House, and concluded his splendid oration by saying that nothing now remained for him but to return them his thanks for the honour done him and his Honourable Colleague, and wishing the assembled company every happiness and success in life. The Hon. Member then sat down amidst the loudest plaudits. It is impossible for us, hasty has our report necessarily has been, to give an adequate description of the enthusiasm with which every portion of the Hon. Gentleman's speech was received. Suffice it to say that nothing could exceed it. As we have already said, this speech contains, and so dis tinctly exhibits the whole pith and spirit of the differences which exist between the colony and its Governors at home and abroad, that we abstain from making any other extract connected with the questions at issue, either from our own private letters, or the file of newspapers which we have re- ceived. 79 considerable happiness, all the buildings and institutions of which they are now in want. This was not assented to, and Lord Sligo omitted it in his late opening speech. Another point was the endea- vour to give his Excellency access to the correspondence with the ngent. The Marqness of Sligo thought that a legislative enactment should be passed to give him access to the correspondence with the agent in London. This has not been touched on in the speech to the present House of Assembly, and I am dwelling on this matter because it was the cause of putting the country to the expense and trouble of a new election. The Immigration Bill was recommended to the new House, and the House has passed the Bill, but so passed it as not to please the higher powers, and in fact that Bill will not become law. There was another question to which the attention of the'House of Assembly was called— the Acts in aid of the Abolition Act. One of them had been in force for about a year and a half. This had drawn the particular attention of his Majesty's Government, the second Act had been disallowed, and both were brought before the House during this session. The House passed an Act uniting the two, but that also is not likely to become the law of the land. I must confess that I cannot regret it, but the reason why that Act will not become law is, that it was the intention of Government that the stipendiaries should continue to have the power of oppressing the inhabitants of this country, and that if they were prosecuted at law their costs should be trebled and thrown on you. The House of Assembly made one blunder, but they were not disposed to repeat it, and for this the law, will be refused. There was one more recommendation in the speech of August last, and that was the Police Bill. The House of Assembly, for the preservation of the lives and property of his Majesty's subjects, passed a Police Bill. But his Majesty's Government will not be satisfied with a Police Bill from year to year. They have expressed their desire to the House of Assembly that it should " be continued during the term of apprentice- ship. It would have been to their eternal disgrace if the House of Assembly had consented to the demand of the mother country, that they should pass this Bill forfive years. You would have had a standing army. The House refused to maintain a standing army, but will maintain a police. Had the House of Assembly passed the Bill for five years there would have been no occasion for his Majesty's troops. ( Loud cheering.) The Gentlemen in this country feel themselves sufficiently strong to defend themselves. The police may be useful; but let it be proclaimed as you- r opinion that you would rather dispense with them than have them drilled into a regular force. It is evident from the speeches of the Marquess of Sligo— for I cannot compliment him as a perfect statesman— it is not difficult to see from the anxiety he has expressed on the necessity of having non- commissioned officers from the mother country to promote the discipline of the band, that it is his intention to make them a regular disciplined force; and that done, you will have this body of men in place of the legitimate garrison of his Majesty's forces, for which you have so many years paid a considerable sum. ( Cheers.) I am'now in thepresence of the tax- payers and free- holders of St. James's. You are paying as your proportion of the cost of the police force a sum of from 7,0001. to 8,0001. a year. This sum is for the support of the police iu this parish, and I wish to know, if yoH had that amount to use in the way you may think proper, or at the disposal of your vestry, whether yon could not make a better use of it than by supporting" such a body of police as has been sent among you? ( Loud and long- repeated cheering.) We might doit for a little part of that money, and could protect our properties much better than is now done by that boasted police. I wish for your attention while I say a word or two with respect to the Bill I referred to just now— I mean the Immigration Bill. I am sure that that Bill will not become law, and that is, because it was the desire of your Representatives that all the property forfeited under the ,18th clause should come under their own control. It is presumed that you wish that your Representatives should have the control of all the funds appropriated to the public service. ( Cries of " Cer- tainly.") You are well aware that all the lands in the island were distributed to the first colonists of the island. They were dis- tributed on certain conditions, which were the payment of certain small sums, for quit rents, and the employment on them of a certain number of negro slaves. If there is any crime in the possession of slaves, although, they have now passed from us, it was no fault of ours, but of the mother country. This island was conquered by our ancestors, but, according to the remains of the feudal system, the lands were claimed by the Crown, and those lands were granted on condition that they ' should be cultivated bv negro slaves. It is for- that, that we have been held in such esteemby the mother country; but the fault is theirs. There is a quit rent levied on those lands to be applied to the general purposes of the Government. There is also a land tax laid by the Assembly— perhaps half the lands in the island have, by failure of the condition on which they were patented, devolved on the Crown. But the public of Jamaica have also a lieu for the land tax, which, exclusive of the quit rent, these lands are liable to by Acts of Assembly. The public has been com- pelled to pay out of their funds the portion of the general taxation • which has been withheld either by the fraud or poverty of the de- faulting landowners. A clause was introduced into the Immigration Bill for resuming that land, and declaring it should become the pro- perty of the country if the proprietors did not come forward and pay the land tax and quit rents due for twenty years. In doing this the Assembly had no wish to infringe on the prerogative of the Crown; they desired that the proceeds should be applied to the service of the people, under the control of their representatives. But the Coun- cil thought differently, and vested this money in the hands of the Governor, and by- so doing have ensured the rejection of the Bill. You will observe Lord Sligo calls on the Legislature to pass laws for the protection of Immigration. He made the delay of such laws for a few weeks one pretext for dissolving the late House. Yet he had used his influence with the Council to make such an alte- ration in our Bill as will certainly cause its failure. I have heard it said, that if the House of Assembly maintain their privileges, neces- sary for the safety of all, there never will be another House of As- sembly called together. It is strange, indeed, if the House of As- sembly is to be destroyed because they maintain their own privileges, and refuse to pass a Police Bill for five years.. The power is to be taken from the Assembly, and is to be vested in the Council. ( Loud cries of " Never, never, never.") There can be no doubt that no Gentleman would like to see the House of Assembly deprived of their right, and see the collecting constable demanding contributions with no other authority to enforce its payment than the name of the Clerk of the Council. You may rely on it that you will have a House of Assembly as long as you have a Government. I am sure that no man of spirit will pay any tax that is not voted by his own Represen- tatives. You have heard of the Council Fund which consists of 10,000/. a year. Such a fund would go a very short way in maintain- ing a police, paying the garrison, the Governor, and perhaps them- selves. But it is strange that they should attempt to terrify us. Tho consent of the British House of Commons is necessary to destroy the Jamaica House of Commons, and it is beyond reason to suppose that any Minister could dare to make, such a proposition to that House. It is very strange that the people of England, with a great deal of provocation, have not said a word of doing away with their House of Commons. Not a word is said of doing away with their Representatives, but they want to get rid of their Council— they want to get rid of their House of Lords. Now, the House of Lords, or British Council, is not composed of at least one- half employees in the pay of Government. If our Council disapprove of the measures of the Government they dare not oppose them, but the British House of Lords is composea of men of great property and power— yet there is no doubt that if one body must give way it will not be the Repre- sentatives of the people. Neither will they be made to yield to the Council in this country. ( Loud cheering.) I have only one more topic, and I beg your most serious attention to it. I allude to it, be- cause in the report of Lord Sligo you are stigmatised as being the most cruel persons in the island. Were we deserving of the charac- ter ascribed to us by Lord Sligo we should be unworthy of all coun- tenance. But the charge is made to suit the purposes of a Govern- ment who are hostile to the well- being of Jamaica. ( Cheers.) We hive now a Government of expediency— nothing more. The G overn- ment is keptin office by a small majority in the House of Commons. They cannot bring forward one measure in that House that they can w; th certainty carry. All mischief and all good proceeds from the House of Commons; any Government must depend upon their plea- su- e. It is to that House we must look for benefits and for evils, ye; we have no voice therein. We have now no voice therein. How long is this state of things to continue ? All the other colonies have thar friends to represent their wants in Parliament. The Canadas haw; Mr. Roebuck ( the Member for Bath) and Mr. Hume. Sir John Ried seems to defend the Mauritius. Mr. Bulwer has Botany Bay under his protection. Mr. Roebuck was a man of but little or no interest in that House ; he was scarcely listened to until he appeared as the Representative of a great colony. It was but the other day that an individual in one of | the colonies made use of his power as a Judge, perhaps strictly I speaking within the law, but quite contrary to the general feeling of i The party at Strathfieldsaye, on Friday se'nnight, to meet the Judges, consisted of 36; of whom nearly the whole were lodged in the house. In the course of Saturday forenoon the Judges departed for Winchester, and most of the company separated. The Marchioness of LONDONDERRY was safely delivered of a son at Holdernesse House on the 29th of February. Captain STANHOPE, R.

P., officiate as joint Secretaries to the Board of Commissioners. ROBERT W. HAY, Esq., has retired from the office of Under Secre- tary of State for the Colonial Department, in consequence of the new arrangements recently made by Lord GLENELG. Mr. HAY was ap- pointed Under Secretary ( in which he has been succeeded by Mr. STEPHEN) by the late Earl BATHURST. The honour of Knighthood has been conferred upon Capt. H ENRY HART, R. N., and Major- General C. W. MAXWELL. JOHN BOLTON, Esq., of Liverpool and Storrs, last week divided the sum of 2,000 guineas amongst the charities of that town. The Infirmary received 5001.; the Dispensaries, 3001.; the Blue Coat Hospital, 4001.; the Blind School, 3001.; the Deaf and Dumb School, 1001.; and the Seamen's Hospital, 2001. ECCLESIASTICAL INTELLIGENCE. PREFERMENTS, APPOINTMENTS, & c. The Gazette of Friday notifies that the King has been pleased to order a conge d'elire to pass the Great Seal, empowering the Dean and Chapter of the Cathedral Church of Durham to elect a Bishop of that See, the same being void by the death of the Right Rev.

George Biggs, Rector of Upton Warren, Worcestershire, and the Vicar of Halesowen, Salop. The death of the Rev. Gentleman was very sudden. While walking along the Oldswinford road, near Stourbridge, he was met by a friend, who invited him to take a seat in his carriage ; he did so, appear- ing at the time in good health ; but had scarcely sat down when his head fell, and he became insensible. His friend drove with all speed to the residence of Mr. Bigg's sister at Pedmore ; but before he arrived there, he was a corpse ! It is supposed that an affection of the heart caused his death; he had just previously been walking up hill. At Gloucester, aged 63, the Rev. Richard Salloway Skillern, for twenty years Master of Crypt Grammar School, and late Vicar of Chipping Norton, in the county of Oxford. At Torquay, the Rev. Alfred Menzies, Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford, aged 26 years.

MISCELLANEOUS. At a meeting of the National Society for the education of the poor & c., holden at the Central School, ' Westminster, on the 2d inst., there were present— the Lords Bishops of Bangor, St. Asaph, Bath and Wells, and Landaff; Lord Kenyon, Joshua Watson, Esq., James Trimmer, Esq., Rev. Dr. Walmsley, Rev. H. H. Norris, Richard Twining, Esq., and Rev. J. C. Wigram. The Rev. J. HUTCHINS, Curate of St. Anne's Church, St. Anne's- lane, has been presented with a set of robes by the ladies of his congregation who are not parishioners, in token of their high appro- bation of his attention to their welfare, and as a testimony of his public and private worth. Among the many ecclesiastical questions which are likely to occupy the attention of next Assembly, one of vast importance, in all its bearings, is that of the proposed union of the Synod of LJlster with the Church of Scotland. While other bodies are combining, by a com- promise of all principle, against the Established Church, this will be a union on the ground of principle, by which the great cause of scrip- tural truth will" be promoted, and the interests of both the uniting parties mightily strengthened and advanced. The Synod of Ulster should ever have been regarded a part and parcel of the Presbyterian Church of Scotland. Arid when we consider the position which that Synod has now begun to occupy— its reformation spirit— its rising missionary zeal— its noble contendings for the truth— its services in the cause of Protestantism in Ireland, which have gone far to preserve that country from an entire Popish ascendancy, and a disunion with Great Britain— we see results likely to arise from its increased power and influence, in connection with the mother Church, which may yet affect the destinies not only of Ireland but of the empire. The subject has not yet attracted, in proportion to its importance, the attention of our Ecclesiastical Courts.— Scottish Guardian. The Radicals have lately sustained a signal defeat in the large parish of St. George- in- the- East; the motion for a penny Church rate, which they resisted, having, after three days' polling, during which the Radicals placarded and agitated the parish by every means in their power, been carried by a majority of 230. The majority would have been much greater if the friends of the Church had can- vassed the parish, which they neglected to do. The Leeds Intelligencer of Saturday contains a report of the pro- ceedings at the Court House to increase the Church accommodation in that town. A fund of 10,0001. is to be raised for that purpose. Mr. CHRISTOPHER BECKETT, Mr. WILLIAM BECKETT, and two Misses BECKETT subscribe no less than 7001.; and a great many others have attached to their names the most liberal sums. THE MANCHESTER CHURCH SOCIETY.— The auspicious commence- ment of the proceedings of this society, augurs most favourably for its success. At the first meeting, held on Monday, for the purpose of opening a subscription to carry the objects of the society into effect, upwards of 4,0001. were subscribed, and the amount of'dona- tions now exceeds 6,4001. The establishment of such an institution is honourable to the town; let the example which Manchester has thus set to other large and populous places, be made still more con- spicuous by the amount of donations and subscriptions by which the society is supported.— Manchester Courier. The consecration of the beautiful little Church which has just been erected in the village of Knotty Ash, near Liverpool, took place on Thursday the 18th mst., by Dr. SUMNER, the Lord Bishop of Ches- ter. It is built in the Gothic style, of red stone, and the erection has cost near 6,0001. The Rev. JOSHUA HART, Curate of Knaresborough, on his return from receiving Priest's Orders at Chester, was last week presented by the senior Churchwarden, in the name of the donors, consisting of every class of Church attendants, with a purse containing 1001., the produce of a spontaneous and free gift, as a token of the high esteem they entertain for him as a preacher of Christ's Holy Gospel, and in testimony of their approbation for his attention and labours among the poor. The inhabitants and congregation attending tho Church at Ower Moigne, Dorset, have presented to the Rev. GEORGE MAXWELL, the highly respected Curate of that parish for the last nine years, an elegant silver tea- pot and cream- jug as a mark of their esteem. The Vice- Chancellor has granted an injunction, restraining the Dean of Windsor and Wolverhampton from licensing the Rev. H. S. FLETCHER to the Perpetual Curacy of St. Leonard's, Bilston. The injunction was obtained on the ground of the election not being con- ducted in the accustomed manner. The Lord Bishop of the Diocese has licensed the Rev. G. WHITE, of Darlaston, to be stipendiary Curate during the vacancy occasioned by the legal proceedings. A meeting of the parishioners of Buckland, near Dover, was called on Friday se'nnight at the Vestry- room, to make a Church- rate, and upon other business. A few of the worst of the parishioners ( i. e. Radicals,) were determined to upset the meeting, and therefore mus- tered what force they could, and prior to the hour appointed, eleven o'clock, assembled in Vestry, nominated a chairman, and proceeded to enter into resolutions, and before the Churchwardens or any other person than one solitary Conservative, who protested against the proceedings, had arrived, carried a vote that a Church- rate was unne- cessary and inexpedient ( as no doubt they thought the Church), and that the making thereof be deferred to that day six months. The worthies then dispersed in high glee. The meeting, however, being illegal, fresh notice was given for another meeting, and notwithstand- ing the Rads did all they could to bring together their friends, the Conservatives carried their measure by 29 against 14, much to the chagrin of the former. 80 Iiauk Long Annuities, Bank Stock, India Stock, Exchequer Bills, 19 21 India Bonds, 4 6 STOCK EXCHANGE.— SATURDAY. There has been much heaviness in the Consol Market dnring the last few days, and Consols for the Account are at 91 % X ; and of Money, at 91% Exchequer Bills are 19 to 21; and India Bonds are 4 to 6. . In the Foreign Market there has been a perfect panic in the Peninsula Bonds, particularly in Portuguese Bonds, which yesterday fell to 77, a fall about 5 per Cent, within a day or two. The reaction has been to 78JK, which is the closing price of this afternoon. The Three per Cents, left off at49&. The dividends on Russian Stock ere in course of payment, and the price ex- dividend is 108%. Dutch Bonds are at 105J6 for the Five per Cents., and 535K for the Two- end- a- Half per Cents.; Belgian Bonds are at 103; and Danish 77. All the Transatlantic Bonds are very flat, and exhibit a decided tendency downward; Columbian Bonds are at 31; Chilan at 47% ; and Mexican 33 to 34. The chief speculation continues to be in Shares; the Calcutta and Saugur in particular have been in great request, as this Association has not to undergo the ordeal of Parliament, no Bill being necessary for the prosecution ofthis undertaking, whichcontinues to excite great interest among all aware of the importance of its completion; the premium is 2j£. In Greenwich Shares also there has been a great deal of business done, and an advance in the premium from 9% to 13 to 14 has taken place. One of the chief causes of this improvement has been the fact that a deputation of the Directors of the Brighton waited to- day on the London and Greenwich Railway Company, at which, arrangements were made for passing over their line as far as Deptford; the Greenwich line will now in consequence turn off at Deptford, a result not likely to be very gratifying to the people of Greenwich, whose opposition to carrying the line through that place to Gravesend has thus produced results they doubtless little ex- Sected. Great Western Shares have advanced to 46 lA per Share; tevenson's Brighton are 19 per Share; Renuie's are 356 ; and Gibbs's \ ; Preston and Wyre are 10 pm.; Deptford Pier X pm.; and most of the other schemes are very buoyant. S per Cent. Consols, 91 % & % " 1 * Ditto for Acconnt, 91%% S per Cent. Reduced, 3% per Ct. Reduced, New 3H per Cent., 100^ The intelligence from France possesses but little interest. The French Ministers have succeeded in obtaining the adjournment of the question of the Five per Cents, for a year, and also, it would Beem, in having it arranged, that the first reduction should be no more than one- half per cent. The Moniteur of Wednesday published a telegraphic despatch from Toulon, announcing the defeat of the Moors under Abdel Kaderat Tremesen. All his tents, thirty mules, and a standard, are stated to have fallen into the hands of the French Marshal. The same J ournal of Thursday contains a very long offi- cial account of the campaign of Marshal Clausel, who, as may be expected, speaks in sanguine terms of his success, but it is plain, even from his own account, that he has not been able to subdue the power opposed to him, and that his position is critical.— Another of those revolting exhibitions— execution by guillotine— took place, in Paris, on Tuesday last. The sufferer was the atrocious L'Huissier, convicted of having, while yet living, sawed a woman into pieces in his lodgings in the Rue Richelieu. The New York papers of the 10th ult. confirm the previous ac- count given of the acceptance of the mediation of Great Britain by the American Government, though not yet communicated in an offi- cial form. The remains of the venerable and highly- respected Bishop of Durham, were on Tuesday conveyed to their last resting- place in the Cathedral Church of Durham, in the following order:— The Porter of the Cathedral ; Bishop's Bedesmen, in their gowns, two and two ; Officers of the Palatinate and the See, two and two; Chief Officers, & c., of the Household; Principal Surrogate and Spi- ritual Chancellor; Mayor and Corporation; the No bility, Gentry, and other Laity, at the head of whom was Lord Ravensworth; the Constable of the Castle, C. J. Clavering, Esq.,; the High Sheriff, — Wharton, Esq.; Junior Verger of the Cathedral; King's Scholars, two and two; Masters of the Grammar School; Members of the Uni- versity ; Minor Canons; Choristers ( boys first), two and two ; Organ- ist and Precentor; Senior Verger of the Cathedral; the Dean; two Mutes; late Bishop's Chaplains; Mace- bearer, carrying the Mace and Sword of State, reversed; the Coffin, on each side of which were the pall- bearers ( Prebendaries robed), viz.— Rev. Dr. Gilly, Rev. G. Townsend, Rev. Dr. Wellesley, and Rev. J. G. Ogle; Mourners, two and two, consisting of the Rev. C. Ives, Rev. W. Ives, Rev. H. Dou- glas, Douglas Greisley, Esq., Mr. Douglas, Mr. Grant, Mr. Hodg- son, and three Medical Gentlemen; Archdeacon Thorpe; the Clergy of the Diocese, about sixty; late Bishop's servants, two and two, followed by gentlemen, tradesmen, and others. The whole was a most imposing ceremony. The Northampton Herald of yesterday says:— It gives us pleasure to state that the accounts which have been circulated in the London • and provincial journals as to the serious illness of the Bishop of Peterborough, have been greatly exaggerated. We are happy in knowing that our Venerable Diocesan, although very infirm, J is, at the present moment, in as good or even better state of health than he has enjoyed for several months. EXAMPLE FOB FATHERS.— A Correspondent of the Northampton Herald states that Sir Eardly Wilmot, M. P. for North Warwick- shire, has removed his son from Rugby School! He has also taken a younger son from the care of a gentleman engaged in preparing him for Rugby School! LIVERPOOL ORANGE INSTITUTION.— We understand the members of this body, amountingto upwards of fifteen hundred, intend to act npon the advice of the Duke ef Cumberland, and dissolve forthwith. On Wednesday last the members of the University Pitt- Club dined together at the Red Lion hotel, in this town. The room was appro- priately and tastefully decorated for the occasion with wreaths of ilowers forming the names of Pitt, Wellington, Camden, Peel, < fec. The dinner was provided by Mr. Mitchell, in his usual excellent style. The chair was taken by the President of the Club, J. J. K. Mackenzie, Esq. of Trinity college ; and A. Watson, Esq. of Corpus Christi college, the Secretary, officiated as Vice- President. The various toasts were all indicative of the strong attachment of the company to those valuable and revered institutions which the col- lective wisdom of no one age could have produced, and which bear such evident marks of the talent and caution of their framers. We need not say they were severally received with the most enthusiastic applause.— Cambridge Chronicle. Four infantry regiments are under orders for foreign service from Ireland. They will be replaced by other corps. The command of the Irish army has been now twelvemonths entrusted to Sir Edward Blakeney ; and it is understood that the arrangement of consoli- dating the Dublin district with head- quarters will be persevered in, from its efficiency and economy. The second of the new series of Classical Chamber Concerts took place on Thursday evening at Willis's Rooms. The performances, as usual, were admirable, and were greeted by the plaudits of a very numerous assemblage of subscribers. The last of the second series of these Concerts is fixed for Thursday next. DRURY LANE THEATRE.— A new " chivalric entertainment," under the title of Chevy Chase, was produced at this house on Thursday. The richness of the costumes, the skill exhibited by the horsemen, and in the management of the machinery, and the production of stage effect, were admirable— the scenery, surpassing, perhaps, everything hitherto attempted, more particularly that in which Earl Percy is represented as taking his fatal vow in Warkworth Castle, " to hunt for three summer days on Scottish ground, in despite ofhis enemy and rival TheDouglas," warden of the Scottish Marshes— the sylvan spot in • which the adverse parties encounter each other; and, after the battle, the field covered by the slain ( a moonlight scene)- all in ex- cellent keeping with the story. The music, partly original, and partly selected and arranged from old English and Scottish airs, by T. Cooke, was highly applauded— and the piece only requires a little curtailment to insure it as successful a career as its predecessors at Drury Lane. In the Court of Chancery, on Wednesday, Mr. Perry obtained an injunction to restrain a Mr. Mitchell, of Birmingham, from selling or exporting metal pens, made in violation of the plaintiff's patent rights. Mr. Perry discovered that pens, of a similar construction to his own, were selling in Paris, stamped with the word " anti- patent" m the place, and of a character like those, in which the words " double patent' were stamped on the pens manufactured by the plaintiffs nnder their patent; the plaintiffs caused inquiries to be made at Birmingham, and in February last they ascertained that the de- fendant, a pen- manufacturer, of Newhall- street, Birmingham, had made the pens complained of.

D., Illustrated with One Hundred and Forty- four Engravings by R. Westall, Esq., R. A., and J. Martin, Esq. TO THE PUBLIC. There being no good editions of the Bible with notes, except those which are sold at so high a price as to exclude the middling and poorer classes from having access to them, the first aim is to supply what has long been felt a serious desideratum. The Notes, by the Rev. Hobart Caunter, B. D., will be exclusively explanatory: some idea may be formed of their extent, when it is stated that they will contain as much matter as three ordinary- sized octavo volumes; they will be written in a plain and concise manner, so as to be intelligible to all classes of readers. The Work is published in Weekly Numbers, containing two Engravings and twelve pages of letter- press, at the low price of threepence each number, and will be completed in seventy- two, forming one splendid octavo volume. E. Churton, Public Library, 16, Holies street.

Embel- lished with Four Engravings on steel. The success of the first edition of this work has induced the publisher to give the present in a cheaper form, so as to render the information it contains regard- ing a portion of the British Empire, yet but little known to the public at large, accessible to every class of readers. As some censure has been very properly cast upon certain allusions to religion made by Jacquemont, in the confidential inter- course of friendship, and without the remotest view of publication, all such offensive passages, and a few more of details not strictly delicate, have been ex- punged from the present edition. The translation has also been carefully revised, and most of it retranslated by a literary gentleman, known to be well acquainted with the French language. The publisher anxionsly trusts that this endeavour to place these interesting letters before the public in an unobjectionable form, and at one- third of the price usually charged for such works, will meet with suffi- cient encouragement to indemnify him^ or the considerable outlay he has incurred to do justice to the undertaking.

" Evidently the work of a person of various and extraordinary intellectual gifts. He is a close observer of character and manners, with a strong sense of the ridicu- lous and a graphic faculty of placing in the most whimsical and amusing lights the follies and absurdities of human nature. He has the power, too, of producing tears as well as laughter. His pictures of the vices and wretchedness which abound in this vast city, are sufficient to strike to the heart of the most careless and insensible reader. The book is richly illustrated by the modern Hogarth, George Cruikshank, who has evidently surpassed any of his previous efforts."— Morning Chronicle. John Macrone. St. James's- square.
